This blue mid-rise is run by the same friendly family that owns Melrose House, so service is top-notch. Spacious rooms come with turquoise and bronze decor, kettles, satellite TV and good-sized bathrooms. Some have balconies with views over to the travertines. The internal courtyard has an attractive pool area and the restaurant (mains ₺25 to ₺47) serves home-cooked flavours.
