The rooms have outdated furniture, and the air conditioning was not working properly. The staff did their best to fix the issue, but unfortunately it was not resolved. The shower had very low water pressure, making it difficult to enjoy a proper shower. Parking was also quite challenging, especially if the valet staff were not available outside. Additionally, their breakfast lacks variety and the quality of the food is comparable to that of two- or three-star hotels at best. Staff were helpful to the maximum.

Charming hotel

This is a charming hotel. We stayed in the suit room as a family, it was spacious and comfortable. We had a plate of fruit left by the hotel manager, which was a lovely touch. Perhaps the hotel is getting a little old at places, but that didn’t bother us. We normally stay at more modern hotels and we really like the old fashioned charm of this hotel. The rooms have balconies with a stunning view of the Anitkabir, the key monument in the city. Central location, easy to get to on the metro.

95% of staff very good, professional, and friendly, especially in restaurant for breakfast, cleaning crews, front door staff, security people, and front desk. There were some businesses in the neighborhood inappropriate for a family oriented hotel, but staff were very supportive about that subject, and hotel existed there way before those other businesses came to neighborhood. I also did not like the fact that management did not let us to leave earlier when our job was done. We had to pay for two weeks of reservation in advance, but when we were finished with our affairs, they did not want to pay back if we left earlier.
Location was very good, just ten minutes walk to the center of everything.
Overall it was not a bad experience.

Disappointing Experience

Unfortunately, our stay at this hotel got off to a poor start. Upon entering our room, we were greeted by dirty mugs with leftover tea and a shower floor littered with hair. To make matters worse, the shampoo and conditioner bottles were half-empty.

Although the front desk promptly sent housekeeping to address the issues, we were disappointed by the lack of apology or concern. When we mentioned the incident during checkout, the response was dismissive, with the staff simply stating, \"We cleaned it.\"

While we appreciate the effort to rectify the situation, the overall experience fell short of our expectations. As a hotel, attention to detail and customer satisfaction are crucial. Hopefully, the management will take our feedback seriously and take necessary steps to improve their services.

Rating: 2/5 Stars - Not Worth the 5-Star Rating

Given its 5-star rating on Expedia, we expected a much higher level of service and cleanliness. Unfortunately, this hotel fell short of our expectations.

Te Hotel is based in a area where everything is in easy reach by walking, taxi, buses. The property is beautifully decorated and very clean. The staff were very nice, friendly and very helpful. The room we had was very comfortable and clean too but there was only one downfall there was a damp smell coming from the bathroom which was very strong at times. We did mention this situation to the staff but we were only staying for the one night and no other rooms were available due to celebrations of Republic Day in Turkey.

My family had a pleasant stay in Ickale hotel. The location is perfect for sightseeing. The personnel is really helpful and understanding. We could leave the car next to the hotel entrance and the personnel was parking it behind the building in the private space. We also got packed breakfast as we left the hotel really early in the morning. Everything was really clean. We also enjoyed the small pool. The only thing which could be improved is bigger diversity of breakfast food, specially for guests staying longer in the hotel.

I love the atmosphere in this place and very beautiful antique style of the hotel . We have experience with other hotels in Ankara because we have to stay for almost 3 weeks for a visa purpose. We decided to extend our stay at this hotel. This hotel is located close to the public transportation. I would highly recommend the Ickale hotel for everyone. The price for what you get is very nice compared to other hotels in the area. I would definitely come back to Ickale Hotel again. Thank you for nice experience!

Overall this is a great hotel for the money you pay. Downside is that most of the rooms face the adjacent block and there is no view. There are no bathrobes in the rooms and the towels are too small after a shower. Also, there are no international channels on cable tv. For a 5 star hotel catering to an international client base, it should be fixed.

I liked this charming, old hotel. Although it is located on a very busy street in a not great neighborhood I was able to rest and enjoy my stay in my roomy, comfortable room. It had little nuances which I liked for instance, the shower has a raised edge which prevents water from going on to the bathroom floor. I especially appreciated that the staff adhered to the Do Not Disturb sign on my door and left me alone for my 2 night stay so I could catch up on my severe lack of sleep. I would have liked to use the spa/pool/tiny gym more but it didn’t open until 11am and closed at 10pm.

Beautiful hotel, 30 years old but designed to look antique. Stunning lobby, amazing service. Definitely would stay here again. Mini bar lacks wine and spirits, but there is a bar, possibly accessed via room service. Breakfast was adequate, but breakfast room is beautiful. Lovely quiet neighborhood, subway within 5 minutes walking distance. Couldn't find a breakfast cafe open by the time I reached the subway entrance, so I looked further afield. Nevertheless, the room was beautiful and comfortable, with great view of Atatürk's mausoleum. Would much rather stay in a hotel with character than something too standard, modern, and expensive. All the hotel staff were amazingly helpful and kind, especially all the bellboys and the front desk staff, including Sarp.
