Oglakcioglu Park Boutique Hotel

The welcoming staff and the great decor of the reception. I was pleasantly surprised. The room, was reasonable sized and most importantly it was not noisy inside. The bed was so comfortable and they even had their minibar filled with treats. That's the first time in a while I have stayed at a "mid ranged" hotel and the minibar had items in it. But most importantly, most importantly, the staff is awesome. Always willing to help, smiling and welcoming. The Hotel is a stones throw away from the Luna Park and as soon as you step out there are delicious restaurants waiting for you. The hotel breakfast was tasty as well. They even offer different pillow options!

The hotel is in a small road, once you step inside it's like a bizarre time-trip. There's a Mona Lisa in the elevator, egyptian hieroglyphs, greek statues and so on. It's an Orient Express themed pastiche, very funny. The room and bathroom were small but cozy and clean. The location while not glamorous is very convenient: I could explore the historical part of Izmir by feet and the train station is less than 5 minutes away. The staff is very helpful: I had an issue with my luggage after the flight and they handled communication with the airline for me. They also helped me set up a day-trip to Pergamon. Last but not least, the breakfast buffet is amazing. In 3 days I couldn't try all the available options.

Hotel is located on one of the main streets leading to old harbor. Busy and noisy is the down side. Convenience is for sure. It's walking distance to old town bazaar, clock tower and old harbor. We got an upgraded room in the top floor with a small balcony. It's not as roomy but clean and with window closed, we could not hear noise from the busy street. We got a car. Hotel staff helped us with parking and that is very much appreciated as parking and driving on narrow streets and tight spots can be a challenge. Breakfast has lots of choice and adequate to our expectation.

Oglakcioglu park hotel is beautiful! We got the standard double room, and it was spacious enough for 2 people to comfortably stay for a few days. The breakfast is typical Turkish - bread, Turkish donut, lots of jams, cucumbers, variety of cheeses, olives, boiled eggs, sausage, and tea/coffee. It starts at 7am, which was nice on the day of our tour when the company picked us up at 7:30am. The hotel is also about 12-15 minutes walk from the pier, and you can enjoy a wonderful sunset there. The staff were also very courteous and helpful. We rented a car so that we could go to Pamukkale. Keep in mind that the hotel can only accommodate small cars, so don’t rent any large SUVs or vans, unless you can make other arrangements to park your car. We enjoyed our stay at this boutique hotel and will gladly stay here again.

The staff were rally friendly and helpful, organising to park our car using their carpark lift and taking us to our rooms (we were two couples). The rooms were a good size and nicely furnished. The bed was comfortable and the shower was good. The staff recommended somewhere to eat for lunch, which was delicious and good value. We liked the location in the middle of Izmir. The breakfast was a large buffet, with an excellent selection. Overall, we were really happy with this hotel and would definitely stay again.
