Dariush Grand Hotel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Dariush Grand Hotel is a 168-room, $125 million, luxury five star hotel located on the eastern part of Kish Island Iran, in the Persian Gulf.
Establishment
Dariush Grand Hotel was built as a look alike of Persepolis, a symbol of the glory and splendor of the ancient Persian (Iranian) civilization and the Persian Empire. The hotel was designed and developed by the Iranian (Persian) entrepreneur and hotel tycoon, Hossein Sabet, who owns and manages several tourist attractions and hotels in the Canary Islands. The hotel was completed in 2003 and is owned by a number of companies.
Management
On May 7, 2004 it was announced that the Rezidor Hotel Group would manage the Dariush Grand Hotel in a 10-year contract.[1] In 2006, Rezidor and the owner of the hotel agreed to cancel the contract. Since 2006, the company management of the hotel is unknown. But it is highly thought that the Sabet Hotels Group runs the management of the hotel.

Hi Saman
I like this and I remember the place. I stayed at Dariush in 2004 and I must say that is the most beautiful hotel I ever seen. The hole island of Kish is very speciel and very very nice. Loved that place. Want to go again. TFS
