5 Stars
The Grand Turkmen Hotel (no longer run by Sheraton) is one of the most popular places to stay in Ashgabat. There are 5 stars proudly emblazoned on the hotel sign, but it's probably fair to say that there are a couple more of those than would be found elsewhere...
Unique Quality: Probably the 2nd or 3rd best hotel in the city. One of the best locations in Ashgabat, right opposite is the Russian Bazaar, and also the British Pub/Florida nightclub. The hotel pool is also one of the most popular in the city, and open to public.

Turkmenistan's Premier Hotel
Where to start...
Considering just how far from everything familiar you are, it's a lovely place. The rooms are up to western standards on the whole, except for the showers which would run a little and then to a trickle, back and forth. (I learned to seize the opportunities of water running to lather up and rinse.)
The lobby is nice, the casino is there for those so inclined, and the restaurant does a nice job with breakfast, custom cooking omelets to order. There is a pool. It is across the street from a facinating bazaar right downtown where you can see a butcher dissecting a mammal of some sort, the best free show in Ashgabat.
Unique Quality: I can't be sure, but I am almost positive I was under surveillance while I stayed there. It is, after all, a police state. When you talk to someone in a building, you get the party line. When you talk in a car, more party line. When you develop a relationship with someone and you talk with them between the car and the building, you get the truth.
If you look closely into the mirrors of both the bedroom and the bathroom, you can see what appears to be a camera lens. Some female visitors put a sheet over both, but as a guy, hey, it's a free show. If they want to see my gut and whatever else I have, I kinda got used to it. I suppose you could call this a unique quality

Internet Available here; poor value hotel
This place is apparently 'the' place to stay in Ashgabat for businessmen in the country to take advantage of the massive natural gas opportunities.
For the rest of us (!), Internet access is available at the hotel for the equivalent of a wopping $5 per hour. Be careful not to go over even a second as they will try to bump the charge for an additional half hour.
Despite being dressed rather well (well enough that I could have been someone looking for a room when I arrived), the tone and attitude of the staff was horrible. I suppose if it's the best hotel in town by far they can charge people on expense accounts a fortune and not worry about the service!
