Abstract:

It is understood that tourism is a great power in economy and international relations. However, tourism is a service sector that works in close relation to physical environmental conditions Our country, being the focal point for health tourism, eco-tourism and cultural tourism, is one of the country which has the potential for tourism. Deficiencies in physical environmental conditions such as the scarcity of accommodations, the inadequacy of designing interior and exterior places, especially designs that are not appropriate for the elderly and the handicapped mean that the potential is not being effectively exploited. It is essential to provide sufficient physical environmental conditions to achieve a portion of the increase in the population of tourists that is expected due to the statistics and the targets of present tourisim policy. In this study, architectural design principles for interior and exterior parts of hotel accommodations will be examined in detail to provide comfortable conditions for people of 65 plus who represent a significant percentage of the tourist profile expected.
