蘇爾海達波努旅館

Location: about 750 m from the Old City. Check in was fast, the personnel have limited English proficiency however will try to help you with a cell phone translator. The guest house has 5 rooms. The rooms are big, with bathroom. No teapot to boil water. However, upon request they will bring you hot tea to your room. The dinning room was spectacular: low table and sitting on a cushion, but the decoration is very sophisticated. The breakfast is abundant includin cottage cheese, sour cream and cherries (to mis together, I learned), manti or samsa, egg, salad (tomato and cucumber), cold cuts and cheese, pastries including baklava, preserved figs, bread, tea, fresh fruit (cherries, peaches, plums and apples). I could not finish it so I would save the leftovers to eat later... I wish I have stayed longer. Remember that Khiva is a little out of the way from the axis Tashkent, Samarkanda and Bukhara. Be aware that Yandex does not work in Khiva, so the taxis are more expensive.
