5-Star Hotels in Samarkand Region, Uzbekistan

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.

Everything was superb! The staff, the room, the service, the pool, and the breakfasts! The room had a great shower, air conditioning, slippers, and a bathrobe. The main pool is deep, and there's a shallow one for children, with nice sun loungers. The breakfasts were varied, and the coffee was delicious. Location-wise, it's a 30-minute walk to the city center. There's also a very cozy summer garden inside the hotel.

The hotel environment was quite good, and breakfast was excellent. However, I'm not sure what to make of the staff. They seem patient when you talk to them, but they handle issues very superficially. For example, when I asked to change rooms due to noise, they immediately said the hotel was fully booked with no rooms available. But once I presented them with facts, they promptly found a room. Many things are like this: as soon as you raise a concern, they'll reject you without a second thought.

This is one of the best hotels we've experienced with Hilton, having stayed at many over several years. There's really no need to mention the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms and common areas, as it's a 5-star hotel and everything is top-notch. However, I'd like to specifically highlight the infrastructure: a wonderful outdoor pool with plenty of sun loungers, and an excellent spa complex with an indoor pool, sauna, and steam room. It's a shame that the operating hours for these great facilities are limited; I would have loved to swim in the evening after visiting all the sights. I also want to mention the stunning views from the rooms, as well as the hotel's location in general: the Silk Road district, with views of either the park or the rowing canal – it's unforgettable! The breakfast was delicious and varied, with top-quality ingredients, featuring both local specialties and European/American options (porridges, vegetables/fruits/yogurts, muesli/eggs/beef bacon/sausages - my compliments!, excellent samsa, tomatoes…). I also enjoyed the lobby bar – great local draft beer and a magnificent mojito! I highly recommend sitting there in the evening with a drink and a view of the rowing canal. All the staff are very professional and welcoming. Incidentally, they didn't forget my wife's birthday: they congratulated her, which was heartfelt and very pleasant – the cake was delicious, thank you! Overall, this is one of the best places for discerning travelers, I highly recommend it!
