Five Homa Hotels, Five Narratives of Iranian Hospitality / Homa Hotels Group: Where Travel Becomes a Lasting Memory

IranArt: In Iran, certain names instinctively evoke a nostalgic world. “Homa” is one of them. Homa Hotels are part of the collective memory of travel—the pleasure of discovering sights and flavors, staying away from home, and experiencing hospitality. For more than five decades, the group has welcomed Iranian and international travelers in cities with distinct identities, from Tehran and Shiraz to Mashhad and Bandar Abbas.

Homa Hotels offer different narratives of a shared concept: experiencing a city through the window of a nostalgic hotel, local culture, cuisine, encounters, and memories. Each of the five hotels, with its own architecture, facilities, views, and service style, represents a part of Iran’s tourism geography.

 

Homa Hotel Tehran; Tranquility in the Heart of the Capital

 

Tehran is a fast-paced city, yet amid its constant movement there are places to pause. Homa Hotel Tehran, located in Vanak on Vali Asr Street, is one of the capital’s best-known examples of urban tranquility.

This five-star hotel opened in 1973 and was last renovated in 2018. Its 16-story tower has 176 rooms and suites, making it one of Tehran’s longest-established luxury hotels. Its location provides convenient access to commercial, cultural, and recreational centers, while its views range from the hotel garden and green spaces to the Alborz Mountains.

Rooms for Urban Stays

Homa Tehran offers standard twin rooms, Homa Class rooms, Junior Suites, twin suites, and Homa Class Royal Suites for business travelers, tourists, and families. Interior design and amenities seek to bring the comfort of a familiar home into a five-star urban hotel. City views, internet access, 24-hour room service, and full hotel facilities support both business and leisure stays.

The Taste of Tehran at the Homa Table

The hotel’s traditional restaurant, Homa Class restaurant, and other dining spaces offer Iranian and international cuisine. Recent renovation and development of the kitchen infrastructure and Golestan Restaurant reflect the group’s focus on upgrading hospitality standards and equipping the central kitchen with modern hotel-industry technology.

Spaces for Meetings and Events

Homa Tehran is also an established venue for official events, professional meetings, corporate ceremonies, and cultural programs. Negin, Ayeneh, Sadaf, Morvarid, and Zomorod halls, together with meeting rooms, offer different capacities. Zomorod Hall is among the hotel’s venues for formal and large-scale events.

At Homa Tehran, a working day can begin with a formal meeting, continue with lunch, and end in a room overlooking the lights of the capital.

 

Homa Hotel Shiraz; A Stay in the City of Poetry and Gardens

 

Shiraz is more than its historic monuments and gardens. It is an experience of tranquility, poetry, the fragrance of bitter orange blossoms, and Iranian culture. Homa Hotel Shiraz, in the heart of the city, connects the experience of accommodation with this spirit.

Opened in 1972 and renovated in 2016, this five-star hotel stands in the city center beside Azadi Park. With 232 rooms across eight floors, it is one of Shiraz’s largest and longest-established hotels.

Rooms Facing Gardens and Mountains

Depending on their location, the rooms overlook lush gardens, Azadi Park, and the mountains surrounding Shiraz. Standard rooms, twin rooms, and suites serve solo travelers, couples, families, and business guests. The spaces are designed not only for function but also for tranquility and distance from everyday bustle.

In Shiraz, even a simple breakfast can become part of the journey, as morning light enters through the window and the city appears calm before the day begins.

Hospitality in the Neighborhood of Gardens

The hotel’s location makes it a convenient starting point for exploring Shiraz. Eram Garden, Jahan Nama Garden, Bagh-e Safa Bridge, the Tomb of Hafez, and the Tomb of Saadi are within reach.

A stay at Homa Shiraz can therefore become the beginning of a day among quiet streets, historic gardens, Hafez’s poetry, Zand-era architecture, and the evening fragrance of bitter orange.

