Khans Palace ★★★

"Good hotel, the room has great air conditioning which makes the heat in Khiva bearable. Also allows for free entry into the walled city."

Qibla Tozabog

"Good room, great buffet breakfast, swimming pool, unfortunately the wifi did not work most of the time which was inconvenient"

Arkanchi Hotel ★★★★

"Hotel was located just less than 100m from the minaret. Hotel reception was super helpful and rooms were clean"

Turon Khiva

"The hotel has a superb location right in the heart of the old town. The view from the terrace is stunning. The staff are very attentive. The room is decorated in a traditional style. I was worried that the room being next to reception would be noisy, but it wasn't a problem at all. There are no slippers or a dental kit in the room, but everything else is provided: a hairdryer, kettle, soap, and shampoos. We had an early check-out, and they even prepared a lunchbox for us."

Darvaza Boutique Hotel Khiva ★★★★

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The service was excellent from the very beginning: the staff was always kind, professional, and helpful. The hotel is new, modern, and extremely clean, with great attention to every detail. The location is also perfect, very close to the city walls and convenient for visiting the main attractions. We also really enjoyed the massage experience, which was pleasant and deeply relaxing after a long day of exploring. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort, cleanliness, and excellent service!"

Zukhro Boutique Hotel ★★★

"Excellent hotel for the price. We found this hotel after the hotel we had booked into had a problem with their drains. I hadn't realised the price - just $50 per night - when I booked. In fact, although the rooms are small the hotel looks better than that. Breakfast is excellent, and the owner, Ali, is very friendly and speaks excellent english. The bathrooms are very clean and functional but not new or modern. Location is fastastic - inside the walls of the old town."

Muso to'ra ★★★

"This hotel is inside the city walls. Being in the room made me feel claustrophobic despite their best efforts with multiple wall hanging etc trying to brighten up this very dark room. There was one small window high above the door and one in the ceiling. The room was entered through a long narrow corridor. Some clients would love this hotel, but it was not for everyone. It was very clean and the bathroom was big and very clean. There was a kettle (no tea or coffee) a fridge and air con. The water pressure very weak. There were good toiletries. There was no water when I returned to my room in the evening, and the water was off again the next morning and during the day. The water in the washbasin and shower was horrible, cloudy and not good quality. The breakfast had a good selection with a hot and cold selection. The staff in the dining area were very grumpy and unhelpful. On the second morning the breakfast was very basic, I was leaving early and they couldn’t be bothered to provide a decent breakfast for those people leaving early. Clearly they didn't want to serve those people leaving early (I only mean 30 mins earlier than the breakfasts normal opening hours!)"

Hotel Bankir Khiva ★★★

"We stayed in a premium room for 2 nights. The hotel is mostly well reconstructed, and the staff was helpful. It is only a 5-minute walk to the main entrance of old Itchan Kala. The room was okay; a large bed, enough tables for a short stay, a modern toilet, and a good shower with strong water pressure (our room was on the entrance level). The internet connection was also fine. I believe it is related to the city’s old infrastructure, but there was always a bad smell coming from the drain, especially after taking a shower. We had to open the room door and window to air out the room. The breakfast was the weak point. It was the worst breakfast we had in Uzbekistan. We went at 7:30, and the sliced fruits (banana and apple) were no longer fresh and had already turned black. The boiled eggs were cold. They also tried to serve European-style pastries, but I had the worst croissant I have ever tasted. Uzbekistan actually has very good bakeries and pastries. Instead of trying foreign products, they should focus on their local delicacies, which they can prepare much more successfully and tastefully. There were also not enough vegetables and no greens at all. They only served cucumbers, which is disappointing considering Uzbekistan has excellent vegetables and fresh herbs. During check-in, they offered cold tea/juice and nuts. The tea was tasty and refreshing, but the nuts were stale. They really need to improve the food section significantly. For our last day, since we had to leave early, they offered us a boxed breakfast during check-in and took note of it. However, at check-out, nothing was prepared. The receptionist had no idea about it, and we did not have time to wait."
