    The management will treat you terribly. They'll try switch prices last minute and squeeze you into rooms which aren't real dorms to make as much money as possible. You're just a number to them. The beds aren't cleaned for new people, the shared toilet and shower is the worst I've seen in a hostel and the WiFi is poor at best. Backpackers go there yes, but the sooner they switch to another hostel the better.

    This hostel is still overpriced in regard of what it offers. Private rooms can barely fit a bed, are noisy and cigarette smoke from downstairs reaches the rooms. Breakfast is limited, and only max 2 cups of tea before they start charging money. Also they randomly close the inside common area at 20:00, which is rather inconvenient since coffee/tea are not available like advertised. This is especially annoying waiting for a night bus with temperatures dropping to near 0. Can't say Amir Kabir is the worst hostel I've been to, but I'm sure there are better choices in Isfahan.

    This place is not very good. The beds are comfortable and the breakfast is alright, but the amenities are crap. One toilet doesn't flush, the other has a non-closing door. The showers flood. The wifi is slow and regularly doesn't work. The rooms are uninspiring and the interior reminds me of a horror movie. The staff were very nice, but seemed stressed, or very badgering a lot to get you into one of their overpriced tours. Find somewhere else

    Amir Kabir Hostel is just a basic hostel, dorm have no windows and bad soundproofing! Shared toilets are small, and more or less clean. Breakfast is basic! Staff are not really friendly. Ok there is a lot of travelers, so if you want to meet and talk to people and don't care about the comfort this place could be ok, but if you don't care about meeting backpackers and just need a good accommodation, you can just continue 1 km heading the bridge and you will find a better room in some Hotel for the same price

    The hotel in the center of Isfahan. Its location is colse to nearly every historical places. Don' t keep your expectation high. Travel, see around, have a fun and go to the bed in the evening. English speaking staff.

    We were travelling in Isfahan when we got robbed and lost everything, including our travel documents. I just approached the receptionist of the hotel (which we hadn’t stayed at before) and told him our situation. He was amazingly helpful and even gave me a discount for the room. The robbery didn’t change my view about Iranians. The lady at he hostel asked me several times for updates. She prayed for us. Everyone at the hostel was just wonderful. Without the help of the hostel, we would have had 2 tough nights in Isfahan. If you are looking for a budget and reliable place to stay in Isfahan, this is definitely the one you’re looking for.

    (Translated by Google) I can not recommend it though it is listed on how to walk on the earth. There is a better place if you look for it. The staff also lie. I'm trying to take a double by saying that I'm free but I'm free. The toilet on the first floor was not locked. There was no hot shower in the morning. Domi is 10 $, but one out of four outlets. Many people are charging in the courtyard because they are not enough. Still it is not enough. A single is about $ 15, and the area is about one and a half. The staff said that central heating can not be used, but it was usable properly. There was a spacious and clean twin inn with bath and toilet for 16 $ near Enghelab Square, so I moved there the next day. (Original) 地球の歩き方に載ってるけどおすすめできない。探せばもっといい所がある。スタッフも嘘つくし。シングル空いてるのに空いてないって言ってダブルをとらせようとしたり。 一階のトイレは鍵がかからなかった。朝はホットシャワーが出なかった。 ドミは10$だが、コンセントは4人に1つ。足りないので中庭で充電してる人多し。それでも足りてないけど。 シングルは15$、広さは1帖半くらい。 スタッフはセントラルヒーティングは使えないと言ったが、ちゃんと使えた。 Enghelab Square近くに16$でバス・トイレ付の広々した綺麗なツインの宿があったので翌日はそちらに移動した。

    Very good hostel to meet backpackers. The dormitories are very nice and cozy. They also organize tours runned by a enormously friendly guy. He brought us that night to a very cheap restaurant for free and helped us organize a birthday for a friend of mine. Recommended for every backpacker.

    For the price range this a really good place to stay as a backpacker, dormitories are not too big, relatively clean and there is a nice courtyard for breakfast and tea in the evening. Helpful staff and walking distance to the city center. Restrooms could be better maintained.

  • 4/5 Marcosgll 6 years ago on Google
    Very mixed feelings. If you're lucky, you'll end up in a beautiful dorm with views to the patio, spacious, and with great people. If you're unlucky, you'll end up in dorm 1, with a window over the reception onto the road (i.e. high levels of noise and pollution), and with the red signpost of the hotel on top of it, which was ON for the whole night (giving the room a red hue for the entire time). Breakfast however was good, the patio is beautiful, the travellers I met were really nice, and the hotel is cheap! Con: No lockers! Sleep with your money on your body or else risk the unthinkable!

    First, the staff was very friendly, the location is very central and prices are cheap. But the rooms are very poor, you have nearly no space. The shared bathrooms are also really simple and the breakfast gets boring after the second day. That's why I have to say I won't come back here and can't recommend this Hotel to you!

