Book Golbahar Boutique hotel

The Golbahar Boutique Hotel is considered one of the finest traditional hotels in Shiraz, ideally situated in the heart of the city on Siboye Boulevard. Housed in a historic residence dating back approximately 180 years to the late Qajar era, this boutique hotel underwent a complete renovation in 2019. Since then, it has welcomed guests while carefully preserving its original architectural charm — from wooden window frames and stained glass to brick walls and traditional decorative features. With just 9 rooms accommodating up to 20 guests, it is a perfect choice for those seeking a warm, intimate atmosphere and an authentic experience of Iran’s rich cultural heritage.

The rooms are styled with traditional Persian decor, yet come fully equipped with modern comforts, including air conditioning, a television, Wi-Fi, tea-making facilities, and en-suite bathrooms with complimentary toiletries. A traditional Iranian breakfast is included in the room rate, offering guests a taste of local cuisine to start their day. Additional services include laundry facilities, paid parking, and 24-hour room service. The staff are fluent in English, ensuring a smooth and welcoming experience for international visitors.

One of the hotel’s most charming features is its picturesque courtyard, complete with a blue-tiled pool, a lush garden, and tall trees, all of which contribute to a serene and peaceful setting perfect for relaxation. Guests can also enjoy authentic local cuisine at the traditional on-site restaurant, where regional specialities such as the popular Shirazi dish ‘kalam polo’ are served.

The hotel’s location is particularly appealing for travellers, with the Shah Cheragh Shrine just 1 kilometre away. Other major attractions — including the Hammam and Vakil Bazaar, the mausoleums of Hafez and Saadi, the Quran Gate, Karim Khan Citadel, and Narenjestan Garden — are all within easy reach and can be visited within minutes. The Nasir al-Mulk Mosque and Eram Garden are also located nearby. For those arriving by air, Shiraz International Airport is approximately a 20-minute taxi ride from the hotel.

The Golbahar Hotel offers more than just accommodation — it provides a genuine cultural experience, blending traditional Iranian hospitality with a historic setting and easy access to the rich heritage of one of Iran’s most beautiful cities.
