Nasriddin Navruz

Bukhara


This friendly family-run place doesn't have a lot of style despite it's location in the old town, but the smallish rooms are a comfortable enough option for those on a budget. The flexible pricing can move by US$5 in either direction. Manager Otkir speaks good English; the B&B is named after his father and grandfather.
