An old, newly renovated hotel. Traditional cousine. Clean rooms good hospitality. Too much conservative customer. All drinks with paid and expensive. Landscape stunning!! Kocatsın near lake, choose from lake side rooms...

our trip to Abant from Istanbul took around 3hrs.. when we got there.. we were amazed by the beautiful forests, the cleanliness, the crystal clear lake and the weather. u can take a tour around the like via a car, a carriage or by riding a horse.. and riding a horse i did.. went rushing through the forests.. i was joyed.. took a walk with my family around the lake and through the forest..
for lunch.. we stopped by "albalik et mangal" in Abant Park.. the view is amazing.. u can seat right next to the river amidst the forest.. the food was super amazing and in good portions.. the vegs were so fresh they never went to the supermarket.. same goes to the yogurt.. bread.. and meat.. the water they served was fresh from the river.. and for dessert i had a konafa.. which was very delicious.. the price tag? cheapest so far during my stay in turkey.. payed 163 turkish liras for 7 people.. very cheap..
forgot to mention.. the resteraunt is being run by a family..

It’s quite a joy for nature lovers to be able to enjoy such large lake. What define Abant are the services & facilities all around. When you reach the lake edge by car you can BBQ, enjoy a horse ride (10 minutes for 10 TL) or even breathe clean air. We know it was hot that day but everybody else in the northern hemisphere was complaining about a heat wave. We spent 2 hours before the sunset staring at the serenity nature provides. As a photographer; I advise everybody to visit right after sunrise or before sunset.
If you got only one chance to visit a lake in Bolu go to Golcuk. Abant is about 25Km from Bolu center while Golcuk is just outside the city center. Both lakes have about 8 KM well maintained roads. On your way back you can stop by the road side villagers selling some of their produce of Honey & Jam. Some also sell village butter, eggs & bread. You are taking your chances with these sellers because of the nature of their goods. Pass by several before buying & you will be able to tell what’s what.

This place was suggested to me by my travel agent and he booked a 4 night stay!!! I am not at all happy with this place, there are too many dogs outside so you cannot even go out gor a walk at night. The entire place smells like of horses dunk. Nothing much to do here, if you are in turkey for quite a lot of number of days tgen just come here for a day tour or maximum for one night!!!just a waste of money, no restaurants to eat out at, i am eating at my hotels restsurant!!
And you can easily get a bus (prefereably metro)from istanbul to bolu, and then from bolu to abant a taxi would cost 70 Tl.
In short i wouldnt really suggest anyone to come here and waste their time by staying inside the hotel, go to a place where there are activities!!!

I have stayed at Boyuyuk Abant Hotel located in this natural park, with my sister in Mid November 2020. The place is so beautiful especially in Autumn and worth visiting but it gets extremely cold as well (sometimes down to 4 or 3 c in the evening!) and u get to see the autumn foil of the forrests with magnificent color variations!

Magnificent lake with a beautiful landscape. The walking trail around the lake takes about 2 hours (7 km) of a nice walk with three or four restaurants and cafes. You can take a horse ride around the lake.

In simple words ... I love this place! Whilst it tends to get very busy at weekends, with families spilling over themselves in the various well-equipped picnic areas around the lake, I prefer to go on the quieter weekdays when it's more peaceful and tranquil.
The lake and its surrounds are beautifully unspoilt; it's a great opportunity to walk and blow off the cobwebs whist enjoying the scenery and nature; there are areas to play and to explore; or take a ride in a horse-drawn carriage, ride on a rental-bicycle, eat at one of the waterside cafes and restaurants, or head directly to the selection of local craft and souvenir shops. There's endless possibilities to enjoy a magical day out in nature, and I shall return again and again.

We went in early October and it was beautiful weather and also all the colors were showing. There are plenty of things to do around the lake, horse riding , horse carriage rides , bike rentals and many beautiful picnic spots around the lakes. The kids had a good time collecting leaves and looking at many beautiful wild flowers along the lake. Would recommend a relaxing weekend stay. We stayed at the hotel Abant palace which was right opposite to the lake, the rooms are clean but basic and much expensive than what it would cost in other parts of the world. But the location is unbeatable.

Yarın için Ankaradan gitmeyi planlıyorum. Pandemiden dolayı abant ve gölcük tabiat parkı kapalı mıdır acaba?

bolu merkezde bir gece konaklayıp, bir gün gölcük parkı diğer gün abant parkını gezmeyi düşünüyorum. Arabamız yok. Bolu merkezden abant milli parkına ve park dan bolu merkeze hangi saatler arasında ulaşım aracı var? Haftaiçin gideceğim. Bu nedenle haftaiçi saatleri benim için önemli. Bu ulaşım ağı için bir site var mı veya saatleri nereden ulaşabilirim? Ayrıca kışın karlı havada mı güzel olur yoksa nisan sonuna doğru ilk baharda mı gitmek daha iyi olur? yardımlarınız için teşekkür ederim.

Her iki mevsim de ayrı güzel tabi ancak ulaşım araçları konusunda bilgi sahibi değilim.

Kamp imkanı var mı elektrik çekebiliyor muyuz çadıra yakın bir yere
Written September 8, 2018
Otellerin karşı tarafında kamp alanları bulunmakta. Bu alanlarda wc. çeşme vb. tesisler de var. Çadır kurulup mangal yakılabiliyor. Göl de balık da tutulabiliyor. Ama çadırlara elektirik alındığını zannetmiyorum.

Merhaba, Büyük abant otelde kalmak istiyoruz. Otelden çıkıp yürüyerek Abant göl çevresini dolaşabilir miyiz? Yürüyüş yaparken mola verebileceğimiz cafe, restorant gibi mekanlar var mı? Teşekkür ederim.
Written January 6, 2018
Otelden çıkıp yürüyerek Abant göl çevresini dolaşabilirsiniz, bisiklet, fayton kiralayabilirsiniz. Yürüyüş parkuru var, bütün göl çevresinde yürüyebilirsiniz. Biraz uzun sürüyor ama değer :)
Harika bir havası var, manzarası ve doğası ile insanın içine huzur geliyor.
