Our stay in Samarkand was made more remarkable with our stay at the Hotel Bibikhanum. We were able to arrange from them a transfer from the train station to the hotel, as we arrived early in the morning. As the hotel is located on a side street next to the Bibikhanum Mosque complex, we were able to use that as a landmark to get back to the hotel. The courtyard and the on-site Zargaron Restaurant give an amazing view of the Bibikhanum Mosque from the side, which made for an amazing backdrop for breakfast in the morning. We were able to leave our luggage at the hotel and sightsee in the morning while we waited for our room to be ready for check-in. Our room was located on the second floor, next to the restaurant, which had ambient noise in the morning and night but quieted down for bedtime. The room was large, with comfortable beds. Each bed had a double outlet next to the nightstand, which was convenient for charging our devices. The bathroom was also large and roomy, and the towel heater was welcome for the chilly nights. Breakfast was served in the Zargaran Restaurant starting at 7:30AM. A buffet spread of cold cuts, cheeses, crepes, an egg dish, breads, fruits, coffee and tea was abundant. Best of all was the view of the dome during breakfast. The hotel front desk was also able to help us arrange a car for a day trip to the Urgut Bazaar outside Samarkand and to Shahkrisabz for a reasonable price. The hotel is an easy walk to the Registan and most of the sites in the historical area, but a bit aways from the restaurants and nightlife in the New City. Ask the front desk to call you a regular cab to get there. Overall, this was a great hotel that made our stay in Samarkand wonderful.
