Mükemmel diyemem ama herşey ortalamanın üstüydü. Konumu iyiydi. Otopark küçüktü ama otelin çok dolu olmaması sebebiyle sıkıntı yaşamadık. Kahvaltıda aynı şekilde çok bir beklenti olmadan tercih edilebilir. Bizi en çok memnün eden şey sabah erken saatlerde vardık ve oda temiz ve boş olduğu için öğlenden sonra 14:00 ü bekletmeden odamızı teslim ettiler. Bunun için tekrar çok teşekkürler.

Biz 4 yaşındaki oğlumuzla 1 gece konakladık. Kızılay’ın merkezinde yer almasına rağmen çok sakin bir oteldi. Oda büyüklüğü idealdi. Otopark sorunu yaşamadık. Personel çok güleryüzlü ve yardımseverdi. Hijyen konusunda da çok iyiler tek uyarım yıpranmış/yırtılmış havluları elden çıkarmaları olabilir.

The wifi signal in the room is terrible. Parts have no connection at all. The bathroom stunk of sulphur or sewage even after being cleaned and the smoke detector in the corridor beeped all night and made it difficult to sleep. Bed was good, breakfast was good, shower was good . Great location. I was very disappointed that there was no kettle or coffee in the room for how expensive the hotel was.

Very near to the Kizilay Square and the metro station. Near to a lots of restaurants and cafes. There was no internet in the room and the bathroom door did not close (it looks like the wood has expanded). Although the room was clean, the shower area needs to be renovated, it felt old and dirty. We stayed on the second floor and could smell cigarettes, people was smoking near to our window. Overall was okay for two nights.

What I didn't like: rooms are not carpeted, rooms are on the small side, no stands for the suitcase I kept mine on the floor, no safe, and no bedside lamps.

The hotel was in a great location very near to city centre. Our room was very spacious and clean. It had nearly all the amenities you may need but surprisingly there was no coffee maker in the room. Refrigerator only worked when you were in the room and if you were leaving for a long time everything in refrigerator became warm.

Personel ilgili ve güleryüzluydü. Odamızın kilidinde sorun vardı. Destek istediğimiz ilk personel nezaketten yoksundu. Kapı dışardan açılabiliyordu. Kartta sorun olmadığı konusunda iddalaştı. En sonunda her seferinde personelden yardım istersiniz diyerek bizi çözümsüz bıraktı...(2 ekim 2024 gündüz) Ancak, vardiya değişimi sonrası resepsiyon personeli ilgili davrandı. (2 ekim 2024 akşamı sorun çözülmüştü) İlgili personel kadındı. Hem cinslerime minnettarım. Bize çok yardımcı oldu. Doğru personel ile irtibat kurmanızı diliyorum. Tüm 5 yıldızlı değerlendirmelerimi ilgili, güleryüzlü personele gönderiyorum. Otrlden onların çabasıyla memnun ayrılıyorum.

Excellent hotel - 4*, reception staff speak very good English "and" they are knowledgeable city guides. Superb location, right in the heart of Kizilay Square, walking distance from the Metro, Buses, and thousands of shops, restaurants, night clubs. Taxi to/from airport is around 450 - 550 TRY. 4th floor very quiet with windows closed. Wifi speed is good. Clean room, large size, large bathroom (usual toiletries), large towels, fridge. There is a 24-hour, free, tea/coffee service (order the strong expresso Turkish coffee, and not the weak Nescafe). We took a 2-day trip from Ankara and they looked after our luggage free of cost. We were to move into our rooms early (well before the usual 2pm). They booked our taxis for early morning flights. Central location means its only 50 TRY taxi to the Ataturk Mausoleum and 70 TRY to Ankara Castle. This hotel is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
