Gur Emir Palace

The hotel was good generally, but it doesn't match the expectations

Best hotel i have ever stayed in central asia. Best staff. They helped us arranging a taxi to tashkent. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us

A lovely small boutique style hotel which I’d recommend to anyone visiting the city. It’s located down a small side street and so is really quiet, but it’s a fairly short and easy walk to many of the main sights. The entrance way is beautiful and the fantastic decor continues everywhere throughout, where clearly a lot of thought has gone into keeping it traditional and impressive. All the staff are really friendly and can’t do enough to help, making you feel really at home. There’s no elevators in the hotel but my room was on the ground floor overlooking the street to the front. Despite this it was perfectly quiet at night. It was one of their ‘single room’ offerings, and while not massive was perfectly adequate for a couple of nights. The bed was larger than a single but was incredibly hard, with a bedside table and electric socket at one side. TV was a decent size and there was an empty fridge and kettle on the storage unit, along with wardrobe and drawers giving ample storage space. An armchair gave an extra level of comfort to the room too. The bathroom had a decent shower with toiletries in branded dispensers on the wall, with good heat and power. There was a small shelf above the sink for storage and the towels were decent enough. The blue light wasn’t always the most practical, but the glass walls separating the bathroom area from the rest of the room meant it’s easy to get light from elsewhere, but also means you’d have to be comfortable with anyone you’re sharing t
