Now called TJ's we came across this place on the internet and thought we'd try it, there are only really hostels in Eceabat and we wanted a private bath. This place was perfect, the hotel is basic but clean, comfortable with lovely views over the village. The common areas are really good, especially the rooftop bar/dining room which has 360... more

Gday Ramazan and Tj Ramazan I just wanted to write a quick note to thank you very much, not only for all your help in organising the Galipoli part of our Turkish adventure but for the service you provided during our stay. My Dad and i had a great time in Echabat and Turkey alike! You and your staff were... more

TJ, the owner of this hostel, is a great guy and does good tours of Gallipoli (with his new sidekick Hassan). But unfortunately I didn't think much of the hostel itself. It was very very basic and sheets looked like they hadn't been washed and there was a very strange smell throughout the building (like it had been in a... more

We booked by arrangements made with the hotel prior to leaving Western Australia - and for a VERY reasonable cost, for our family of two adults and two teenagers, we throughly enjoyed a five day holiday in Turkey - two nights in Istanbul and three nights in Eceabat. Airport transfers and hotel accommodation were all made for us by the... more

For what is only a one star hotel, this was a very pleasant 2 night stay. TJ the owner, runs not only the hotel but also does travel bookings. They organised to meet us at the domestic airport in Istanbul when we flew in from Antalya and transfered us to the bus station, put us on the bus for the... more

First I should note that this hotel is not in Canakkale at all, but across the straight in Eceabat. This review is hard because some parts of our stay were excellent and some were pretty bad. The good parts were the staff, the cost, the tours and food. The bad was the smoke filled room and the cleanliness. We called... more

My main objective of coming to Turkey was to experience Gallipoli but didn't have a lot of time to do this. So I was recommended TJs Tours which is run from the Eceabat Hotel in the town of Eceabat. It is on the European side of the Dardanelles so I didn't have to waste time crossing from Cannakale in the... more

I was staying there because the travel agent (Volare Tour in Istanbul) booked me there. They gave me a bunk bed which was not what I booked and the toilet was dirty. Spoke with travel agent and he said that the hotel gave me the wrong room and supposedly to change the room. The manager called with such a rude... more

This is an excellent location from which to visit ANZAC Cove on the Gallipoli Peninsula. We didn't have the time on our visit to stay on the other side of the Dardanelles and we wanted to start our day on the beach at ANZAC Cove at dawn and this location was close by. We had never stayed at a backpackers... more
