Cheap Hotels in Turkey

The crossroads of eastern and western cultures, Turkey is a land that has been settled by many of the ancient civilisations and as such there is a rich history everywhere you go. The country also boasts some stunning coastline so holidays in Turkey can be pretty varied. It can be worth considering car hire in Turkey if you want to combine relaxation and sightseeing. Epheseus and Pamukkale are great day-trips if you're on holiday at one of the southern resorts.

Choosing a Turkey hotel

One of the reasons holidays in this country have really taken off in the last few years is the availability of cheap hotels in Turkey. It's particularly easy to find great deals on hotels in Turke'?s beach resorts such as Bodrum and Antalya, but if you want a more grand hotel Turkey can also provide it, with all the big names in luxury in the major resorts. Consider a city break in Istanbul and you will find Turkey hotels that meet the highest standards, although don't expect them to come cheap! As an alternative, agro-tourism is also taking off, where you stay on a farm and work a little for your board and meals.

When to visit Turkey

With such a vast country there are plenty of events on in different spots throughout the year. If you want to visit the Aegean coast or the Mediterranean resorts, try to avoid mid-summer as temperatures get pretty scorching and you'll find you stay inside or in the shade most of the day. Either side, such as June and September are great though. For the area around Istanbul, consider spring and autumn, as you'll get lovely weather but avoid the peak summer crowds. You can also visit this city in winter, when temperatures hover around 8°C in the daytime.
