A beautifully restored boutique hotel occupying a historic Ottoman mansion in the heart of Kaleiçi old town. The hotel features a stunning courtyard pool, individually decorated rooms with antique furnishings, and excellent service in a uniquely historic setting.
Alp Pasa Hotel occupies a beautifully restored Ottoman mansion on Hesapçı Sokak in Kaleiçi, Antalya's ancient walled old town, approximately 500 meters from the Roman harbor and a short walk from Hadrian's Gate. The building dates to the 18th century and was converted into a boutique hotel in the 1980s, making it one of the pioneering heritage accommodation options in the region. Additional wings have been incorporated into neighboring historic structures over the years, giving the property a labyrinthine layout of stone corridors, wooden staircases, and interconnected courtyard spaces.
The hotel offers around 80 rooms and suites spread across the original mansion and its connected annexes. Each room is individually decorated, combining antique Ottoman furniture, kilim rugs, carved wooden headboards, and hand-painted ceramic accents with modern bathrooms and air conditioning. Room categories include standard courtyard-facing rooms, superior rooms, and suites with private terraces. Views from upper-floor rooms extend across the ancient Roman walls and rooftops of the old city toward the Mediterranean.
The centerpiece of the common areas is a stone-paved courtyard with a small outdoor swimming pool, surrounded by orange trees and flowering plants. A covered terrace adjacent to the pool serves as the breakfast and dining area, offering a buffet in the mornings and à-la-carte meals through the day. The hotel bar operates in the evenings and is a popular gathering place for guests.
Service at Alp Pasa is traditionally oriented, with staff who know the old town well and readily advise on local restaurants, hammams, and archaeological sites. The property is within walking distance of the Antalya Museum, Yivli Minaret, Roman harbor, and dozens of independent restaurants and cafés. It is frequently recommended for independent travelers and history enthusiasts seeking authentic immersion in Antalya's historic fabric.

- Kaleiçi streets are narrow and only partly accessible by vehicle — pack light and wear comfortable shoes for the stone cobbles.
- Breakfast on the courtyard terrace is a highlight; request an outdoor table when making the booking.
- The hotel is a short walk from the Antalya Archaeological Museum and the Düden Waterfalls — both are worthwhile half-day excursions.
- Street noise from the old town's restaurants and bars can carry into some rooms on summer evenings; light sleepers may want earplugs.
