I chose it because it’s a Swiss brand, expecting Swiss quality. But unfortunately it’s a big let down.
1 location: its far away from major attractions. The biggest problem is it’s on a major artery with heavy traffic. Implication: taxi drivers refuse to go its direction or would charge you 3-3x the usual fare. Eg. From holiday inn Old city to this Mövenpick it costed 600 lira = 20$. To give you an idea; from the airport to old city a journey of 67 km my fare was 900 = 30 $. Forget about public transit because you can’t have any information about the time schedule or where it goes as a tourist.
2. One of the reasons I chose Swiss Brand is for cleanness. Alas, I found rampant mold in the shower room.( see photos) in both the rooms I stayed. The room was a small definitely not the size they claim to be 20 m: 14 m² tops.(see photos for yourself.) there was no gym, no swimming pool, the kind of perks that you ‘s expect from a five-star hotel.
3. The property is right on a major heavy traffic street so the noise is a major issue. If you’re on the lower floor you won’t be able to sleep well.
Overall, it is an OK hotel but definitely not worth the number of the stars it claims.
I have stayed in many more than peak hotels this one is definitely not among the better ones.
