Gulevi Safranbolu

The hotel, set in three buildings, has been restored and decorated with many original features. It is a marvelous example of old Ottoman architecture. It is located only a few minutes' walk from the Safranbolu village center. The hotel manager upgraded us to a large suite with a side sitting room. The room decor reflected a time long ago. The bed was very comfortable and lighting was good. The breakfast was a traditional multi-course event to be enjoyed. The weather was good for all but our last day, so breakfast was served in the garden among the buildings. The garden setting, at the time of our visit, included several blooming rose bushes. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and professional. We all cheerfully overcame our language differences.

The hotel is close to the City Museum, where you can climb high and enjoy the night view or sunrise of the safranbulo city at any time. It is very convenient to go to various tourist attractions, especially when you turn left when you go out, there is a delicious restaurant called Kadioglu SehzaDe Sofrasi very close. This hotel has a beautiful courtyard where you can comfortably drink tea, chat, and play cards. The hotel rooms are very simple and historical, but they are clean and the bed is comfortable to sleep in. Especially the room keys have local characteristics. The most attractive thing about this hotel is the enthusiasm of the boss and Sophia. They are responsive to requests and feel at home, fully aware of the hospitality of Turks. Breakfast is also very delicious, with various cheeses, vegetables, fruits, and fried eggs. Especially the fried eggs are very delicious.Sophia is very nice. On the first day, we added another portion of what we liked, and the next day, she kindly prepared a double portion for us. Wishing her and her beautiful daughter and granddaughter more and more happiness!

I loved this small hotel that truly felt “boutique”, particularly the gardens and the absolutely delicious breakfast - I think the best I had in two weeks in Turkey.

Beatiful location, good building restoration, abundant breakfast. Great staff.

Great old mansion with central location and very helpful staff. The room was great, had everything and comfortable. On-street parking was available around the hotel. The location is in walking distance to old town and all Safranbolu attractions.
