Comfortable hotel, spacious rooms (we stayed at a family number), quiet location but very close to all amenities (i.e. shops etc). About 7 min drive from Patara beach.
The breakfast though was a bit too simple.
Set among fragrant gardens and within walking distance to Patara, Pataros Hotel offers tranquil accommodation with outdoor pool nearby Patara archaeological area.

We have stayed at the Pataros hotel before, several times, and love the fact it hasn't changed. The staff are amazing, as is the food, and it is such a beautiful location. We didn't want to leave.

We had a wonderful stay in Patara ! The host family was very welcoming and caring, with a delicious homemade breakfast in the morning. The hotel is comfortable, quiet and peaceful, and we had a beautiful view of the sea from our room. I only wish we could have stayed longer !

The hotel was really lovely - good size, clean rooms with little balconies to sit out on and drying lines and pegs. Decent bathrooms with hot water, large towels and toiletries - spotlessly clean. Comfy beds. The swimming pool is proper swimming size and the lounging area is secluded. The bar area is delightful and the buffet breakfast delicious with lots of variety. The hotel has more of a ‘boutique’ vibe than the pictures suggest. The best thing though is the manager and team. They all care so much and nothing is too much trouble. I hurt my ankle walking the Lycian Way so they arranged a car to pick us up, moved our rooms to bottom floor, sorted an ice pack etc. We were comfy in the bar one night (in our fave spot), so a local restaurant brought us food over. Proper customer service - not OTT or too present - we just felt safe and looked after. Highly recommend. ( the local village and local cafes/restaurants all super lovely too)
This family-run pension is set in a peaceful area of Patara village, surrounded by the hills, olive trees and pine forests.

Mr Jet, Mrs Fatma and Mr Philip are all so nice and sweet. Very welcoming. The bed was very comfortable, I had a lovely small balcony where I could dry my clothes, and the breakfast in the morning was delicious. Everything from their garden and stock. Thank you!

Good value clean friendly hotel with spacious rooms and great swimming pool
Located in the heart of the village of Patara, the Golden Pension is a delightful family-owned pension offering clean, comfortable accommodation alongside a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
Visited a couple of times before. Village restaurants not so good as previously. Simbar charging more than in Kalkan for cocktails! Village generally very quiet this time, no buzz, however first time visiting in Sept, which may account for this. Bus timetable not worth publishing as they come when they want and don't always go to the bus station.

Despite its popularity, Patara remains a traditional Turkish village. This is because it is protected for both archaeological and nature reasons. Turtles nest here. We visit regularly. It is all accessible on foot but if it's very hot or you have trouble walking any distance, it is best to get the dolmus to the beach. Yes, you have to pay to enter the beach but this is because it is part of an archaeological site. The beach was very, very crowded on a hot summer weekend (avoid in high season if you don't like crowds) but it is so long it's easy to find space to sit and swim. Patara is very convenient for visits to other sites like Xanthos and Letoon.

Patara must be the one of the most perfect holiday destinations. An enormous, world class beach which means it is never crowded.
In addition you walk past or through the excavated Lycian and Roman ruins of the ancient port city - amazing!
And, of course, the wonderful generosity and good nature of the locals.

