Luxury Tashkent City Center Apartment: Unbelievable Views!
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the Luxury Tashkent City Center Apartment: Unbelievable Views! – and let me tell you, this isn't your grandma's cookie-cutter hotel review. Forget the polite pleasantries; we're going for real here. My bank account might hate me for this, but hey, gotta live a little, right?
First Impressions: The View, and the Questionable Elevator Ride
Okay, let's be brutally honest: unbelievable views? They weren't lying. My jaw actually dropped the moment I walked in. Cities are my jam, and this place just poured Tashkent right into my lap, like a delicious, shimmering cocktail. Seriously, the entire city was spread out before me, a tapestry of lights and buildings, the kind of view that makes you feel like you can conquer the world… or at least conquer the minibar (more on that later).
Now, the elevator… Let's just say it had a personality. And that personality was vintage. It rattled a bit, made some questionable noises, and I swear it took longer to get up there than it took me to plan the entire trip. But hey, that's part of the charm, right? Adds a bit of… anticipation? Yeah, let's go with anticipation.
Accessibility & Safety: The Modern World's Embrace
Alright, let's talk about what matters in the modern world. Accessibility is so important, and luckily, this place ticks most of the boxes, especially for a hotel, and in this region. I'm not an expert but let's say the hotel says it’s wheelchair accessible, it has elevators, and some of the public areas seem easy to navigate. The rooms themselves seemed spacious enough, which is always a plus.
And safety? Well, they take it seriously. Seriously seriously. Constant CCTV, security guards wandering around, fire extinguishers at every turn (which, honestly, made me feel a bit self-conscious about my pyrotechnic tendencies, which are none). They have staff trained in safety protocols, and god, they're all wearing masks and gloves, which is an undeniable plus during these times. Honestly, felt safer here than I do on my own sofa, and I'm pretty sure I’ve got a few questionable snacks in there. The "room sanitization opt-out available" is a nice (and slightly unsettling) touch, they have "anti-viral cleaning products" - that's reassuring but god, I hope they didn’t use them to make the elevator even worse.
Dining – A Feast for the Eyes (and, Occasionally, the Stomach)
Okay, the dining experience was…an experience. The Asian breakfast? Delicious. I mean, truly, the dim sum was little clouds of joy, and I am a SUCKER for a good Asian Cuisine. They call it Asian cuisine in restaurant, so you can expect delicious and varied food around the restaurant. The Western breakfast? A bit…meh. But hey, you can't win 'em all.
Important Note: they serve a Breakfast [buffet], but also offer Breakfast takeaway service with Individual-wrapped food options, perfect for if you're sneaking off on a secret mission (or just, you know, want to eat in your pajamas). There are a few Restaurants, a Coffee shop, a Snack bar and a Poolside bar that seems perfect for day drinking. I'm sure the Bar is fun too, it’s important to have an alcoholic drink in a trip to Tashkent.
Rooms: A Sanctuary in the Sky - with Maybe Too Much Stuff?
Let's get real. The rooms are gorgeous. Seriously, the views continue, and that's the most important thing, but the room itself is luxurious. Air conditioning? Check. Blackout curtains? Blessed be. And they have complimentary tea, which is basically a love language.
Now, if I had to nitpick (and I do), there was a lot of stuff. Like, a mountain of pillows, a mini-fridge overflowing with overpriced goodies, and a desk that practically begged me to get some work done (which, obviously, I ignored). But hey, better to have too much than too little, right? And let's be honest, I'm a sucker for a luxurious room.
All rooms include: Additional toilet, Air conditioning, Alarm clock, Bathrobes, Bathroom phone, Bathtub, Blackout curtains, Carpeting, Closet, Coffee/tea maker, Complimentary tea, Daily housekeeping, Desk, Extra long bed, Free bottled water, Hair dryer, High floor, In-room safe box, Interconnecting room(s) available, Internet access – LAN, Internet access – wireless, Ironing facilities, Laptop workspace, Linens, Mini bar, Mirror, Non-smoking, On-demand movies, Private bathroom, Reading light, Refrigerator, Safety/security feature, Satellite/cable channels, Scale, Seating area, Separate shower/bathtub, Shower, Slippers, Smoke detector, Socket near the bed, Sofa, Soundproofing, Telephone, Toiletries, Towels, Umbrella, Visual alarm, Wake-up service, Wi-Fi [free], Window that opens.
