Hotels With Airport pickup service in Kars Province, Türkiye

Location is ok, the hotel is located in the city centre, walking distance ~15-20 minutes to Kars Castle. A few small supermarkets and local market nearby. The hotel was kind of empty when we were there. We booked a triple economy room. To be honest Room design seem old fashion and needs a makeover. Room is generally clean and bed was comfortable. There is a kettle in the room but bottled water is not provided. There's a bidet spray for my fellow bidet users. Breakfast was limited but it was understandable as there were only a handful of guest around. The same male staff was taking care of the reception counter the entire 2 nights/3 days we were there. He spoke English fairly and was very helpful. He was able to arrange a taxi to and from Ani and the train station for us. There were no tours by the hotel at that time.

Several other hotels in Kars were booked out. While the Sirin was nowhere near my first choice it turned out to be adequate for a 1 night stay. The hotel has an interesting design from the outside, perhaps best described as Ottoman style. The receptionist had very little English but went out of his way to be helpful even calling soon after I had gone to the room to offer complimentary Turkish coffee. The hotel is a bit scruffy with very stained carpets, a bit of mould in the shower and a broken glass light shade. That aside the room was very clean and large with a double bed and a separate single bed plus a table and a couple of chairs. There was also a small fridge but it didn’t feel cold inside. Perhaps it was unplugged somewhere or not cold because the power was off when the room was not in use. The room itself was very warm in spite of the sub-zero outside temperature and the street was quiet. The hotel is situated on the edge of the main downtown area in easy walking distance of a good supermarket, restaurants and other shops. On the downside, the wifi was appalling when it actually worked which it didn’t much of the time anyway. Don’t count on it. The in-house restaurant serves only breakfast so don’t count on that either for other meals. Finally, the hotel was supposed to have ordered a taxi to get me to the train station early in the morning and even told me how much it would cost but there was no taxi to be seen at the departure time. I expect this was the taxi’s fault not the hotel’s but it was stressful none the less. Fortunately, there is a taxi stand half a block away with a driver sleeping inside a little cabin next to a couple of taxis so I didn’t miss my train. Overall, the Sirin is fine for 1-2 nights with good proximity to most things and most of the desired comforts with the exception of stable wifi.

A Haramulade hotel. It contains traces of history in every corner. Everyone from the bellboy to the waiter floor attendant to the security guard are doing their best to make you comfortable from the first time they see you. Receptionist AKİF BEY, I would like to thank you specifically for your interest in the information you have given about the environment. Hope to see you again in four months.
