Lake Cildir Lodge

L'hotel è costituito da alcune costruzioni tradizionali molto belle e curate sia all'esterno che all'interno; ottima accoglienza e camera ampia e confortevole. Buona la colazione.

La posizione: senza l'auto è tutto piuttosto distante.

قريب من السنتر والسوق

Erg goede eenpersoonskamer, robuust gebouw in de verlatenheid tussen Cildir en het meer. Uitstekende basis voor wandelingen naar het meer en naar het Seytan fort ten noorden van Cildir. Uitstekend ontbijt. Restaurant aan het meer (een klein uur lopen) serveert uitstekende verse forel.

Ik vond de gans op het menu in het restaurant nogal tegenvallen (beetje muf qua smaak, veel lekkerder gans gegeten in Kars).

This is a beautiful hotel, although it’s built in a very remote location. We only stayed here because bad weather left us with no other choice—it was the only accommodation available in the town before crossing into Georgia. Considering the location, I found it quite overpriced. That said, the staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely cared about their guests. One unique feature is the small museum downstairs, which displays beautiful antique rugs and historical artifacts, making the hotel feel special. The room had a large, very comfortable bed, and we had a good night’s sleep. Breakfast was made even more memorable by the sweetest nene (grandmother), who prepared it with so much warmth and care. She was absolutely lovely and made us feel at home. The only downside was the shower. It uses its own electric water heater, so the water constantly alternated between hot and cold—about a minute of hot water followed by a minute of cold. It wasn’t a major issue, but it was noticeable. Overall, despite the high price and inconsistent hot water, it’s a pleasant hotel with genuinely kind people, comfortable rooms, an interesting museum, and a warm, family-like atmosphere.

Overpriced
