3-Star Hotels in Samarkand Region, Uzbekistan

This stay was absolutely fantastic! I made a mistake with my booking, but the hotel staff were incredibly patient and helped me sort everything out. They were all super friendly, helped with our luggage, and provided exceptional service. The entire hotel was spotless and very comfortable. We woke up a bit late and worried we'd miss breakfast, but it turned out the hotel offered à la carte Western breakfast and freshly ground coffee, which tasted great, and the service was really thoughtful. The location is also super convenient, very close to the train station, making getting around a breeze. I chose this place specifically because I didn't want to stay near the necropolis area; it's about 5km from the attractions, and getting a taxi was very easy. Throughout my stay, I really felt the warmth and hospitality of the people of Uzbekistan. My accommodation experience was perfect, I highly recommend it, and I'll definitely choose to stay here again next time!

Де люкса нам не досталось, его уже заселили и портье даже не обратил внимания на нашу бронь. А когда увидел, сказал: Ой, у нас нет номеров. И мы заселялись целый час. Сначала поселили в ужасно тесный маленький номер. Потом переселили в более большой стандартный номер с компенсацией за де люкс. Вообщем управление отелем из рук вон плохое. Не понравилось. Не рекомендую.

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 has an interesting interior and is conveniently located, with all attractions nearby. It's very clean and comfortable. The reception staff are always helpful with any questions and provide great advice, a big thank you to them. I especially want to thank the chefs who prepare the breakfasts; they are delicious, with fresh pastries and a variety of dishes, and they added something new every day. In the evenings, you can have tea in the dining room. My wife and I loved everything and will recommend the hotel to our friends and acquaintances. We particularly remember the breakfasts on the 'tapchan' (raised platform).

The best part of this hotel is its location: It is especially close to Hazrat Khizr mosque and Shah I Zinda, but is truly walking distance to all the main attractions in Samarkand. The room itself was fairly nice and new, but the supplied amenities felt a bit cheap - instead of bottled water, you get water in sealed plastic cups. The shampoo comes in very small 10ml bottles and there is no shower gel, just bar soap. Also, the housekeeping was very non-thorough. Even though I explicitly requested for my room to be cleaned, I came back to the room to find a half emptied rubbish bin (Why can’t they empty the whole thing?) and my hairs still on the floor of the toilet. There was a decent spread at breakfast and the taste was okay. The hotel staff are all quite nice but some of them may not speak English so well.

The room was nice and stuff of the hotel was good but even after i told in the reception to clean my room they didn’t do it. So not recommended for people who want neat and clean.

Nifal is a great new hotel. I spent 3 nights there. What you see in the pictures, is what you get, even better once you see it in person. Amazingly clean, tastefully decorated, high ceiling, two bottles of water, toothbrush, sleepers, and best of all, you’re asked to take your shoes off and place it on a shoe rack by the room. How cool is that? (speaking of cleanliness) Farrux at the front desk speaks English well, very kind and helpful young man. Breakfast is plenty full and individually served at a desire time. Kitchen staff greets you with a smile every morning. Hotel is about 10-15 minutes walk from the popular tourist attraction. Couple of restaurants close by with their specialty kebab (chicken, lamb and beef), they also serve beer and wine.

I booked a double room. Initially, the aircon in the room was ok. However, late at night, it wasn't cold anymore. The day temperature this time if the year is 39C. Told the hotel the problem. They couldn't fix the aircon and offered to change room for me. First, was a smaller room with twin beds. They say will join the beds for me. I didn't want and insisted on a double bed. But they told me I have to pay another UZS20,000. Though its cheap but I refused because of the principle. I already paid for a double room which is bigger than what they offered. I then decided to take the twin room and not pay extra. Writing this review to let others know.

Great hotel with a delicious and filling breakfast. The front desk staff are always fantastic at answering any questions, from where to go and how to get there, to where to have dinner – they know everything! We really enjoyed our stay, thank you! ☀️

The hotel's location is excellent; you can walk to various tourist attractions. When I arrived early, the staff helped coordinate an early check-in, and I was quickly settled into this hotel with a lot of local character. The environment is great.
