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 to provide lodging for travelers.

Upon the suggestion of French André Godard (1881–1965), an archaeologist, architect, and historian of French and Middle Eastern Art.,[1] the Cultural Heritage Organization of Isfahan and insurance company by Civil Engineer A.Mohit decided to proceed with the renovation of the caravansary.

The 1974 film And Then There Were None, starring Oliver Reed and Elke Sommer, was shot here.