 

Dining and Event Spaces

Homa Shiraz offers restaurants, reception halls, and event spaces suitable for official, family, cultural, and corporate programs. Hospitality here is part of the culture of travel, reflecting the traditional Iranian view of the guest as someone deserving special attention.

 

Homa Hotel Bandar Abbas; A Stay Beside the Persian Gulf

 

In southern Iran, where sunlight meets sea humidity and the horizon stretches into the blue of the Persian Gulf, Homa Hotel Bandar Abbas offers more than urban accommodation: an experience shaped by the sea, garden, restaurants, and leisure facilities.

Rooms with Views of the Persian Gulf

Homa Hotel Bandar Abbas has 180 rooms and five villas, including twin rooms overlooking the sea and garden, Homa Class rooms, triple rooms, Homa Class Royal Suites, and villas set within the gardens overlooking the sea.

The Homa Class Royal Suite is a special option for travelers seeking more space and a more distinctive stay. A morning here can begin with endless blue, a sea breeze, and a city shaped by commerce, the port, and moving ships.

Morvarid Restaurant; Dining Among the Gardens

Morvarid Restaurant, on the ground floor beside the garden, covers approximately 400 square meters and accommodates 150 guests. Its garden setting offers a different experience of dining in an urban hotel.

Marjan Restaurant; Starting the Day with Views of the Garden and the Blue Persian Gulf

Marjan Restaurant, the hotel’s dedicated breakfast restaurant, is located on the mezzanine level. Its terrace overlooks the hotel’s palm-filled garden and the Persian Gulf. Breakfast here combines food and hospitality with views of green gardens and blue water.

Sun Café & Lobby Lounge; At the Heart of Homa Hotel Bandar Abbas

Sun Café & Lobby Lounge, located in the hotel lobby, provides a comfortable setting for relaxation, friendly and business meetings, drinks, and refreshments.

Outdoor Pool, Massage and Spa, Children’s Park and Tennis Court

The hotel offers an outdoor pool amid the garden, massage and spa services, a children’s park, and a tennis court. The pool creates a peaceful setting surrounded by greenery and the warm southern atmosphere, while the spa, children’s park, and tennis court provide opportunities for relaxation and recreation.

Sadaf 1 and 2 conference halls, Marjan Hall, and other reception spaces also make the hotel suitable for meetings, ceremonies, and official events.

At Homa Bandar Abbas, the sea is not merely a view behind the window; it is part of the experience.

 

Homa Hotel Ahmadabad Mashhad; More Than Five Decades of Hospitality, Memory and Experience

 

Mashhad attracts millions of visitors for pilgrimage, business, family visits, and tourism. Homa Hotel Ahmadabad, the city’s longest-established five-star hotel, has shaped part of Mashhad’s travel and hospitality memory for more than five decades.

Previously known as Hyatt Omar Khayyam, the hotel opened in 1973 and was renovated in 2017, preserving its identity while adding modern facilities.

Its distinctive character comes from the combination of history, gardens, accommodation variety, and its location in the heart of Mashhad.

Rooms, Suites and Villas; An Option for Every Kind of Journey

Homa Hotel has 135 accommodation units in its main building, apartments, and villas. Single rooms, standard double rooms of approximately 30 square meters, suites, and villas meet different needs.

Families can select among rooms, suites, and equipped villas according to the size and nature of their journey. Independent villas within the hotel garden are one of the features distinguishing Homa Ahmadabad from many urban hotels.

Tranquility in the Heart of the City

The combination of an urban location with gardens and green spaces allows guests to experience tranquility away from the city’s bustle, particularly appealing to families and guests who value open space.

Recreational Facilities; Beyond Accommodation

A tennis court, sauna, Jacuzzi, and massage services complement the accommodation facilities, giving guests opportunities for relaxation, recreation, and sport.

Gol-e Sorkh Restaurant; The Taste of Hospitality at Homa Hotel Ahmadabad

Gol-e Sorkh Restaurant is one of the hotel’s principal dining spaces, serving Iranian and international cuisine. Together with the café and summer dining area, it provides spaces for meals, conversation, and relaxation.

