La propriété — Horon
The Horon is a straightforward 3-star business hotel a short walk from Trabzon’s coastal road and central Meydan Park. It’s not trying to be boutique or charming; expect a practical lobby with dark leather sofas, a small reception desk and the faint smell of breakfast pastries from the adjoining dining room. The USP is consistency and location – you can walk to the seaside promenade and the main bazaar area in under ten minutes. Suits a traveller who wants a clean, no-frills base for exploring the city and the surrounding Black Sea region, rather than a resort-style stay.
Chroniques de Trabzon
Trabzon, founded as the Greek colony Trapezus around 756 BC, was a vital port on the Silk Road and the capital of the Empire of Trebizond from 1204 to 1461. Its architecture reflects layers of history: the 13th-century Hagia Sophia church (now a mosque) with its restored frescoes, the Ottoman-era bazaar of Çarşı, and 19th-century Pontic Greek mansions in the Ortahisar district. Today, Trabzon is a fast-growing city of over 800,000, blending conservative Islamic culture with a young, modern population and a strong regional identity centred on the Black Sea coast, tea cultivation and intense football loyalty to Trabzonspor.

Guide complet de Trabzon →Meilleurs mois
May and June for warm (20-25°C) but not oppressive weather, plus green landscapes and fewer crowds than July-August. September also works: drier than August, with the same summer heat lingering.
Peak / Festival surge
July and August are the peak season, driven by domestic Turkish tourism (families and Kurban Bayram holidays) and Gulf Arab visitors escaping their summer heat. Hotel prices can double or triple from the shoulder rate; the city feels crowded along the coast and at major sights like Sumela Monastery.
La saison des épaules
April, early May and October offer the best discounts – typically 30-50% below peak rates, with mild temperatures (12-20°C), fewer tourists, and the chance to see the countryside in blossom or autumn colours.
Météo & Emballage
Trabzon’s climate is humid subtropical with frequent, sudden rain even in summer; the city averages 170 rainy days per year. Pack a light waterproof jacket or umbrella and always have a spare pair of shoes if you plan to walk the hillside streets.
Briefing de la ville — Trabzon
- The city’s tram extension from the airport to the city centre is now fully operational, cutting taxi costs – take the tram from the airport terminal to the final stop at Meydan (€1.20 single).
- Sumela Monastery (south of Trabzon) remains open after restoration, but note that entry is now via timed tickets booked online up to a week in advance; walk-ups often face 1-2 hour queues in summer.
- The Trabzon waterfront promenade (Sahil Yolu) has added a new cycle-lane section from the Atatürk Pavilion down to the old port, but the path is occasionally blocked by construction on the new coastal hotel development near the main square.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Horon, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 3 or 4, facing away from Trabzon's main street. Less lift noise and better odds of a partial sea view if the building faces north.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms and any near the lift lobby or stairwell — the lift is small and often busy. Rooms at the back of the building near the service entrance can get kitchen/cleaning noise.
Best views

Quietest floors
Floors 3–4 are the quietest, away from the street and above common-area hubbub.
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from Trabzon's main coastal road is constant, especially during rush hour. The hotel's small lift and central stairwell carry sound. Breakfast prep in the ground-floor kitchen starts early (around 7am).

Principales attractions à Trabzon
💡 Free to walk around the exterior and climb the walls. The lower castle area is now a residential neighbourhood and not much to see. Focus on the upper castle walls for panoramic shots of the Black Sea.
💡 Cable car (teleferik) costs about 10 TL one-way (very cheap in 2025). Go just before sunset – bring a jacket as it can be windy. The tea garden charges standard prices, so you can nurse a cay for an hour without being rushed.
💡 Free entry, but you need a free ticket from the counter. The garden is the real highlight – bring a picnic and sit on one of the benches facing the sea. Best light for photos is late afternoon.
💡 Entry is around 20 TL (2025 price), but often discounted for students. The garden is free and worth a wander – look for the hidden mosaic floors in the courtyard. Ask at reception about audio guide – sometimes free if available.
💡 Go early morning (opens at 8am) to avoid tour buses and the worst of the queues. The walk up from the car park is steep, but shuttle buses run for a small fee – worth it on a hot day.
