Our Story

A Dream Kept Alive

Founded in 1996 by Ruhi Özman, Ruhi Palace — known locally as Ada Apart — occupies one of the most extraordinary positions in Amasra: directly on the ancient walls of Kaleiçi, with the Black Sea stretching below.

Today it is run by Ruhi’s family. This is not a hotel; it is a single, spacious apartment for people who want something genuine. History in the stones beneath your feet, silence in the evenings, and a view that changes with every hour of light.

Why Ruhi Palace

History, Nature & the Sea

The flat comfortably sleeps two to four people. Because there is only one, availability is genuinely limited.

One Exclusive Flat

We have only one apartment here, and it is entirely yours for the length of your stay. No shared corridor, no neighbours through the wall.

2,000 Years of History

The Roman bridge, the Byzantine and Genoese walls and the old lighthouse are all a few steps from your front door.

Panoramic Black Sea Views

Every window frames the sea. You wake up to sailing boats and fall asleep to the waves below the wall.

One of the best places in Amasra

Stunning view, over the Roman bridge with the gentle sound of the Black Sea and happy seagulls. The apartment has all the appliances that you might need and is well located.

A very convenient little flat in the center of Amasra. Our host was very kind and flexible. He picked us up and told us where to park. Would certainly recommend it!
