Safavi Hotel

Esfahan


This attractively decorated hotel is in a great location between Naqsh-e Jahan (Imam) Sq and the Zayandeh River. Murals and mirror work in the common areas spice up the experience and rooms, though more functional, are comfortable with satellite TV and good-sized bathrooms. The hotel is set back from Felestin St, minimising noise.
