Where to stay
Isfahan
A restored house in the Posht Baroo lanes off lower Chaharbagh, where the rooms keep the old Persian words for them, vosagh, faraghat-khaneh and khab-khaneh, alongside a Qajar royal suite. 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.
Double CIP · Double Royal VIP · Double VIP
On the lower stretch of Chaharbagh between Takhti and Shohada, on the Safavid avenue that runs down towards the river. The rooms are sold in grades rather than types, bronze, silver, gold and several VIP tiers, so the same size of room can cost quite different amounts. Singles and doubles only.
Nine rooms in the Sa'di passage off Ostandari Street, some of them connecting for families. One room has no window. There are no singles, the smallest sleeps two, and Naqsh-e Jahan is a short walk away.
Double · Twin · Triple
Three-star riverside hotel opened in 2024 on Kamal Esmail Street, facing the Zayandeh River and Si-o-se-pol, with meeting rooms suited to small business groups visiting the historic quarter.
We book this stay as part of a trip — with the visa, transport and a guide arranged around it.
