Ege Palas Business Hotel

I stayed at Ege Palas Business Hotel in Izmir and it was an absolute disaster from start to finish. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, especially if you value your time, comfort, and sanity. 1. Unstable Internet: First of all, the internet here is beyond frustrating. It constantly disconnects, and when it does work, it's painfully slow. I couldn't even send an email without having to wait for ages, let alone get any actual work done. It's a business hotel, but the Wi-Fi situation is an absolute joke. 2. Stinky Rooms: The room smelled like an ashtray. Even though I specifically requested a non-smoking room, it was clear that smoking is still happening indoors here. The stench of stale cigarette smoke was unbearable, and it lingered throughout my stay. I tried to air out the room, but it didn’t help at all. Definitely not the clean and fresh environment you expect from a "business hotel." 3. Slow Elevator: The elevator is another issue. It takes forever to arrive, and when it does, it feels like it’s about to break down at any moment. I ended up walking up and down the stairs because the elevator was so unreliable and sluggish. It’s not a good look for a place that claims to cater to business travelers. 4. Subpar Food: And don’t even get me started on the food. The breakfast is nothing more than a sad buffet of tasteless, low-quality options. I barely found anything edible, and what I did was underwhelming at best. If you’re hoping for a decent meal, you’re better off looking elsewhere. In summary, I can’t believe I wasted my time and money here. Ege Palas is in desperate need of an overhaul—better internet, cleaner rooms, faster elevators, and food that doesn’t feel like it was thrown together as an afterthought. Stay away!

I stayed there for a couple of days for a conference. It s a nice but medium hotel that needs renovation. The room was clean and spacious, the view was very nice even from rather low floor. The furnitures are somewhat old. The bathroom was not in perfect condition I could day that it was clear that there is not improvement for many years now. The elevators very dirty esepcially the windows outside, this is not nice at all. The hotel say that it is a bussines hotel but the wifi was terrible, certainly not for business. Some people in the reception could not help in English and this is embarashing. Og coyrse ther are also people that tried to hard to understand and help, sory for not being able to mention by name here, Breakfast was ok, nothing special however. the location however is very nice, close to the coast and the busy pedestrian road with all restaurants. Friday and Saturday evening is perhaps a little noisy. Overall, I had nice stay but I feel that the hotel provides less than expected or advertised and as such I grade it as average.

I stayed for two nights in July 2022. My room was on the 18th floor and had a sea view. I was blown away and it was so nice to be able to watch the sunset, people, and the buzz of the night life from the spacious and comfortable balcony. The ac was strong, room was clean, bed was comfortable, tv had a lot of channels, and the rooftop lounge was a bonus. I had a quiet stay; I never heard my neighbors. The staff were amazing. I ordered room service twice and the food was really good. The hotel is located within walking distance of many sites, shops, and restaurants. I had a two-minute walk to the water, where many would gather to socialize and take in the beauty of the city and sea. When it was time for me to go to the airport, the staff called a taxi, which arrived in a minute. I will definitely book here and stay again.