  • 4/5 Juan A. 6 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very central. 10 minutes walk to the plaza del imán and the bazaar. Buses at the door. 91 to the river to see the bridges. The patio is very nice, in winter it gets dark early and it's cold but in summer it will surely be very noisy. A sink and shower for each sex and plant. But for the price it's very good. (Original) Muy céntrico. 10 minutos andando a la plaza del imán y el bazar. Autobuses en la puerta. El 91 hacia el río para ver los puentes. El patio muy bonito, en invierno se hace de noche pronto y hace frío pero en verano seguramente será muy ruido. Un lavabo y ducha para cada sexo y planta. Pero por el precio está muy bien.

    Great place to stay in Esfahan. Its one of the few backpack places so a good place to meet other travellers. The staff is friendly and can help you with anything you want, boat tickets, bus tickets or just a nice talk! Breakfast is oke and rooms are nice and clean. Only thing is that there are no lockers available.

  • 3/5 Samaneh A. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Compared to the rest of the cruise ships, it is relatively clean and tidy. Well, you should not expect too much from a cruise ship. We saw his rooms clean and clean, but because the bathroom and bathroom were outside the room, we did not get the room. There's a double room at 80s saying that it's not a bad price for a traveler home. Its construction is also old. It has a good location and it takes 33 minutes by car within 5 minutes (Original) در مقایسه با بقیه مسافرخونه ها جای نسبتا تمیز و مرتبی هست. خب از یه مسافرخونه نباید انتظار خیلی بالایی داشت. ما اتاق هاشو دیدیم مرتب و تمیز بودن اما چون سرویس بهداشتی و حمام هر طبقه بیرون از اتاق و مشترک بود، اتاق نگرفتیم. اتاق دو نفره شبی ۸۰ گفتن که خب قیمت بدی نیست واسه مسافر خونه. ساختمونش هم قدیمی هست. موقعیت مکانی خوبی داره و با ماشین در عرض ۵ دقیقه میشه رفت ۳۳پل

    (Translated by Google) It was certainly cheap and the location near the sightseeing spot was good. The staff was friendly and the exchange rate was not bad. I was assigned a single room, but I missed it because the visit did not open well with the key. (Original) 확실히 저렴하고 관광지 가까운 점은 좋았음. 직원들도 친절하고 환전도 나쁘지 않은 환율로 가능했음. 싱글룸 배정받았는데 방문이 열쇠로 잘 열리지 않아서 별 하나 뺐음.

  • 3/5 Mr B. 5 years ago on Google
    The hotel is within walking distance to the Nasq-e-Jahn square, and is well served by bus to the other city highlights. There is a very nice interior terrace. The shared bathrooms are very clean and there's plenty of hot water. There's one European toilet and a number of squat toilets...which help develop the muscles in your legs! Staff are really nice and friendly and there was a good atmosphere in the place. We had heard the reception staff the previous day telling a fellow traveler that the cost of a taxi to the same bus station was about 7000 - 10000 toman. The driver who took us charged us 15000 toman. Suggest just using a regular taxi service for a better price So a good choice for backpackers or budget travelers.

  • 4/5 Anne B. 4 years ago on Google
    still the same place with the same kindness as before! should just improve a little bit concerning the yard.. does not cost a lot to add some flowers and plants, to get rid of the white sheet Under the main tree!, also get rid of the vintage TV set in some rooms.. , placed on the fridge : no way, no use….. also , the air conditionning system should be maintained in order to be set on off or on… too much paint on the grid. the staff is very nice. if improvements are made, why not increasing the price per night by one euro or dollar. it is Worth! and foreign people would understand that a room for two at such a reasonnable price can be increased by 10% or 15 %, without any problem! we , european people can afford that small increase in our budget! AmirKabir is good, so is the whole staff!

  • 2/5 Simon C. 4 years ago on Google
    Poor quality hostel that has the same owners as the 7 hostel around the corner (I saw the same manager in each one). It's acceptable for one night if you just need a place to crash. Otherwise, it is very easy to find much better value for money elsewhere.

  • 4/5 Dağ&bayır 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) In the center of Isfahan, cheap and suitable for those who do not have high expectations. The rooms facing the central courtyard are not bad. The staff speak English and best of all, they make the reservation for you to travel from the hotel. (Original) İsfahan'ın merkezinde, ucuz ve yüksek beklentileri olmayanlar için uygun bir yer. Orta avluya bakan odalar fena değil. Personel İngilizce biliyor ve hepsinden önemlisi, sizin için otelden seyahat rezervasyonu yapıyorlar.

  • 4/5 Mark M. 4 years ago on Google
    It's a bit rough around the edges but at this price point - I paid €4 for a dorm room in October - you absolutely can't complain. The warm welcome is present and sincere. Some visitors may dislike the lack of lockers in dorm rooms but that is quite common (though by no means the status quo) in Iranian hostels.

Toilet or shower is not so good. Just the right price! (Original) 이스파한에서 가장 대중적인 여행자 숙소!! 싸게 묵을 수 있으며 조식이 나온다. 중앙 정원에서 언제나 편하게 쉴 수 있다. 와이파이는 됐다가 안됐다가... 화장실이나 샤워시설은 그다지 좋지 않다. 딱 가격만큼 하는 숙소!!
