Need hotel close to Antalya Otogar
 
We will be taking an overnight bus from Cappadocia and arriving in Antalya 7-9am. It is much less expensive to pick up the car from a hotel rather than the city office and the airport is far away. Can someone recommend a hotel that the car rental place will know well and somewhat close to the bus station so taxi will not cost too much.

Also, does anyone know where I can find an English bus schedule for a direct overnight bus from Nevsehir to Antlaya? Would be very help to know the exact time we should arrive meet the rental car company. Or is there not an reliable arrival time due to possible stops along the way?

Thank you,
Nicci

Hi,

It is very difficult to find bus schedules in English apart from the major Turkish bus companies. There are hundreds of bus companies in Turkey and you need to know which companies that operate on the route you want to travel.

However, a link showing bus companies operating out from Nevsehir: http://www.neredennereye.com/bus-companies/nevsehir/

I tried some of the major bus companies (Ulusoy, Varan, Metro, Kamil Koc, Asya and a few more) but none of these seem to have buses from Nevsehir to Antalya. Metro has overnight buses from Kayseri to Antalya, arriving in Antalya 7:30.

Thank you for your time and response hoxa61.

Nevsehir is a large enough place that there has to be some direct overnight buses to Antalya. We may need to wait until we arrive in Istanbul on Tuesday and get someone at the hotel there to help us. Or locate a travel agency that would have up to date info on this. We should have enough time to alter our rental car info without penalty, I hope.

Unfortunately, we are staying at a small family run place in Cappadocia and they don't seem to understand our urgency for an overnight bus schedule in regards to rental car pick up time in Antalya.

Hi,

I actually found a bus company operating between Nevshehir and Antalya. The name of the bus company is Nevsehirliler Seyahat and the bus departs Nevsehir at 21:00 and arrives in Antalya at 10:00. The bus does not start in Nevsehir, it comes from Kayseri.
