A straightforward 3-star city-centre hotel offering modern en-suite rooms with air conditioning at a budget-friendly rate, within walking distance of the bazaar and the riverfront. Breakfast and wifi are included, and an elevator and 24-hour desk add convenience for solo travellers who prefer a simple, central modern hotel over a historic konak. Nightly rates run about $26-43.
Kahra Otel is a 3-star city-centre hotel on Mustafa Kemal Pasa Caddesi in Amasya's Dere Mahallesi, Turkey, offering modern en-suite accommodation at the lower end of the mid-range price bracket. It provides a straightforward alternative to the boutique konak guesthouses of the Yaliboyu waterfront — functional, central, and equipped with practical amenities without the premium of a heritage-building stay. Air-conditioned rooms with en-suite bathrooms are spread across multiple floors, accessed by elevator, and backed by a 24-hour front desk. Breakfast and wifi are included in the standard room rate. Three room types are available: standard singles, standard doubles, and triples — a range that suits solo travellers, couples, and small groups travelling together. The bazaar, the main shopping streets, and city-centre cafes are all within a short walk. The Yesilirmak waterfront and the Pontic rock tombs are accessible by foot in ten to fifteen minutes. Nightly rates of roughly 1,200-2,000 Turkish lira (approx $26-43) make it one of the more affordable options in the central area for travellers who prioritise location and value over architectural character. The elevator and 24-hour desk are practical advantages over many of the small historic guesthouses, which often have neither.

- Breakfast and wifi included at one of the most affordable price points in central Amasya, from approximately $26 per night
- Triple rooms available, accommodating solo travellers and small groups needing more than a standard double
- Walking distance to the old bazaar, Ataturk Caddesi shopping district, and the Yesilirmak waterfront

Tips for visiting
- Triple rooms offer some of the best per-person value in central Amasya; suitable for three solo travellers or a family with one child sharing
- The 24-hour desk is useful for early-morning check-outs before Samsun or Ankara bus departures from the otogar
- The bazaar area is most lively during the morning until around 13:00; the hotel's central position makes combining shopping with sightseeing easy
- Mustafa Kemal Pasa Caddesi is a commercial street rather than a scenic one; plan an evening walk to the Yesilirmak promenade, about ten minutes away
- Amasya's main banks and administrative buildings are clustered near this part of the city centre — convenient for practical errands during a longer stay
