The Abbasi Hotel (Persian: هتل عباسی, formerly known as the "Shah Abbas Hotel", Persian: هتل شاه عباس) is a hotel located in Isfahan, Iran.
The whole complex was built at the time of king Sultan Husayn of Safavid about 400 years ago. Formerly known as the Mothers Inn caravanserai, it was built as a caravansary to provide lodging for travelers.
The structure has been renovated 1959 by Architect A. Mohit and French André Godard (1881–1965), an archaeologist, architect, and historian of French and Middle Eastern Art.[1]
The 1974 film And Then There Were None, starring Oliver Reed and Elke Sommer, was shot here.
