Ayca L TripAdvisor review

We have been staying in this hotel for a total of 10 times over the last five or six years. This is a hotel we have been coming back to every time. Both the location has been perfect, and the service has always been top. This time something has changed. We noticed it when checking in the first evening. Because we were Accor gold holders at the time of check in we were offered an upgrade to executive room and floor. We accepted this on the condition that this room was like the one we already ordered. Which was confirmed. It turns out that there is no difference between executive rooms and classic rooms, other than that these rooms are on the fifth floor. The only real difference is that you get access to the executive lounge when staying in an executive room. But here is the snag: when you are upgraded, you don’t get access. You only get the room, which is the same as every other room facing the garden. same amenities, same location. same size. So bear in mind that if they offer you an upgrade this is just bogus. You won’t get any upgrades really. It’s like putting you in business class in a flight with economy food. We have been staying here many times, and our stay is always a week or more. Earlier we have been recognized as such, and there has always been a small token of this in the room like cheese, fruits or a bottle of wine. This time - nothing. Furthermore, we have always felt that we are staying in the luxury hotel. But the service this time is just bad. There are a few things they do that. I do not understand, for instance, that they try to get into the room twice a day to service. Should be a note to hang on the door to say that you don’t want to room service without using the do not disturb, but there was no such thing in the room. so we used to do not disturb sign, and every time we did this there was a note written rather aggressively that they didn’t get into the room. The times that they did get in, they didn’t replace water, coffee or anything. We had to call and get those things sent up. Another thing is that we realized that the cleaning staff actually go through our Private stuff, move them around add arrange them as they wish. We actually don’t find this OK. Upon arrival, there was an issue with the water in the shower, merely dripping and not running properly. After a few days, the toilet started running uncontrolled. So we called maintenance to fix both things, turns out what they did was turn off the water to the toilet and didn’t touch the shower. It was quite a surprise to come to the toilet, do your stuff and find that the water has been shut off. Took the maintenance guy about 45 minutes to fix it. We used to think that the spa and work out area was really good. The quality of this hasn’t changed, but a couple of times now we have had happened to us that they give us a locker, and they take note of which locker they give us. While we are in the spa, they empty the locker and lock it. at one time, I actually had it happen that another guest had gotten my locker, and all my belongings included credit cards and phone was taken out and given to the reception. They have no explanation whatsoever why this happened. The staff in reception used to be very helpful and polite, but this time I felt that we were more of a nuisance than actually guests at the luxury hotel. We took it up with the manager on duty, but it was no help. We got a nonsense answer About them taking everything seriously and that was it. By the way, take a look at the complaints on TripAdvisor. Every single one is answered by stamped statement saying that they reg that they didn’t fulfill our wishes and look forward to see us again. The exact same words that we got as response in our email. Finally, a little warning. You may be tempted to help yourself to a small bottle of wine from the minibar in the room. This 0.375 L bottle of red wine local produce will cost you €55, around US$60. The same wine can be bought across the street for 170 Turkish lira , around 4 US$. I think this is the highest minibar price I’ve ever seen. It even beats Oman where it was quite expensive, but not like this. And finally a word to whoever reads this from the hotel: I would really appreciate if you either do not respond or respond with a real answer. If you only want to put a stamped answer like you do on everybody else, then please don’t bother. Anyway, we are not coming back to this hotel. Which is sad, because we normally go to about one or two times every year.

I return to this hotel for every business trip to Izmir. Everything is great, so I cannot single out any one thing. On my most recent trip, having lost my luggage via Turkish Airlines, reception upgraded my room to a suite. A really nice gesture, which will have me returning again on my next visit.