Things to Do & Ways to Relax: The Ultimate Pampering Fiesta
Okay, this is where things get really good. My favorite detail… Hot water linen and laundry washing, it’s just what every man needs, right? Well, they've got it all. From a Fitness center (which I might have peeked into) a Gym/fitness, a Swimming pool, and a Swimming pool [outdoor]. I’m a sucker for a good massage and the Spa and Spa/sauna is a must. They also have, a Steamroom, Sauna, Body wrap, and, of course, a Body scrub. The Pool with view is a plus.
Services & Conveniences: They Thought of EVERYTHING!
Here's where this place really shines. They've got everything you could possibly need, and probably a few things you didn't even realize you wanted. Cash withdrawal, Currency exchange, Daily housekeeping, Doorman, Dry cleaning, Elevator, Food delivery, Gift/souvenir shop, Invoice provided, Ironing service, Laundry service, Luggage storage, all those things make this place a must-try. But the real star of the show? The Concierge. These guys are legends. Need a taxi? They're on it. Want a secret location for a proposal? They've got you! Seriously, they're like your personal Tashkent genie.
For the Kids: Family Friendly? Oh, Absolutely!
Okay, let's be frank, this isn't a place that screams "kid-centric". But the fact that it's Family/child friendly tells a different story. There's a Babysitting service. So, if you're traveling with the little monsters, you're covered.
The Verdict: Book It! But Be Prepared for Some Flawsome-ness
Okay, overall? Luxury Tashkent City Center Apartment: Unbelievable Views! is a win. The views alone are worth the price of admission. The staff are fantastic. The location is perfect, and the amenities are top-notch. Is it perfect? Nope. Nothing is, and frankly, that's what makes it interesting. The elevator is a bit sketchy, the western breakfast could use a boost, and the sheer amount of stuff in the room can be a bit overwhelming.
But the pros far outweigh the cons. This is a hotel that knows how to pamper you, spoil you, and make you feel like you're living your best, most glamorous life. And that view? It's the kind of view that makes you want to stay forever.
Also, the fact that you can opt-out of room sanitization? Interesting. Like, what does that even mean? Is it because people are freaked out about cleaning? Or do they just know my mess can’t get any worse? (Kidding. Mostly.)
My Imperfect Recommendation:
If you want a taste of luxury with a side of real-world charm, you’ve found your place. Book it. Live it. And then, get ready to tell everyone about your incredible Tashkent adventure.

Alright, buckle up buttercups and prepare to be transported (virtually, that is) to Tashkent! My Tashkent City Center apartment adventure is about to get real, folks. Forget your perfectly curated Instagram feeds – this is the messy, beautiful truth.
Day 1: Arrival, Apartment Shenanigans, and a Hefty Dose of “What Have I Gotten Myself Into?”
- Morning (Err, late morning): Touchdown! Arrived in Tashkent, the air thick with that specific Central Asian heat that makes you feel like you’re walking into a warm hug…or maybe just a blast furnace. Immigration? A breeze! Finding a taxi? Not so much. After much gesticulation (mostly from me) and a healthy dose of "lost in translation," I finally wound up in a beat-up Lada that smelled suspiciously of sunflower oil. Charming.
- Afternoon: The glorious City Center apartment. It's… well, it’s an apartment. Clean, thankfully. The view? Meh. Concrete jungle with a hint of Soviet grandeur. My inner critic did a dance of disappointment for a hot minute, then shut up. I'd been dreaming of cobblestone streets and romantic ruins not a modern building. I just had to remind myself: This is real life, not a Pinterest board.
- Afternoon (later): Grocery shopping. Let me tell you, navigating a Tashkent market is an Olympic sport. I’m pretty sure I accidentally bought a whole watermelon the size of my torso. The vendor winked. I think he thought I was a complete idiot. I probably am. Finding milk was another quest – turns out, they call it "sut" here. Who knew?
- Evening: Dinner at a local "chaikhana" (teahouse). The plov (rice, meat, and vegetables) was legendary. Honestly, I could have happily eaten that every meal for the next week. The tea…oh, the tea! Seriously, it was a religious experience. Conversing with locals was next level, but after a few attempts, my attempt to ask for food to go were met with quizzical looks. Then I remembered google translate to the rescue to save the day
- Night: Jet lag hit me like a freight train. I crashed into bed at 8 pm, certain I'd wake up at 3 am. I was right.
