Anatolian Houses

The setting was beautiful. The room decor and the entire hotel atmosphere was a comforting blend of Turkish tradition and modern amenities. My husband and I stayed there for 3 nights last months and it was rather difficult to leave the place!

My only grouse seemed to be with the service. The 2 women who seemed to be at the reception most of the time had an air of irritating indifference. When we got to the hotel, the lady at the reception had no clue who we were and had to check her books twice to discover we had a reservation – very strange considering we were the only guests in the... more
