Sülüklü Han was built in 1683 by Hanilioğlu Mahmut Çelebi and his sister Atike Hatun. Restored in 2010, the inn is now open to visitors and, like Hasan Paşa Hanı, is among the popular venues of recent years. Inside the inn is an old well. According to historical sources, physicians once extracted leeches from this well for medicinal purposes, hence the name "Sülüklü Han" (Leech Inn).
