We turned up in Alaçatı late one evening looking for a pet-friendly hotel. We have had some good experiences, and some nasty suprises travelling around Turkey with our golden retriever, but the Sarı Gelin Otel is probably one of the best. The owner, Alp, wasn't there, but we were met by Volkan and the hotel's very own golden, Milo. The two dogs got along great, charging around the wonderful garden area while Volkan invited us in to the bar/dining area for coffee. He soon had a lovely warm fire going in the Turkish oven and we brought out a bottle of wine we had picked up on the road.
The room was an absolutely delightful one, with wooden floors and a large bathroom with a wonderful shower. The double doors opened out onto a patio-terrace with a view of the garden, and another window opened out onto a large lemon tree heavy with fruit. The decor is just like your grandma's guestroom, the bed is super comfortable, and the room is quiet.
We had an early start so didn't stay for breakfast, but this is one hotel we will definitely be returning to again just as soon as we can.
