Katerina sarayı definitely exceeds expectations. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in the beautiful city of Kars. An iconic hotel thoughtfully decorated A perfect balance of comfort and hospitality! All of the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and at home. I don’t remember the name of each one of them but they were all professional and nice always ready to help and assist. Miss Melisa, Ebru and Mr Erhan were extremely helpful with everything! Oh not to forget the breakfast was so delicious! What truly sets Katerina Sarayi apart for me is Niko (the cat) and the outstanding service! I may have repeatedly emphasized on the service and hospitality but having stayed in many different hotels around the world I’ve never came across such a beautiful team! Looking forward to go back! Heartfelt Thank you to everyone!

We were treated as honored guests at this beautiful hotel. Situated less then 10 minutes walk from the centre of Kars, Katerina Sarayi is bordered on one side by a lovely garden next to the rushing Kars Stream, and a steep, rocky rise to Kars Castle at the back. This is fairy tale accommodation, with beautiful rooms, excellent breakfast and royal attentivenes /courtesy from management and staff. Drinks - hot and cold - were always available in the garden and the lobby is warm and cosy, despite the formal antique decor. The resident cat adds extra atmosphere. The only negative aspect was communication before arrival. I tried messages through Wotif and the 2 email addresses on the hotel website, which bounced, so I could not confirm the booking, payment details or make transport reservations. There is not much English spoken, so it was also too difficult by phone. It all worked out however, and we had a wonderful stay - thank you!

This is a very historic hotel. It’s located at the base of the Kars Citadel which was nice. WiFi was non existent in my room. I had to go to the lobby to get a weak Signal. I was woken up throughout the night due to dogs barking. The breakfast was decent and the coffee delicious. The hotel does not offer tours or transportation at the front desk as the website states. Taxi is what they will book for you—including to Ani. Having a hot tea outside by the river was quite nice. There was even cats to keep you company. If it wasn’t for the issue with the dogs, WiFi accessibility and transportation I would rate it a 10/10. But these three issues were important ones for me. So I’d give them a 5/10. I checked out after the first day and now at a central location where none of these issues exist. I even revived accurate information on getting to Ani by shuttle bus. Amazing. A very nice, historic hotel but I won’t be returning

Mükemmel
Öncelikle en önemlisi çalışan personeller çok güleryüzlü ve ilgiliydi . Her konuda yardımcı olup çok özenli davrandılar. Hepsine çok teşekkür ediyorum. Odalar gerçekten saray odası gibi çok güzel ve temizdi. Nevresimlerin temizliği mis deterjan kokusundan bile belli oluyordu. İhtiyacınız olacabilecek her şey odalarda mevcuttu ayrıca.Kahvaltısı ayrıca çok lezzetli ve çok fazla çeşitliydi. Otelin bahçesi ve çevresi çok keyifliydi. Konum olarak da çok güzel bir yerdeydi. Çok keyif aldım. Tereddütsüz tercih edilir.

Çok çok memnun kaldım. Rezervasyon yaparken havalimanından transferle ilgili yazmıştım. Hemen geri aradılar. Ani ve Çıldır için de ulaşım desteği verdiler, beraber çalıştıkları taksi var ve çok yardımcı oldu Ulaş bey. Otelde Sultan Hanım ve Melisa Hanım da çok yardımcılardı ve ismini öğrenemediğim kişiler de çok saygılı ve yardımcılardı kahvaltı servisinde. Otelin yeri çok güzel, merkezi, çayın hemen yanında ve su sesini duymak çok güzel (gerçi pencereyi kapatınca çok duyulmuyor). Kahvaltı da oldukça iyiydi, çok çeşit vardı ve herşey çok güzeldi. Genel olarak çok tavsiye ederim. Eylül başında seyahat ettik ve kışın yeniden gelmek isterim.

Kahvaltı bu konaklamaya yakışmadı
Kahvaltı ve derenin kokusu dışında sıkıntılı durum yoktu. Kahvaltıda sunulanların hepsi 2. sınıf ticari marketlerde satılan ürünlerdi. Yansıtılan otel kalitesine uygun gıda çeşitleri değildi ve kete dışında geleneksel hiç bir yöre gıdası sunulmadı. Lezzet yoktu ve ürün kalitesi çok zayıftı.
