It was once the Tehran Hilton

Located on the upper side of Tehran, where the mountains are nearer and the pollution is noticeably less, the Esteghlal offers just what you would expect of a standard 4-5 star hotels. There are two wings, the West is the older section and rooms are a little cheaper. The rooms are big and comfortable, if a little gloomy though they are currently being redecorated. The East Wing, being newer, is fresher but the rooms are smaller. The staff are efficient and helpful, the lobby coffeeshop has been considerably enlarged recently as has the shopping arcade. There are several restaurants, serving both Iranian and European food, and there is an indoor pool and a tennis court.

Unique Quality: The view of the city and the mountains is very fine, and there is a pleasant garden surrounding the hotel. There is good shopping nearby on Valiasr. There's a very nice curio and antique shop in the hotel if you are looking for something special. If you need a small gift for someone local, there's a good florist in the hotel and or you can easily walk to Tavazo, the best nut shop in Tehran.

Recommend a Hotel in Tehran

by FairTraveller

Hello,

We will be in Tehran between May 24-28 for an industry fair.
Can you please recommend a hotel (preferably 3-star) NEAR International Exhibition Area? Is it close to Airport also?

Thanks,
Ali

"International Exhibition Area? Is it close to Airport also?"

Re: Recommend a Hotel in Tehran

by amiriniran

hi,
you are not iranian, right?
anyway, there is NO 3-star hotel near where international exhibitions (Namayeshgahe Beynolmelali) are held. that is for sure. i guarantee you! In fact, the closet hotel to the area in question is Esteghlal Hotel, which is perhaps the most expensive ($150 per night per single room?) hotel in Tehran.

ok. this could be one solution to your problem. there are some nice 3-star hotels (not cheap though) on Taleghani Ave. there is subway station right there there you may take a train all the way to Shahid Haghani Station on the red line. Get out of the station and take the Tajrish bus at the bus depot outside. get off at 'Parkway Bus Stop, where you then can take a taxi to where exhibitions are held. or..... ask your hotel manager for the closest route and easiest direction to 'Namayeshgah'. good luck.amir
