Kervansaray Canakkale Hotel - Special Category

My friend and I had a good stay here. It has a great location in the center of town, right near the water. There are plenty of restaurants, cafes and bars and it was hopping as we were there on the weekend. There was some street noise, but the windows were closed as it was cold and it wasn't enough noise to disturb us. If you like to sleep with the windows open, it might be an issue. It is a lovely old building with a courtyard that would be fabulous in nice weather. We had cold and rain, so we didn't sit out, but it would be a nice quiet hang out space in the nicer weather. The breakfast was good and included. One tip - I found the hotel through one of the online booking sites that have hundreds of hotels. I then went to the hotel's own site to make the booking as I believe the hotel gets to keep the money without paying a large percentage to the collective site. The price on the first site was 90 Euro for two nights. The price I was quoted when I contacted them directly (price not listed on their site) was 60 Euro but didn't specify if this was for one or two nights. When we arrived, it was 60 per night, making it more expensive than if I had made the booking elsewhere. Do consider this as a place to stay, but shop around among the sites that list it to find the best deal.

Hotel is a pleasant island of calm in a busy port-side neighborhood of narrow streets. Decor is tasteful and retro. Room was a bit small, but adequate. Main need in this hot, humid summer was strong AC, but it was adequate for comfort. Breakfast buffet not included in room price. Garden restaurant owned by another business, but it's a nice option evenings. All prices very reasonable. Main critique is limited property is getting a bit cluttered (behind bar, etc.), but management could gain useful space by clearing out unused items. A nice stay in a unique building!
