2-Star Hotels in Samarkand Region, Uzbekistan

"Spacious and clean room, equipped with a fridge and kettle. The bathroom was large, and we had a room with a balcony. The host was very hospitable. There's a microwave available in the lobby. Major attractions and a market are just 500 meters away."

"The hostel is located in the Old Town, which is convenient as the bus stop is only a 3-minute walk away. However, it's situated in a small alley, and there's a stretch of road without streetlights when returning from the main square, which felt a bit unsafe at night. The owner was always helpful in solving various issues, for example, when I wanted to boil a couple of eggs in the morning. There's a water dispenser available in the common area, which is handy. The day before I checked in, guests reported no hot water, initially thinking it was due to late-night usage. The next day, it was still cold. When asked, the owner said a circuit breaker had tripped. Once fixed, the water was very hot, so it's important to report any problems promptly. It was advertised as a 4-bed dorm, but it was actually a 5-bed dorm, which was quite a surprise. The owner claimed it couldn't be changed on the platform, a reason I found hard to accept. Even if the main listing couldn't be altered, they could have added a note in the remarks section. Otherwise, it feels like deception, especially for a 'non-refundable' booking where no money is returned. This was the case for both the female and male dorms. With many guests staying, the cleanliness of the common areas struggled to keep up. Also, I didn't seem to find any lockable personal lockers. The owner, who uses a wheelchair, runs this hostel, which is commendable, and the price is good. However, the issues mentioned above do exist. Luckily, I only stayed for one night as a stopover."

"Although taxis can't pull right up to the hotel entrance, they can get very close, so it's not inconvenient at all. It's about a 5-minute walk to Registan Square, making it a very convenient hotel for sightseeing. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of dishes, including some delicious vegetable options like eggplant and cauliflower that I hadn't seen elsewhere."

"We arrived late, but check-in is 24/7. A very polite young man greeted us at the entrance, showed us everything, and explained it all. Breakfasts are modest; we only ate there once in two days. The room has everything, including slippers and disposable toothbrushes. The hotel is located near Islam Karimov Square, which is also where Registan is."

"We stayed there briefly for 2 nights and 3 days. Initially, my expectations were moderate, but the hotel definitely met them, and even exceeded them. The first thing I want to point out is how clean the rooms were. Everything was very clean; they cleaned frequently, changed towels, slippers, and other items, and replenished water supplies. Most importantly, the bathroom and toilet were spotless. You can tell by the hotel's condition that it's either new or recently renovated – everything feels fresh and looks great. The administrators, Sardor and Zhaloliddin, who work at the reception desk by the entrance, were particularly attentive and kind. The breakfasts were also good; they'd ask about our plans for the night and in the morning would inform us that breakfast was ready (there weren't many guests then) at the exact time we'd mentioned. What's more, they even set up the entire buffet just for us. Overall, it's a pleasant, good hotel with nice rooms and amenities! I think I'll return when I'm in Samarkand next time. P.S. For those planning to come by car – check if there's parking available, as there wasn't much when we were there."

"A true gem in Samarkand! The host, Sanjar, was incredibly helpful and did all he could to make me feel welcome and taken care of. The room is spacious and has a beautiful charm to it, and the location is ideal - less than 10 min to Registan and other major sites. there is also access to a kitchen and everything you need. I did feel the bed was too firm for my liking, but that is just my preference and others may enjoy that for their sleep. Overall an excellent stay and I’d happily book again."

"Cleanliness: Although the hotel is a bit old, it's incredibly clean and well-maintained. There were no strange odors inside, which shows their excellent housekeeping and odor control. The lobby always had a faint fruity scent, and our room was spotless. Facilities: The hotel breakfast was fantastic! Besides standard items like coffee, tea, milk, juice, and eggs, they offered a variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and local pastries every day. For tourists who spend their days exploring, such a high-quality breakfast is essential. The complimentary bottled water in the room daily was also very practical! Service: All hotel staff spoke fluent English and Russian, so communication was never an issue. They were polite, friendly, and always willing to help. We needed to book an English-speaking tour guide for the next day; after explaining it to the front desk, they immediately helped us contact someone and quickly finalized the booking. The day after our tour, upon returning to the hotel, the staff even followed up to ask if we were satisfied with the experience, showing truly excellent service. Environment: The hotel's location is superb, situated within a pedestrian street, making it very safe. Most major attractions are just a 10-minute walk away. There are many guesthouses and shops nearby, and a square not far off where many locals stroll and walk their children after the sunset cools down, making for a very pleasant evening walk. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with our experience at the Sangzor Hotel and highly recommend it to other visitors coming to Samarkand!"

"Highly recommended this hotel Staff are very helpful and very friendly They can speak English fluently and communicate is very well for me who can’t speak any Russian/ Uzbek languages Room are extremely clean and tidy This hotel is new . All stuffs are in very good condition."

"It's a nice hotel, new, and everything is as it should be. It smells great, and the service is excellent. There's a shop nearby. It's located in an industrial area near the Moscow Ring Road, so before booking because of the airport, check to see if it's the right airport. Overall, it's a decent hotel."
