Where to stay
We have not published individual hotels for Uzbekistan yet. This is how stays differ there, by the kind of trip.
Samarkand and BukharaArchitectureThe Registan, the Gur-e-Amir and the Shah-i-Zinda in Samarkand; the Kalyan minaret, the Ark and the trading domes in Bukhara. Two cities, four or five days, and the finest Timurid tilework anywhere. — Shah-i-Zinda is best at opening time · Bukhara’s old town is walkable throughout · Tilework photographs best in low sun
The AfrosiyobRailThe high-speed service links Tashkent, Samarkand and Bukhara comfortably and cheaply, turning what used to be long road days into a couple of hours. — Tashkent to Samarkand in around two hours · Book ahead in spring and autumn · Passport needed to buy tickets
Kyzylkum, one nightDesert & yurtsA yurt camp in the Kyzylkum between Bukhara and Samarkand, with camel rides, Aydarkul lake and genuinely dark skies. A change of pace from four days of monuments. — Best in spring and autumn · Basic but comfortable camps · Fits between the two main cities
Fergana ValleyCraftsSilk weaving at Margilan, ceramics at Rishtan and knife-making at Chust — working workshops rather than demonstrations, in the valley Babur came from. — Margilan silk uses traditional ikat methods · Rishtan ceramics are distinctively blue · A day or two out of Tashkent
We book hotels for Uzbekistan to order, around your dates, transfer and budget.
How we choose
What Makes a Hotel Unforgettable
We do not chase star ratings. A great hotel is judged on the things that linger — a genuine welcome, a true sense of place, food worth staying in for, and service that anticipates rather than reacts.
Good to Know
Frequently asked
We choose hotels for location, service and character, and for how well they fit the journey around them.
Sometimes. Where a hotel extends benefits to travel advisers — an upgrade, breakfast, a resort credit, early check-in — we pass them on, and we tell you exactly what applies when we quote your stay.
We design complete journeys, but can also arrange standalone stays for existing travellers.
Whatever the journey calls for — city hotels, resorts, villas, safari camps — matched to how you travel. Only a few are written up on this site.
