Detailed Reviews
Back during the 1992 war (yes, hard to imagine but there was a short civil war in Tajikistan), this Hotel, with its very central location and solid Soviet infrastructure (as part of the Intourist hotels accredited to accept foreigners in the USSR) was the hub of action, with ample opportunity to mingle with sojourning journalists and diplomats. It was also the only place in town one could get a decent hot shower and those of us who lived in apartments used to pay 20 dollars for a room just for the shower twice a week. Flash forward to 2011, and the Hotel has recently been renovated, with a glitzy lobby, neon lights and modern facilities. It seems to have lost much of its soul, however. Feels bare, lifeless.
Having said this, its central location, within walking distance of all government buildings, next to the central Park, the central department store (Tsum) and a stone's throw from the fabulous traditional teahouse (Chaikhaneh Rahat) still make its location unbeatable. It also has an ATM machine in the lobby, a travel agency, a tourist shop and the ubiquitous crew of young men that sit on the couches and 'guard' the guests at night. The new Hyatt, with its gorgeous design and colors, spa, wall-to-wall windows overlooking the mountains, and gourmet buffet breakfast, may seem to put Hotel Tojikiston to shame. But even if the prices are incomparable (although I hear of people getting similar rates using various discounts), I still would recommend Hotel Tojikistan because of its location if you want to walk on the two main roads of Dushanbe and if you want to see Tajiks actually. A Hotel Serena is being constructed which will put even the Hyatt to shame. But unless you are a prince or on a very high expense account, you can expect to go to tea there only.
I still regret though that Hotel Tojikistan has such tiny tiny single rooms (a reviewer rightly called them cells), especially since their balconies open up on the back dump/garage/power plant. Apparently they are going to build a pool there. Let's hope it materializes and that it comes with a green garden. The rooms though have the basic amenities you need. The elevator plays music, which is a good thing because it takes ages to go up. Look on the bright side. Hotel Tojikistan may not be the best bet in town, but it is the most genuine relic of the Soviet world going Chinese comfort class. Stay there for authenticity at least.

My experience with Hotel Tojikiston:
-Unfriendly staff, who don't speak proper English. You have to ask one thing at least 2- 3 times before they answer your question and even then, not correctly!
- The interior design is a caricature of Tajik culture. Spacious lobby and restaurant, but dark and not at all cozy.
- Conference facilities: very dark rooms - no windows and the lighting is quite dim. The equipment is questionable too.
- Little diversity in food/menu: only Tajik cuisines. Misinformation: I was told there would be buffet for lunch for US$20, but was charged US$30 apparently because of my menu choice. There is also a Chinese restaurant if you like Chinese food, but don't expect a good one.
- Spa: the price is far too high for what you actually get.

As a young British student of Russian in then Leningard I had the opportunity to spend an entire week in Hotel Tojikiston in 1991 and it was for this very reason I decided to revisit the hotel. I was not at all disappointed, as my stay was really good and very enjoyable. The views from the rooms facing Dushanbe's Central Park are just phenomenal (politely demand a room with such a view) and the staff ever so helpful. Simply put, nothing was too much trouble for the front-desk team, even to the extent that upon request they swapped my rear-facing room for the aforementioned one of the park.
The location is also stellar. You are right in the heart of the city and most places can be reached on foot. I found Indian, Georgian and Tajik restaurants a stone's throw away. The in-house Chinese restaurant is also top notch. You will not go hungry during your stay.
Over the years I have stayed in most of Dushanbe's major hotels - the Hyatt Hotel, Marian's Guest House, Asia Hotel, and Mercury Hotel among others - and all are good places to stay, but I would not hesitate fora moment to return to Hotel Tojikiston.

Well, Hyatt is perhaps the best hotel in Dushanbe, and I regret that we were placed in Tojikistan - was kinda out of my control, as it was an organised event. The elevator stucked in the 5th floor and you had to wait at least 5-10 min in the dark before it started back on - some technicians used crude method with their hammers to bring it to life, please avoid the far left elevator out of the three they have in the building. The rooms are ok, free internet that always helps, the resturant was ok, but given the price could have been better. The GYM was under construction, the suana didn't work, and the disco was a kinda creepy, if I were a stingy guy I would have asked for a clear discount for the non-deliverable services. USD 150 a night is way too expensive for this experience.

I enjoyed my time at this hotel, the food was good, I found the staff friendly and helpful, the room was nice, my single rom was much smaller than the twin rooms but still very nice. The location is fantastic, my only critisim would be that the carpets in the rooms could do with a good clean and shampoo, but the supply slippers which I wore while in the room so it was fine, I would stay here again, Tajikistan has proven to be a lovely surprise.

Breackfast is also on a 3* level...

Let me start by saying that to get the full Trip Adviser picture you also need to look at the reviews of this hotel under the western spelling of it's name Tadjikistan Hotel. The hotel is very well positioned for government buildings and a short walk away from the presidential palace, the new museum and the huge flagpole with its equally huge national flag situated in the accompanying gardens. The hotel itself is a soviet era Intourist hotel which has been revamped quite succesfully but still has a difficult to place 'soviet feel' about it. The reception staff are very helpful but by the reception there is situated a table with young men in suits who in 'the good old days' would have been KGB type officers assigned to 'look after' their foreign guests. Today they are harmless young guys who are genuinly looking for ways to help. The rooms vary (I would say) SIGNIFICANTLY!! I looked into double accommodation rooms which were spacious and airy. BUT my single room (622) was very small (though adequate just for sleeping) BUT the bathroom was tiny, and as in all soviet style hotels in desperate need of a couple of hours of a handyman's work to replace washers, screw things together and fix leaks. Be careful with the shower curtain although it is easy to put back up again. The single bed in the room had a very hard mattress ( which you either like or detest) and the mini bar (as in all soviet style hotels) is empty and really serves as a fridge for whatever foodstuffs you bring in to the room. The coffee making facilities are just that - facilities. No actual coffee or tea bags and you would need to fill the mini kettle from the 1/2 litre bottles of mineral water supplied FOC. No wardrobe to hang your clothes so you literally live out of your suitcase (which as a business traveller is OK as I travel light), and most importantly despite this room being at the end of the long corridor the free WIFI worked well - in the room - but nowhere else in the hotel. The breakfast bufet was basic but sufficient. The numerous staff here were in stark contrast to the speed of service. Didn't get a chance to try the in house chinese restaurant. For all of the above you do pay a lot in comparison to hotels in the west. Cannot compare to other hotels in Dushanbe as this was my first visit.

After looking on the pictures on the internet, I though 150 usd pr night for a single was way to much. But as I needed to book online, I did not have many options.
But arriving here was a pleasure. Very nice lobby, friendly staff, and nice room. The elevators are a bit slow, and the bathroom small (and no mirror in the room), but apart from that - great.
Restaurant is not so good, basic (but cheap). We had dinner at Hyatts one night, and Delhi Durbar the other, liked both.
I think this hotel is the same as the one called Best Eastern Tajikistan here?

Tojikiston is a good hotel. It has a nice lobby with the bar, nice rooms. Earlier it used to be 'soviet', but now, after reconstruction, it's a fine hotel. I stayed there several times. Wouldn't particularly recommend their 'suites', because for me a simple single room looked more cozy and less expensive.

The hotel was new and clean. But the beds were VERY HARD. My back was killing me by the end of the week. Tiles were missing in the bathroom but heat and plumbing, etc. were all up to Europen standards. Food in the restaurant was very basic. Had a friend who had a real biting insect problem after our stay.
