$138 for nice room with two comfortable beds in classy rooms. From the outside it looks like a rundown hotel but inside it is very upgraded and remodeled with tile and marble. There are several elevators in various areas to the rooms. There is cool AC, hot shower, fridge and a pool. The TV has many channels. The ceilings near the window in the bedroom is low but the room very classy. It is quiet during the day but at night there is loud music from the disco next door. Taxi service to the airport is 50 lira using their taxi day or night. Watch out as restaurant prices are very high. The downtown location is in easy walking distance to local sites. Local restaurants that are very affordable.

Hotel Büyūk Velic is in the Sahinbey area in Gaziantep. There are other hotels and restaurants nearby. Streets nearby were affected by the 2023 earthquake and buildings have been demolished. It is just off a main through route. There is no car park but nearby street parking is available. This is a busy area served by local buses. The hotel is dated and many areas show signs of wear but everything in the room and ensuite shower room seemed clean. The large room had a comfortable bed, fridge, TV, hair dryer and seating. The toiletries provided were adequate. Reception was functional. Some English spoken. Turkish breakfast was served as a buffet. Items ran out and were slowly replenished. Everything was OK. We were watched closely by our fellow guests as our ethnicity stood out. Different to our experience anywhere else in Türkiye. Sleep was disturbed by street noise and gun fire. We felt uncomfortable walking in nearby streets but not in other areas of Gaziantep.. This environment caused us to move hotels. We won't be back because we felt more welcome at other hotels.
