The room has a terrace that you can witness the hot air balloon flying every morning! Very near public transportation terminals. Location is very near the cotton castle entrance and hireapolis! Friendly hotel staffs. They are serving yummy Turkish breakfast everyday.
I was happy with my stay. The hotel is in a very central location, most of the hotels they list here are far away from city center which is not Konak but actually Alsancak. The room was clean and the breakfast was good. Staff were smiling and helpful. I recommend this hotel.

Breakfast was a mess- people smoking everywhere and food was not replaced. The place to eat breakfast looked dirty and disorganized. Other than that, it was a good hotel, the beds were very comfortable and the location was centralized.
The staff was very helpful especıally Mr Tolga. They were professional, friendly, and always ready. My room was clean and breakfast was good. I recommend the hotel.
Stayed here for a few nights while Izmir for work. The room was clean and tidy. Breakfast had many to choose from. The location is perfect and veryy convenient, Kordon is just a short walk away and kibris sehitleri street is next to you. good choice, good value hotel.
No complaints, no surprize just pleasant stay. Izmir is now on my list, and this hotel is reason why. Nice clean room, nice staff especially MR TOLGA he is very helpful in everything. Location is very good, within an hour of checking in I was walking along the Kordon with a cup of tea watching the sunset over the bay. Come to sunny Izmir come to this hotel, I recommend
I've stayed in quite a few hotels in İzmir and Istanbul... Riva Alsancak stands out. The room was super clean — no complaints whatsoever. But what really won me over was the location; you're right in the middle of Alsancak, one of the most vibrant parts of the city. Perfect base for exploring İzmir. Would 100% stay again.

Nice hotel in good Izmir location
Very nice hotel in good location in Izmir, friendly and helpful staff
Stayed at Riva Hotel Alsancak for a work trip and it ticked every box. The room was clean, quiet, and well-organized, exactly what you need after a long day of meetings. Staff were professional and friendly throughout, always happy to help without any fuss.
Parking was a welcome bonus because I could find in front of the hotel and next day they helped me to find — which is rare in central Alsancak. The hotel has a solid business-friendly setup overall. Efficient, comfortable, and well-located. Would confidently recommend to business travelers.

Rooms were very clean but there wasn't a laundry room as described in the ad. There is a parking but you have to pay which is not in the description. The room didn't look like in the pictures. The microwave didn't have the rotation plate and their was no skillet in the equipment. We had to ask for one. The breakfast was varied and good but don't go at the last minute or nothing is left. Let's just say we were disappointed and let down by the description.

Right in the heart of İzmir. We walked everywhere. It’s a fantastic location! The staff was attentive, and the check-in process was quick. The price offers great value. If the cleanliness were a bit more thorough, it would deserve 10 stars!

A huge thank you to Sinan for his exceptional welcome! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a warm smile and kindness that immediately put us at ease. Always available and helpful, he responded to all our requests with efficiency and kindness. His professionalism and sense of service truly made our stay more enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel, largely thanks to the quality of the hospitality.

We stayed in the Family Suite. It was very spacious and well fitted out. Cleaning and towel change daily with water supplied daily too. Within 5 minutes walk to main street with numerous restaurants, bars and shops. Within 10 minutes walk to seafront and ferry terminal. Although close to all amenities it is set in a quiet back street so noise is minimal. Staff were very freindly and helpful. If you are a smoker there is an allocated smoking area between the reception and the restaurant. We were room only but breakfast is available if you wish which looked very good. Would fully recommend a stay here and will definitely be returning.

Checkin was seamless. The bathroom had not been cleaned. The floors and table top were also gross. We called and they sent a housekeeper to clean the bathroom, yet when we returned, it was still not to simple standards (hair on counter, stuff towards the back wall of the shower, etc). The location is amazing, though…. No view, but quick walk to ferry, food, shopping, etc.

The quality of this hotel is beyond what the reviews say! Ozan at the front desk was very friendly and helpful! He got us a taxi and suggested places to go and how to get there. The location is phenomenal! It is walking distance to everything. It is a 2 minute walk to Migros (supermarket) , 2 minutes from cafe's and restaurants, and 3 minutes from the beautiful pier. The room itself was very clean and spacious. I got the King bed Jr. Suite and it was so nice to have a full kitchen to cook meals in and the window seals are awesome for hanging out with coffee. You can spot so many cute kitties outside! Also on Sundays the farmers market sets up right in front of the hotel which is a wonderful experience. There's also an art museum that is a 4 minute walk that's worth experiencing. Overall best hotel I stayed at and I tried 4 different hotels on this trip. Best one in Izmir! I'd go back again!

Hotel was non smoking, though I found ashes from cigarettes in the sink. The bathroom sink was flooding and unusable. The electricity was frequently out because of construction being done on the building. The cleaning people only came after much insisting with the front desk. The night time receptionist didn't speak English very well, and made it difficult to check out. The elevator worked inconsistently and sometimes required a multi flight walk up. Wifi Internet was unavailable for part of my stay. The location is great and the room had a kitchen. The main manager seemed very smart and seemed to be holding together a lot of moving parts. He was very helpful when he was available, and made the stay bearable.

A little disappointed, but not a bad hotel
Overall, the hotel was fine. No big complaints, just a few minor things that were a little inconvenient. Check in was 2pm, when I arrived at 4pm the room wasn't ready. Only had to wait 15 minutes. The shower and sink didn't drain that well. The bed had 1 sheet covering the mattress and 1 blanket on top, no second sheet to cover me. This must be a Turkish or İzmir thing because it was the same at my next hotel. However, the blanket was too short and didn't cover my feet. Room was very clean and staff was great though.

This was definitely the worst experience I've ever had in a hotel. The staff was round. The receptionist was the worst of all. The highlight was when he called me at eleven thirty at night to tell me to go down to the reception to pay him. I can't describe to you in a few words what the man was telling me and in general how many tragedies I saw in this hotel. The room was quite dirty, forgotten hairs and soaps from the previous tenants and of course the room was never cleaned on the second day. And the breakfast was very very very poor, however the person who was there was very kind, he may have been the only one in the hotel.
I would not recommend…we booked a room on the 4th floor. When we got there, they told us elevator works only untill 3rd floor and we will need to use stairs to get to the 4th (luggage was super heavy) so we asked to change our room to another floor.
Hotel itself is in construction??
