Money and costs
The currency of Turkey is the Turkish Lira (TRY). ATMs are abundant in cities and even in smaller towns. Withdrawals with credit cards are almost always possible and practical, as are payments, at least in the most modern establishments. None of this is obviously guaranteed in the small towns in the interior of the country.
After the time of the overvalued Turkish Lira, where €1 was worth many millions of lira and prices reflected it, Turkey now has a new lira and the cost of living is somewhat higher, although in general the country remains inexpensive by Western European standards.
ACCOMMODATION
Like most heavily tourist countries, Turkey is endowed with all sorts of solutions, from campsites to some of the most luxurious historic hotels in Europe. On the most attractive coastline of the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas, resorts dedicated to mass tourism abound. The prices of stays at these resorts are substantially lower if booked in advance and online or at agencies and operators in the countries of origin, even more if they are part of more complete packages, with flights and transfers included.
Between the campsites and the luxury hotels, there is a panoply of commercial hotels, hostels, inns and pensions (including B&B) With regard to prices, stays start at around €10 per night for a double room in a hostel Istanbul, at several tens of euros a night at the best hotels and resorts of international chains.
FOOD
With Mediterranean, Arab, Central Asian and Caucasus influences, Turkish cuisine is extremely rich. In the image of your stay, you can find a little of everything, from basic but delicious street meals at a very low cost (2 to 3€) to hyper-luxury meals in the restaurants of the most renowned international hotels and resorts, in the order of several tens of euros .
As in any country, the best strategy to eat well at low prices is to realize which restaurants are frequented by residents of a certain area. The food that is more faithful to tradition and more accessible is most likely to be found in these establishments.
INTERNET
As the ADSL service began to reach more and more homes, hotels, bars, restaurants and others, Internet Cafés were decreasing. As long as you are in a large city or tourist town, you will have no great difficulty in getting Internet access in all types of establishments and even in squares and central or more tourist areas. Even when traveling across the country, you can easily rent a Hotspot which provides signal to various devices, in much of the territory, 3G. The values depend on the tariff you choose, but the Internet in Turkey has very affordable prices.
