Best Luxury Hotels in Side

By the Travreel editorial team · Updated September 2026

Side's luxury quarter is Sorgun: a pine forest a few minutes east of the ruins where the serious five-stars hide from the promenade crowds. Of 77 upscale properties around town, the best share a signature restraint — this is the coast's quiet-luxury address, not its show-off strip.

The Barut family effectively owns the top of the scores: TUI Blue Barut Andız (9.5/10, adults-only), design-led Barut GOIA (9.2, ten guest videos) and Barut Hemera (9.2 across 900+ reviews). Trendy Verbena Beach (9.3) crashes the party from the family side. Nearly all run all-inclusive boards — the full wristband field ranks them together — and Side vs Alanya frames the regional choice.
