Άνετο και προσιτό ξενοδοχείο St945 Palas στο Alsancak, Σμύρνη

Advantages: Tottally recommended! The place was nice, the staff was really helpful and always there! The hotel rooms and bathroom was clean.

The neighbourhood is pretty close to a metro station and close to the city center even on foot 15/20 min. The neighbourhood may seem little bit "sketchy" at first but do not be intimidated, even tho it's pretty diverse with Turks, Arabs, Africans, all of them are nice, just be careful on the narrow roads since the drivers arent paying much attention to the rules.

Definitely try the local food shops and restaurants and cafes, which may not look fancy but the food and turkish kahve taste amazing! My recommendations Gaziantepli Orhan Baba which makes amazing meals and local soups known as corba. And also down the road a small coffee/tee house named Mardin Cay Evi, with traditional old style stools and tables, they make amazing turkish kahve and the prices are incredibly cheap!

Advantages: The location of the accommodation is in the old street area, which is not easy to find, especially by car, but the people I met were very enthusiastic, and even rode motorcycles to lead the way, which touched us very much.The free parking lot is a little distance away from the residence, and walking over is just to experience the most authentic local life scene.

Advantages: We stayed at the St945 Palas Otel on the way, for a couple of nights. The hotel building is in good condition and is located close to the main attractions. The embankment is also within walking distance. It's compact and stylish inside. The rooms are clean and equipped with everything you need. High-quality cleaning, on demand. Comfortable sleeping places (pillows and mattresses)- we had a great night's sleep after the trip. The bed linen and towels are snow-white, new.
The staff is very helpful and attentive, they work conscientiously. They helped us with any questions.
It is possible to add a delicious breakfast to the reservation.
There was plenty of welcome drinking water and tea accessories in the room.
There is a street grocery store with a card payment not far from the hotel.
In general, in my opinion, this hotel may be better than some three-star establishments in Izmir.
Thanks to the hotel team. We were comfortable here. Disadvantages: It is worth noting that the hotel is located in the old town. The area is very crowded, and in the late evening it may seem strange or even dangerous for solo tourists. If you're alone or with a group and you're vigilant, it's okay.
We didn't have any negative impressions.
There is not enough space in the bathroom in a double room. The shower area is separated by a partition, but not completely isolated, which can make the room very damp.
There are not enough hangers for large towels.
It didn't bother us much, but it would have been more convenient with them.

Advantages: Great location, walking distance to visit the sites. Mixing with the locals, trying the food. Clean, comfortable, nice decor. Friendly, professional staff. Close to train station to airport.

Advantages: The help from the staff was great. Carrying suitcases up. Offered tea. Breakfast was very good and plentiful.The room was big, you could make tea. We could stay in the room longer than 12 o'clock on the day of departure Disadvantages: The noise of the street with the window open.

Advantages: Clean, nice, and stylish hotel. The staff was friendly, showed us around. It is very close to Basmane Station so it was very convenient for our plans.

Advantages: Clean hotel and well equipped and large room. Despite the lively area during the day, very quiet at night.
A 10-minute walk from the train station (direct line to Izmir Menderes airport). Disadvantages: Not very well frequented area

Advantages: A simple, budget-friendly hotel where I always felt very safe. The rooms were large and comfortable, with air conditioning. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and they even kept my backpack for a few days while I travelled to other cities.

Some reviews mention that the area is dangerous, but I didn't find that at all. It's a working-class neighbourhood full of local markets, which makes it ideal for picking up food and drinks close to the hotel. It's also very close to the train station, which is a big plus if you're planning day trips or onward travel.

Great value for money. I'd happily stay here again.

Advantages: The staff is very friendly, courteous and helpful. The room was great and the breakfast was prepared with a lot of love. Disadvantages: The surroundings take a little getting used to when you are traveling alone as a woman at night, but you are quickly in the city and at the harbor, where many people are still traveling at a later time.

Advantages: The kindness and availability of the entire hotel team: hureye; baris; Malik and I certainly forgot about it. The proximity of shops and restaurants at any time of the day or night. The cleanliness of the premises and the large space of the room. And above all the place is very peaceful day and night and the best value for money on Izmir not to be overlooked as well. Disadvantages: Nothing.

Advantages: The location is quite central, with plenty of restaurants and markets within walking distance. Our room was neat and spotless. The staff really made the stay: Selçuk at reception was a great guy, friendly and very helpful with anything we asked about. Halit on the night shift went out of his way to accommodate a special request we made, which we really appreciated. The hotel is a pleasant surprise: it feels like a polished, well-kept oasis that stands out from its surroundings. Disadvantages: The surrounding neighborhood looks a bit sketchy. That said, we never had any problems during our 2-day stay, but it's worth knowing before you arrive.

Advantages: A spacious, clean and quiet room, with modern bathroom and good shower. Air conditioning worked well (if a little noisy). Staff were very helpful when our arrival was delayed and the hotel seemed well run and good value. Location was very good, a few minutes' walk from the railway station, close to the Agora and in the old part of town. Other reviewers seemed to worry about the area, but we saw no sign at all of any problems: it was quiet and very pleasantly old-fashioned. Some of the other buildings were run-down, but the neighbourhood seemed friendly. Disadvantages: There was a comfortable chair and table, but a second chair in the room would have been welcome.

Advantages: It was very sweet Disadvantages: Location. I left after one night as I felt unsafe in the area. Nothing bad happened to me, but I felt very unsafe and at risk.

Advantages: The staff, the cleanliness, the location, the room was for three and the truth is that very spacious.
I would definitely repeat.
Thank you for making our stay a good one.

Advantages: O hotel fica em um lugar perto de feiras e praça com bastante gente humilde, porém, não há perigo algum. Perto de muitos lugares turísticos.
Os funcionários são muito prestativos e educados. Disadvantages: O frigobar não estava funcionando.
