What guests think

At Divan Cukurhan, guests highlight a beautifully restored historic caravanserai in Ankara's old city, with character-filled interiors, spacious rooms, and a well-reviewed restaurant and terrace offering city views steps from the castle and major museums.

Rooms are generally large, comfortable, and stylish with modern bathrooms, and many guests find the staff exceptionally welcoming and helpful. Drawbacks that come up include occasional air conditioning issues, hard-to-access power outlets, no in-room minibar and limited water, and mixed feedback on breakfast quality, service, or extra charges. Set on a hill by the castle, it suits culture-focused stays more than nightlife; expect a distinctive, museum-like experience.

I don’t know what VIP access is but in any event this is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in and I work in tourism. Outstanding. Outstanding rooms. This hotel is a real museum and serious museum pieces are in each room. What a treasure. This hotel has an antique library! And a real museum attached to the hotel. Food in the restaurant with a view overlooking Ataturk’s tomb is outstanding. The staff are outstanding. The men who were managing the front desk were unbelievably helpful, professional and sophisticated. They go beyond the call of duty, certainly. On top of everything else, this hotel is a restored 490 year old caravansaray - the history is mind blowing. The building is in the area of the ancient castle and the entire area is like walking back in time 500 plus years ago. Did I say this place is outstanding? It is.

Genel olarak iyi bir otel. Tasarım, odalar, temizlik ve personel çok iyi. Ama oda içerisinde ciddi bir priz problemi var. Çok sayıda priz olmasına rağmen prizler erişilebilir durumda değil. Ya koltuk, ya yatak ya da masa arkalarında ulaşılması en güç noktalara yerleştirilmiş. Diğer bir olumsuz husus havalandırma ve klima sistemi çok gürültülü çalışıyor. Bir diğer husus odaların hiç birinde mini bar ve dolayısıyla. buzdolabı yok. Restaurant kısmına bebek arabasıyla ulaşmak son derece zor ve meşakkatli. Bunlar dışında geriye kalan herşey gayet iyi ve başarılı…

A jewel of a hotel with top-level attention from manager and staff, both in checking in as well as dining (with very good food at the restaurant). Breakfast was customized from Turkish specialties, but not a buffet. Excellent, lovely room (double deluxe) with large bathroom, complete with two sinks and a bathtub along with a large shower. There was plenty of storage space in both rooms. One can enjoy at any time the museum quality furnishings and collectibles throughout the hotel, which was converted from an historic caravanserei with great care. And there is a fascinating actual museum attached to the hotel. Location is just right, central to the citadel and old town, the Anatolian Museum, as well as the bazaar and main city below.

The property is interesting historically having been a caravanserai. It is next door to an interesting museum. You have free entrance to the museum as a guest of the hotel. The breakfast was huge. The only downside is that the castle neighbourhood has limited evening dinner choices .

Geniş bir sahanliğa sıralanmış odalar, her taraf tarihi eserle donatılmış bir modern han. Çalışanlar çok iyi. Hizmet çok iyi. Odalar pırıl pırıl geniş ve kullanışlı. Her türlü detay düşünülmüş. Lavabo banyo, yatak her şey yerli yerinde. Odada tek eksik buzdolabı yok. Su ihtiyacım oldu sıkıntısını yaşadım. Yatak rahat her şey tertemiz.

This was a problem because the temperatures were close to 40 Celsius during the day. At any other property, we would have been comped in some way. We were not. Disappointing and a let down for a world class property.

Beautiful rooms with unique decor, a kitchen with an outstanding chef. What makes this hotel shine, though, is the kindness of its staff. I had a fever and needed to seek treatment at a hospital (a daunting prospect for a non-Turkish speaker traveling alone). The front-desk supervisor took me there and stayed with me through the whole process. As I was recovering, the housekeeping and room service staff brightened my days with their smiles and nurtured my baby Turkish conversations. May all their days be long and prosperous.

Yeri mükemmel. Müzeler çok yakın. Giriş yaparken kapıdaki güvenlikteki görevliler ve Resepsiyondaki Gökhan Bey çok yardımcı oldular, teşekkürler. Odamız güzeldi 40 metrekare olanlardan. ısıtıcı çalışmıyordu. Tamir için geldiler yapamadılar, sabaha kadar donduk. Restauranttan ve pastaneden memnun kalmadım. Kahvaltım bitmek üzereyken yeni kahvaltıya gelen bir müşteriye uzun uzun neleri kapsadığı anlatılınca bozuldum. Aynı şekilde pastanede sorum geçiştirildi, başka bir müşteriye uzun uzun anlatıldığını gördüm. Çok kalabalık bir otel hangi müşteri arıza çıkarabilir anlamışlar ona göre hizmet ediyorlar. Müzelerin saatleri belli, bir gün sipariş verdik, yarım saat oldu etraftaki masaların yemekleri geldi bize servis bile açılmadı. Kalkıp başka yer aradık ve zaman kaybettik, o gün öğleden sonramız çok kötü geçti planladığımız hiçbir şeyi yapamadık. Bunları bilerek gelin.

This is a beautiful hotel located in a renovated caravanserai, in the oldest part of Ankara, next to the Citadel, and very near the Museum of Anatolian Civilization. The building is very well maintained, and really gives a sense of the past. My room was lovely. It looked out on the street, which can be a little busy during the day and has occasional barking dogs at night. (I asked for another more secluded room looking away from the street but was told these were only suites). But the street is quiet past 8pm and the dogs are not loud :) I am a light sleeper but the street did not bother me at night. I don't believe I received a special VIP treatment (Expedia's claim) but I was treated very well and I really recommend this hotel.