At Homa Ahmadabad, hospitality continues beyond accommodation through its dining spaces, garden, and overall guest experience.

Reception Spaces; From the Heritage of Ayeneh Hall to the Modern Architecture of Homa Class Hall

Homa Ahmadabad offers diverse spaces for dining and events. Ayeneh Hall is one of its oldest and best-known spaces, having hosted numerous ceremonies, meetings, and memorable events over the years. It forms part of the hotel’s hospitality history.

Homa Class Hall, by contrast, offers modern design and facilities for contemporary ceremonies, meetings, and events. The coexistence of classic and modern spaces allows guests to choose according to the occasion.

The hotel café has summer and winter spaces for year-round use, while its summer restaurant provides an open-air setting within the garden.

These spaces are not merely venues for food or ceremonies; they are part of the experience of a hotel that connects its historical character with contemporary needs.

A Hotel for Major Events

Homa Ahmadabad has hosted conferences, business and professional meetings, official sessions, family ceremonies, celebrations, corporate programs, and other events.

Its reception halls, Ayeneh Hall, conference spaces, and event facilities allow the hotel to serve both travelers and the wider event life of Mashhad.

Homa Hotel Ahmadabad; A Place Between Past and Present

Perhaps its identity lies in this combination: more than five decades of history rooted in modern Mashhad, while responding to today’s guests.

From its years under the Hyatt name to the present, from its main building to villas and gardens, from Gol-e Sorkh Restaurant to its event halls, Homa Ahmadabad brings together memory and contemporary hospitality.

It is not merely a place to stay in Mashhad; it is part of the city’s story of hospitality.

 

Homa Hotel Khayyam Mashhad; Tranquility in the Garden and the City

 

If Homa Ahmadabad represents a historic urban hotel, Homa Hotel Khayyam offers another experience, centered on green spaces, recreation, and family accommodation.

Known as the five-star Homa 2 International Hotel Mashhad, it opened in 1996 and was renovated in 2016. The five-story property has 196 rooms and a capacity of 450 beds, including Special, Standard, Luxury, Royal, and one-bedroom suites.

Suites Designed for Family Stays

One of Homa Khayyam’s main features is its suite-based accommodation. Double, Luxury, four-person Royal, and Homa Class suites offer varied choices for families and longer stays.

For families traveling to Mashhad, additional space, tranquility, amenities, and access to services can turn an ordinary stay into a more comfortable journey.

Summer Restaurant; A Different Dining Experience

The summer restaurant is among Homa Khayyam’s appealing features. Green spaces, a fountain, and an open-air setting create an alternative to conventional hotel dining. The café, reception halls, and recreational facilities add further options for guests.

Swimming Pool, Sauna, Tennis Court and Fitness Facilities

Homa Khayyam offers a swimming pool, sauna, tennis court, children’s facilities, 24-hour medical services, laundry, and complimentary transportation to the Holy Shrine.

These facilities are designed to make the travel experience more complete. After a day of pilgrimage or sightseeing, guests can return to a setting for rest, recreation, and family time.

 

Homa; Five Hotels, Five Atmospheres, One Professional Standard

 

The five hotels of the Homa Group, across different geographies, share a common concept: reinterpreting the tradition of Iranian hospitality through modern hotel management.

In Tehran, Homa engages with a fast-paced capital and global city.

In Shiraz, with poetry, gardens, and Iran’s cultural memory.

In Bandar Abbas, with the sea, commerce, and southern culture.

In Mashhad, with pilgrimage, family, and extensive domestic travel.

Across all these cities, Homa’s staff work to create an experience that guests can take home and savor in memory until their next journey.

Perhaps the enduring name of Homa lies in this ability to create nostalgia: more than five decades in Iran’s hospitality industry, grounded in experience and an effort to connect contemporary standards with the longstanding culture of Iranian hospitality.
