The thing that stood out the most is how friendly the staff is.. but besides that everything else was also super. The restarants and shopping centers are just a 2 minutes walk.

Great stay
Hey,
We stayed for 5 nights at Kalyon hotel, it was a very pleasent experience. Nice people every time at your service, good breakfast, clean and big room with partial seaview; they cleaned our room every day, put fresh towels, paper, shower gel and shampoo.
Con: a little bit noisy; very bad experience with dinner at their restaurant.

Nice, small hotel being one of the oldest ones in the area but still clean, comfortable and well kept hotel with smiling and helpful personnel starting from the front desk to restaurant.
Only point to improve can be the a/c performance for the rooms facing west during sunny & hot days.

It was one of the best experience of my life. Staff is number one in my list of traveling for past 30 years. I want to return to visit Turkey and the only reaosn is to stay in this hotel and meet the great staff. I will highly recommend. The manager was always there to help me and my family.

Partial view room
I had booked 2 rooms with partial view and it was indeed partial view but I didn’t mind it. There was an ancient rock wall that cannot be torn down which adds a majestic look to the sea. The rooms looked exactly as the pictures so I was happy about that. They were very clean and spacious. The hotel location was perfect and grant easy access to the central market and monumental sights.The staff were ok and professional. They greet you and take care of you the minute you arrive. They did keep our luggage after check out while we go sightseeing and return when we were ready, which was nice of them.The breakfast was not that great it’s not worth paying for; they didn’t have a good variety and is bland. I could have been better off getting breakfast in local restaurants but they had Starbucks which is perfect for coffee lovers like me. Overall I had a great time staying there and would stay there again.

Great location within easy walking distance of main shopping bazaar and other historical sites including the famous mosques. The hotel is located across the seaside with great views of container ships floating past. The only one thing that impacted me was the room fridge which did not work and when I attempted to plug it in it almost caught fire. The fridge was never replaced during the duration of my stay which resulted in some of the food I had bought having to be disposed of.
