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.

Staying at Swissôtel Büyük Efes Izmir was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The hotel combines modern elegance with warm hospitality, making it a perfect choice for both business and leisure. The rooms are spacious, spotless, and beautifully designed with stunning views over the Aegean or the city. The beds are incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep. The breakfast buffet is outstanding – offering a wide variety of fresh, high-quality options, from local specialties to international favorites. The staff deserve special praise – they are genuinely friendly, attentive, and always ready to go the extra mile to make your stay memorable. Every interaction, from check-in to check-out, was professional and welcoming. The hotel’s location is another highlight: right by the seafront and within walking distance to many of Izmir’s attractions, restaurants, and shops. The gardens and outdoor pool area feel like an oasis in the heart of the city, while the spa facilities provide ultimate relaxation. Overall, Swissôtel Büyük Efes Izmir truly exceeds expectations. It’s not just a place to stay, but a place to feel at home while enjoying top-class comfort and service. Highly recommended – I can’t wait to return!

I was given a city view room with a lot of noise even though I specifically stated that I wanted a no noise room. My room had an electric shortage at night when I tried to turn off the lights there was a booming sound and all the electricity in my room was cut off instantly. I waited around 20 minutes at 1:00 am for someone to come and fix this. Some of the reception personnel were very dismissive and cold which is something very surprising.
