Bukhara Mir-i Arab Madrassah Hotels

"This boutique hotel very close to the major sights combines beautiful historic design with modern amenities in-room. The breakfast room is absolutely stunning with its original, historic decor. We stayed in the Executive Double, which was very spacious and had air conditioning and heat (for whenever time of year you stay), a great bed and seating, ample electrical plugs, a refrigerator, and a spacious bathroom with a great shower. Lots of good restaurants nearby. Lastly the staff was incredibly hospitable and kind. Would highly recommend for your stay when visiting the historic center of Bukhara."

"Really enjoyed staying here. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to answer questions. Breakfast was served as a buffet with a good variety of food, everything was fresh and tasty. I also liked the terrace — the view over Bukhara is very nice, especially in the evening. "

"Close to Labi Hovuz, old Bukhara style design, and helpful staff."

"Such a great place! Right in the centre of everything, yet quietly tucked away. The owning family are super nice and helpful. The room was small, but had all I needed and - most importantly - everything was clean and worked, especially in the bathroom. My favourite place in Uzbekistan by far!"

"We stayed at Omar Khayyam Hotel for four nights, paying approximately $431, which is on the higher end compared to other hotels we used during our trip in Uzbekistan. Upon check-in, the first room we were given had a very worn and extremely squeaky mattress, to the point that even small movements disturbed the other person. After spending an uncomfortable first night, we reported the issue and were moved to another room, which we appreciated. However, the second room did not have a refrigerator, which was inconvenient for a stay of this length. The breakfast was disappointing, especially considering the price. There was very little variety of hot food, with most options limited to cold items such as cheese and cereal. On two of the four mornings, we were told that we were the only guests, and breakfast service was noticeably scaled back. This gave the impression that corners were cut, which further reduced the overall value of the stay. In comparison to other hotels we stayed at in Uzbekistan—many of which were less expensive—this was the weakest overall experience. Finally, while our booking mentioned an additional hotel tax of approximately $30, we were charged the equivalent of about $40 at checkout, without a clear explanation for the difference. Overall, while the staff did accommodate our room change, the comfort issues, poor breakfast quality, and pricing discrepancies made this hotel poor value for the cost."

"The dining room is a treasure to behold and be in, assuming one is keen on unvarnished 19th century surroundings."

"Amenities and pool, staff, room"

"Everything is very good about the Hotel. We've no complaints. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. They even packed breakfast for us on request as we had to leave early in the morning. Location is good and while you find the hotel,, you'll experience the streets which is interesting."

"First perfect location and fantastic view from our hotel room window. The staff were very helpful. I would recommend staying there."
