Bukhara Gold Hostel

Bukhara Gold Hostel is a budget hostel at 60 Sariko'l Street in the Mirobod District of Tashkent, Uzbekistan, south of the railway station. The district is residential and practical, with small shops, bakeries and local eateries rather than major attractions, so visitors typically take a taxi, ride-hailing app or the metro to reach Amir Timur Square, Chorsu Bazaar and the central sights. The position south of the station suits travellers using early Afrosiyob high-speed trains to Samarkand, Bukhara or Khiva.

The hostel offers dorm beds and private rooms, with wifi and a shared common area where guests can meet other travellers and exchange advice about routes and day trips. Typical rates for the category run from about 100,000 to 250,000 UZS (roughly $8-20) per night for a dorm bed or basic private room, depending on season and dates, so live rates should be checked before booking. The hostel maintains a page on Facebook under the name BukharaGoldHostel.

The name nods to Bukhara, one of Uzbekistan's great Silk Road cities, and the atmosphere is informal and social, typical of independent hostels in the region. There is no confirmed information on an on-site restaurant, so guests usually eat at nearby cafes, tea houses and bakeries, or travel into the centre for a wider choice of Uzbek dishes such as plov, lagman, samsa and shashlik. Fresh flatbread from local bakeries makes an inexpensive breakfast.

Service is geared to backpackers, solo travellers and budget visitors who value a friendly base and low costs over a central address. Travellers who prefer quiet or privacy should consider a private room and ask about noise levels in shared areas. Taxi fares in Tashkent are low, so reaching the centre in the evening is affordable, and writing down the street name and number helps drivers find the entrance.
