5/5 Amin A. 5 years ago on Google
In
one
sentence,
this
place
was
very
accommodating
and
at
the
same
time
a
great
place
to
experience
the
real
life
of
Kandovan
living
inside
the
rocks.
We
went
to
Kandovan
late
in
March
and
were
able
to
see
the
astounding
mountains
covered
with
snow
all
around.
Upon
arrival,
we
were
treated
by
local
Tabriz-Koftah
for
dinner
made
by
Mr.
Bahari's
—
the
owner's
—
wife.
He
was
very
welcoming
and
helpful.
He
had
made
arrangements
for
having
some
locals
to
help
us
with
carrying
our
baggages
and
stuff
up
to
the
suite.
It
was
a
~2
minutes
moderate
climbing
a
narrow
road
to
the
suite
that
passed
through
the
beautiful
cone
shape
rocks.
It
was
a
little
challenging
to
climb
the
road
up
as
it
was
partly
covered
with
thick
ice
but
it
was
manageable
since
they
were
coated
by
sand
and
mud
and
they
were
not
as
slippery
if
your
foot-wares
have
a
fair
grip.
I
personally
assisted
my
old
Father
to
get
up
there
every
time.
However,
it
was
totally
worth
it
as
it
gave
us
the
experience
of
locals
commuting
among
the
beautiful
rocks
and
enjoying
being
in
the
middle
of
cone
rocks.
I
later
found
out
that
Hotel
Laleh
—
the
biggest
hotel
in
Kandovan
—
has
so
many
stares
(around
100
if
not
more)
and
is
nowhere
close
to
real
daily
life
in
Kandovan.
My
take
was
that
our
suite
was
the
best
one
available
with
the
same
owner
and
my
guess
is
that
it
was
the
best
in
the
area.
It
had
great
amenities
like
like
Jacuzzi
and
underground
heating
system
which
was
crucial
for
winter
time
when
the
ground
can
be
humid
and
cold
inside
the
rocks.
the
Jacuzzi
has
only
room
for
two
people
at
a
time
but
it
was
a
nice
perk.
We
were
a
group
of
about
10
people
and
were
able
to
sleep
with
no
real
issues.
Our
only
complain
was
that
the
pillows
were
too
stiff
:).
There
were
a
queen
size
bed
in
the
bedroom
and
enough
roll-overs
for
others
to
sleep
on.
The
best
part
of
the
suit
in
my
opinion
was
the
barbecue
next
to
the
entrance.
The
second
night
was
by
far
my
best
night
in
my
entire
stay
in
Iran
with
my
beloved
family.
We
bought
chicken
and
lamb
from
local
shops
and
barbecued
them
while
it
happened
to
snow
and
it
was
foggy
too
in
the
middle
of
cone
rocks.
OMG!
It
was
an
amazing
experience!
That
said,
being
able
to
freely
hangout
outside
the
suit
by
the
barbecue
with
music
playing
was
a
big
advantage
over
Hotel
Laleh
I
believe.
When
you
get
down
there
where
you
park
your
car,
make
sure
you
checkout
the
locals
shops.
They
have
local
Honey,
sun-dried
Plums,
and
some
handmade
stuff.
They
also
watch
your
car(s)
when
you
are
up
in
the
suit
so
I
recommend
you
treat
them
by
buying
some
stuff
from
them.
A
word
of
advice:
never
miss
Sahand
restaurant's
Lamb
Chenjeh
Kebab
in
Kandovan
village.
It’s
the
best!
I
hope
I
was
able
to
share
my
experience
here
for
other
visitors.
Overall,
I
highly
recommend
this
place.
