"We arrived at 11pm and the staff came running, helping with the luggage and smooth check-in. Our room was spacious, nicely decorated, clean, great shower . Breakfast was tasty and plenty of different dishes served to the table. Location is great, near the market, the museums and many eateries. From the terrace we overlooked the Balikligöl Park with the castle behind. Friendly staff. We liked this hotel and would stay here again."

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. From the moment we arrived, the owners were incredibly welcoming and helpful. Hatice Hanım’s homemade breakfast was absolutely delicious, and everything was freshly made. This is a lovely family run hotel, and everyone, including their children, was kind and always ready to help. The rooms were clean, and the hotel truly reflects the spirit of Şanlıurfa.It is also within easy walking distance of Balıklıgöl and the historic bazaar. A special thanks to Mehmet Bey, who kindly drove us to the bus station late in the evening without expecting anything in return.We truly appreciated his kindness. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Şanlıurfa."

Nomad Inn

Nomad Inn

8/10 Good
"Firstly, it's a good looking place in its original style, however, my room (basic single), I don't think was worth the price. It was clean, but the amenities inside needed attention, and it had a damp smell. The Aircon also stopped working (batteries I think), but the guy was gone, so couldn't ask for new ones. Instead, with only a sheet on the bed, I had a cool night. Breakfast was very good though, and quite varied, but the lack of interaction/interest from the staff made it more of a sterile place to stay, than a nice welcoming one. Beware, it's tucked away in the old part of town, so if you have a vehicle, it's not easy to get to, even on a motorbike"
