Hotels near Samarkand International Airport, Samarkand

I had the most amazing stay at Hilton Garden Inn Samarkand! Arrived and I was shookethd by how boujie the room was…. Super clean…. Special shoutouts to housekeeper Narmilya! She was so helpful. I met so many amazing staff at the reception too. I didn’t have the best experiences in Samarkand but they were all so lovely and made me feel safe, comfortable and welcome. Thank you especially to Sabina, Mumin, Charos, Doston, Mirali and Dimitry! I had some super helpful room service staff as well but I didn’t get their names! The food was great and affordable. If you’re coming to Samarkand as a westerner it can be a bit scary….. but the staff at HGIS made it so much easier…. I’ve never had a hotel experience where the staff have treated me so well….. I feel privileged and grateful to have met them all and received their service! Thank you HGIS! Love, Sim x

hotel was perfectly located with walking distance to many tourist attractions. The rooms are also good with all amenities. The best part is owner and the entire staff are available round the clock to ensure that their guests are well taken care off. In my case, I lost my luggage during my trip from Bukhara to Samrkand. The owner and his staff went above n beyond and within hours had it delivered to me. Once again I take this moment to thank the entire staff for their efforts. if ever i get an opportunity to visit Samarkand in future, this place is definitely going to be my place to stay.

I was a little skeptical about the actual quality of the Internet celebrity hotel at first, but from the moment I arrived, I felt that it made sense for it to be popular. The decoration is beautiful, the room is spacious and clean, the bedding is comfortable, the breakfast is rich, the staff is very friendly and the service is attentive. The location is also good, Registan Square and Bibi Khanum Mosque are within walking distance, and even Shay Zinda can be reached on foot. The only drawback is that the restaurant is relatively expensive and the taste is average.

I chose Sangzor boutique hotel after reading all the good reviews here. The pedestrian street is just at the door step. Hotel staff Sobirjon is very helpful, he showed me the tourist information centre across, a few shops away when I wanted to book a trip to cross the Samarkent border to Tajikistan. I told Azamat, the manager of the tourist information centre that I was having problems booking Yandex rides back to hotel using Sangzor boutique hotel as destination as it is on a pedestrian street and most of the time Yandex drivers dont know where to alight me. He advised me to use the big red advertisment of the restaurant name (sorry I forgot) on the back wall where Yandex drivers alight me correctly at the back, just need to walk through the opening & see the hotel across with its red carpet. I also found out from Azamat that they have student guides for the 5h old city tour US45, local guide $65 and there’s a whole day 9-5pm tour with guide & transport US115. I stayed 3 nights here, it is very convenient with the tourist information centre across. Azamat personalised an itinerary for me to Tajikistan Pangjakent & Dushanbe. I went to Hamkor Bank to withdraw USD, paid for the trip & departed the next morning! Best hotel to stay & plan last minute trips! P/S upon check out, the staff at reception passed me a slip of paper with details of my stay. I realised at the Tajikistan Panjakent border custom wants to verify my stay at Samarkent and he wants to see my registration paper!

Movenpick is the most cost-effective among the 5 hotels/guest houses we stayed in throughout Uzbekistan. The location is excellent, located at the junction of the old city and the new city, so it is very convenient to go to any attractions! The room was big and clean. Breakfast is very rich! The only drawback is that the swimming pool is very thin and is suitable for children to play in. In addition, the lockers in the locker rooms are not installed and are almost unusable😅 I only found one that can be locked.

When booking, you cannot select a bed for a child. In the hotel booking system, they see the room as for two, because children are not taken into account in their system, but at the same time you have to pay extra for the child’s bed at the hotel, although it would be more convenient to pay immediately when booking. The three of us and a 14-year-old child were accommodated in a double room. But nearby there is a town with restaurants and built. Streets near the old town. The hotel is located outside of Samarkand. There were also difficulties in calling a taxi, they told us one price, then they saw the luggage and the taxi driver added another 40%.

The hotel is relatively new and has a good environment, suitable for strolling around the park. However, the hotel is located in a park of the convention and exhibition center, with only a few hotels and restaurants. It is about half an hour's drive from Samarkand's main attractions and restaurants, but the price-performance ratio is relatively high~

Beautiful canal view

Luxurious new hotel and our room was very good , well equipped and spacious. The restaurants were also very good, whether for breakfast or for evening meals, the quality of the food served was excellent. The location was very good for us as we wanted to be away from the hustle and bustle of the sightseeing areas but within easy reach - we used Yandex which worked very well and very cheap ( 15,000 to 30,000 soms each way to the main tourist sights, railway, airport). We also prioritised modern facilities over traditional hotels but If you want a more authentic experience you may want to go elsewhere. During our stay we also used the restaurant/bar in a nearby hotel on the same site which was a short walk away which was good also. The staff were very friendly, but the service was a bit patchy. There looked as though there was still a lot of staff training going on and I’m sure this will improve with time. Our only other point is that the swimming pool was closed (pool has no water in) and we felt that we given the 5 star status we should have been advised of this. We had a very good stay and would have given 5/5 except that the price was a lot higher than other excellent hotels on our Uzbekistan trip so given the points we've raised the value was not as good.

Excellent hotel. Thank you very much to all the hotel employees, everyone was extremely friendly and polite with us: reception workers, restaurant workers, as well as maids. Special thanks to the girls from the reception: they recommended places to visit in the city, any questions were resolved very quickly. The hotel is located a little far from the city, which is an advantage for us: the air is very clean, and we sleep well, because... no noise from streets and highways. Beautiful view from the window; in the evenings we walked along the canal and enjoyed nature. Delicious breakfast!
