Exceptional Hospitality & A Wonderful Stay at Demiray Hotel Our stay at Demiray Hotel was truly special, thanks in large part to the incredibly helpful and genuinely caring staff. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that their priority was ensuring guests felt comfortable, valued, and well looked after. Their warmth and attention to detail made such a difference, and it’s refreshing to experience hospitality that comes from the heart. The hotel also boasts a beautiful rooftop restaurant and breakfast area with lovely views, making mornings even more enjoyable. It’s a wonderful place to relax, take in the scenery, and start the day. A huge thank you to the entire team at Demiray Hotel! Your kindness, thoughtfulness, and commitment to creating a great guest experience truly stand out. You made our stay memorable, and we’re incredibly grateful. ❤️

Rooms are very small and there’s no view from the window. Even the rooms for 3 people are small too. The location is really close the main interesting area but it’s very hard to order taxi via the app due to the up height and closed roads. The breakfast menu is very good and spa service is good too. Reception facilities are very small but the staff are very good.

Doesn’t like much outside but you step inside to the most beautiful lobby and helpful staff. A porter to help with luggage. Connecting Family Rooms - great. Bathroom sink a little small but sufficient. Room size was ok. Restaurant food and views amazing!!! On top of a hill. Kinda hard to get too even by car. Most major attractions are walking distance about 10 minutes. Pool - sucks - too deep for non-swimmers. There’s no shallow to deep end. It’s all one level and you need a swimming cap to use pool. The Spa area is nice and clean and quiet.

My wife and I spent several days here. I like to start out with the good stuff. The location, in old town is great. Walking distance to everything. The hotel. To start, its not a 5 star hotel in any stretch of the imagination. Maybe 3 star at best. Rooms are tiny, nothing fancy here.. No space for any of your personal items in the bathroom on the vanity in the deluxe rooms. switched to a family room (2 beds) and it had much more room.. or as much as you were going to get at this hotel. The rooms were clean. The breakfast was just OK. Nothing special, cold creamy eggs, no sausage, bacon, etc. YES the view is nice! So, in the end, set your expectations down to a 3 star hotel, with some of the smallest rooms you've ever stayed in, and you will be just fine!

This hotel has potential, but our experience fell short in several important ways. The location is extremely difficult for taxis, and none were willing to pick us up or drop us off. The staff didn’t provide much assistance and seemed frustrated when trying to help, leaving us to carry heavy luggage up stairs and through crowded streets. The buffet offers plenty of options, but hygiene needs serious improvement. Flies were present around the food, and guests were mixing utensils between dishes. Drink machines were limited and often malfunctioned. The room was clean, and the housekeeping team deserves praise — they were fast, friendly, and kept everything spotless. Unfortunately, the amenities were lacking. Shampoo and conditioner weren’t provided unless requested, and towels and robes had noticeable stains. We also had an issue with our reservation not being honored for an additional night, resulting in a downgrade and a refund process through Expedia. Views from the room were disappointing, facing nearby apartments and shops. The rooftop breakfast area was the only place with a pleasant view. While the neighborhood is convenient for shopping, the overall stay didn’t meet expectations
