OFURO WORLD HOTEL SPA

Super

Everything. It combined modern comfort with authentic Turkish-ness, and the helpfulness/attention to detail that comes with a private, owner-operated hotel. So in terms of comfort: very large, modern, newly fitted and pristine room with extremely comfortable bed, different sizes of pillow and nice bed linen, comfy chair, sliding full length window with outdoor area (I was on ground floor) and full mosquito screen, good supply of lights/lighting and electrical sockets, aircon, tv, fridge, kettle and tea/coffee making facilities; big shower and basin in bathroom, lots of proper towels, underfloor heating or pipes! (Room 108) I also liked the complimentary water machines in the foyer outside my room, that the hotel personnel seemed to be family members (and cared..) and the perfectly lovely and authentically Turkish complimentary breakfast that was served (from 7am, so that I had time to enjoy it before leaving for the airport at 8..), which consisted of: a freshly hard-boiled (hot) egg, two types of cheese, some sliced tomato and cucumber, a generous portion of very good home-produced black and green olives, some sweet slices of orange, home made jam, honey, butter and a big basket of fresh crusty bread, and a traditional curvy glass of black tea. It was the perfect farewell to Turkey!! The location was also very good. I came by train to Gaziemir, which is a sizeable town with all possible facilities. I ended up simply taking a taxi to the hotel from there, which was only 175 TL. My taxi to the airport in the morning was 260 TL in heavy rush-hour traffic and took 15 mins. It was a treat I could afford thanks to the very reasonable price (£40) paid for my night in the excellent Ofuro hotel.

Nothing. There was a bit of noise from other guests arriving later than me with excitable children (I went to bed very early) but that wasn't the fault of the hotel.

Very best airport, easy to find

I only stayed one night to break my long journey Location,, like others said very close to airport, comfortable bed, clean room, balcony with garden seating, Turkish breakfast is cold with bread, cheese, honey, jam and few vegetables which might not be liked by some but I liked it. Staff is accommodating with check out timings as I had very odd check in and check out requirements. Girl at reception is very friendly and helpful.

My main issue was no water due to some issues which was not resolved during my stay. Coming to a hotel after long journey with no water is obviously a big problem. No Internet in the room, I had picked this from other reviews so bought a data only sim at airport. Izmir largest mall Optimum mall is only 10 minutes drive. This is a big mall with food court and many brands which I personally don't like as I look for local authentic markets and stuff and there was none nearby. These malls have really killed the joy of shopping in local traditional vibrant markets as it is same crap which you will find in any country

Este hotel es perfecto para una noche placentera cerca del aeropuerto. Sus camas son muy comodas y su personal muy amable.

Th room was so.spacious. The junior family room had the main bed separated from the other 2 beds by a partial wall. We liked the easy parking, the gym, the fridge in the room, and the comfortable beds. The welcome sign made it easy to find
