The Khorshid Hotel in Mashhad is a well-established two-star property with a history dating back to 1975. It’s located on Daneshgah Street, close to popular shopping centers like Alton Tower and Ziist Khavar Mall, offering guests the convenience of nearby urban amenities. Renovated in 2021, the hotel now meets modern standards while retaining its cozy, traditional appeal, catering particularly to budget-conscious travelers who appreciate good value in proximity to the Imam Reza Shrine, around a 30-minute drive or a longer walk from the hotel.

The Khorshid Hotel features six floors with 30 rooms, offering various accommodation types, including double, triple, and quad rooms. Each room is equipped with basic amenities like Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, air conditioning, and en-suite bathrooms. Despite its rating, guests frequently note that the cleanliness and room quality exceed expectations for a two-star hotel. 

Amenities include a restaurant with breakfast and a coffee shop for light snacks. Other services like 24-hour taxi service, airport transfer, laundry, and multilingual staff add to the convenience of international and local guests. The hotel also offers a modest gym and sauna, enhancing the value it provides for travelers seeking affordable comfort.

Reviewers commonly mention the warm service, attention to cleanliness, and the reasonable rates as highlights of their stay, although some note that the location can be a bit distant for those planning frequent visits to the shrine. The overall impression is of a reliable, comfortable hotel that provides a pleasant experience at budget-friendly prices .
