Homestays in Selimiye

Daniel United States of America

We loved our stay at the Gala Hotel. The family is exceptionally friendly. The hotel is lovely and has an amazing view of Selimiye Bay (shower window is probably the best shower view we have ever had :}. Breakfast is fantastic. Hotel is quiet and away from the main promenade but it is only a 15', nice walk. We are grateful for the hospitality of the staff and hope to return soon.

This charming hotel is one of the most relaxing and delightful places I have ever stayed. The town is geared up for Turkish tourists, not for Northern Europeans. So menus are not always available in English and hotel and restaurant staff do not all speak English. Food in most places is local Turkish, although you can find burgers and Pizzas if you really want to. And the local food is delicious! Lovely seafood and fabulous meze. The house is right on the seafront. Super helpful staff. But this is not a flash, soul-less five star. It is a quirky, individual place to stay, as if you are in someone's home. The place is spotlessly clean but some of the fittings, such as taps, are not super modern. Breakfast was superb. Eggs cooked to order alongside freshly baked Turkish bread and a different pastry every day. Plus a simple but delicious salad with cheese, olives, honey and conserves. I am going to miss this so much! Hotel restaurant was excellent - we ate there every other night so that we could compare with other places in walking distance. The setting was a delight, sitting right next to the sea as you dine! Tea and fantastic cakes arriving at your sunbed at 4pm was a very welcome bonus! After the first day or two we cut down the amount we ate at lunch to make room for tea. Room was very comfortable with lots of hot water when you needed it in the bathroom. Comfortable bed, lots of pillows and extra bedding in the cupboard. Bug screens on all the doors and windows kept out insects. The aircon was very efficient but we only used it on one night. Stunning view from our room out across the harbour, was wonderful to wake up to. Before going, I had wondered about how I would feel with people wondering about on the towpath behind the sunbeds. I need not have worried! You are far enough away not to be bothered. And at sunset the staff remove the sunbeds and put the tables out on the pontoon for dinner.
