The hotel is about 12 km from Antalya Airport and sits on the third coastline line, with a public sandy beach 500 meters away where umbrellas and sunbeds are available for rent.

The hotel is located on a quiet side street despite being centrally placed, providing a balance between accessibility to bars and restaurants and a restful environment.

A very pleasant, friendly place in Antalya Kaleiçi. I've stayed in other hotels in Antalya before, but this place was better than I expected. The staff at the guesthouse are very nice (they also speak fluent English) and are always happy to help and provide information. Shops and public transportation are very close. The rooms are clean and very nice, with kitchenettes. I highly recommend the Erkal Pension. I'd always be happy to return.

I had an extended stay at this hotel, and it was an great experience. The location is just perfect, right in the heart of the old town, with all the main sites and attractions within walking distance. My room was spacious and comfortable, with a large bathroom, fridge, and kettle—everything you need for a pleasant stay. The internet service was reliable, which was a big plus for getting work done. Despite being so central, it's located on a quiet side street, ensuring a restful environment. The staff spoke English and were always friendly and helpful. Highly recommended, it's good value for money.

This place was not clean, smells bad and had boxes and equipment all around the reception area so it doesn’t feel welcoming. They also don’t clean the rooms daily and the towels were dirty! Location of this hotel is the only thing good about it. Would not recommend!

Located in the old neighborhood of Kaleci within
walking distance to the bars and restaurants, I can say the location was perfect. However, the building was noticeably worn out and filled with a smell of urine. Although the room was clean, it was unattractive; even the bed sheets were old and did not match. The room had a view of the building courtyard, which was messy and dirty. I'm glad I only stayed there for one night. On a positive note, the
receptionist was very friendly and spoke English well
enough.

A good budget option for a couple of nights, the most important advantage is the location, in the center of the old city. A good alternative for those who don't like hostels.

Erkal Pansion in Antalya, Turkey, enjoys a prime location and the owner's hospitable nature adds a welcoming touch. However, it's regrettable that the nighttime experience can be overshadowed by the night watchman's behavior. Some guests have reported feeling uncomfortable due to the watchman's demeanor, which resembles that of a hostel rather than a guest-oriented establishment.
While the advantageous location and owner's assistance contribute positively to the stay, addressing the night watchman's approach would significantly enhance the overall experience. Ensuring a consistently respectful and courteous atmosphere, regardless of the time, is vital for Erkal Pansion to provide a more enjoyable and harmonious environment for all its guests.

Incomplete kitchenette. Shower takes long to get warm and does not have proper drainage. Towel had specks on it, sure it was washed but did not look fresh. Very cold white lighting. Bed is fine and staff was friendly. Lots of potential for this place, but lacking at the moment.
05.05.2022
In Erkal Pansion I spent almost two month. I had everything I needed for such a long staying living: private shower and kitchen, all essentials for basic cooking, comfortable bed and perfect rent price. The location is just perfect!
Turgut and his collegues are very nice and helpfull people. They helped me with all my questions and issues which could occur.
I definitely advise Erkal Pansion as a perfect place to stay in Antalya.

The service is a little lame. But the staff are responsive and good people, trying to help in any way they can. Also, very beautiful views from the window delight you.

This is a nice small hotel centrally located in Antalya old town. Big and nice rooms and extremely helpful hotel personnel.
22.08.2025
The room was vintage. Some of the stuff in the room is a bit old like the fridge and the jacuzzi shower pod. No breakfast buffet. Quiet at night, the bed was quite comfortable. I looked at their business card, at the reception “Dimitri Vasiliev, General Manager” That didn’t sound like a Turkish name, I asked, “Is he Russian” “Yes” “but he’s Jewish, right?” I asked. “Yes”. So if you’d like to support local Jewish businesses, this is the right place to stay.

Oh, my God, I really want to give a bad review to this hotel. It's so noisy at night. It's not soundproof. It's not quiet outside until three o'clock in the morning. It's on the roadside. There is a hard and thin blanket on the bed. The smell of wood in the room is so strong. People who don't sleep well should not live in this room
08.07.2025
Excellent boutique hotel. Service was impeccable and the breakfast spread was well done. The only challenge for us was that the AC was off ahead of our arrival in our room. This meant that it took 24 hours before it got comfortably cool enough in the room for us to sleep. Additionally the internet TV was not connected to the internet so we could not access content. These small details do not detract from an otherwise excellent stay.

It was a quiet and peaceful holiday in the old city of Antalya, close to entertainment centers. A concept that was not crowded was considered for breakfast by the pool. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. It was great in terms of price-performance evaluation.

Reviews12.10.2022
A particularly charming boutique hotel located in the old city of Antalya. We were 4 people and stayed in the Ottoman room; An extremely luxurious room, 90 meters including 2 bedrooms, a living room, an extremely large bathroom with two sinks and a huge jacuzzi. The breakfast is excellent and full of good things. The staff is professional, welcoming, helpful and extremely kind. Always taking care of the well-being of the guests!!! The hotel is clean, the atmosphere is pleasant and it is located in an excellent location; Only 15 minutes from the marina and within walking distance of all shops, restaurants, cafes, pubs and bars. An excellent hotel, and an attractive price - I highly recommend it!!!
The pool is small, not suitable for those who want to spend a day in the pool, but more for rest and relaxation. It's important to know that all the hotels in the old city are located between entertainment venues, so it's not particularly quiet at night, but we travel all day and come back tired, so it didn't disturb our sleep :)

Fantastic ambience and location, excellent service and a friendly owner. The breakfast spread that they lay out is the stuff of legend.

The rooms are clean and spacious. The Staff are attentive and because it is a small hotel they really make you feel welcome. Lovely to stay in the Old Town. Great area to walk around in. The old bazaar is within a 5 minute walk and the main shopping areas within 10 to 15 minutes walk. There are a lot of historical sites to see with the coast on your doorstep. I would 100% stay here again.

Location was perfect if you want a peaceful night of sleep in the old town and also want to be close to the sights you want to see in the day. We initially had a room close to the center of the town which is where the beer garden / pubs where. Convenient but was impossible to sleep. We moved to Eski Masal thankfully, the rooms are spacious, we took the Anatolian suite which is on the second floor. Feels like a cultural experience so no complaints about decor which is kept to a minimum in the room. Toilets were amazing, equipped with a modern shower with massage features and there’s also a huge jacuzzi. Only issue were the towels have a bad smell as perhaps the room has not been used in a while ? Minor problem as everything else is good. Breakfast was a good selection given the exclusivity of the hotel meant there would not be many guests (5 suites max?) at one point. Nice pool too. Receptionist was helpful as offered to cook scrambled eggs on the side as the buffet spread was mainly cold. Would recommend to anyone who isn’t looking for a crazy night out in Antalya and wants a peaceful evening uninterrupted by the loudness of the streets should you find yourself staying near pubs and restaurants which is an 80% chance.
