Needs repair

Great looking hotel, good sized rooms and good breakfast / meal options. Our ceiling in the bathroom leaked for the entirety of our stay and the hotel staff were unable to fix this, meaning we had limited access to the bathroom.

Outstanding service.

The hotel was great, great location, and so clean. The smell of clean laundry every morning going through the hotel is amazing. The staff couldn’t have been better, the reception were so accommodating and always there to help. Answered question and delivered straight away. The restaurant upstairs was great as well. The waiter working at night time was fantastic, so nice and accommodating. Breakfast was great with a lot of variety. The room was comfortable, the blue light in the bathroom was a tad out of place and made the room dark.

As soon as you walk through the front door you are met with authentic period decor that transports you back in time. The staff were very friendly and helped me book a guide around the city. The room was exceptionally cleanand comfortable. I don't know people have knocked the breakfast as I found it to be diverse and well made. I especially liked that you could purchase an espresso drink rather than drink Nescafe from a pot. Overall, i gel this was an excellent choice.

Nice hotel with beautiful interior ign and service

We had a nice one-night stay. The location is within an area where local people live rather than just a block of hotels, so you can easily get a bit of an insight in everyone's daily life. It is still on a walking distance to the main tourist attractions. We didn't have the possibility to try the breakfast buffet since we had to leave before 7 in the morning but we asked for breakfast boxes which were nice. The room was in good condition but we would have wished more from the bathroom which was a bit old fashioned and there was a pipe from the roof to the shower which didn't make any sense.

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

1泊でお世話になりました。スタッフの方がとても良く笑顔で迎えて下さいました。チェックインの時間よりかなり早かったのでキャリーを預かった貰おうとしたんですが、部屋の準備をして下さいました。大きい荷物を抱えていたのでとても嬉しかったです。また、朝食の種類が豊富な上に、味も美味しかったです。最上階で絶景を見ながら食べる事ができ優雅な朝食でした。今回サマルカンドへは1泊だけだったので次回はもう少しゆっくり滞在したいと思います。ありがとうございました。
