Gullu Konaklari

Şirince (Sirence) is actually not that worth exploring, as it's quite commercialized. Since we stayed during the off-season, there were very few guests in the hotel, and they kindly upgraded our room. The hotel’s decor and views are excellent, at least offering a sense of peace and tranquility. However, the bathroom is a bit dated, and water leaks into the room after showering. The drinks in the minibar are not free, and they don't even provide complimentary bottled water—which feels a bit stingy for a hotel in this price range. Breakfast is not a buffet but a pre-prepared set; although the cheese was delicious, the variety and portions were quite limited. Overall, it fell short of my expectations, and I probably wouldn't choose this hotel again if I were to return.

We stayed here for 3 nights as part of our Sirince leg of a tour of Turkey. Whilst the hotel is relatively basic, it is full of local charm in a beautiful setting. The best bit of the Gullu is the personalised breakfast you are provided with each morning - a large mix of local mezze that was a unique experience & truly delicious, something I will always remember from this trip. We also had dinner here one night, which was also very nice. The service we experienced from all the staff there was also really friendly. Would recommend to anyone staying in Sirince.

Overall the hotel is okay. We ended up not staying for the night, but room and dinner are alright though we had to wait quite long time to get the food served. The garden and view are great too. But there is one very big issue i had with the reception lady. She is very nasty and rude. During our check in process she welcomed us at the waiting room upstairs, then she came down to the reception office to finish the process. While waiting, my wife was taking some videos and photos near the entrance where i could see her inside the reception office. While i thought i was doing her a favor by coming into the reception office to get things done, she literally asked me what i was doing in there and told me to wait upstairs in a very rude way. 15-20 minutes later, we came down from our room, she received guests in the reception room too. I honestly was quite taken aback by her attitude and just ruin our mood. Luckily we didn't stay, otherwise it's just a very very bad experience. Never had i got that kind of treatment anywhere around the world.

The facilities are beautiful. The building is a 19th century mansion build in an olive grove with amazing views of the village. The gardens are very nice and the rooms are spacious with vintage vibes. The breakfast is super delicious and traditional. The staff is very kind and helpful. I will definitely be back 🙏

Our 4th visit to Sirince which we love, but first time we have stayed.|Picked a winner!|100m from the hustle and bustle of the village, yet serene.|Excellent room, service and value.|Above excellent charm, ambience, terrace views, breakfast and what we would call our own private “sitooterie”.|Only minor gripe was wine prices, which we avoided.|Would thoroughly reccomend.

This was the most charging hotel I have ever stayed. It felt like a hotel from a fairy tale. We loved our stay in this charming little town over looking the mountains and walking distance to the cutest shops with the nicest people we have met in Turkey. The hotel staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. We left our hearts in this beautiful hotel and town.

Place is so lovely, can’t recommend enough. The staff is kind and the place is well organized. The gardens are beautiful and the cats always want a scratch. ||My one regret is not asking if some of their jewelry on display was for sale. Really great pieces.

The hotel is a tranquil oasis on the edge of the village with a lot of character and charm. The views are beautiful, there are several lovely gardens and patios and there are lots of nice spots to chill out both indoor and outdoor. The village itself is busy with tour groups during the day and is a bit of a circus but is quiet in the early morning and evening. ||The room fixtures have seen better days and some things could do with being replaced eg lamp shades and blinds which are old and stained and peeling paint that could do with refreshing. We had a few issues - the WiFi connection was intermittent and slow most of the time and the electricity in our room went off at one point. Service was a bit haphazard in general with a few communication difficulties. We also had a maintenance issue which took two days to fix. Housekeeping was not up to scratch. In our bathroom there was black dust on a ledge and marks on the tiles where it hadn’t been cleaned properly. Teabags, biscuits and nuts were not replenished after the first day. No coffee was provided. Water was provided in glass bottles but no glasses to drink out of. We have found the lack of glasses common in the hotels we stayed at in Turkey but it seems strange to us. ||The temperatures were a bit chilly during our stay in late April and it rained a lot but the room was not very warm as there was no heating on. The fireplaces in the public areas were also not in use which was a pity. Our bathtub was a lifesaver to warm up. ||Breakfast was served at our table rather than a buffet. There was a nice selection of the usual items and it was good quality and homemade. The only negative was the eggs which were extremely oily. Unusually orange juice was not included and you had to pay extra. We stayed for three days and there was no variation in the breakfast spread whatsoever. They served identical items each day so by the last day we didn’t really want to eat anything. ||Dinner in the restaurant was not that great. We enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere but the food was a bit disappointing. The cheapest wine was quite steep at €57. We only ate there once as we were tired on arrival but as it was disappointing we ate dinner in the village on the other nights. ||Overall, it was a mixed bag. Lovely surroundings and views. Nice atmosphere. But service and facilities leave room for improvement.
