Triple · Double Standard

A hostel rather than a hotel, in a courtyard house on Neshat Street.

Fifteen room types inside the Hasan Abad bazaar beside Naqsh-e Jahan Square, sold across three grades, economy, standard and VIP, with a shah-neshin and a vaziri room at the top of the range.

Three of the six have their bathroom outside the room rather than in it, and one corner twin has a ceiling of about 170 centimetres, which the listing states plainly and taller guests should take seriously.

Four rooms in an alley off Mirdamad Street, past the Shaterbashi bazaar. No singles; rooms sleep two to five. Very small, in a working part of the old city rather than a tourist one.

Twin no Balcony · Double no Balcony · Twin with Balcony

In the Jolfa quarter, the Armenian district Shah Abbas settled in the seventeenth century, a minute from the Vank Cathedral. The rooms are split between an old building and a new one: the old side holds the Yerevan single, the Isfahan double, a shah-neshin triple and a five-bed named Jolfa, while the new side adds balconies and rooms looking onto the grounds. Choose the side deliberately, because they are not the same experience.

A restored traditional house in Isfahan's old quarter, a few streets from the Hakim Mosque, with eleven rooms around a courtyard.

Two of the dearer rooms are the sardab and the howz-khaneh on the cool lower floor, the rooms a Persian house used to retreat into in July, and both are windowless.
