The hotel and its location
True to its name, Hotel Kale stands in the old town of Ulus near Ankara Castle. The Museum of Anatolian Civilizations, Ankara Castle and Hacı Bayram Mosque are a few minutes' walk away, and the Hamamönü quarter can also be reached on foot. Gençlik Park and Ankara Railway Station are a short drive from the hotel. Neighbouring hotels include Şahinbey Hotel, Otel Antik and Pınar Hotel.
When you book your arrival transfer, arrange the return journey at the same time. You see the fixed price for both directions up front and do not need to look for a car to Esenboğa on the day you leave. The driver comes to Hotel Kale at the time you set and takes you door to door to the airport.
