Hotel 2-Star di Bukhara Region, Uzbekistan

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Boutique Old City, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip. Perfectly located in the heart of the old town, the hotel offers convenient access to major historical attractions, local restaurants, and vibrant الأسواق, all within walking distance. This made it incredibly easy to explore the cultural charm of the city without needing transportation. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the warm hospitality of the staff. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, and the team went out of their way to ensure I felt welcomed. They were always ready to assist with recommendations, directions, and even small personal requests, which added a thoughtful touch to the overall experience. The room itself was beautifully designed, blending traditional aesthetics with modern comfort. It was clean, cozy, and well-maintained, with attention to detail in both décor and amenities. The bed was especially comfortable, ensuring a restful night’s sleep after long days of sightseeing. I also appreciated the quiet atmosphere despite the central location, which can often be a challenge in busy areas. One of the standout features of Boutique Old City is its charming courtyard. It provides a peaceful space to relax, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee, and soak in the historical ambiance. In the mornings, breakfast was served with a variety of local and international options. Everything was fresh and delicious, and it was a great way to start the day. Another aspect worth mentioning is the hotel’s authenticity. Unlike larger chain hotels, Boutique Old City offers a more intimate and culturally immersive experience. The architecture and interior design reflect the heritage of the region, allowing guests to feel more connected to the destination. Overall, my stay at Boutique Old City exceeded expectations. It combines excellent location, friendly service, and comfortable accommodation in a way that truly enhances the travel experience. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable and authentic stay in the old city.

Loved staying here. Excellent, yet peaceful, location right in the middle of the ‘old town’, surrounded by shops and restaurants and most , if not all , of the important sites within walking distance. Friendly service, comfortable rooms and lovely breakfast. ( note this is Rayyan 1 hotel, next to the Synagogue, not sister hotel Rayyan 2, which Yandex taxi might take you close to, but still within walking distance)

Our stay here was excellent! We decided to book this accomodation based on the other reviews, and it was even more wonderful than we thought! This is a home stay, and it was great to meet the family and speak with them. It is very close to the old city attractions, which made it so easy to walk to them. The family were lovely to us during our stay. The breakfast was extra special as our host made sure that we tried an array of dishes, and he even went out of his way to go to the market to get ingredients to prepare our breakfast. It was really lovely to go on the walking tour, we went to the summer palace and got to learn a lot about Uzbek culture during the tour. We chose to do a plov making class with the family as well, and it was the most delicious meal we had during the trip, and we really enjoyed learning how to make the dish and getting to know the family some more This stay was excellent and made us really love Bukhara, we highly recommend staying here!

Rustam the owner is very service oriented and arranged for our pick up at Bukhara Station.We had a very nice stay in his home which has ensuite bathroom in the bedroom. Dun expect hotel quality as this is homestay and with basic breakfast. It is a short walk in the mosque with 4 minarets and a 15 mins to the place where they are restaurants. Bukhara is an interesting city to visit but the food factor for Eastern Asian tourists like Japanese , Korean and Chinese food is lacking as with western cuisine though burgers and pizzas are not staple for western tourists. Overall , very happy stay with Rustam and will come back again

Warm and cozy locally run hotel. Sit perfectly in the old town . Host kindly arrange car pick up from train station and the car stopped just in front of the hotel (not all hotels are accessible by car in the old town as the area is protected . Many visitors need to drag their luggage for some distance or pay a golf car) . It might not be the big chain hotel but every gesture is sweet and warm . In my departure day it was so early , the host still arranged a car transfer plus a package breakfast for my journey. Very worth with the price and definitely recommend.

This is a hotel with both youth hostels and homestays. There are hotel signs hanging in the B&B with several rooms here. Facilities: rudimentary Hygiene: Just like hotels in small cities in the mainland Environment: Outside the old city, across the street from the old city. Walk to the center of the old city for about 10 minutes (Buhara is actually not big), and you can reach most of the attractions in the old city withinRMB10 by taxi software. Service: There is breakfast, it is a set meal. Generally, fried eggs and wontons, there is also pilaf. But a local pot of tea is a must.

Very well located next to the main minaret, and walking distance to all main spots in the old city center. Very cosy and confortable room and rich breakfast (and dinner) facing the square. The only thing you need to be careful is not too spend too much in those gorgeous bazaars nearby (I myself got two carpets and several scarves 😍🤣). Just go and have fun.

The best thing about this place is its cleanliness. We had a very comfortable four-day stay. The service was attentive and considerate. It's a quiet place, just a 3-5 minute walk from the old town. We had a great time exploring the old town over four days. Thank you to the owner for providing us with such a comfortable place to stay!

It’s more like a home stay where you will experience the warm welcome and hospitality of the owner and his family. The owner is immensely passionate about his country to which he made a photo book about Bukhara. The breakfast was great and rooms are clean as well, not to mention that it’s inside the old town!!

I didn't like it. The room was clean, but the courtyard wasn't. I'd clean the stairs and the chairs on the veranda, where breakfast leaves dirty stains on clothes. Breakfast was average, okay, but nothing special, mostly store-bought food. The shower stall in the room was broken, and the TV didn't work. When I contacted the receptionist, they promised to fix it, but in reality, nothing happened. It was just an oriental fairy tale. Another issue was paying the tourist tax: the website lists the price in soums, but at the hotel it's $5 with the exchange rate the receptionist wanted, plus the VAT paid upon booking. It's all pennies, essentially, but in reality, it's business as usual. And the link says it's incorrectly calculated and the reservation doesn't mean anything, as if in Uzbekistan the tourist tax is paid in dollars.
