Hotel Kervansaray Sultanhanı is a small, friendly budget guesthouse in Sultanhanı town, Aksaray province, Turkey, named after the great Sultanhanı Caravanserai that stands within easy walking distance of the property. The caravanserai, constructed in 1229 under Seljuk Sultan Alaeddin Keykubad, is the largest surviving Seljuk han in Anatolia and a defining monument of the historic Konya-Aksaray Silk Road corridor. The guesthouse's position in Sultanhanı town provides the most economical overnight base for travellers who want to visit the han outside of standard day-trip hours — particularly at dawn or dusk when the light over the monument's carved stone portal is at its most dramatic.
Accommodation at Hotel Kervansaray consists of simple, clean Standard and Family rooms with air conditioning and free WiFi. A home-style breakfast is prepared and included in the room rate, and free parking is available for arriving vehicles. The guesthouse operates on a small, personal scale with attentive service that distinguishes it markedly from larger city hotels in Aksaray. At 700–1,300 TRY per night, it is the most affordable overnight option in Sultanhanı town. A guest rating of 4.1 reflects warm hospitality and the quality of home-cooked breakfast among reviewers. Sultanhanı is approximately 60 km west of Aksaray city and 120 km east of Konya on the E-90 highway, making Hotel Kervansaray a practical stop for long-distance Silk Road route travellers as well as those dedicating a dedicated visit to the caravanserai monument.

Tips for visiting
- The Sultanhanı Caravanserai is least crowded at opening time and in the late afternoon — staying overnight enables visits at both ends of the day
- Inquire at the guesthouse about dervish ceremony evenings occasionally held in the caravanserai's great courtyard
- Bring cash — a small family guesthouse may not accept card payments, and the nearest ATM may be in Aksaray city
- The E-90 highway makes Sultanhanı easy to reach from both Konya (120 km west) and Aksaray (60 km east); allow buffer time for rural road conditions
- Ask the hosts about the caravanserai's current entry fee and opening hours before visiting, as these can vary seasonally
