Detailed Reviews
A stunning surprise of a stay in Kianpour, Isfahan. This guest house is etched in my memory, making me want to return to Iran again. Clean, comfortable, and traditional. The breakfast room is unbelievably beautiful! Love this place!

Great place. As I found it, Kianpour's Historical Residence is a 150-year-old mansion that has been renovated and converted into a boutique hotel. It features 6 rooms which are but nicely furnished. The suites at the ground floor are spacious. The owner is a young architect and the staff are were very friendly and helpful. It is not very close to the city's main historical square though the route is fun if you care to walk. I recommend it.

The breakfast room - beautifully restored by the owner and his son - as every other review says it looks and feels like a palace. And the breakfast was superb (despite being the only two people staying there) and the staff were unfailingly friendly, helpful generous - but then that applies to pretty much all Iranian people. This place was just a cherry on top

We opted to stay at a B&B styled place instead of a regular hotel and boy were we happy with our choice!
This little property located in the Bid Abad neighborhood of Esfahan gives you the feel of staying with a family but with all the amenities and standards of a hotel, whether it be for their laundry facilities or his penchant for cleanliness.
The owner, Mr Kianpour, is a genuinely helpful guy and very passionate about his work as an architect. Seeing that piece of history in his home is in itself time well spent.
Highly recommended for people who want the B&B experience in a quieter neighborhood of town.

The very first interaction with Mr Moslem Kianpour of KHH was a positive one..He was very prompt in his replies to my emails..this can only be appreciated if you know what it's like to try and reserve your own hotel rooms in Iran via the Internet!
We spent four nights in Isfahan, and staying at KHH was a wonderful accompaniment to a beautiful city..it is a genuine Irani experience, and a very happy one at that.
We stayed in #9..the room and bathroom were a bit of a tight fit for four people, but since we were out most of the time or sitting in the flower filled courtyard--it worked..the room, bathroom, sheets and towels were very clean and the ac worked well..so did the wifi..the courtyard was our favorite spot and we spent many happy hours sipping tea and coffee which was served by the ever smiling Masood..a big thank you also,to the ladies who cleaned our rooms and prepared our breakfast, which was served in the beautiful dining room--a delicious meal with the most generous servings of egg accompanied by Iranian bread,cheese,fruit,butter and jam,honey etcetc..and a yummy beans and mushroom dish.
Mr Kianpour was very helpful and knowledgeable with all our questions on Isfahan..we had dinner at KHH twice and Mr K recommended both the places which home delivered very nice and reasonably priced meals..most convenient.
I hope everyone enjoys their stay as much as we did😊.

We paid in advance through a local friend to the hotel because the owner asked so, other wise he could not reserve the room for us. We paid over USD 200 for 2 nights, 1 night in a room with three beds and 1 night in a room with height of 1.7m where my husband cannot stand at all. The first room is nice, but the second room is very uncomfortable. In the room the bed is just under the air condition, so the wind blew from the air condition made me feel sick. If you turn off the air conditional, because the room is so small and you could hardly breath even thougth the small window was kept open. In both room there is no toile, but you can have your private toilet near the kitchen.
The wifi is not stable. In early in the morning around at 6, you can get access to the internet, however, later you cannot. If you are lucky, in late evening, you can get the access again.
The location is good, by taxi, we paid 50,000 IRR to Imam square with a local friend, but when we took a taxi alone without local friend's company, the driver asked for150,000 IRR. From the bus terminal, the taxi driver asked for 150,000 IRR. To 33 bridge, the taxi driver asked for 120,000 IRR, but you can take bus, it only cost 10,000 IRR per person.

it was my first visit to Iran, very tough place to find a decent accomodation to stay at normal price. Decent accomodation far too expensive, the other are just suffering for comfort. When I found the web site of Kianpour's Historical Residence first, I was happy to find this place to stay, well They squeeze every corner to make a room, they offer me a budget room for 50USD but you cant call it as a room, ceiling is around 1,5m high and at downstairs , there is kitchen and laundry. So very loud. At Kianpour's Historical Residence you are not a guest, you are simple visitor for them, you visit their so called ^^special house^^. you should not touch anywhere ,there are lots of warning signs. But even the owner does not know what he wrotes or not capable of writing and reading English. anyway at the first day we took a shower and place the towel on the floor to be replaced, as you may see attached picture , there is a sign at the every room saying that ' if you place the tower on the floor , that means please change it ' it is explicitly owners rule. so we did as it is ruled. and That night when we return the hotel very very rude and angry owner get mad and question us why we put the towel on the floor, Why we make the towels dirty . I explain him that it was his rule ( written signboard, see the picture ), so we did it as ruled. But He refuse his own rule and make us guilty by placing the towel on the floor. Very funny and rude owner. You should see how mad he was, he just lost his mind , it was really difficult to discuss the people with lost mind. at the end of the arguing, He never ever accept his mistake , He was just mad. He force us the leave his house at the middle of the night. We simple pack the things and gone. That was the horrible experience that I every had after almost 20 years active traveling around the world. Thanks to owner fort his, He make Esfahan and iran so special. Breakfast was really simple and portion might be enough for 12 years kids. if you ask them more I am sure they would try to charge you extra. house is beautiful. courtyard is very nice. right after breakfast we just want to sit at the courtyard and drink another tea. when we ask the coworker for a tea. He was so panicked and run the owner to ask his permission to bring the tea first, and after owner permission he was allowed to bring us tea. That was a very sad moment, I just felt that coworkers are working at the middle age era. But both coworker lady and young guy were very kind. as I told before at this place you are not a guest, just a visitor, even if you scratch a self in the room they ask you to pay ( there is a written sign board in the room ) , you should not touch anywhere in the dining room, and most important the owner is the boss, whatever He says you should be quite and obey his rules. Good luck.

It was an honour and a privilege to stay a couple of nights at this 180 year old home that was loving restored by father and son duo over a 5 year marathon effort. Make it a point to engage in some historical conversation with the son and you will be richer for the experience. If you love architecture, ask to see pictures of the home when they first bought it and you will appreciate the place you are in that much more... He is a great host.
Please note that not every room has an internal bathroom - so if that is a requirement, please specify that. From this wonderful house it's about a 20 minute walk to the main square and mosque. Another 20 mins will get you to the bridge.
This is a place to stay for a real experience of Esfahan and Iran.

Kianpour and his wife made my stay in esfahan. they have been incredibly helpful and the hotel is gorgeous. The historical house is location of the hotel unlike some other guests said is actually perfect - as it sits in between Masjid-e Jame and Nashgh-e Jahan, but located in a residential and non-touristic area.
The room was impeccable and the Kianpours were extremely helpful and brought their attention to detail to the extreme.
Mr Kianpour is an architect and specialises in renovation of historical residence, you can really talk to him about history and architecture of esfahan.
Highly recommended!
