Sleeping inside or in nearby hotels (IKA)

Overnight layover guide. Sleeping facilities in the public zone or boarding area

Please note that some published services and schedules may be subject to change. If the idea is to spend the night in the public area, consider a plan B in case the stay inside the airport is only allowed for those who are about to board. Spending the night at the airport

Tehran Airport experiences almost constant passenger movement and is open 24 hours a day. Spending the night here can be an option if you have a long layover or an early flight and want to rest without leaving the premises. While it is generally safe, you should always look after your personal belongings and stay alert to your surroundings.

Where to rest: Reclining chairs can be found near the boarding gates, baggage claim areas, and duty-free shops. However, it is advisable to bring a sleeping bag in case you need to sleep on the floor. Another option is to use one of the VIP lounges, which are open around the clock, but you must pay a fee to access them. Beyond that, there are two hotels in front of the terminal and a capsule hotel inside the building for better rest.

Baggage: Luggage storage is available 24 hours a day to the west of the main terminal entrance.

Eating and drinking: Make sure to bring food and drinks with you, as options are limited during the night.

Wi-Fi: Free access for 2 hours.

Other services available 24 hours a day: Commercial outlets, ATMs, prayer rooms.
