The place was genuinely lovely, with lovely decor and exactly as described. The vibe is relaxed. WiFi is good. The breakfast was a real experience, with fresh locally sourced produce. The staff were really attentive. They don’t speak English -why should they? - but they used google translate to make sure our revert need was catered for. We had booked another more expensive hotel for our 4 day stay but it was not great . I am so glad I found the Liora hotel. Taxis can pick up and drop off a few...

Lovely hotel, very comfortable mattress and pillows (but we did need to ask for an extra blanket). Nice location, easy to walk around, parking nearby with help from staff. Great breakfast.

You can reach to the old town by walk in a few min’s. Hotel was clean and service was good.
The hotels in that area are pretty costly so don’t expect to have a quality/cost ratio.
It was a good experience overall

The owner of the Hotel (Mr. Mehmet) could not have been any more helpful, all of the recommendations he made were very good. Location wise it is in a good setting, easy access to what needs to be explored around the town. Breakfast was plentiful and of good quality. Ms. Emine was very attentive and provided us with all that was needed. I would go back without hesitation.

Perfect choice for Sanliurfa. Fish pools just over the road and beautiful views from the hotel of the fish pool gardens and castle wall ruins.
Breakfast was amazing! First class. We also had a fantastic dinner in the cellar for a Turkish evening. It is pretty loud but a lot of fun with authentic Turkish music and fantastic food. The top restaurant wasn’t open that would have seen the views, I’m guessing because it was too windy?

Sanliurfa, my new favourite city. The hotel is perfect, tucked away in the alleyways and only a short walk from the high street. The hosts were just fabulous. Mert was a joy to be around, fun, engaging and inquisitive. I loved sitting in the open courtyard until late in the evening, watching them practice their Turkish dancing. A big Turkish breakfast in the morning and a short walk to the Sanliurfa archaeological museum or the Pool of Abraham. Wonderful.
