La propriété — RIDON LUX
Ridon Lux is a no-nonsense 3-star in Tashkent’s central business district, a short walk from the Amir Timur Museum and the metro. The lobby is functional: tiled floors, a small reception desk, and a seating area with a TV running Uzbek news. It suits budget-conscious travellers who need a clean, quiet base with breakfast included, rather than character or frills.
Chroniques de Tashkent
Tashkent was an ancient Silk Road stop, but an earthquake in 1966 levelled most of the old city. The Soviets rebuilt it wide and green – boulevards, parks, and brutalist architecture dominate. Since independence, a glossy new Tashkent has emerged: a modern metro, glass towers, and a growing café scene. Today it feels like a Central Asian capital finding its post-Soviet identity, with a mix of Soviet heft and new money.
Meilleur moment pour visiter
Guide complet de Tashkent →Meilleurs mois
April–May and September–October: temperatures 15–25°C, clear skies, parks in bloom, fewer tourists than mid-summer.
Peak / Festival surge
July: school holidays and scorching heat (often 35–40°C) push prices up. Hotel rates in Tashkent rise 20–30% as local families and budget tour groups arrive. No major festival in July, but heat alone drives demand.
La saison des épaules
Late September–early November: temperatures drop to pleasant 10–20°C, crowds thin, hotel prices drop to lowest of the year. Good for sightseeing without queueing.
Météo & Emballage
July is dry heat, not humid – you’ll sweat but it won’t cling. Pack light cotton, a sun hat, and sunblock, plus a light jacket for air-conditioned buildings and evening breezes.
Briefing de la ville — Tashkent
- Tashkent’s metro opened two new stations in 2024 (Kukcha and Qo‘yliq), extending Line 3 – check route maps before relying on it for the hotel.
- Amir Timur Square pedestrianisation is complete, making the area around Ridon Lux quieter and more walkable, with new street cafés.
- Uzbekistan introduced visa-free travel for 90 more countries in 2025, so July 2026 may see more spontaneous visitors – book the hotel early.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to RIDON LUX, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Upper floors (4th–5th) overlooking the inner courtyard, if available. These offer less street noise and a more stable temperature in summer.
Rooms to avoid
Ground-floor rooms near the lobby or stairwell, and any room directly facing the main street (likely Tashkent's busy arterial roads) — expect traffic hum and occasional horns, especially on weekdays.
Best views
Rooms on the 4th or 5th floor facing the quieter side street (not the main road) may see local residential blocks or a bit of greenery. No real landmark view, but better than staring at a wall.
Quietest floors
4th and 5th floors (assuming a 5-storey walk-up or low-rise building with old lift). These floors are far enough from street-level noise and rarely have foot traffic above.
🔊 Noise notes
Tashkent has active traffic until late evening; morning delivery trucks and street sweeping start around 6–7am. Lift in a 3-star is likely older — clunky and whiny when in use. Also possible: occasional muezzin call from a nearby mosque (brief, not a major issue).
Insider tips
1. If you have a car, ask reception about free on-street parking out back — many 3-star hotels in Tashkent have a small lot or allow side-street parking, saving the 20,000 UZS/hour meter out front. 2. Request a top-floor room as early as possible — the old lift can be slow and hot in summer, so you want minimal climbing and best quiet.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

A plov (rice pilaf) or shurpa (soup) from a simple chaikhana; roughly 30,000–50,000 UZS.
A main dish like manti (dumplings) or lagman (noodle soup) at an everyday diner; around 40,000–70,000 UZS.
The Chorsu Bazaar area has cheap kebabs, samsa, and bread; also along Navoi Avenue near the metro.
Korzinka and Makro are the main budget supermarket chains found in Tashkent.
The Chorsu Bazaar and adjacent Mirzo Ulugbek market sell affordable everyday clothes; also the large wholesale market on Fargona Yoli.

Eat at chaikhanas or bazaars instead of tourist restaurants; use the metro for longer journeys; buy bottled water and snacks at Korzinka rather than street kiosks.

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →S’entourer
Station 'Sebzor' (connected via metro to Bodomzor) → Tashkent City Centre
💡 Trams are slow but give you a real local vibe. Line 1 passes through older neighbourhoods with tree-lined streets. Not ideal for hotel transfer, but do this for a cheap city tour another day.
Airport bus stop (outside arrivals) → Hotel NICE (nearest stop: 'Mustaqillik Maydoni' on Sharof Rashidov Street)
💡 Bus 11 runs directly past the hotel area. Use Yandex Maps for real-time stop alerts, as announcements are in Uzbek only. Have small change or a transport card.
Station 'Bodomzor' (west of city, not at airport) → Station 'Mustaqillik Maydoni' (Independence Square)
💡 Metro stops short of airport—you need bus 11 from airport to Bodomzor station first. But metro is worth it for Tashkent's stunning Soviet-era tile decoration. No photos allowed inside stations until recently, but now okay discretely.
Islam Karimov Tashkent International Airport (TAS) → Hotel NICE (near Mustaqillik Maydoni)
💡 Book via Yandex Go app for fixed price; avoid drivers inside the terminal who quote 3x more. Stand near the exit gate for better GPS signal.

Principales attractions à Tashkent
💡 Go early morning (8-9am) to see the bread coming fresh from the tandyr ovens. Free to walk around but carry small sums for a cup of tea or a samsa.
💡 Sit on a bench near the fountain side around 5pm when locals gather. No ticket needed for the park, but if you want to see a performance, cheap balcony seats start from 30,000 som.
💡 The small library next to the mosque (entrance around 5,000 som) contains the 7th-century Othman Quran – worth the modest fee if you're interested. Best visited at sunset for golden light on the tiles.
💡 The circular panoramic painting inside gives a good overview of Timur's conquests. Avoid weekends when school groups arrive.
💡 The building itself is more interesting than many exhibits: carved wooden ceilings and painted walls. Go on a weekday afternoon to have the place almost to yourself. There's a small cafe in the courtyard.
