GuleviSafranbolu Hotel

Just marvellous.

Helpful staff, historical building

Really good hotel, and great staff / owner . Loved it.

2 centuries old authentic hotel with very friendly staff (they make great jams), surprisingly affordable

Elegant and relaxing hotel with a charming garden and very friendly and accommodating staff.

Owner's Contribution: Gülevi Safranbolu emerged as a project of living through revitalization rather than one of accommodation. The project was initiated to survive the richness and subtlety of life which flourished during the 18th century in Safranbolu which is currently inscribed in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Gül and İbrahim Canbulat acquired three neighboring Ottoman mansions in the early 2000s and started running these buildings following restoration. All three mansions date back to the 18th century. Damage and wear due to time and human intervention were recovered by the restoration process; the mansions were granted their genuine architectonics. Modern facilities required for the present-day functions of these mansions were installed without distorting the authentic integrity of the Ottoman mansion. Gülevi Safranbolu offers 18th century elegant life style with no compromise on contemporary appliances.

We had a wonderful experience while staying at Gülevi hotel. Really enjoyed the spacious rooms, lovely garden and delicious breakfast

Spectacular old ottoman home restored. Nice people operating it. Delicious Turkish breakfast. Chilly in October but plenty of blankets to keep warm.