Day 2: Exploring the Old City and the Grand Bazaar (and a Near-Escape from a Persistent Tailor)
- Morning: The Chorsu Bazaar. Holy moly. A sensory overload of colours, smells, and sounds. Mountains of spices, dried fruits, and (obviously) watermelons. I got completely lost for what felt like hours. Bargaining? More like flailing while looking confused. I bought a beautiful silk scarf that probably cost twice what it was worth, but who cares? The joy on the vendor's face when I handed over the money made it worth it. I felt good.
- Afternoon: Old City exploration. The narrow alleyways, the crumbling walls, the glimpses into people's lives. It was pure magic. I stumbled upon a mosque, and the call to prayer echoed through the streets. Absolutely haunting. I found myself praying in silence not of my religion but of how beautiful the world is.
- Afternoon (later): The tailor incident. I was innocently admiring a jacket in a shop, and the tailor came at me. I thought I was going to be fitted and measured for a bespoke suit. He was incredibly persuasive but I was still too scared to. Dodged a bullet (or a tailored suit, more like). And yes, I went a little crazy with the spices at the bazaar.
- Evening: Dinner at a restaurant recommended by the apartment owner. Overpriced, and the food was so-so. I spent more time people-watching than actually eating. The constant stream of music was too much for me to handle. I left the restaurant to wander around looking for something else I could eat. I found a kebab vendor and the taste was out of this world.
- Night: This time, I actually stayed up and had a chat with a local that was sitting outside. He gave me some tips on what to expect in the next few days. I felt some peace and happiness at that moment.
Day 3: Back to the Future with Museums, and a Lesson in Patience (and Bad Street Meat)
- Morning: The Amir Timur Museum. Massive building, impressive exhibits. I learned things about the Timurid Empire. Architecture was pretty spectacular too!
- Afternoon: The Museum of Applied Arts. Think beautiful ceramics, intricate wood carvings, and textiles galore. I nearly burst with inspiration. I could see myself with a house full of these things. I had to slap myself to come back to the reality of my apartment.
- Afternoon (later): My stomach rumbled. Street food. I decided to be adventurous and try some… thing. The vendor was super nice. The food, however, was not. It tasted like a combination of old socks and regret. My stomach growled at me, for hours.
- Evening: Trying to catch a taxi again. The driver didn't speak a word of English. I tried to use my phrasebook, but my words sounded like a combination of desperate pleas and angry gibberish. Eventually, he seemed to understand. We made our way back to the apartment. A sigh of relief was heard.
- Night: I started planning my next trip back
Day 4: A Day Trip to The Mountains and Goodbye Tashkent
- Morning: Decided to skip the original plan of visiting a Soviet-era apartment. Got an early start. The taxi driver was pleasant. We arrived at the mountains, with an amazing view.
- Afternoon: I didn't want to go back. But I had to prepare for the next day.
- Evening: Packing. I said goodbye to the city.
- Night: Another Chat with the locals who helped me.
Day 5: Heading home
Well, that's my Tashkent adventure in a nutshell! Remember, this isn't a travel guide; it's a diary. And if you’re planning your own trip, please, go with an open mind, a sense of humour, and an iron stomach (trust me on the street meat). Tashkent is a city that crawls under my skin, a place of contradictions, incredible food, and unforgettable moments. And yeah, I wouldn't trade my messy, imperfect experience for anything.

Luxury Tashkent City Center Apartment: Your (Potentially) Over-the-Top Guide
Okay, spill it. Do the views really live up to the hype? (And should I bring binoculars?)
Alright, deep breath. The views... they're something. Honestly, the website photos? Yeah, they're probably not *exaggerating*. I'm talking, like, jaw-dropping, "did I accidentally teleport to a postcard?" kind of views. From the living room I swear I saw a hawk circle *twice*! Binoculars? Dude, pack 'em. You might spot who's getting away with parking their car on a lawn... or maybe just admire the intricate details on the Registan Square replica. I mean, come on, it's a *replica*! That itself is a view! I spent a completely unproductive afternoon just watching the clouds roll in, which is embarrassing because I was supposed to be, you know, *working*. So yeah, views: A+. Bring sunglasses. You'll need them. And maybe a therapist, because you'll never want to leave. I kid, I kid! Ish.
