SILK ROAD HOTEL

The inscription, a black graffiti on a ochre background, just before the arrival at Jameh mosque on the right, is unmissable. Follow the arrows, take the narrow entrance and take care to lower your head. Strengths of the establishment: The location of the hotel was very central and the staff were very helpful. Sit around a small table or large collective table, or one of the divans, to taste a tea or enjoy a traditional Iranian meal. Just delicious! In the morning, the courtyard, its tables and its divans are reserved for guests. The house opens to tourists from 10 a. m. for the restaurant. The atmosphere is very friendly, the boss particularly friendly, welcoming and accommodating. A precious address. From the roof, you enjoy a breathtaking view over the whole old town. The hotel also works with travel agencies and can offer you circuits across the country.
