The food was good and close to the shrine.
We booked this hotel as a full board, but the quality and variety of food were really low. Lunch offered only two models with low quality, dinner offered two high-quality dishes, the salad bar and drinks were of low quality. The cleanliness of the rooms was excellent, but it wasn't perfect. There were no towels in the bathrooms, but there was a hairdryer. Overall, I recommend staying without food if the price is suitable.
The hotel was good, but the facilities were a bit low compared to the price.
I stayed at Karen Hotel before, but the quality of the food was very bad. It seemed like the dishes were being used again and again. The food was bad.
Dear, I selected this hotel based on feedback from various online users, which was very helpful for me. I stayed in this hotel for 5 days and would like to share my experience. The hotel is clean and tidy, and has a good restaurant. The only drawback is the weak interaction of some reception staff and lack of cleanliness of the rooms until the last day of departure. Overall, it is good value for money and close to the shrine. It takes about 7 minutes by walking from the Reza market to the shrine.
The environment is quiet, the distance to the shrine is suitable, the food and breakfast are good.
Overall, I am very disappointed with choosing this hotel and will never choose it again.
Excellent
I chose this hotel based on my previous experience but if I go to the Imam Reza shrine again I will not use this hotel.
