3-Star Hotels in Samarkand

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.

Beautiful and perfect for a city trip. The hotel is conveniently located just 1km from the scenic area. I was very satisfied with my stay! The environment is elegant, the service is attentive, and the facilities are new and complete. Transportation is convenient, and there are many dining options nearby. Five-star rating, definitely worth coming back!

Beautiful hotel with a wine cellar downstairs, conveniently located 12 minutes' walk from the train station. However, it's a 20-minute taxi ride to the city center. On the downside: it was cold! There was no heating in the room, and we froze at night! (It was 10 degrees Celsius outside, so naturally, it was cold inside too). Our room faced the road, and the noise insulation was terrible! We could hear everything from the street and the corridor! There was a cigarette smell in the room! It seemed like someone had been smoking, and despite airing it out, the smell wouldn't go away! We asked to change rooms but were refused, told there were no other rooms available! Very unpleasant! We did extend our stay by 6 hours for half the price, which was a plus. Pros: The room had everything advertised, including a bathrobe – though only one, even though I booked for two people. The shower was broken; both showerheads (the rain shower too) seemed clogged, and water came out from the side on both, making it very inconvenient to shower. There were only two pillows; four would have been better. Other pros: Decent breakfast with coffee from a machine. The hotel is beautiful, and the rooms are clean and cozy. There's an ironing board and iron in the hallway. The beds are comfortable.

The hygiene was a big issue; both the room and bathroom had a strong, unpleasant odor. Being on the first floor, I could hear the front desk phone ringing clearly. Every morning, the cleaning staff would chat loudly, making it impossible to sleep. This happened for all three days of my stay. The second front desk staff member I encountered had a stern expression, I'm not sure if something was bothering her. However, the room itself was decent, and both the facilities and room felt quite new.

Excellent service, the guys at the front desk were great! The location is fantastic. Plus, if you have an electric car and stay at this hotel, you can charge it here. The cleanliness was superb, and the breakfast was delicious and definitely worth it.

Enjoy a delightful breakfast on the terrace with stunning city views. Conveniently located near major attractions, this hotel is ideal for a relaxing and authentic Samarkand experience.

I stayed at the hotel for 4 days in mid-April. I chose the location for its walking proximity to attractions. The hotel is also easy to access by car. The rooms matched the description, with good quality bedding, and the bathroom was stocked with shower gel, shampoo, and soap. However, there was a faint, peculiar smell in the bathroom, though I didn't notice it in the room itself. My room was directly opposite the stairs, and the window opened into the hallway. There's an observation deck upstairs with rooftop access, where a glass door was open, providing plenty of fresh air (see photo 3). I'd like to highlight the excellent staff performance: - The reception staff were attentive and friendly. - The breakfast staff member was also very caring. - The staff do a great job cleaning all areas.

Location of the address is inaccurate. Taxis tend to stop at opposite the road. Signage is very small. Need to pay attention to see the blue signage. I like to quietness and quaintness of this hotel, but bathroom facilities wise, it not fulfilling the basic needs of a traveller because of the shower facility. Otherwise, Environment is good, i like especially the outdoor seating space at ground floor. The hot water in the bathroom is very inconsistent. Water flow is very low from the shower head. Sometimes water get very hot and almost burnt my skin many times. Bathroom is very cramp very difficult to get even a proper shower. The staff did their best they can to clean up the place, fix the shower head and offer good service. But the facilities of the shower room needs proper maintenance and servicing, inconsistent hot water supply is frustrating.

Hotel Samarkand Ali offers a comfortable and authentic stay in the historic city of Samarkand. The location is convenient, with easy access to major attractions such as Registan Square and Shah-i-Zinda. The rooms are clean, spacious, and well-maintained, providing a relaxing environment after a long day of sightseeing. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and always willing to assist with directions or local recommendations. Breakfast is simple but enjoyable, featuring a selection of fresh bread, fruits, and traditional dishes. Overall, the hotel provides great value for money and a pleasant experience for travelers.

I didn't take pic of the room as it is basic but spacious enough. The hotel is strategically located in between various sightseeing sites. For travellers who opt for tram and bus, you choose the right location because opposite the hotel just accross the road, there is a tramvay stop and bus stop. Tramvay goes to and for the main train station if you are departing for Tashkent or Bukhara. While bus goes around the city. Take bus 22 to go around the city area such as Registan centre. Take bus 31 to and for airport. Really convenient, affordable, and I highly recommend it.
