Boutique Hotel Arka in Samarkand

The hotel is beautiful, but the entrance is a bit hard to find.
The shower is difficult to adjust — the water is either too hot or too cold.
Breakfast runs out very quickly and the options are quite limited.

Very cozy hotel with Amazing staff!! We stayed at Arka Boutique Hotel last week with a group of friends, we came all the way from Spain. From the very beginning Anvar and his team were super hosts and attentive! For breakfast we had the chance to try local cuisinne and they were also able to organize for us a tour with a guide to discover the city of Samarkand and learn a lot of insights. I would definitely recommend!

My wife and I recently stayed at this boutique hotel in Samarkand for two nights, and we were thoroughly impressed. The hotel is tucked away behind another building off the main road, which gives it a hidden, almost secretive charm. Upon entering the courtyard, we were blown away by the spectacular interior. The room was modest but very clean and tastefully designed. No effort was spared to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive, contributing to one of our best stays in Uzbekistan. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Samarkand.

This hotel was fantastic. Just had a good feeling. Relatively new building but still with local character and very nicely designed. We stayed in double room on top floor which is better as more light upstairs. The place is very quiet. The room was very clean and comfortable. Bed was good and shower good and wifi worked well. The breakfast was good, good variety for this size hotel and cut fruit was nice, but would be nice to have fresh local breatd to eat with the nice food provided. Laundry service available by piece. The service from staff was exceptional. The staff are always checking to make sure all is ok and to help with anything needed. In particular their food recommendations were the best compared to the other hotels that just send you to touristy joints. The places recommended for somsa, pilaf and manti were superb and local. Yes the location is not right in the main part but it's very easy to get around with Yandex, less than $2 a ride anywhere in city and one ends up getting taxis anyway all the time as all the good places to eat are not ìn the main tourist area and sites are spread òut. The location feels very safe to walk as well. The staff are very proactive and even offered a lift to a local restaurant. We stayed in Samarkand for five nights and it was the right amount of time as there is so much to see and do. I don't know how people can just come for a day or two.

Very modern and clean hotel. New, well-kept, modern renovation in the rooms. Nice and polite staff, varied breakfasts. Modern interior style, everything in the loft, huge beds, plasma, all standard fillings in the room (water, shower, towels)
