ACCOMMODATIONS
We opt for charming and culturally authentic instead of Western styled deluxe hotels.
The majority of places we stay reflect the culture and flavor of Turkey. In Istanbul for example we have stayed in a Special Class Hotel, the Spina Hotel (hotelspina.com), in the lovely Sutanahmet district. Sultanahmet stands right on top of the ancient Byzantine settlement. This is "Old Istanbul", a UNESCO designated World Heritage Site which will be our home base while in Istanbul. Spina Hotel is a converted historical wooden hotel that was formed by the restoration of a Turkish house dating to the 19th century. This hotel is situated between two of the most famous landmarks in Turkey: the Blue Mosque and Aya Sofya. Special Class hotels tend to have fewer rooms and are more personal. Clara and I started staying at Spina four years ago and having an already established relationship pays dividends.
The other key Turkey hubs are Goreme (Cappadocia region) and Sirince (near Izmir). Our group will be 20 max including me, Clara, a guide and bus driver. We will stay in a cave hotel in Goreme with gorgeous views. In Sirince we'll stay at a charming pension in an idyllic setting.
