Hotels With breakfast in Samarkand Region, Uzbekistan

This traditional house, with its beautiful atrium, is nestled in an alleyway. At the entrance to the alley, there's a bakery, and you can really get a sense of local life, with residents and children playing. Despite its hidden location, it's conveniently just over a 10-minute walk to Registan Square. I booked a room with a bathtub and had no issues with the hot water or water pressure. However, just like the 4-star hotel I stayed at in central Tashkent, there was no plug for the bathtub drain. I had to improvise with a plastic bag to fill it up and take a bath. Given the country's situation with the disappearing Aral Sea, I've come to accept that Japanese expectations don't really apply here.

Beautiful hotel with a wine cellar downstairs, conveniently located 12 minutes' walk from the train station. However, it's a 20-minute taxi ride to the city center. On the downside: it was cold! There was no heating in the room, and we froze at night! (It was 10 degrees Celsius outside, so naturally, it was cold inside too). Our room faced the road, and the noise insulation was terrible! We could hear everything from the street and the corridor! There was a cigarette smell in the room! It seemed like someone had been smoking, and despite airing it out, the smell wouldn't go away! We asked to change rooms but were refused, told there were no other rooms available! Very unpleasant! We did extend our stay by 6 hours for half the price, which was a plus. Pros: The room had everything advertised, including a bathrobe – though only one, even though I booked for two people. The shower was broken; both showerheads (the rain shower too) seemed clogged, and water came out from the side on both, making it very inconvenient to shower. There were only two pillows; four would have been better. Other pros: Decent breakfast with coffee from a machine. The hotel is beautiful, and the rooms are clean and cozy. There's an ironing board and iron in the hallway. The beds are comfortable.

The location was good and the hotel was clean. Overall, I would recommend it. The staff were kind and helpful. When I arrived at the hotel with a same-day reservation, they seemed to have prepared a larger room than expected, allowing me to relax comfortably. There is no elevator, but this is a common building structure in Uzbekistan, so it wasn't a problem. The breakfast was sufficient considering it was included in the room rate. There is a currency exchange machine in the hotel, so you don't have to worry if you're short on cash. Finally, be careful with the bathroom facilities in the room.

Stayed in this hotel for two nights. Overall, it is a nice hotel, probably it was constructed a couple years ago. Breakfast was OK. The room was clean. Swimming pool is available. Location is near the canal though it’s not in the city center. If you want to visit attractions in the city, you might need to use Taxi as there is no public transport system that connects that touristic center to the city.

We were welcomed like honored guests at the hotel. Administrators Farrukh and Mamur promptly fulfilled all our requests. At breakfast, I asked if there were syrniki (cottage cheese pancakes). There weren't any that morning, but they prepared and brought them to us within 15 minutes. Utair airline delayed our flight by 11 hours, and there were no available rooms to extend our stay at the hotel, but the administrators once again ensured our wait was comfortable. We waited for our flight in the cozy hotel lobby. I'd also like to mention the hotel's location, which in our opinion, is the most convenient in Samarkand: a 5-minute walk to Registan, and excellent access to the hotel. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The hotel itself is nice. It’s in a quiet location with decent facilities. However,our room is just fair size.The breakfast was healthy with good variety, and the staff (especially the young lady serving) spoke excellent English. We enjoyed our 3-night stay until checkout. When we asked for the required proof of accommodation to leave the country, the staff told us there was a customs registration issue on our entry (which I later confirmed was false). Despite them pretending to try and fix it, we left empty-handed. Because of this delay, we missed our pre-booked coach to Bukhara and lost UZS 585,000 in total (UZS 195,000 per ticket for three people). Every other hotel we stayed at in Tashkent and Bukhara provided the E-Mehmon registration without delay. I really don't understand why this hotel makes a routine procedure such a huge technical problem. It was their mistake which caused our financial and time loss.

Pros: 1. The location is excellent, just a few steps from Registan Square – incredibly convenient! 2. The room size is reasonable, and the facilities are great. There are hot and cold water dispensers on each floor, which is very handy. The room also has a small fridge, perfect for keeping drinks cold in the summer. 3. Downstairs is the hotel's own highly-rated restaurant, and there are two other restaurants nearby, making dining incredibly convenient. There are also small shops around for buying drinks and snacks. 4. As mentioned above, since the hotel has its own restaurant, the breakfast quality goes without saying. 5. The price is reasonable; I stayed in a single room for three nights for just over 500. Cons: The room seemed to have been recently painted, as there were a few drops of paint on the windowsill and mirror.

No words can say this better than the experience I had staying in Samarkhand. I was injured during transfer from Tashkent to Samarkhand. Found myself left at the curb with a sprained knee. A pickup passed by and actually helped me although it was a busy day for him. At the hotel, a pretty receptionist named Nozima was tremendously helpful. She was an angel sent to me during my 2 nights stay at Kampoeng Indonesia. Always attending and calling in on me for any needs. She assisted me with transfers, cancellations of bookings (due to my shortened trip), calling taxi for Tashkent for my trip back, calling paramedics and most of all translating all my needs into assistance, buggy call, and not to mention 3 meals a day. My gratitude also goes to the handsome pickup guy i didnt catch his name, Ulugbek the most charming buggy guy, Xofiza my morning breakfast lady, Fazila the breakfast cook, Pak Agus the dinner chef and those I couldnt name them. My travel to Uzbekistan was memorable because of these people. And yes I would say it million times, Uzbeks are nice kindred hearted people. Very helpful and curteous too. I would come back to Kampoeng Indonesia only to thank those lovely people!! Rahmat to all of you!!

The hotel's location isn't right in the city center, but it's relatively close to the Samarkand railway station. Taking a taxi to attractions like Registan Square or Shah-i-Zinda takes only about ten minutes, so sightseeing is completely unaffected. The room is indeed small and a bit cramped, but it feels more comfortable than the photos on the booking page suggest—no disappointing ”photoshop vs. reality” gap. The shower water pressure is great, and the mattress has a nice firmness, making for a good night's sleep. Breakfast is average—filling, but nothing special. I was initially worried the room would be a letdown, but the actual experience exceeded expectations. Good value for money, and I would recommend it to travelers with a similar budget.

A good place to stay is all you needed especially if coming from Tashkent (bus ride took 5.5hrs to Samarkand) - and this hotel made it up for the long day.  The area is a bit of a walk to the attractions - but with this summer I don’t mind spending a few Uzbek SOMs for Yandex (w/c is cheap by the way). Hotel was new, spacious and clean. There’s AC to beat the heat in the city. And there’s even breakfast included at that price point and they don’t ask you to pay extra if you already consumed 2 bottled water a day. Special shoutout to their new staff, Ulugbek! He showed me what Uzbek hospitality means. Very helpful guy. And to their boss for returning the extra money I paid and for not forcing me to change room when there was a mixed up w/ the room assignments - I’m supposed to get the standard but, I was given the next tier by mistake. Thank you, Hotel Donish! - Sam, Philippines