How luxurious are we *really* talking here? Does "luxury" mean "fake gold faucets" and "plastic orchids"? Please say no.
Listen, I've seen my share of "luxury" that felt about as luxurious as a gas station bathroom. This place? Thankfully, it's good. Like, really good. The faucets are actually *metal*. Gold-plated, maybe, but not the kind that screams "I bought this at a discount store." I spent a good hour just fiddling with the shower controls - you know, testing the water pressure, seeing if it really did all the things it promised to do. Honestly? It did. The orchids? Beautiful, living ones. For all I know they're fake in certain places, but you can't tell. The couch? Oh, the couch. I almost slept on it instead of the incredibly comfortable, I-can't-believe-I'm-not-sleeping-on-a-cloud bed. I did eventually wake up in bed, which was a relief after that couch episode. It's the subtle touches, you know? The art, the craftsmanship... It feels like someone actually *thought* about making this a great place to stay, not just a place to slap a "luxury" label on. (Phew!)
Is the internet decent? I have a serious Netflix addiction. And deadlines.
Okay, internet. This is crucial. I'm not going to lie, I've been burned before. "High-speed internet" that's slower than a snail on a sugar rush? I've experienced it. But here... the internet is pretty solid. I streamed a whole season of something utterly ridiculous (don't judge me!) without a single buffering glitch. That's a win in my book. Whether it's stable enough for *serious* work… well, that depends on your definition of "serious." I mean, I did write a few emails, then got distracted by the view again. So, maybe bring a backup plan for really important stuff. But for your Netflix binge? You're good. Just don’t tell my boss I said that.
What about the location? Is it actually *in the center*? Or is it just... 'kinda near'?
Okay, so the "City Center" thing is pretty darn accurate. I'm talking walkable to restaurants that serve food that doesn't feel like it will make you suddenly start speaking in tongues. There's a grocery store or two nearby too. And, critically, it's easy to get a taxi, or a Bolt/Yandex Go. You know, those ride-sharing things. So if you *must* leave your luxurious apartment and its unbelievable views... then it's a pretty convenient base for exploration. It's definitely not out in the boonies, where the only view is a goat staring you down. Though, goats are kinda cute. Okay, back to the point. Location: Excellent. You can actually *do* things from here. Plus, it's safe. I walked alone at night and didn't get mugged. Great!
What about the noise? City center can be... a little loud, right? Can I actually sleep?
Alright, honesty time. City center is city center. You will hear *something*. Cars. Maybe a distant dog. Possibly a stray camel (just kidding! Mostly...). But the apartment itself seems well-insulated. I definitely wasn't kept awake by a constant barrage of horns. I'm a light sleeper, and I slept like a baby. Well, not *exactly* like a baby. More like an adult who occasionally wakes up to check the view. So, yes, you *can* sleep. Maybe bring earplugs if you're *super* sensitive. But honestly, the peace and quiet inside is a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle outside. That being said, the air conditioning is SO good it made me think about wearing a sweater, and it's Tashkent.
Is there a kitchen? And if so, is it equipped for more than just boiling water?
Yes, there's a kitchen. And yes, it's actually...functional! God bless. Not just a sad little corner with a microwave and a rusty spoon, this kitchen is legit. There's a fridge, a stove, and all the necessary gadgets and utensils. I actually made myself a simple breakfast one morning – eggs, toast, coffee, the works. The coffee machine was even fancy. Don't expect a full-blown chef's kitchen with every single culinary tool imaginable, but it's plenty for whipping up a meal, a quick snack, or even... gasp... cooking. The only downside? It almost felt *too* nice to mess up. I was worried about getting a single smudge on the pristine countertops. That said, I didn't know what to make of the oven -- it's modern, not even a dial. A touch screen? A culinary mystery.
Should I book this apartment? Give me the hard truth.
Okay, the hard truth? Look, it depends. If you're on a super tight budget, this probably isn't for you. If you're allergic to comfortable beds and breathtaking views, then avoid it like the plague. But if you want a truly memorable experience, if you're willing to splurge a little for something special, and if the thought of waking up to a view that might actually give you a reason to get out of bed (besides the need to pee), then yes. Book it. Seriously. I'm already planning my return trip. I swear, I've never been so conflicted about whether to go outside or just stay planted on that couch, staring out the window. So, yeah. Go. And tell me all about it. I want to hear!
