Figen Suite Hotel is a new property in the district of Kepez, a quiet residential suburb to the south of central Canakkale. More an aparthotel than a regular hotel, it offers large rooms with kitchenettes and separate sitting areas. Its main clientele are families looking for extra space, professionals coming to the nearby university or research hospital on business, and road-trippers either way toward Izmir looking for a comfy stopover without battling city traffic into town. This was firmly at my own shortlist top end: functional over historic; more interested in space and cleanliness than location within walking distance of every major sight.

Quick Summary - Figen Suite Hotel


  • The suites are much bigger than a normal hotel room. They have separate living areas and kitchenettes with fridge and stove. This is perfect for families.
  • Cleanliness can be counted as one of its strengths. The building is still new and housekeeping has high standards in all the rooms as well as common areas.
  • It is located in a quiet residential neighborhood, away from the noise of the bars and the busy ferry port in the city center. A good night’s sleep is assured.
  • The location in Kepez places you closer to the ancient city of Troy and the Museum of Troy compared to staying in the downtown area. For these particular sights, travel time is saved.
  • Another big stress reliever! Ample street parking around the hotel. Compare that to the nightmare of finding a parking spot in central Canakkale, this will do just fine.
  • × The famous wooden Trojan Horse on the waterfront and the ferry terminal is about 5 to 7 kilometers from the hotel. You cannot walk to where all the main tourist attractions are.
  • × The area is practical and handy, but unfortunately stark. More flats here than fancy views or anything of that sort.
  • × Amenity levels compare more to the boutique guesthouse end than full-service resort territory; typically no swimming pool, gym, or full-service dinner restaurant on site.
  • × If you don’t have a car then you need to use public transport. While buses are very frequent, adding reliance on them as extra travel time into your day’s schedule.

Complete Review - Figen Suite Hotel


  • Cost Effectiveness Value for money is excellent, particularly for a group or family who can take the whole suite instead of splitting into two separate rooms.
  • Service Quality Friendly and helpful service with a front desk team well versed in assisting guests to navigate their way around the local area.
  • Location Quality Location is 3/5 for general sightseeing but 5/5 if you need to be near the university or hospital.
  • Area Vibe Surroundings are residential and safe, though not particularly photogenic or exciting.
  • Cleanliness Spotlessly clean. Modern interiors are well maintained and fresh.
  • Breakfast Experience Food options are limited to the usual Turkish breakfast plate. You will likely have to head out for dinner.
