Das Eigentum — Başaran Otel
Başaran Otel sits on Giresun’s main boulevard, Atatürk Caddesi, a short walk from the harbour. The lobby feels like a calm, mid-century Turkish business hotel: wood-panelled reception, a small seating area with local newspapers, and staff who remember returning guests. Bedrooms are clean and functional, with simple wood furniture and good blackout curtains. It suits budget-conscious travellers who value location over frills — think lone travellers or small families wanting a quiet, central base.
Chroniken von Giresun
Giresun was the ancient Greek city of Kerasous, a key port on the Black Sea coast. The Roman and Byzantine periods left fortresses and trade routes, while the Ottoman era shaped its hazelnut monoculture — today Turkey produces 70% of the world’s hazelnuts, most from this province. The 19th-century Greek and Armenian merchant quarters, with ornate stone houses, survive in the old Kale district above the modern centre. Contemporary Giresun is a quiet provincial capital of 140,000, where government offices and hazelnut warehouses line the seafront, and the pace is slower than Trabzon to the east.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Giresun-Guide →Die besten Monate
June and September give you warm, sunny days (22-28°C) with low humidity and almost no rain. July is also fine, but crowds peak mid-month with the hazelnut harvest and a local music festival.
Peak / Festival Surge
July is the busy month: the Giresun International Music and Folklore Festival (mid-July) pulls visitors from across the Black Sea region. Hotel prices rise 20-30%, and rooms in central properties like Başaran Otel book up two weeks ahead. The hazelnut harvest also brings agricultural traders to the city.
Budget Schulter Saison
May and October offer discounts of 15-20% versus July, with comfortable temperatures (18-24°C in May, 14-20°C in October). Crowds thin, and the city’s weekly market (Monday on Atatürk Caddesi) is more relaxed.
Wetter & Verpackung
Giresun is one of Turkey’s wettest cities, with rain possible any month — even June can have a sudden shower. Pack a lightweight, packable waterproof jacket and a pair of sturdy walking shoes; leave the umbrella at home because the coastal wind will turn it inside out.
Live City Briefing veröffentlicht — Giresun
- The city’s main pedestrian promenade (Sahil Yolu) was resurfaced in early 2026, with new benches and lighting along the 2km seafront stretch from the harbour to the bus station. It’s now a pleasant evening walk for hotel guests.
- A new direct ferry service from Giresun to Ordu (45 minutes, departures every two hours) started in April 2026, offering a scenic alternative to the coast road. Tickets cost 35 TL one way.
- Hazelnut harvest in the surrounding villages runs from mid-July to mid-August. Expect farm tractors and workers on the roads east of the city — driving times to nearby Giresun Castle may double at weekends during peak harvest.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Başaran Otel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request rooms on the top floor (4th floor) for a quieter stay, as they are farther away from the Atatürk Bulvarı street noise. The single lift serves all floors, so any room on the higher floors will have less chance of lift noise disturbance.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms near the lift (especially on the first floor) might be affected by the lift's rumble. Also, rooms near the side ramp entrance might experience some noise from the street, but it's likely minimal.
Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's location on Atatürk Bulvarı doesn't offer scenic views. However, rooms on the higher floors (2nd-4th) might have a partially obstructed view of the surrounding cityscape.
Quietest floors