The village was small and very chilled with no hassle.
The village was small and very chilled with no hassle. I'm a single Mum and went with my 11 year old daughter and it was such a safe environment. The people were really helpful and friendly. It actually reminded me a bit of Guatemala, bit of a hippy laid back vibe, no McDonalds etc in sight! The beach was amazing, great waves for body boarding and miles of golden sand with only one beach restaurant, so unspoilt! Surrounded by ruins and a laying ground for turtles has ensured Patara beach isn't flooded with shops, beach bars etc, so 10 miles of loveliness. Best beach I've ever been to in Europe easily... Food in Patara is really affordable, booze a bit more (Muslim country) but fine. Some restaurants don't sell booze but plenty do! Spent so much less this holiday than in Greece. I never usually go to the same place twice but would seriously consider returning to Patara. Loved it!
- Very well maintained green area with a beautiful view of the pool and palm trees from the balcony. The rooms are clean and tidy. Good wi-fi.
- Delicious breakfasts, there are always fresh seasonal fruits and vegetables.
- Attentive host and his family are always ready to help solve any problems.
- A gorgeous sandy beach, which can be reached in several ways. In the evening, you can go to the sand dunes and admire the sunset.
Thank you for your hospitality, we enjoyed everything! Highly recommended!
This was probably one of our favorite places we stayed in Turkey and we stayed at all places we rated at least a 9 out of 10. The staff is incredibly friendly and the small bungalow hotel style rooms are awesome. You have your own front porch area and even a clothes line to hang clothes. There are food gardens all around the rooms. The restaurant here is AMAZING. There are a few parking spots on the hotel property If you’re driving. I highly recommend this hotel!
The view from the balcony is really nice, towards the mountains and a town below. The garden of the hotel is really beautiful, full of various plants that create a really cozy atmosphere of the place. Another plus is that the breakfast terrace is located just above the garden, so you can enjoy this nice place even more. The breakfast is good, one of the few hotels I've visited in Turkey that serve delicious cookies :)
The staff was very helpfull and everyone was really nice ☺️
The breakfast was good.
They have a free shuttle service to the beach at 11:00am and they get you back from the beach at 4:30 pm, you'll just have to pay for the entrance of the patara beach. (in taxi you have to pay 50tl one way)
They serve tea and cake at 05:00pm.
Plus they helped me to change money.
The black cat was too cute ☺️
Nice cozy location with excellent view and clean house. Enjoyed the pool and the Host was excellent in answering any Qs or needs. Will visit again. You can drive around and discover many beaches all the way to Antalia!!!! Many restaurants close to the Villa and the kitchen was fully equipped!!!! Many thanks for sharing your property with us!!!!
Great location in a small town near Patara beach and dunes. We liked the breakfast very much and the terrace where it was served is beautiful. Markets and restaurants are very close and offer good prices. There is a fridge and kettle on the first floor if you need it. Free and fast wifi, laundry service for a reasonable fee.
Well located in Gelemis, nicely renovated and decorated. Beautiful swimming pool area, with lovely flowers.
Comfortable room with a little balcony.
Very nice materials used, especially in the bathroom.
Very good breakfast, also a nice garden bar at night.
Kind and helpful staff.
Parking possible in front of the hotel
We had a very relaxing stay at this especially wonderful place. The kids loved the swimmingpool. The room was very nice and clean, the garden beautiful and with turtles and chicken. Patara village and beach are close. The owners are very kind and helpful. We made friends with other families. 🥰
We had superior bungalow which was very nice, comfortable and clean. It seems that basic bungalows as well as camping ground is nice. It has great location, right in the centre of small Patara. Breakfast is great! Staff is extremely friendly. The do speak English, French, Turkish...
We loved the seclusion, location and views. Cesmi, the owner was always available for advice and help and sorted out the few issues that we had, promptly and efficiently. The bottle of Patara wine was a lovely welcome gesture and the home baked bread was greatly appreciated.
Very relaxed and peaceful in the mids of olive groves, after the chaos of Oludeniz a very welcome change. Nice pool, great vistas, right next to the ancient Patara archaeological site. Simple yet satisfying breakfast with home made fruit jams, olives, fresh bread and veggies
Excelent cozy hotel. One of the best in that area. Friendly staff. Clean and bright room. Flowers and greens outside. Comfortable atmosphere. If I would come to Patara again, I would like to stay in this hotel again. Thanks a lot!
The only moment we were satisfied with our holiday was Patara beach. I would like to say this for those who do not know; Since Patara beach is a historical place, beach entrance and sunbeds / umbrellas are always charged.
We have stayed at the Pataros hotel before, several times, and love the fact it hasn't changed. The staff are amazing, as is the food, and it is such a beautiful location. We didn't want to leave.
the pension was very clean, warm hearted owner and his wife, in the center of the city and close to the beach and the ancient city
very nice, healthy and generous breakfast
Just loved the hotel very quaint, loved that they had hammocks swings.The staff are lovely and helpful, no loud music it's a hotel that will take all your stress away
