Kolin Hotel

Overlooking the Dardanelles, a short drive outside the town of Canakkale, the Kolin Hotel is a large modern and rather characterless hotel that is popular with tour groups visiting nearby Troy and Gallipoli’s First World War battlefields. The hotel’s 276 ensuite rooms and suites face either the hotel gardens or the sea and Gallipoli peninsula beyond. Each one has parquet floors and is equipped with air-conditioning, satellite television, mini-bar, safety box, and internet access. Some rooms have balconies. Sofra is the Kolin Hotel’s main restaurant and provides buffet breakfasts and International meals in the evening, while on the pool level, Zeytin serves Turkish cuisine. For a drink who could resist the prospect of visiting the wonderfully named ‘Fancy Boozy’ bar with its fine views over the Dardanelles? Leisure facilities at the Kolin Hotel include a (seasonal) outdoor swimming pool, together with an indoor pool, gym, sauna, hammam, Jacuzzi and three tennis courts.
