Raymar Hotel

Ankara


The Raymar's rooms are all floral wallpaper, old-fashioned street lamps as lighting over the big beds, and furniture with a vintage distressed-paint look. It could be a wee bit twee for some but the excellent amenities, friendly staff and suave, contemporary bathrooms (with generously proportioned showers) make up for it.
