The Asia Hotel Bukhara has very spotty WiFi- it worked about half the time. It has effective air conditioning and an excellent location. Road construction means you can't drive right up to the hotel now.
There is no soap dish in the shower so the shampoo has to be on the floor. No conditioner is provided so if you use it bring your own. The shower is only partially enclosed by a glass partition so the bathroom floor gets wet when you shower. There is a heated towel dryer in the bathroom which works well. It's always on so it does make the bathroom warm which would be good in the winter but not good in the hot weather.
Very firm beds- which I like but many people (especially most Brits do not). There is a kettle in the room with a couple of tea bags and one packet of instant coffee provided. Robes are provided.
There was a safe but it was locked and unusable. Breakfast (starts at 7:00) is good but nothing is labeled so my vegetarian friend wasn't happy to have taken meat filled Items. There is an egg station but it doesn't begin until well after 7:00. There is a guy who the coffee machines. The line for it is long and very slow until the demand eases up about half an hour in. Otherwise there is poor quality...

ย ย ย Read moreI visited Asia hotel a day before and liked the rooms we saw. Being surprised I decided to overnight here to make sure that the hotels is really nice. I got my single room and was disappointed, it looked old fashioned and worn outโฆThe TV has no movie channels or youtube app. Nothing to do if you donโt have notebook or book to read. My room faced the main street, so in the morning crazy drivers drove fast and horned the vehicle, i.e noisy. WiFi was poor in the room. The water pressure was poor and too long to get hot water (( The following morning I asked reception to show me single and double rooms and got all clear by then. They double rooms were fully renovated and they excellent, single rooms were semi renovated and were what they were )) The breakfast was acceptable taking into account the off-season period. Although, there is unpleasant kitchen smell in the corridor if you stay I the rooms to the left of the reception. There is no elevator and a long staircase, make sure you can lift the luggage, though there is a bellboy who will assist you. Overall, you can stay here, but make sure you book double room, facing inner yard and to the right of...
