Damghan Tourist Hotel

Top choice in Iran


With multi-domed roofs, this cosy, well-appointed hotel is designed to faintly resemble a caravanserai. It offers full midrange facilities, wi-fi and a basic buffet breakfast (free for guests). It’s beside Park-e Shahrdari, five minutes’ walk north from Chaharshir Sq and the Imamzadeh Jafar.

The restaurant has a menu translation in English but only the Farsi version shows prices (mains IR187,000 to IR308,000).
