Golden Star Hotel  

On Side’s sandy stretch just west of the old town — a beach hotel about a 10–15 minute walk from Side’s Ancient Theater, Side Museum, the Temple of Apollo and the harbor. Perfect base for beach time and quick trips into the historic center.

A small, family-run property with roughly 33 rooms across four floors. Rooms are air-conditioned and come with refrigerators, minibars and private balconies that open to pleasant views. Expect a low-key, beachy vibe and a 24-hour front desk.

Outdoor pool and a private sandy beach right by the hotel, plus a beachside restaurant/bar that doubles as a nightclub/disco. On-site café, poolside lounging and room service keep things easy. There’s also currency exchange, doctor/transfer services, car rental and laundry available.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi across the property and free self-parking. Additional practical touches include a safe deposit box, dry cleaning and a 24-hour reception.

House restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner and the beach restaurant-bar stays lively into the evening; 24-hour room service is available. For local flavor, explore nearby barbecue spots such as Side Ocakbasi Restaurant, Kibrit Kasap & Manqal and Miami Restaurant & Bar.
