Right in the centre of the city, the Atlas is a solid, good-value mid-range hotel that inspires regular good reports. Set around an inner courtyard, rooms here are large and service is better tha…

The Ferdossi Grand has long been the choice of upper mid-range travellers seeking a bed near Tehran's main sights. Great location, yes, but in years past we always described it as 'comfortable' -…

If ever there was a hotel whose atmosphere revolved around one man, this is it. Mr Mousavi is fabulous and is the very personification of Persian hospitality. It's his enthusiasm and help that ma…

Take note: if service and fastidious cleanliness are important to you, stop reading now. If you're willing to relax your standards a little in the name of character and price, this atmospheric ol…

The Melal's luxurious apartments are a taste of how the wealthy live in Tehran. For your bundles of cash (just imagine the rials!) you get large spaces with two or three bedrooms, all decorated w…

White leather couches might not be your thing, but if you're prepared to forgive some of the interior design you'll find the Raamtin Residence an ideal upmarket stay. Fitted out for business peop…

Metres from Metro Mellat. Disappointing. Rooms have shower but no toilet.

Was the Hyatt in a previous incarnation and is a looooong way from anywhere except the International Trade Fair Ground.

Rooms at the back are best.

Near Sarkis Cathedral, the small, mirrored foyer leads to big rooms with huge bathrooms, though it's best to ask for one away from the main road.

In a lane beside the Bank Melli, the modern rooms here are quiet, clean and have TV, fridge, fan and pokey bathroom. The hotel has a small restaurant, too. Fair value.

Former Sheraton that's almost, but not quite, worth it for the Saturday Night Fever flashbacks. Tired, overpriced rooms, though all have free internet.

Quiet place with helpful, engaging service but worn, overpriced rooms and squat toilets. Long-discussed renovation can't come soon enough.

If you don't mind a bit of peeling paint and a walk to the bathroom, this no-frills place set around a courtyard is welcoming, quiet and good value. The manager speaks some English. It's in the s…

The basic rooms here have a basin inside and are marginally more spacious than the hotel's neighbours, though front rooms are still very noisy. There's not much English. Bathrooms are shared.

The small, recently renovated rooms are clean and the welcome is friendly enough. Toilets are squats and some rooms don't have bathrooms.

Reliable. That pretty much sums up the Iranshahr, where the rooms are reliably clean and the service is reliably well-disposed. Solid.

At the northeastern corner of Bagh-e Laleh, this place was once the InterContinental and still has some of Tehran's best rooms, everything you'd expect in a five-star establishment, plus a great …

A recent facelift has transformed the Mashad into a good-value, well-located midrange option. Rooms are smallish but attractively furnished, and those on the 4th floor and above have some views i…

The rooms and shared bathrooms are tiny, but the mainly helpful management have long made it the choice for those on the tightest budgets. There's only one shower, however, and front rooms are ho…

Set around a small courtyard away from the noise of Amir Kabir St, this 22-room place is one of the best deals in the area for its price, friendly managers and location above a very local chaykha…

If the 'old' Naderi is a product of the '50s, this place is certainly a '70s child. The rooms aren't quite as vast as the lobby, but they're cleaner than those in the Naderi and come with breakfa…

Style? Ahm, no. The Parasto is as no-frills as it gets but the rooms are spotlessly clean and staff welcoming, making it a reliable lower-midrange choice. There's also a reasonably priced restaur…

Located behind the old US embassy grounds, the Safir is probably better known for its subterranean Indian restaurant. But the three-star standard rooms in this long-running little hotel won't dis…
