The Property — 22 Riders Inn
22 Riders Inn is a functional 3-star hotel in central Mugla, a short walk from the main square. The lobby is small and businesslike, with tiled floors and a reception desk staffed by efficient, low-key personnel. It serves budget-conscious travellers who need a clean, no-frills base for exploring the city or the nearby Bodrum peninsula. The USP is its location: it is one of few affordable options within Mugla city proper, not on the tourist coast.
Chronicles of Mugla
Mugla was founded in antiquity as the Carian settlement of Mobolla, later controlled by Rhodes and then the Ottoman Empire. Its architecture evolved under Ottoman rule, with two-storey whitewashed houses, traditional Turkish courtyards, and wooden bay windows (cumba) still visible in the old quarter. In the 20th century, Mugla became the administrative capital of its province, a quieter alternative to coastal resorts. Today it retains a conservative, small-city identity, with a university and a market economy tied to agriculture and local government. Its cultural life centres on the weekly farmers' market and the Ulu Camii mosque complex.
Best Time to Visit
Full Mugla guide →Best months
May and September: daytime temperatures in the mid-20s °C, low humidity, and far fewer tourists than July–August. April and October are also pleasant but cooler.
Peak / festival surge
July and August: temperatures regularly hit 35–40°C, and Mugla is used as a stopover for Bodrum-bound visitors. Hotel prices at 22 Riders Inn can rise by 30–40% over shoulder-season rates. No major local festivals, but Mugla's proximity to the Bodrum coast drives demand.
Budget shoulder season
April, May, October: these months offer 20–30% discounts on summer room rates, mild mornings (15–20°C), clear skies, and minimal queueing at city sights like the old caravanserai or the Arasta Bazaar.
Weather & packing
Mugla's inland location means summer nights can drop to 18°C, much cooler than the coastal resorts. Pack a light jacket or cardigan for evenings, plus a sun hat and sunscreen for daytime.
Live City Briefing — Mugla
- Mugla's city centre is undergoing a multi-year pedestrianisation project on Atatürk Caddesi, due to complete in late 2026. Expect limited vehicle access and some construction noise near the hotel until October.
- The new Mugla–Bodrum express bus service (line 48) launched in March 2026, cutting travel time to the coast to 35 minutes. It runs hourly from the bus station, a 10-minute walk from the hotel.
- Seasonal note: July 2026 falls during Ramadan (expected 28 Feb–30 Mar) so no significant disruption; however, eateries near the Ulu Camii may close later during iftar in the evening, offering local specials.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to 22 Riders Inn, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 2nd or 3rd floor at the rear of the building, away from the street. These upper floors reduce street-level noise and offer slightly better light, as Mugla’s low-rise buildings shouldn't block views.
Rooms to avoid
Steer clear of ground-floor rooms (especially those facing the street). Street-level units get the brunt of traffic noise from Mugla’s main roads, and the 3-star standard means thin windows. Also avoid rooms directly opposite the lift shaft—you’ll hear doors and chatter.
Best views
Rooms at the back of the hotel (not facing the street) likely look onto a courtyard or adjacent buildings. Mugla is inland, so don’t expect sea views; you’ll get a quiet, local scene of houses and gardens. Front-facing rooms see the street and possibly mountains in the distance, but with added noise.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 are the quietest at 22 Riders Inn, as they’re above street hubbub but below any roof-level machinery (if present). The 1st floor may catch lobby noise if the reception is busy.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel is on a street in central Mugla, so traffic noise (cars, scooters, delivery vans) is the main issue. Lift machinery on the ground floor may hum in adjacent rooms. No bar or major nightlife is evident, but a small restaurant or lounge could cause evening chatter.
Insider tips
1) Ask for a room at the back when booking—staff at 3-star hotels often respond to polite requests. 2) If the hotel has parking, request a space in advance (Mugla’s streets can be tight). Also check if there’s a rooftop terrace; it’s a common feature in budget hotels and offers a quiet spot to relax.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
