Erzurumlu Otel

“Most hospitable and accommodating staff ever”

I stayed at the hotel only for a few days, exploring Kilyos as a possible layover location for transit flights via Istanbul. Kilyos, in general, is the resort targeting primarily Turkish families and residents of Istanbul rather than foreigners-hence, staff outside of the hotel does not speak English, however that was not the case regarding hotel staff. I cannot thank enough the hotel staff at the reception, who made my stay really enjoyable, and accommodated all my requests. I have been upgraded to a room with the sea view. I would recommend exploring Suma Beach (with paid entry) which is within the reach by taxi.

“Relaxed and peaceful stay”

Me and a friend spent two weeks here in Kilyos without spending much time researching the area. So there were a few surprises! But overall, we had very relaxed time and enjoyed the swims, food, and weather. Our rooms had terrific views of the Black Sea and sunsets. They were big and comfortable… more

Me and a friend spent two weeks here in Kilyos without spending much time researching the area. So there were a few surprises! But overall, we had very relaxed time and enjoyed the swims, food, and weather. Our rooms had terrific views of the Black Sea and sunsets. They were big and comfortable enough although bathrooms were tiny. We regularly asked for supplies, cleaning, and the iron. The internet connection was terrible and seemed to work best in the lobby. The hotel is aged but kept and maintained to a reasonable level. The pool is great. The restaurant is great and the meals excellent. The management and staff were always helpful, you just need to ask.

“Not too bad”

Kilyos is a small village on the Black Sea, 20 minutes from Istanbul airport. As it is a little seaside fishing village, you can’t expect the luxury and cleanliness of resort cities like Antalya or Bodrum. The hotels in Kilyos are smaller and a bit run down, but it’s to be expected. It’s a village.… more

Kilyos is a small village on the Black Sea, 20 minutes from Istanbul airport. As it is a little seaside fishing village, you can’t expect the luxury and cleanliness of resort cities like Antalya or Bodrum. The hotels in Kilyos are smaller and a bit run down, but it’s to be expected. It’s a village. The Erzurumlu is such a hotel. Though a little warn and not fresh looking, it serves its purpose well. The staff are helpful. The rooms are average size and as clean as you can get an older hotel to be. Our room had a beautiful sea view. They do skimp on the amenities, but many older hotels do. The breakfast was good. There are lots of great places to eat in the immediate area, especially seafood. Also within walking distance are supermarkets, bakeries, pharmacy and souvenir shop. If you like to go off the beaten path for a hotel near the airport, even if your looking for a overnight connection stay, Erzurumlu is a quiet and affordable place.
