There are Madi Hotel, Madi Hotel 2 and Madi Hotel Inci. I stayed just Madi Hotel. Once you make reservation, you can stay either of them. Building itself looks old but each room is new and clean, my impression was that renovation was just completed. Also it looks like an apartment. Location: It is convenient, you can walk up to Ulus Station and Roman bath. Ankara Castle is kind of far, but it is still walk distance. If taxi drivers don’t know the location, you can mention “Ugrak Lokantasi” , which is famous chicken restaurant. It is 2 minutes walking from there. Room: Unfortunately, I was provided smoking room, but there might not be non-smoking room in this hotel. Furniture is very new. It is not so spacious but it is quite OK. Daily make-up, bed linen is clean. Bathroom is big enough and neat, no problem with hot shower and water pressure. Breakfast: plentiful. I enjoyed it. I stayed several places in Turkey, Breakfast here is the second best. Staff: no one speaks English, I couldn’t communicate at all, as I didn’t have any Turkish Language book. In general, I had the hardest time in Ankara in terms of language(English). They have pick-up service from airport, which costs - 1~4 pax Euro 40 / 5~9 pax Euro 80. I took Havas (10TL) from airport, which goes to 19 Mayis Stadi (Stadium), then taxi from there to get to hotel. It cost about 5TL by meter, but I had to pay 11 TL in total. I don’t know why, it might be minimum charge from the stadium. There is Turkish Bath next to this hotel. (I had no time to try !) There are many eateries nearby, also supermarket and pub.
