I had a tremendously rich experience in Gaziantep and my accommodation here was one of the most rewarding parts of the experience. Gaziantep is a remarkable city and has put a great deal into promoting tourism. There is so much tradition in the cuisine and the architecture, both of which you will experience at Asude Konak. Not only is it like stepping back in time, the proprietors have several generations of roots in Gaziantep and will enrich your experience with their knowledge of the culture. You MUST eat here to experience the unique gastronomy of Gaziantep, which you will enjoy in the gorgeous courtyard.

My girlfriend and I planned a last minute escape from Istanbul vacation to Diyarbakir, Urfa, Antep and finally Hatay, and by far the nicest and most romantic place we stayed was Asude Konak. The restoration of the hotel is so detailed that we didn't realize it had been restored until looking at the pictures later. The room's period decor really made us feel like we were living in the late Ottoman Empire.

We had dinner out at the famous but touristic lahmacun place (İmam Çağdaş). Fortunately however, we made it back to Asude Konak in time for a special local dessert cooked by our hostess Jale Hanım, that was so delicious it made us regret not just having dinner in. Then my girlfriend and I stayed up with our hosts Çağatay Bey and Jale Hanım drinking raki and çay, and talking about the history and archaeology of Antep with the view of the neighboring Seljuk mosque in the background. The next morning we were served what has to be the biggest breakfast I've seen in Turkey, including

Very classy environs! Great location for a romantic stay in Gaziantep and centrally located for the sights and sounds of this city. The hosts are both generous and entertaining.
