Hostel is closed, we could park our car in the backyard. They tried to sell us a room in the nearby Orchid hotel. But guy at the reception was very unfriendly. We ended up staying in the azardi hotel nearby. Very clean and nice middle class hote. Was even cheaper than the orchid hotel. We paid € 28,- for the suite.

This place is perfect for Overlander. Safe parking and helpfull guys. And very close to all the places to visit in Esfahan. We can strongly recommand this hostel in the city center. 10 € for 2 in a Defender with roof top tent, good shower, wifi, clean loo.

Oke place to stay. We had to pay€ 5,- a person at the parking lot (2 kids count for 1 person) or a room with 4 beds for €16,-
We took a room and got a key to the parking lot so we could enter the van whenever we want.
Basic hotel, less charm but secure parking, good garden to hang out and very central location. Actually friendly employees.

I actually had a good experience at the hostel! i coud sleep in my rooftop tent in the backyard without any problem. I had to pay 4 Euro. breakfast is buffet and good (tomato, cheese, cucumber, tea, bread, watermelone and jam) all you can eat. they have a beautiful seating area with shadow in the middle and internet was very good (downloaded even movies). Perfect location because you can walk by foot to every place and they give you a map and advice on what to visit. I would recommend it!

Here is what get: Safe parking close to the major attractions in an ugly backyard, access to shower and WC, simple breakfast and ultraslow WiFi. That said, it is a bit pricy and the owner a bit greedy, offering washing service at 2€/kg, exchange rate 10% below usual etc.

They wanted to sell us a typical (dirty) hostel room for 25 dollars including breakfast for 2 persons. We insisted to sleep in our roof tent at the parking lot which was not possible according to them. After negotiating for 10 minutes (and downgrading their offer from 22 dollars excluding breakfast) we agreed to sleep at the parking lot, including breakfast, for 10 euros. We met a lovely Iranian family later that day, that offered us to stay at their house. Unfortunately the hostel wouldn't allow us to take the car from the parking lot, even though we had already paid for the night. So the Iranian family had to bring us back to the hostel the next day. Only benefit of the hostel is that you can park high cars, because most parking lots aren't suitable for high cars (ours is 2.40m) in Esfahan. We would not come back again to this place.

Vehicles can be as high as you want, but just fairly wide. As of today prices are 12usd or 10€ per vehicle. Hot shower available.

Disappointing place to stay, yes IT is central but very expencive. You van park at the back, but you lag the same as forward sleeping in the dorm. But the city is verry Nice.
