Who Stays in Beytepe and Çayyolu?
The Çayyolu–Beytepe–Ümitköy–İncek area in western Ankara is popular for its proximity to Hacettepe University Beytepe Campus, Bilkent and METU (ODTÜ), its short distance from Bilkent City Hospital and its quieter character compared with the city centre. Most people staying in the area are campus visitors, congress and symposium participants, patients' relatives, business travellers and families visiting during enrolment and graduation periods.
1. Campus Guesthouse: Hacettepe University Beytepe Guesthouse
Located within Hacettepe University's Beytepe Campus, the guesthouse removes the hassle of getting around for those attending events on campus. Rooms are limited and are generally reserved for university guests and congress and conference participants; bookings are mostly made through the event's organising committee. If you will not be doing anything off campus and a room has been allocated to you as part of the event, it is the most practical option.
2. Congress Hotel: Bilkent Hotel & Conference Center
Located next to Bilkent University, this five-star hotel, with 235 rooms, a congress centre, an outdoor pool and breakfast-inclusive stays, is built for large events. It is ideal for congresses held at Bilkent; reaching Beytepe Campus, however, requires a car journey.
3. City Hotels in Çayyolu
Hotel Excellence Inn: A 46-room city hotel in Çayyolu. It offers an open buffet breakfast, a restaurant, and meeting and wedding halls; it suits those looking for a short stay with breakfast or a venue for an event.
Dora Beytepe Otel: A 73-room hotel at the junction of Çayyolu, Beytepe, Ümitköy and İncek, open since 2018. Rooms range from 15 to 40 m²; options include single, double, twin and triple rooms, with or without air conditioning and with or without a balcony, and some rooms have a kitchen. It offers free parking and a 24/7 reception. There is no breakfast service; instead, the hotel focuses on guests staying longer, with daily, weekly and monthly stay options. It is about 12-15 minutes by car from Bilkent City Hospital and about 6 minutes by car from Koru Metro Station.
4. Suites and Apartments in Ümitköy
In Ümitköy, suite-type properties such as Deluna Ümitköy Suite appeal to those looking for accommodation with a kitchen and an apartment feel. Close to Galeria shopping centre and the metro, Ümitköy is a lively area for shopping, eating and drinking; when choosing a property, we recommend asking about parking, reception hours and cleaning frequency in advance.
