On November 4, 2026, Tashkent hosted a ceremony at which Minor Hotels signed a franchise agreement to establish the NH Tashkent hotel under the NH Hotels & Resorts brand.
The event was attended by Sandjar Tadjiyev, Deputy Chairman of the Tourism Committee of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the management of Minor Hotels, and representatives of the NH Hotels & Resorts brand.
International hotel brands entering the national market do more than expand the range of accommodation on offer. They also create additional opportunities to raise Uzbekistan’s profile in the international tourism market, attract new tourist flows and develop the export of services.
“Cooperation with international hotel brands not only raises our country’s profile in the global tourism market, but also opens up greater access to major booking platforms, corporate client networks and international sales channels. This is especially important for developing business and events tourism, attracting foreign guests with high purchasing power, creating new jobs and increasing exports of tourism services,” said Sandjar Tadjiyev, Deputy Chairman of the Tourism Committee.
The NH Tashkent hotel is scheduled to open in early 2027. It will have a total of 151 rooms in Standard, Junior Suite and Deluxe categories.
Guests will have access to a restaurant serving national and international cuisine, a modern gym, and a conference hall for international conferences, business meetings and other events.
The launch of the new hotel will help increase the supply of international-standard accommodation in Tashkent and develop the infrastructure needed for business travel and MICE tourism.
Today, 32 international brands operate in Uzbekistan’s hotel market, and the number of hotels under their management has reached 52. This shows that international hotel operators are increasingly present in the country and that investment interest in the sector is growing.
For reference: The history of the NH brand began in 1978, when its first hotel opened in Spain. Today, the NH Hotels & Resorts network brings together 201 hotels and resorts in 25 countries. The portfolio of the international hotel group Minor Hotels includes more than 560 hotels and resorts on six continents. The group’s international brands include Anantara, Avani, NH Collection, nhow, Oaks and Tivoli.
