Sheraton Grand Samsun Hotel
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Sheraton Grand Samsun Hotel is the one to book in Samsun if you want full 5-star facilities, a beachfront address and a short ride to the main sights. Skip it if price matters most, since it costs roughly double our Best Value pick and guests find the restaurant expensive.

This is the pick for travellers who want everything on site. The property lists a beachfront setting, a spa, a pool, a gym, a restaurant, family rooms, free parking, free Wi-Fi and air conditioning. That makes it a reasonable choice for families, couples on a short break and business travellers who want a gym and a reliable breakfast.
Budget travellers should look elsewhere. At about €153 a night it is the most expensive of our three Samsun picks, and the two cheaper options score about the same or higher with guests. If you plan to eat every meal at the hotel, factor in that guests call the restaurant prices high.
Location and getting around Samsun
The address is Liman Mah. Ataturk Bulvari No:55 Ilkadim. Guests rate the location 8.9 out of 10.
The Great Mosque (Samsun) is 2.3 km away, about 29 minutes on foot. Samsun Gazi Museum is 2.8 km, around 35 minutes, and Site Mosque is 3 km, around 38 minutes. These are straight-line estimates, so real routes will take longer. The mosque is a fair walk; for the museum and Site Mosque, a taxi or public transport is the sensible option, especially in November weather.
What guests say
The hotel scores 8.7 out of 10 from 271 guest reviews. Praise centres on the staff, described as friendly, professional and helpful from arrival. Breakfast also stands out: guests describe a large buffet with a wide range of fresh options.
The weak spot is the restaurant. Guests find the dishes tasty but the menu limited and the prices high. If you want more choice for dinner, plan to eat out at least some nights.
Price and how it compares with our other two Samsun picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026, for 2 adults in one room, was €152.91 per night. That is about 79% above the median of the hotels we looked at in Samsun. It is not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates.
For comparison, our Budget pick, Deluxe Beach Residence, came in at €56.20 per night with a score of 8.9 and 4 stars. Our Best Value pick, Pereira Samsun, was €70.79 per night with 8.5 and 3 stars. What the extra money buys here is the 5-star rating, the spa, pool and gym, and a location much closer to the main sights than Pereira's spot in Atakum.
