Malika Kheivak

This 22-room hotel in the heart of the Ichon-Qala is one of Khiva's most modern and comfortable choices, making it popular with tour groups. The furnishing and fittings are modern and stylish, with wooden floorboards, good bathrooms and comfortable mattresses and there's a good cafe-restaurant here too. The Malika chain has two additional upmarket offerings just outside the North and West Gates.
