Arian Hotel is the most well-appointed hotel in Hamadan, and the only one with its own website. Nestled among greenery, in stark contrast to the barren mountain backdrop, the Arian is invitingly decorated, unlike many of the other hotels in the city.

Don't be put off by the kitschy, loudly colored lobby--the Baba Taher has some of the nicer rooms in town. For Hamadan, the rooms are on the pricier side, but the hotel is located next to the Baba Taher Oryan Tomb shrine and its balconies look toward the Baba Taher park and Alvand Mountain. The bazaar and history museum are also located nearby.

If you are looking to be centrally located, the streets around Buali are filled with stores, bakeries and restaurants. For the most four-star experience in Hamadan, book one of Buali's suites, which are clean and spacious, and come with tiled bathrooms and balconies. The other rooms are considerably smaller and less comfortable.

The Eram is also goes by the name of Azadi Hamadan or Engelhab hotel. Though it is not in the city center, this area of the city is quieter and less hectic. Though the marble lobby offers an impressive welcome, the rooms have not been renovated or updated in some time.

Unlike many hotels in the bustling city center, Hotel Yass has its name written in the Latin alphabet on the outside of the building. To find the reception desk, you need to head to the third floor of the building, but be prepared--the owners don't speak English. While Yass has a prime location, the bathrooms and beds are older.

In Hamadan, you will also find a number of simple guesthouses called "mosaferkhaneh." These are basic dorm- or hostel-style accommodations. Most mosaferkhaneh have four beds per room and squat toilets. There are typically separate restrooms for men and women. As of September 2010, a mosaferkhaneh would cost less than $10 per night, but inflation is an issue, so reconfirm before your trip.
