Have been staying at the Gulf Hotel for both work and leisure for over 10 years and have always had a comfortable and pleasurable experience. The hotel’s facilities are what you should expect of a 5 star establishment and all the staff are fantastic, really helpful and welcoming. The on-site restaurants are excellent with a special mention going to the Takht Jamsheed Iranian restaurant and Café Délices. If you don’t want to eat in the hotel there’s plenty of dining establishments within walking distance of the hotel. Looking forward to our next visit.

A real home away of home
It’s one of the best hotels that my family of (my wife and two daughters) ever experienced. The check in was so quick and when my family didn’t like the size of the unit, they immediately upgraded it without any extra cost. The house was so responsive when asked of any request. I cannot complain of any thing. Thanks to every member of the staff.
