The Property — Hanzade park otel
A clean, friendly 3-star on Trabzon's northern edge, by the Black Sea coast road and a short walk from the Atatürk Köşkü park. The lobby is small and functional—tiled floors, a reception desk with a bowl of Turkish delight, and a lingering scent of pine from the hills behind. Guests are mostly Turkish families or budget-conscious couples who want a quiet base for exploring the city; it’s no-frills but decent value, with a modest breakfast terrace overlooking side streets rather than the sea.
Chronicles of Trabzon
Trabzon was founded as the Greek colony Trapezus around 750 BC, later becoming the capital of the Komnenian Empire during the medieval period. Its architecture mixes Byzantine churches, Ottoman mosques, and 19th-century merchants' mansions—the Hagia Sophia mosque (originally a church) is a fine example. Today it's a major Black Sea port and the commercial hub of Turkey's tea and hazelnut region, with a conservative yet outward-looking culture that's proud of its Laz and Greek heritage. The old bazaar around the Ortahisar neighbourhood still feels lively and local, with copper workshops and tea gardens tucked off the main streets.
Best Time to Visit
Full Trabzon guide →Best months
June to September: warm, dry days (22-28°C) perfect for the Black Sea coast and highland plateaus like Uzungöl. July is peak tourist season but the weather is reliable.
Peak / festival surge
July and August: school holidays fill the city with Turkish tourists, and European visitors join. Hotel rates can double from shoulder season, especially for July weekends. The Trabzon International Summer Festival (music and dance events) in late July adds to demand.
Budget shoulder season
May and October: still pleasant (15-20°C), with 30-40% lower room rates and far fewer crowds. May brings spring flowers; October is harvest time for hazelnuts and tea.
Weather & packing
Trabzon's summers are muggy, with the Black Sea moisture making it feel stickier than the temperature suggests. Pack light cotton layers, a rain jacket, and sturdy shoes for cobbled hills—you'll walk a lot.
Live City Briefing — Trabzon
- The new Trabzon city tram line, connecting the airport to the central square (Meydan), is scheduled to open in late 2025—check if it's fully running by July; it will cut taxi dependency.
- Major roadworks on the coastal highway (D010) near the Hanzade Park are expected to continue through summer 2026, causing possible delays when heading to the Akyazı beach or east towards Rize.
- The nearby Atatürk Köşkü museum (a historic villa) has just completed a restoration of its period interiors and reopened in early 2026, offering a new visitor route through the gardens.

Top Attractions in 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.
