3-Star Hotels in Bukhara Region, Uzbekistan

Overall, I'm very satisfied with the value for money. I'd like to highlight three things that stood out. First, the location is excellent for exploring the Old City. If you get too hot and tired while sightseeing, you can easily pop back to your room to cool down. Also, the room is spacious and clean for the price. Walking around town, I noticed everywhere that Uzbek people really value cleanliness. Finally, the staff's hospitality is wonderful. If you can speak a little English, they'll happily help you with various requests. Some might say the breakfast has limited options. But honestly, you'll be eating plenty of meat and fats out for lunch and dinner anyway. Perhaps it's best to stick to just fruit for breakfast. During my stay, a glass partition was installed between the toilet and shower, so the issue of a wet bathroom floor is no longer a problem. Lastly, whether you use Yandex or Google Maps, they tend to show narrow alleys that cars can't actually enter. This isn't just a hassle for the driver, but also means you end up walking from an inconvenient spot. It's best to just set your destination to the nearest bus stop to the Old City from the beginning.

I chose to stay at Dunyo Palace as it had positive reviews by Trip members and it had an outdoor swimming pool. It was also great value for money for solo travellers. I arrived early than expected at check in and staff were ready to greet me! Wonderful reception staff! The hotel was bigger than expected and the reception area was very modern and clean with nicely decorated interior. I was shown to my room which was on the second floor. I stayed in a single persons room 205. It was bigger than expected with a big bathroom. There were extras like a bath, comfy chairs to chill. I had a fridge, kettle and a full size mirror. I like a full size mirror. The room also had air conditioning which was very good and very quiet. I had a view of the front of the hotel from my window that was pleasant. My room smelled very pleasant and was a non smoking room. My bed was very comfortable for my back. Breakfast was a buffet with a lot of Uzbekistan food which I had never tried before. It was a very busy breakfast area. There was a big range of different foods including fruits and cheeses. I liked the spinach parcels they were very tasty. A lot of the food was homemade. I thought it was delicious. There are a range of buses that offer great service to solo travellers arriving on the train. I caught a Marshuktra from the train station number 378. The Marshuktra dropped me at the bus stop on the road for No 1 bus that stops right outside the hotel. You can also take bus 7/33 All very easy and cheaper than a taxi. I would definitely stay at this hotel again because it has a very nice swimming pool that I used in the afternoon after a long morning sight seeing. I would highly recommend visiting Sitorai Mohi Hosa which is a short distance from the hotel and you can take bus 7/33 or walk. It’s an amazing visit if you are interested in art, culture and architecture. The hotel is very convenient for solo travellers who are a bit too old for Hostels! And like a cold swim after a long day sightseeing without breaking the piggy bank! The first pictures are of my hotel room and the front on the hotel. The other pictures relate to my visits and walks in the local area. I hope you find this helpful. I wanted to stay longer in the hotel but Trip would not provide additional extensions to my trip.

If you're visiting with the goal of seeing all the historical sights, then this hotel is definitely the one to choose! The location is perfect, and you won't need any transportation; everything is within easy walking distance. You can stroll leisurely, sit in cafes, and enjoy ice cream on a bench in the shade. The room is tastefully decorated, all the furniture and fixtures are new, there's a large TV, a kettle, water, and all bathroom amenities. I particularly want to highlight the breakfast – it's simply amazing how delicious everything is! I wholeheartedly recommend it in Bukhara! Afterwards, you can shop at the central market, which is right opposite, and enjoy shashlik and pilaf at the cafe at reasonable prices.

The front desk staff were super friendly ☺️ The rooms and courtyard are also lovely! It's less than a 5-minute walk to Lyab-i Hauz. You can even call a Yandex (taxi) right to the front of the hotel, which is very convenient!

The overall experience was good, but the overall facilities are a bit old (perhaps this is the standard in Uzbekistan), and it is a bit difficult to carry luggage without an elevator. The service attitude is polite but not very enthusiastic. It should be noted that you need to pay an additional tourist tax of about 50 RMB to get the small white receipt, and you must pay in cash, which is different from what was written on Ctrip. I am a bit speechless.

The location is excellent, just a 5-minute walk to Lyab-i Hauz Plaza, which is very convenient. Since most of Bukhara's tourist attractions are concentrated around Lyab-i Hauz, it was an ideal spot for sightseeing. There's a convenience store right nearby, making it easy to grab water and snacks. In my room, the shower water was quite lukewarm, which felt a bit chilly. Also, the bath towels were stiff and rough. The breakfast was delicious and offered a satisfying variety. I stayed during the hot summer, and since I had some time before my train, they kindly extended my check-out time by a few hours for free, which was a great help.

Our train arrived past 1 AM, but I'm so glad we chose this hotel. It felt like a tourist attraction in itself, and the spacious bathroom helped us wash away our travel fatigue. They provide shampoo, soap, and toothbrushes. I didn't see a hairdryer in the room, but I'm sure they would have provided one if I had asked. The free breakfast was fantastic, with freshly fried eggs (omelets were also an option) and fresh fruit. The cheese I tried for the first time was also delicious. The hosts and almost all the staff spoke English, which was very reassuring for us Japanese travelers. Since our train departed in the evening, we were able to leave our luggage at the front desk and enjoy a full day of sightseeing. Although the hotel is a 20-30 minute taxi ride from the station because Lyab-i Hauz is very close, I highly recommend this hotel.

A wonderful place to stay in Bukhara! ❤️ We recently stayed at Samarqand Darvoza and were very pleased with our choice. The hotel left an exceptionally positive impression. First and foremost, I want to highlight the cleanliness — the room was very tidy, clean, and cozy. After busy walks around Bukhara, it was especially pleasant to return to a comfortable room. The staff deserves special thanks 🌸 All employees were polite, friendly, and attentive; we felt genuine hospitality. And the breakfasts — that's a love all its own! ☕️🥐 Everything was delicious, fresh, and hearty, an excellent way to energize before exploring the city. Thank you, Samarqand Darvoza, for the warm welcome and pleasant atmosphere! If we find ourselves in Bukhara again, we will definitely choose this hotel. We gladly recommend it! ⭐️

receptionist was nice, and helpful upon check in. we received rooms in the first floor so dont have to carry the luggage up using stairs. dont have elevator but the staff will assist you for your luggages. AC making noise several times, but it’s not critical. experienced 2 times 1 minutes blackout but its not hotel faults as its related to the city electric consumption. near to supermarket, 600m walking distance.

Good mini hotel, friendly administrators. A minking happened, it is not clear for whom reason, but it is all ruined. There are breakfasts, cooking cashes, eggs, standard sausage cutting, east sweets, tea/coffee. If you stay at 2-3 night will not be tired if more, a lot of places where you can eat and even drink delicious coffee. The street is a little noisy, with a sensitive sleep. The mattress is as tough as everywhere in Uzbekistan. The fen is not in every room, but on request brought, hm, former. In general, everything was nice, I recommend. Not expensive and pleasant. If you buy the cheapest fans for all rooms and sleep pepper in the peppers, there will be 11 out of 10.
