Guesthouse · Samarkand
A national-style mini-hotel in an old house between Bibi-Khanym Mosque and Shah-i-Zinda, with spacious rooms, home breakfast and welcoming hosts.
Rabat is a small guesthouse in an old house in a historic mahalla. Bibi-Khanym Mosque is about 600 m away, the Registan and the Shah-i-Zinda necropolis around 750 m, and Siyob Bazaar 800 m.
The house is decorated in national style, and breakfast is served in a room with an old-fashioned interior. Rooms are spacious and air-conditioned. The staff are welcoming and knowledgeable. Bibi-Khanym, Siyob Bazaar and Shah-i-Zinda can all be covered on foot in a day from here. For travellers who would rather stay in an old Samarkand house than a standard hotel.
Information checked: October 2026. Prices and hours can change — call ahead before you go. We do not take bookings: contact the venue directly.
