Cheap Trip To Turkey

Where: Yildizevler Mahallesi, 21 Sokak No 2, Cankaya, Ankara, Turkey, TR-06550

For the geographically challenged, the capitol of Turkey is not Istanbul, but Euro-infused Ankara.

Although it has the reputation as a university town and business center, tourism is growing. There might not be a lot to see and do in the city itself, but it's a great base to explore other areas like Anatolia, Cappadocia or the Black Sea coast.

Check into the new Swissotel Ankara, which officially opens on May 1. The 150-room hotel is located near the embassies and the Presidential Palace in Cankaya. No room will be without the basics: an espresso machine, DVD player, printer, and jacuzzi. If it's space you desire, the Swissotel now has the largest suite in the city.

Now, the hotel is offering introductory rates of $99 a night until August 31.
