The experience here was very unpleasant. This place needs DEEP cleaning especially for the price and supposedly being a “luxury” hotel it was incredibly dirty. The bathrooms are moldy and they clean your used coffee cops in the bathroom sink by just rinsing it in water. so your drinking back wash of the last person who stayed. It gives motel vibes while being super expensive. Staff is also extremely RUDE. I called into room service twice to ask for meals and was met with so much rudeness they what to rush you off the phone and was sent it raw burger and gross breakfast. I also tried for one day their open breakfast and wasn’t attended at all, I had to ASK staff for coffee or refills on coffee while others were given it without asking and attended on refills without asking. Next was an issue with the lobby pastry. I was in the lobby and said this pastry can’t be bad it’s very pretty and looks good. I ordered coffee and a chocolate cake. The cake was frozen solid and cold… They tried to sell me old cake. I let them know it was completely solid even showed them how I can’t cut through it. Asked if they had anything not old and soft the waiter took my cake and brought it back, it was piping hot, soggy, and melted!!! I asked DID YOU MICROWAVE THIS??? unashamed he said Yes. I told him absolutely not and to take it off my bill and I didn’t want any pastry. Also one time when walking back into the hotel I was asked if I’m staying there?? I’m walking in so obviously I am they didn’t ask anyone else this question. Very unpleasant stay would never go again. Spa was dirty as well, and pool beds were old. For the price you should be getting a very clean luxurious stay. I ended up going to Pagos Rooftop Bar for food often I wish I would’ve stayed at the Marriott Izmir. It was sooo clean and modernized and the staff was lovely. If you stay in Izmir avoid this place and stay at the the Marriott Izmir, same price for actual Quality.

Swissotel Büyük Efes Izmir is an excellent choice if you want a stylish, comfortable and luxurious stay in the city. We spent 4 nights here on vacation and enjoyed every moment. The staff were warm, friendly and always willing to help, which made us feel very welcome. Breakfast was one of the highlights of our stay, offering an impressive variety of fresh and high-quality options, far more than we expected from a buffet. Our room was cozy, well-designed and very comfortable, perfect for relaxing after exploring Izmir. The location is hard to beat, right by the waterfront and close to many attractions. The restaurant on the 9th floor has beautiful views of the waterfront area, a great spot to enjoy a meal or drink. Overall, this hotel combines comfort, service and location perfectly. We would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Izmir.
