Iconic five-star hotel and Tehran's tallest building, offering panoramic city views from its tower location. Features multiple award-winning restaurants, a rooftop revolving restaurant, extensive conference facilities, and luxurious accommodations with impeccable service.
The Parsian Azadi Hotel is one of Tehran's most iconic landmarks — a 22-floor tower completed in 1975 that remains among the tallest hotel structures in Iran. Located adjacent to Azadi Square in western Tehran, near the neighborhoods of Evin and Shahrak-e Gharb, the hotel stands approximately 15 kilometers from Tehran's historical center and around 12 kilometers from Mehrabad International Airport, making it a practical base for travelers with early domestic flights. Azadi Tower (Shahyad Tower), Iran's most recognized architectural symbol, is within a short drive.
The hotel is a flagship property of the Parsian Hotels group, Iran's largest state-affiliated hospitality chain. The tower's exterior is unmistakably modernist — a bold structural statement of its era — while interiors have been updated with contemporary furnishings and refined finishes. Upper-floor rooms offer sweeping panoramic views over the Tehran metropolitan skyline and, on clear winter days, the snow-capped Alborz Mountains stretching across the northern horizon.
Guest rooms are available in several categories from deluxe to presidential suites, all featuring high-quality bedding, satellite television, minibars, and climate control. The hotel's most celebrated feature is its revolving restaurant on the upper floors, which completes a full 360-degree rotation offering a panoramic view of Tehran — one of very few such restaurants in Iran and a notable draw for both hotel guests and Tehran residents celebrating special occasions.
Beyond the revolving restaurant, the property operates multiple dining venues including a main Persian and international restaurant, a café, and around-the-clock room service. The full-service spa includes a hammam, steam rooms, sauna, and treatment rooms. An indoor heated swimming pool and comprehensive fitness center complete the wellness facilities. The hotel operates an extensive conference center with halls accommodating events of varying scales, making it a significant venue for corporate gatherings and governmental meetings. Concierge services are available in multiple languages and can arrange city tours, private airport transfers, and full business support services.
The Parsian Azadi Hotel's western Tehran location gives it a distinctly different character from properties in the central and northern districts — quieter and more suburban, with good road connections to Karaj and the western expressways out of the capital.
