Hotéis 3-Star em Samarkand Region, Uzbekistan

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.

Де люкса нам не досталось, его уже заселили и портье даже не обратил внимания на нашу бронь. А когда увидел, сказал: Ой, у нас нет номеров. И мы заселялись целый час. Сначала поселили в ужасно тесный маленький номер. Потом переселили в более большой стандартный номер с компенсацией за де люкс. Вообщем управление отелем из рук вон плохое. Не понравилось. Не рекомендую.

No words can say this better than the experience I had staying in Samarkhand. I was injured during transfer from Tashkent to Samarkhand. Found myself left at the curb with a sprained knee. A pickup passed by and actually helped me although it was a busy day for him. At the hotel, a pretty receptionist named Nozima was tremendously helpful. She was an angel sent to me during my 2 nights stay at Kampoeng Indonesia. Always attending and calling in on me for any needs. She assisted me with transfers, cancellations of bookings (due to my shortened trip), calling taxi for Tashkent for my trip back, calling paramedics and most of all translating all my needs into assistance, buggy call, and not to mention 3 meals a day. My gratitude also goes to the handsome pickup guy i didnt catch his name, Ulugbek the most charming buggy guy, Xofiza my morning breakfast lady, Fazila the breakfast cook, Pak Agus the dinner chef and those I couldnt name them. My travel to Uzbekistan was memorable because of these people. And yes I would say it million times, Uzbeks are nice kindred hearted people. Very helpful and curteous too. I would come back to Kampoeng Indonesia only to thank those lovely people!! Rahmat to all of you!!

The hotel is conveniently located within a 20-30 minute walk to major downtown attractions, and there are shops within a 5-minute walk. The hotel and rooms are clean, and the atmosphere is pleasant. The buffet breakfast is also delicious. There was a power outage from evening until morning, but the staff provided support by charging devices like chargers from a backup power source.

The best part of this hotel is its location: It is especially close to Hazrat Khizr mosque and Shah I Zinda, but is truly walking distance to all the main attractions in Samarkand. The room itself was fairly nice and new, but the supplied amenities felt a bit cheap - instead of bottled water, you get water in sealed plastic cups. The shampoo comes in very small 10ml bottles and there is no shower gel, just bar soap. Also, the housekeeping was very non-thorough. Even though I explicitly requested for my room to be cleaned, I came back to the room to find a half emptied rubbish bin (Why can’t they empty the whole thing?) and my hairs still on the floor of the toilet. There was a decent spread at breakfast and the taste was okay. The hotel staff are all quite nice but some of them may not speak English so well.

The room was nice and stuff of the hotel was good but even after i told in the reception to clean my room they didn’t do it. So not recommended for people who want neat and clean.

If we disregard some ”minor issues,” the hotel is generally not bad: 1. During my two-day stay, there were three power outages. The first was just as I was about to take a shower (I'm so glad I hadn't started showering yet). The second was after a brief power outage. The third was the most frustrating. After a long day of hiking, I returned to my room exhausted to find it completely dark, with no switches or air conditioning working… It took a long time for a staff member to see me and turn the power back on… Apparently, they deliberately cut off my room's power. How ”environmentally conscious” they are! 2. This is a family-run guesthouse, so I wasn't expecting a hotel-style welcome. However, their service attitude still made me feel uncomfortable… From check-in to check-out, even when they asked for a positive review, everyone had a cold face towards me, making me constantly wonder if I owed them money or if I was just too ugly… Perhaps it was a culture shock? But of all the countries I've visited, only the staff here are so ”solemn and dignified”... Very well... If this is how you treat your guests... I will never laugh again in Uzbekistan... It makes me look like a clown... 3. Terrible service. There was never anyone at the front desk, especially when the power went out in my room and I needed help... During my two-night stay, no one cleaned the room. Now for the pros: 1. The room was clean, bright, and spacious, spotless. 2. The breakfast was very good, plentiful, and nutritionally balanced. Furthermore: Only the bottled water in the room was free on the first night of your stay; they didn't replenish it during your stay. A bottle of water in the refrigerator next to the front desk cost 5000 soms.

Pros: It's right next to a mosque 🕌, which isn't a famous attraction, but I prefer that kind of down-to-earth feel. It's also not far from the main sights and very close to University Road. Free parking is available at the entrance. Breakfast was decent; although there were a few flies, the variety was quite good. Cons: The room smelled absolutely terrible, an awful stench. It was a disaster. The drain reeked, and the furniture in the room was like something from a cheap short-term rental. The smell was so bad at night it gave me a headache and made me feel nauseous. Even with the balcony door open, it didn't help 🙅‍♀️; the smell was continuous. Next time I stay somewhere, I definitely need to see the room first! I'd rather sleep on the balcony. Staying in a room like this for too long would definitely be bad for your health!

Great hotel with a delicious and filling breakfast. The front desk staff are always fantastic at answering any questions, from where to go and how to get there, to where to have dinner – they know everything! We really enjoyed our stay, thank you! ☀️

I had a truly fantastic experience! The front desk staff were incredibly patient and helpful, promptly addressing my questions about restaurant recommendations and an issue with the power outlets in my room. The room itself was lovely, and the rooftop terrace offered a nice view of the back of the attractions. The tourist tax was paid at checkout, and they even helped me print out a hotel stay certificate.
