There is an increasing number of guesthouses and ecolodges in Iran. Although Iran's tourism industry lacks luxury and chain hotels the development of hotels with a well-accepted standard has largely helped the tourism industry. In recent years, attention to rural and local tourism has created a new target market by the name of rural tourism. In this style of tourism, travelers not only get acquainted with Iran's nature and culture as well as with the rural subculture, but they can also experience local accommodations to help the local tourism industry.  List of Iran Hotels

what is your accommodation style?

- Homestays, guesthouses, Hostels, and eco-lodges

There are a lot of guesthouses, Hostels, and ecolodges in Iran. The specific rules have been established by the Iran Touring &  Organization to establish these places. One of the most important is the Family Ownership Act. These places must be family businesses run by locals, who have an overview of their area. Travelers are welcomed by the family in their own house, where they live and which has only a few rooms.
Eco-lodges follow the same principle, focusing on the benefits of accommodation for the empowerment of the local community and the sharing of environmental concerns. These houses are made with local materials, decorated with handmade decorations, and often have traditional local characteristics, such as qanat, wood ovens, etc. In eco-lodges, tourists are generally invited to sleep in the traditional Persian style, that is, on a mattress on the floor.
These kinds of accommodations offer invaluable insights into the local culture. Staying with locals is the best way to have access to wonderful and pure natural sites known only by them, and discover the traditional culture and sub-culture of local people. Also, it's a way for travelers to support the locals who promote their region and local business.  Tehran's Top Hostels

- Apartment Hotel

Another way to have a great time in Iran and enjoy a semi-luxurious stay in the country and its different types of hotels is to book a room in an Apartment Hotel. Unfortunately, most hotel apartments are located in big cities and there are no decent apartments in smaller cities. This type of hotel gives its customers the possibility of cooking in a beautiful kitchen and living in spacious rooms so that everyone feels the home, even though it is located kilometers from their home.

- Stay at Iranian hostels

All major and medium-sized cities in Iran now have a large hostel offer, perfectly suited to backpackers. Despite their rather low prices, this does not mean they lack comfort or charm. On the contrary, many of these hostels are traditional houses, with rooms organized around a central courtyard. The main difference from hotels is that they usually offer shared rooms, like dorms. However, many hostels also have a few private rooms with two or three beds, for couples or families. The other difference with hotels is that these establishments are generally local businesses, of smaller capacity, therefore with fewer rooms. You may want to book in advance if you plan to visit Iran during the high season. Hostels have a more intimate atmosphere than hotels, so it's a great place to meet other travelers and chat with the owners.

- Camping in Iran

Iran has so many natural wonders that it can be tempting to just pitch a tent and sleep under the stars. You can have the opportunity to experience sleeping outdoors with a guide in the middle of the desert, on top of a mountain, or a beautiful sandy beach coast. The Iranians themselves love to go out and you can see a lot of tents near the cities on weekends. However, there are no organized campsites in Iran, with bathrooms and electricity. It is a great experience for nature lovers, who are looking for a way to enjoy the incredible landscapes of Iran while surpassing themselves. In Iran, travelers also have the rare chance to share the life of the nomadic tribes and to camp under their traditional tent during their migration. It is a unique opportunity to discover their way of life and their specific culture.

How to book your accommodation

It's possible to book some hotels and hostels through their website and email addresses from outside Iran. However, due to the difficulty of using international credit cards in Iran, you might not always be able to fully pay for your stay in advance.
