This review is for Imperial Palace Hotel. Old Bukhara hotel was undergoing renovations when we arrived at the facility. Murad took us to the Imperial Place Hotel, less than 100 meters from the place. It is a convenient and clean facility with wonderfully helpful staff!!

This is a wonderful place from which to explore Bukhara. The staff were welcoming and friendly, the breakfast was delicious, the room was perfect. I particularly liked the chance to walk out of the door straight into an Old Bukhara mahalla. Highly recommended!

We were a family with teenagers visiting from UK. We were very impressed with the Old Bukhara hotel and found it to be one of the best we have stayed on our travels in Uzbekistan. It is spotless and the rooms lovely with good quality bedding etc. The traditional uzbek breakfast was the best we have had too. Staff and management were really accomodating and very helpful. We recommend!!

I tried to check in and then the staff there explained that cannot give room to me since there is someone very sick stayed at my room and they couldn’t check out. The situation last until 6pm for the day of my check-in. I am not sure if it is just an excuse to sell my booking to another hotel. Besides, please send your guest to hospital if he is so sick

Very clean, good location
The hotel is new and clean (literally, spotless!) Friendly owners, eager to help. Excellent location just 5 minutes to the main square with madrassas. Reasonable prices for taxi service (taxi taken at the train station had problems to find the location and actually charged more than the hotel).

I arrived at the hotel at 5pm to be told someone was sick so they couldn’t provide me the room I’d booked! So the guy took me to another hotel Imperial Palace Hotel for that evening.
I am not sure what is going on with this hotel but I can see they did the same thing to another guest!
The photos in Hotel.com website are different to the hotel itself. I asked about the plants and the tree in the court yard, the receptionist said they got rid of them all!!
I think something fishy is going on!!

Never trust this hotel!
We booked and paid two months before our trip. When we arrived late at night, we were told that the hotel was undergoing renovations and is closed. This is a fraud! It stinks to high heaven.

Homely Place 200m Away From The Action
Room was as described so if you want an authentic local experience , I would definitely recommend this hotel. The owner Murad is also very helpful and polite. The centre of old bukhara is about 200m walk away, exit the hotel and turn LEFT and just walk. You will come out to the centre, just follow the mosque domes. Murad also offers a courtesy taxi pickup for about $5 or 50,000 Somme at time of writing this, I would recommend you take it, makes it so much easier.

Fraud
Upon arrival at the hotel, which we had booked via Hotels.com, we were informed that the Hotel was undergoing renovation and not available for us.
We were offered another, cheaper (in both terms of the word), hotel, and that we could let the original reservation stay as-is on hotels.com
We politely informed them that while we could stay at the other hotel, we would like to cancel the original reservation and pay directly to the other hotel, as it was cheaper and of a lower standard (no exterior windows, for instance).
Upon returning home we find that they have refused to return our money

I just returned from a two-week trip to Uzbekistan, where I stayed at a handful of hotels. The Hotel Old Bukhara was the best. The room was very clean and the hotel's courtyard was nice. The family who owns it was also friendly. They were the only ones during my trip who arranged a driver to pick me up at a reasonable price for a tourist. They didn't overcharge like other hotels will do.
The hotel is in a great location down an alley from the main attractions. It takes only a couple minutes to walk to the Kalan mosque and trading domes but you don't feel like you are staying in a busy, touristy area.
The hotel provided the best breakfast I had on my trip. It was so large that I usually skipped lunch.
Lastly, I slept well during the few nights I stayed at the hotel. I've had bad experiences with noise in American hotels and was pleasantly surprised with the Hotel Old Bukhara, especially because it seems like an older, historic building. I'd be happy to stay there again.

I booked this hotel months in advance. Arranged a taxi from the train station with them, when the taxi took me to another hotel I was confused (despite his pick up sign saying Hotel Old Bulkhara). This different hotel told me old bukkara was closed and I was moved there. We were emailing just days before and they mentioned nothing about a hotel move. Ironically later I met tourists who were staying at Old Bukhara, which in fact was not closed. I also had booked with Old Bukhara well before them, yet was "kicked out" to this other hotel. The replacement hotel was a similar quality and similar location, I give a bad review because of how unprofessional that is to give no warning, even as we were emailing just days before. And no appology at all from replacement hotel. I am a seasoned traveler, but if I was an older tourist (as uzbekistan seems to have a lot of ) id feel "kidnapped" by a cab taking me to a different hotel with no warning, and also angered to be taken to a hotel I did not book.

Upon my arrival at the hotel, I was dismayed to learn that despite having a confirmed reservation, there were no available rooms for me. Instead, I was directed to a substitute hotel nearby, which fell drastically short of the standard I had anticipated.
Throughout my stay at the alternative accommodation, I encountered numerous challenges that greatly affected my experience. Firstly, the room was infested with mosquitoes, resulting in a sleepless night as I was constantly bitten and unable to find respite. Additionally, the bathroom had noisy fans, further exacerbating my difficulty in getting any rest.
Furthermore, I was surprised to discover additional charges for coffee during breakfast and repeated requests to pay a city tax higher than what was originally indicated in my booking.
As a loyal customer of Expedia, I have always trusted in the reliability and quality of your services. However, my recent experience with Hotel Old Bukhara has left me deeply disappointed and dissatisfied.
