Park Eceabat Hotel

I suppose what you pay for is what you get. Whilst the location of the Grand Eceabat is wonderful the hotel is in serious need of a makeover or at least a good clean up. Our room could have been much cleaner as there was fluff on the floor, the toilet leaked and the shower/bath recess was not particularly clean. We also did not have hot showers. Due to the eating area of the hotel being used by many bus tours, the area was not always ready and was also quite messy. I'm sure that in its day this was a Grand hotel and could be once more with the right amount of effort and make over. The Wifi was very poor unless you sat in the hallway under the router. I recommend however, staying in Eceabat instead of Canakkale as closeness to Gallipoli Peninsular is better. I would stay at this hotel again despite its condition but I sincerely hope work is done on it to make it the once Grand place it was.

Situated directly opposite the Canakkale ferry terminal, the Grand Eceabat is more Eceabat than grand. It needs a complete renovation. Poor shower facilities and poor carpet. The reception desk relied on another person to interpret. That's ok in another country, but I would have thought some consideration for nonTurkish guests would have been considered. The internet is poor and generally only worked sitting in the corridor. Overall, a cheap price for a cheap facility. If I was to revisit, I would look elsewhere, but if forced to stay there, would not necessarily mind.

We thought this would be the best place to stay as it is close to Anzac Cove. Unfortunately the hotel needs major renovations. Our bed was completely broken in the middle, carpet stained and dirty. The breakfast was very average. Got the impression no one cared. Only good thing was Garvin of Battlefield Tours has his office there. He arrange for our fantastic guide, Hasan to take us around Gallipoli.
