Fodor's Expert Review Elif Hatun Konağı

This boutique hotel is as good a reason as any to stop in Tarsus: it occupies a three-story restored mansion and has lots of character (wooden floors, Turkish carpets, and antique-style furnishings). The well-sized rooms are attractively done up, each with its own personality, and the whole place has a homey feel. There's a leafy courtyard, as well as an on-site restaurant and café.
