Ichan Qal'a Premium Class Hotel Reviews

The biggest problem is that the location is difficult to find. Taxis can't always find the hotel, and Google Maps also goes around and around. Instead, Baidu Maps is the most reliable in Uzbekistan. The hotel is very close to the airport, a 10-minute drive. It should be noted that if it is the T3 passenger terminal, it is very far from T1 and T2. They are not in the same place. T3 usually flies to Bukhara. The hotel breakfast is the best I have ever stayed in a hotel in Uzbekistan, and there are also music performances. The room facilities are a bit old, the TV is very small, and there is always the roar of machines, which affects the quality of sleep. The pillows are also uncomfortable and there is no comb. You can also walk to Timur Square. Overall, it’s a good choice in Uzbekistan.

The hotel is a garden villa type, very very large, each villa has about 8 rooms, and the rooms are also very large. The overall service is also good, and the location is also very good. It is a 15-minute walk from the subway station Oybek and more than 10 minutes from the airport Taxi. There are many specialty restaurants and cafes on the surrounding main roads.

It's a very nice hotel, very close to the airport, with exotic decorations, and it's very attractive. There are also good restaurants around.

I was looking for a hotel close to the airport on a business trip, and it was a much better hotel than I thought. The hotel facilities are very well maintained and the rooms are spacious and clean. When I arrived at night by taxi, I thought it was a remote place, but there are many good restaurants on foot and various convenience facilities such as convenience stores there were so many It is also convenient to travel by taxi.

야외 수영장이 매우 훌륭하고 아름다웠습니다 조식 먹는데 공연을 했습니다 메뉴는 아주 다양하지는 않았어요 빌라로 구분되어있어 이색적이었습니다 방은 맥시멀리스트로 화려하고 어떤 감각에서는 조금 촌스러울수도 있어요 현금인출기나 환전에 어려움을 겪어 아쉬웠어요

Really good hotel. I dont know the star rating, but feels like a 5 star. I was tired from a trip to India and needed to recover and see Tashkent in Uzbekistan. The hotel has 2 pools. One outdoor and one indoor. The indoor pool has beautiful tiles, felt very warm and was 25m in length. The break fast had 2 musicians who came every day and played. Loved the music they played. No one expected any tips. The rooms were very big and maybe its because we booked a king room. But very nice rooms. We took a taxi from the hotel the first time from the airport to the hotel. Its much cheaper to use the local app Yandex. I would recommend using that as the price difference is huge. The hotel is brilliant. It is about 1.5km to the attractions. We walked it but people can yandex it. Its still a great hotel. From what I could tell its an old fort (or modelled from one) based on the town of Khiva. I liked the hotel so much, that we stayed in it while arriving Uzbekistan and also on the way back when departing Uzbekistan. Will stay again if I visit again.

The hotel is built along a traditional courtyard design and it's lovely to have an evening drink, or even dinner, in the internal courtyard. There were musicians playing at breakfast – both traditional and western popular music, which was a pleasant surprise. The hotel also has a beautiful internal swimming pool When we were there the external pool was being renovated, but it looked as though it would be terrific when finished.

Such a lovely hotel - the staff were the highlight and the breakfast was really good. The rooms were super comfortable - the only downside was that the wifi wasn't that reliable.

Great hotel used at beginning and end of trip that I’d return to without hesitation. Picked up from airport with no problems although for return flight the car hotel had booked didn’t turn up. When it did arrive late then drove to wrong terminal. Not the hotel’s fault but unneeded stress. Room at beginning was one of the older, very ornate ones - perfectly comfortable for some sleep after a long flight. On way back stayed in one of the new suites which was well priced (cheaper than regular room). Really nicely decorated, very good bed. Room service was quick and tasty. Breakfasts were amazing, especially for a vegetarian, the best in Uzbekistan! Full selection of eggs, salads, cheese, fruit, pastries etc. Staff were really helpful and I enjoyed the musical accompaniment. Front staff were helpful with directions, getting money out etc. I’d definitely return - although try for the newer rooms.

I've stayed for two nights. Clean and well furnished rooms . Fantastic property. Cordial team. The food is excellent. Unbelievably beautiful. I was surprised to see 'I love you' wall. Time and design invested easily make the Hotel fit for a king.

The hotel with a typical decoration is very well located in Tachkent close all good restaurants,. The staff is helpful and very welcoming. We have been two times in this hotel during our stay in Uzbekistan. The fist time we have been disappointed by the really small size of the room regarding our booking. At the second time the staff upgraded us in a very nice suite. Thank a lot to the staff for this attention and great hospitality ! We appreciate a lot. We were 6 people and I recommend this hotel in Tachkent.

I had a mixed feeling about this hotel . On the whole it is quite nice : the architecture of the building, the small courtyard , the pool area with an open and indoor swimming pool : they are lovely The inside is a little bit opulent to my taste but reflecting the lavish atmosphere of the “old times “. On the contrary my room was bit disappointing , not what I expected from a class hotel like that : it was n 8 , quite a good size but very dark , the headboard had cuts , the washbasin had cracks and the duvet was old fashion . The wardrobe absolutely not appropriate for a hotel room . The same was for the benches in the pool area: a few pillowcases were stained . In addition the bar at the swimming pool area was not open even though there were tourists sunbathing. Anyway we could order all the same from the restaurant and have something to eat the at the pool area. We had dinner one night here in the courtyard where actually there are very few tables and food and service were really good. The general atmosphere was a little cold or ,at least ,not as friendly as we had in all the other hotels in Uzbekistan.

Good rooms. Nice decor and design. Breakfast and breakfast selection needs improvement

Our stay at Ichan Qala started off rocky as the King room we requested in building 5 (near the pool) several months previously was inexplicably unavailable when we arrived at 9pm-ish and we were too tired to argue. The room we got was in one of the older buildings and was small - it was hard to maneuver around the King bed as the was so close to the wall sides, the AC was inadequate and the shower was malfunctioning. Next day however we insisted on being moved to the room we had booked in the much more modern building 5 where the rooms are much larger and everything was much better. It was also close to the outdoor and inside pools and we enjoyed both. The breakfast buffet was not much to speak of compared to the other hotels we stayed in. We would go to the markets and bazaars and stock up on the excellent pies that are cheaply available and eat those for breakfast (and lunch). We had the impression from other visitors who looked like backpackers at a hostel that there was a two-price system - more expensive for western visitors. The staff were friendly and helpful. But, I would rather stay elsewhere as the other more modern hotels in Tashkent are now better for about the same price.
