SIRÇALI HOTEL"Centrally located and very close to the market and the museum/Rumi’s tomb. Secure parking. The traffic maze of streets was a challenge, but if I can do it, from a small rural Canadian town, anyone can do it. The breakfast was good, though not as over the top elaborate as some we have had this trip it far outshines the normal North American hotel breakfast"
Bablin Butik Otel
Bablin Butik Otel"Not very good value - small room, decor straight out of the 70's, dim unwelcoming lobby. On the plus side a nice view of the mosque and sufi museum from the breakfast terrace"
