Having gained independence in 1991 following the breakup of the Soviet Union, Uzbekistan is a young country. But the roots of this vast land are ancient.
For centuries, this area of land was a major crossroads along the Silk Road – an age-old trading route that stretched all the way from China to the Mediterranean. Samarkand, one of three major cities dotted along the road, contains so many architectural feats from this period that it has been classed entirely as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. See for yourself at the Registan, a wide plaza bordered by three mosaic-covered madrassas (religious schools) with bright turquoise domes. To the west, Bukhara offers similarly impressive landmarks, including the ruins of a 5th-century royal compound known as the Ark, while the walled city of Khiva further north is the most remote but best-preserved of the Silk Road cities. Here you’ll find stunning mosques, mausoleums and palaces towering over a labyrinth of streets. But there’s more to Uzbekistan than ancient history. Tashkent, the urban capital in the eastern region, is refreshingly cosmopolitan, while in the far north you can visit the Aral Sea – formerly one of the world’s largest lakes now on the verge of disappearing completely.
Hotels and guesthouses are aplenty in the capital, as well as in the Silk Road cities. Accommodation is quite limited elsewhere.

Guest review
My partner and I only stayed at this hotel for 1 night. The room was comfortable and very clean, the bed was also very comfortable and we had a good night sleep. The hotel and the rooms has very new furniture and modern design which adds to the experience. We managed to check in a bit earlier as the room was available, paid cash and had a good rest. The breakfast was also good, with a wide choice of savory and sweet options. I also ordered food in my room for dinner and it was served very fast and it was delicious.

Guest review
Fantastic place with very attentive staff. It's simple but the staff takes care of you and the rooms are clean and well equipped. The beds are comfortable and it is just renovated. There is a rich breakfast and they have very flexible policies great for people that are here on business trips and don't have fixed timetables. They gave me an upgrade without me asking and the room was very spacious! The manager speaks fluent English and is very welcoming.
