Tehran Travel Forum

I'm really having a difficulty with booking a hotel in Tehran. Can someone please offer me a working email address of a good mid range or gooood budget hotel (budget no more than $40/nite for a singe....$30 even better. I prefer a central location near the metro. I've sent a few emails but they either bounce or no reply. So far I sent to ATLAS HOTEL (my preference), Hotel Safir, New Naderi Hotel, Iran Sharhahr Hotel, Mashad Hotel, Shiraz Hotel. No luck with any. Thanks!

hi peter.

this is amir in tehran.
do you live in HK now?
what time of the year exactly are you planning to be in teharn? this is important.

i think and i have heard Hotel Naderi on Jomhuri Anevue may be a good option for you (never been there myself though)! i will try to call them and let you know.most cheap iranian hotels do not answer emails!sorry to tell you this.and you cannot make a reservation either.take care, bye

Hi peter ,

I will check some hotels that you mentioned in your e-mail tomorrow.
Hope you have a good trip to Iran. Of course when you come to Tehran you see just an emty city. All people are out for new year holidays. so there is not any traffic and air pollution.

hi.this is amir.i sent you a VT email.please check your inbox.what time are you coming to iran?do you have a visa in hand?if not, it may not be easy at all for you to obtain one.bye.

The Armenian-run old Naderi on Jomhuri street is very nice and has odd but interesting atmosphere. The cafe downstairs is legendary and one of the few liberal sanctuaries in Tehran. It was $20 a night a year ago for a single (possibly 25 I dont remember). The New Naderi is just a few blocks away on a side street, more modern and including breakfast but quite characterless for around $40 a night.
I doubt very much a recommendation is necessary at any time. I have just dropped a number of times and was always given a room.
