“I stayed at JW Marriott Ankara which I found to be a proper luxury hotel on par with the brand and I can recommend it.As Marriott Ambassador Elite guest, I was proactively upgraded to a junior suite a day before arrival.The living room was not completely distinct from the bedroom; there were two TVs in the room, one facing the bed and one facing the sofa so it provided some separation but otherwise the room was open.Overall everything was in good condition but the style was a bit aging.The bathroom seemed to have been renovated more recently, it was very spacious and looked more modern so it was the strong point of the room in my opinion.That said, the water temperature in the shower was not always stable and the soundproofing in the room could have been better, I could easily hear noise from the hallway.The executive lounge only opened at 3:30pm daily which prevented guests from having a different place to work during the day besides their own room.As far as I am concerned, the value of a lounge is not simply happy hour but it’s about more personal service than from reception downstairs, so it was partially missing.Because of the late opening of the lounge, breakfast was only in the restaurant (6:30-11am) where the spread was nice, food quality was good, and they had a daily rotation of some hot dishes to provide variety.Back to the lounge, the venue on the 22nd floor was attractive and had several sections, some more suitable for dining and others more suitable for lounging.Hors d’oeuvres were offered 5:30-7:30pm and alcoholic beverages 5:30pm-midnight.Unfortunately there were no cocktails but the food was good quality and enough to make it a meal with a daily rotation (similar to what they did for breakfast), including some regional specialties such as a dish from Uzbekistan one evening which I thought was interesting.Service from the duty manager, the guest relations manager, and other staff in the business center was excellent especially since I had several special requests during my stay. A manager even offered his mobile phone number and I could call him if I needed someone to translate should I run into problems (which I did).He was not even on his work shift at the time I called but he was happy to help which I appreciated.The one aspect which was not as impressive service-wise was in the restaurant during breakfast.The attendants at the entrance do not lead guests to a table, guests just sat where they wanted so the consequence was that there was no server assigned.On several mornings I just sat there for over 10 minutes without anybody coming to ask me if I wanted a drink which was odd given the large number of staff available.They just saw a guest without food or drinks but just walked by repeatedly.Overall JWM Ankara is a solid business hotel and for 15,000 Marriott points per night it was great value.That said, I noted that hotel standards in Ankara are not as high as they are in Istanbul, but in fairness they do not cater to tourists and there is less hotel competition in Ankara so it’s a fact of life that must be accepted. As far as I know, JWM is one of the top luxury hotels in the city even if including hotels from other chains.”
