A beautiful Ottoman-style inn with a gourmet restaurant on a quiet street only two minutes' stroll from Kalekapısı, the very center of historic Antalya, near the top sights, tram lines, bazaar, boutiques and harbor... Is that possible?

It is! It's the Tuvana Hotel, in a prime location close to all the sights in Kaleiçi (Old Antalya), but also just steps from Kalekapısı, the very center of Antalya sightseeing, transportation and shopping.

It's even on its own quiet side street with no vehicle traffic, very little pedestrian traffic, but plenty of flowers. This makes it especially suitable for families and travelers with mobility challenges.

If you book your room directly with the hotel and mention TurkeyTravelPlanner.com, you may receive valuable bonuses that will increase your comfort and save you money. More...

The six restored Ottoman houses of the inn have 46 comfortable, atmospheric rooms ranging in comfort and price from Standard and Standard Plus to Superior and Deluxe, including eight suites, two family suites and two "Pasha" rooms that are larger, with many windows, and open onto the garden, terrace restaurant, and pretty swimming pool surrounded by palm and fruit trees and luxuriant bougainvillea. Unlike many hotel swimming pools in Kaleiçi, the Tuvana's receives full sun all day.

In season, feel free to pick fresh oranges, tangerines, bananas, plums, medlars, and pomegranates right from the trees!

Each of the houses has a different character and ambiance, with its own antique decor, sitting rooms and atmosphere. All guest rooms have flat-screen satellite TV with Turkish, European and American channels, DVD players, direct-dial phones, minibars, and modern private bathrooms with hair dryers.

Enjoy a book or DVD movie (with romantic movies for newlyweds!) from the small lending library or log on to the free Wifi wireless Internet access available everywhere in the hotel.

The hotel's restaurants, Kaftani (Turkish) and Seraser, (international/Turkish gourmet) are two of the finest restaurants in Antalya, with quality and service worthy of Istanbul. More...

Besides its two dining rooms (with a fireplace for winter evenings), Kaftani serves diners in its beautiful garden beneath the fruit trees when the weather is fine.

Ratesat the Tuvana include a full Turkish buffet breakfast and, if you wish, may include a generous table d'hote dinner. And dinner may be a special event such as the weekly Turkish barbecue: a seemingly endless succession of appetizers, salads, and grilled meats brought right to your table, sizzling from the grill, until you can eat no more. But then, dessert arrives! Oh, and coffee. Oh, and then a liqueur.... (Delicious alternatives to meat are available for vegetarians.)

Rest easy: your comfy bed is nearby....

Clientele is usually a congenial mix of Britons, Europeans, Australians and North Americans. Special rates are available for diplomats, academics, journalists and artists with credentials who reserve directly with the hotel.

There are also seasonal discounts. Ask!

Mr Aziz Tankut, the hotel's owner, and Ms Nermin Sümer, the General Manager, are usually much in evidence around the hotel, assisting guests, sharing a story, a joke, a cup of coffee, or information and advice on how best to enjoy Antalya and places nearby.

The hotel staff will be happy to arrange a private transfer from Antalya International Airport directly to the Tuvana Hotel. More...

The Tuvana Hotel has its own car parking lot behind the hotel (a rare thing in congested Kaleiçi). Finding it can be tricky, but no worries: ask in advance for the special map to the hotel. When you arrive, the hotel will send a staff member to assist, or even pilot your car if necessary. Contact the hotel for details.

Aziz Bey and Nermin Hanım tell me that travelers coming from TurkeyTravelPlanner.com are the best guests, so they offer incentives for you to stay with them.

TTP travelers benefit most from bonuses on Superior and Deluxe rooms, but Standard and Standard Plus rooms are yours as well, all subject to availability (reserve early!).

Remember: these special offers are NOT offered unless you book directly with the hotel and mention TTP at the time of booking. Click here!
