Tusan Hotel Çanakkale is a mid-range beach resort hotel set in Güzelyalı, a coastal settlement approximately 30 km south of Çanakkale city in the province of the same name. Güzelyalı — meaning beautiful shore in Turkish — sits on the western coastline of the Biga Peninsula, facing the open Aegean rather than the enclosed Dardanelles strait, offering a quieter and more beach-focused holiday environment than the historically dense city centre. The hotel occupies a seafront position with direct access to a private beach, an uncommon feature in the northwest Aegean that makes it a popular choice for Turkish domestic families and couples during the summer season. Room types include Standard rooms, Sea-View bungalows, and Sea-View rooms; the bungalow category, arranged across the grounds with garden surroundings, is particularly suited to families seeking more space and independence from a main building. An outdoor pool supplements the private beach, and the restaurant serves a full buffet breakfast alongside a dinner service covering Aegean fish dishes and Turkish grilled meats. Breakfast is included in most rates. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout, and on-site parking accommodates guests arriving by private vehicle. Tusan is relatively isolated from central Çanakkale's sightseeing options; guests wishing to visit Troy or the Gallipoli ferry should plan for driving distances of 30–40 km into the city, making the hotel more appropriate as a leisure retreat than a touring base.
