The City Hotel

The location of the hotel with respect to nearby tram station was good. The hotel provided free water in the rooms, which helped especially when we arrived back from trips.

First thing we noticed when we arrived was the lifts were small quite smelly. This odd smell was also present in the room. We actually had to buy air freshner to be able to stay in the room. The room was dirty with spiders around the window and staff did not vacuum the room. The room was very small with practically no places to hang clothing. The other problem was the view from our room - all we could see was shabby flats with people gazing at us (not very assuring). The breakfast was very basic for a 4 star hotel (which they claim, though i would day more of a 3 star). In fact, the juice at breakfast tasted like powder mixed with water. fresh juice was at a price (5 turkish lira) which is a rip off. Even a local map was at a cost.

Hotel in good location, Poor Breakfast, staff very helpful, surrounding area not great for the price

Mainly the Buffet breakfast, little more effort and can be made better, all five days exactly the same food

Being in the heart of the city overlooking the old port with scenic views from the hotel resturant.

The location is not very pretty - in the car parts district of the city.
