Samarkand Regency Amir Temur
Uzbekistan
Formerly known as Samarkand Regency Amir Temur, this hotel now operates as Hilton Samarkand Regency within the Silk Road Samarkand complex. Its setting beside the rowing canal gives a stay here a different character from accommodation in the historic centre. Rooms include canal-view options and a range of suites. The property also offers indoor and outdoor pools and Nephrite Spa & Wellness. Dining extends from El Sabor's meat-focused menu to the twentieth-floor Sky Bar, which looks across Samarkand and the complex's Eternal City. The hotel suits travellers who want a resort-style base alongside excursions into historic Samarkand. Its dining, wellness and canal setting allow the property to form a substantial part of the visit.
