Stand under tall trees and keep a lookout for hidden creatures. Izmir City Forest is a rich environment for plants and animals.

Izmir City Forest is the perfect place kick off your day in Balcova. This dense growth of trees comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Set aside time for other attractions like Konak Square, İzmir Clock Tower, and Kadifekale to get a complete picture of what's on offer in the area.

One of the best hotels I booked. Excellent and friendly staff. Cozy and clean rooms. Wonderful location with a private beach. The special terrace in each room was wonderful, providing an excellent view on the sea. Great dining options. Had a lovely experience and really like to repeat staying in the near future. Warm thanks to all the wonderful staff members who made this stay unforgettable.

7.4/10 Good! (48 reviews)

I was surprised by the unfortunate presence of so much cigarette smoke in the lobby. It hits you like a wall when you walk in. The management had already turned the air conditioning to winter operation so there was no opportunity to control your own heat/air machine in your room. We like to sleep with a cooler room, and there was no opportunity for that, therefore we slept very poorly. On the positive side, the hotel is located close to the beach, seemed to have a very nice pool, our bed and couch and balcony were comfortable, and we had a beautiful sea view.
