The Property — HON SAROY
HON SAROY is a 3-star hotel on Tashkent’s dusty, wide Amir Temur Avenue, a 15-minute walk from the Amir Temur Square metro. The lobby is Soviet-era functional: marble floors, a polished wooden reception desk, and a small seating area under a low ceiling. It suits budget-conscious travellers who value a central location and clean, no-frills rooms over character. The USP is a good-value base for exploring the city on foot.
Chronicles of Tashkent
Tashkent was a major Silk Road trading post under the Timurids, but a devastating 1966 earthquake levelled its old town and prompted a Soviet rebuilding that gave it broad avenues, brutalist architecture, and extensive green spaces. Post-independence, the city added a modern metro system with ornate stations, a revived Islamic identity in the old Hast-Imam complex, and a growing coffee-and-coworking scene. Today it’s a calm, orderly capital of 2.5 million, where Soviet concrete meets Chorsu Bazaar’s chaos and new glass towers.
Best Time to Visit
Full Tashkent guide →Best months
April and May: spring flowers, 18-28°C, manageable crowds before the heat. September: similar mild temperatures, clear skies, and harvest fruit markets.
Peak / festival surge
July and August peak with intense dry heat (35-42°C) and school holidays. Hotel prices rise 30-50% against low-season rates. Major events include the July Silk and Spices Festival in Bukhara, which draws regional visitors through Tashkent.
Budget shoulder season
March and October offer discounts of 20-30% versus summer, with cooler temperatures (10-20°C) and fewer tourists. November sees further drops but can be grey and chilly (5-12°C).
Weather & packing
Tashkent in July is arid and furnace-like: daytime heat hits 40°C but evenings drop to 20°C, so a light jacket is essential for after dark. Pack a wide-brim hat, high-SPF sunscreen, and a reusable water bottle; the metro has no air conditioning in older stations.
Live City Briefing — Tashkent
- Tashkent Metro’s Yerostigiya line extension opened in late 2025, adding two new stations near the Chorsu Bazaar, making it easier to reach the old town from the city centre.
- Several new craft beer bars and coffee shops have opened on Millionaire Street (Ulitsa Milliy) in 2026, including the popular Uzbek microbrewery Komilov & Sons.
- Visitors should note that the Charvak Reservoir area (60km north) now requires a small entrance fee and registration for day-trips, effective from June 2026.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to HON SAROY, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the third floor facing away from Navruz 3 Tupik. Upper floors (3–4) minimise street noise from the dead-end road, which still carries local traffic. Corner rooms at the rear offer more quiet. Many hotels of this class in Tashkent place superior doubles at the back.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms, especially those overlooking the entrance or the side alley—staff and delivery noise from the street-facing side is common. Also avoid rooms directly above the lift shaft; in 3-star Soviet-era builds, lift machinery hums audibly on the first two floors.
Best views
Rear-facing rooms (likely overlooking a courtyard, small garden, or neighbouring apartment blocks) offer the most pleasant view, with less dust and traffic. No front views worth mentioning—they face a local dead-end road and car park.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are quietest, being set back from street-level activity and above the lift motor room (usually on the roof or in basement). If the hotel has only five floors, the fourth floor is optimal—less foot traffic above.
🔊 Noise notes
The address '9, Navruz 3 tupik' is a dead-end street—quieter than main roads but not silent. Expect occasional neighbourhood dogs, children playing, or residents parking. During Ramadan or holidays, evening gatherings may produce low-level chatter. No major nightlife nearby, but Tashkent's general street noise (especially from older cars and trolleybuses on Navruz nearby) can be heard on lower floors.
Insider tips
1) Check-in after 14:00 to avoid room cleaning delays; 3-star Uzbek hotels often transition rooms late morning. 2) If driving, note the 'tupik' (dead-end) means parking is on the street or in a small lot—arrive early to claim a spot near the entrance to avoid carrying bags far.
- 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 shashlik skewer with bread and salad at an outdoor grill spot: 25,000–40,000 UZS for a main.
Navruz 3 tupik is in a residential area so street food is limited; head toward Amir Temur Street or the Chorsu Bazaar for skewers, somsa and samsa.
Korzinka and Makro chain supermarkets are common in Tashkent; smaller 'do'kon' shops sell basics.
Chorsu Bazaar or the discount markets along Navoi Street—cheap casual wear and local textiles.
The Tashkent Metro (single ride 1,400 UZS) is cheapest; from the airport take bus #67 (1,400 UZS) or a ride-share (approx 15,000 UZS).
Eat at chaikhanas for cheap, filling meals. Use the metro instead of taxis for medium distances. Buy bottled water in bulk from supermarkets rather than street stalls.
Where to Eat
💡 Booking tip: For popular restaurants in Tashkent, book at least a week ahead — especially for weekend evenings and during festival season.
Your arrival at HON SAROY
🕒 Check-in is from . Arriving earlier? Most hotels store luggage free — just ask at reception.
🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
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.

Top Attractions in 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.
