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.

), the hotel and the room is beautiful, clean, very unique, the breakfast delicious. The whole stay was an experience that added a lot of positive vibe to our travel in Uzebkistan. Thank you!

Guest review
Great hotel with nice and helpful staff. Our flight didn`t leave before 6PM on check-out day, and they let us keep one room for free until we had to leave for the airport. It was actually the staff who suggested that we did, so we could stroll around town for a few hours on departure day, and still have access to all facilities. The hotel is conveniently close to the airport, and it was easy to get a taxi to move around town. We will definitely stay here again.

Featuring a bar, Khiva Siyovush Hotel is situated in Khiva. Boasting room service, this property also provides guests with a restaurant.
Guest review
The hotel owner was incredibly kind and always available at the front desk, whether it was morning or night. Their thoughtful gestures made our trip truly enjoyable and fulfilling. They were happy to assist with requests such as arranging taxis to other areas, and the rooms were impeccably clean. The owner frequently checked in on us and was consistently friendly and helpful.
The complimentary breakfast was also excellent, and when we couldn’t have breakfast before our Aral Sea tour, they prepared a lunch box for us. Even when we caused a bit of inconvenience, they responded graciously. This is truly an outstanding hotel, and I highly recommend it.
