Having gained independence in 1991 following the breakup of the Soviet Union, Uzbekistan is a young country. But the roots of this vast land are ancient.
For centuries, this area of land was a major crossroads along the Silk Road – an age-old trading route that stretched all the way from China to the Mediterranean. Samarkand, one of three major cities dotted along the road, contains so many architectural feats from this period that it has been classed entirely as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. See for yourself at the Registan, a wide plaza bordered by three mosaic-covered madrassas (religious schools) with bright turquoise domes. To the west, Bukhara offers similarly impressive landmarks, including the ruins of a 5th-century royal compound known as the Ark, while the walled city of Khiva further north is the most remote but best-preserved of the Silk Road cities. Here you’ll find stunning mosques, mausoleums and palaces towering over a labyrinth of streets. But there’s more to Uzbekistan than ancient history. Tashkent, the urban capital in the eastern region, is refreshingly cosmopolitan, while in the far north you can visit the Aral Sea – formerly one of the world’s largest lakes now on the verge of disappearing completely.
Hotels and guesthouses are aplenty in the capital, as well as in the Silk Road cities. Accommodation is quite limited elsewhere.

Located in Samarkand, Kosh Havuz boutique hotel features a terrace and a bar. Providing a restaurant, the property also has a fitness centre, as well as a sauna and a hot tub.
Guest review
The Kosh Havuz is a really special place that I would recommend to everyone. We stayed here on our honeymoon and the staff in the hotel kindly offered a few gestures to make our stay very special.
The staff are so kind here, it really makes a difference. Aside from that the hotel itself is jaw droppingly beautiful. The courtyard, the terrace and the rooms themselves are gorgeous, spotlessly clean and perfectly maintained. The breakfast is wonderful (healthy fruits and yoghurts, cakes, bread, hot food, juices and fresh eggs. We requested a quiet room and it was perfectly silent. The bed was really comfortable. Finally, the location is absolutely perfect, 10 minute walk to the Registan.

Meros Hotel features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Bukhara.
Guest review
The hotel has an excellent location — close to everything you need. It’s newly built, spotlessly clean, and incredibly well maintained. What really makes it special, though, is the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The hotel is small, with only seven rooms, which gives it a cozy, family-like feel — and perhaps that’s why the staff are so exceptionally kind. They go above and beyond to make you feel at home. One of the ladies even gave us a gift — fresh melon — and often brought little treats during our stay. Their hospitality is truly remarkable, far beyond what you’d normally expect. And again, the cleanliness is outstanding — everything is spotless. You can really feel the care and heart they put into this place.
