Parsian Esteghlal International Hotel, International hotel and skyscraper in District 3, Tehran, Iran
The Parsian Esteghlal International Hotel consists of two towers reaching 57.3 meters in height, with 504 rooms and 48 suites across 16 floors.
Initially named Royal Tehran Hilton, the first tower opened in 1962, followed by a second tower in 1972, designed by Iranian architect Heydar Ghiai.
The hotel represents Pahlavi architecture through its white concrete structure mixed with crushed marble, maintaining its original appearance through decades.
The property spans 70,000 square meters and contains six restaurants, conference halls, sports facilities, a swimming pool, and modern amenities in all rooms.
After the 1979 Islamic Revolution, the hotel changed its name to Esteghlal, meaning Independence in Persian, marking a shift from international to national management.
