Kadıoğlu Şehzade Konakları

Safranbolu


Although a bigger hotel than many of Safranbolu's other offerings, the friendly, on-the-ball staff here create a homely atmosphere. Common areas are crammed full of local character with Turkish carpets, old photos and cabinets full of curios. Rooms are a bit plainer but good-sized (for Safranbolu); some have beamed-wall details and dark-wood-panel features.
