No irons in the rooms or in the corridor. Or hand it over to the laundry, or take the iron with you.
аватар HotLine
Yeah.
Type here in the search bar the word "iron" and read.

If on some day there are no questions about an iron or a pot, the day will be unsuccessful (a popular sign of Turpravda).
аватар Kitsune
no, no and NO. There are no irons in Turkish hotels. They write about it all the time. So quickly to the store and .... we get there such a small travel iron. Absolutely amazing and useful item. Firstly, all clothes are ironed, and secondly, it is light and compact, it will not take up much space in a suitcase / bag. And thirdly, this is a huge savings on vacation. And we spend the saved money on fruits.

ironing as well as laundry - a paid service of the hotel
so there are no irons in the rooms (in the corridors too)))

Zlata, don't scare people, now they will refuse the tour.
What is a tour without an iron?

A familiar picture - experts have fun about questions from dummies.
This is clear.
I don't understand anything else. Why are such questions being asked?
As an aged person, I previously believed that these were remnants of the scoop. There were no ironing and washing services in 99% of Soviet hotels, boarding houses and sanatoriums. I leave 1% not because I know what happened somewhere. It's just wrong to say something 100% from personal experience.
In the best hotels, the floor attendant had a set - an iron, an ironing board (not at all the same concept as today), there could also be an electric kettle and even a basin. In ordinary hotels - there was nothing. On the back of the room door, it was written that it was forbidden to use electrical appliances in the room - irons, boilers, kettles. Violators were dealt with harshly.
Now I understand that these questions are no longer relics. Questions are asked by people who have no Soviet experience.
So why do they ask such questions?
Of course, I can sketch several options. But I can't give any preference. Those. from my side it doesn't make sense.
Does anyone have a reasoned opinion on this? Or the questioner will answer.

My opinion: the Soviet experience, maybe not, but the Soviet upbringing lives on and wins :) And it tells us that "our people don't go to the bakery by taxi."
That is, firstly, "Soviet people" do everything themselves, laundresses and maids - this is for the bourgeoisie, and secondly, if the "Soviet people" would like to entrust washing and ironing to professionals of the basin and iron, it still presses toad - he was not used to paying for it. It is better to arrange laundry in the washbasin, dry it on the balcony (many even take clothespins, causing delight of bourgeois foreigners and attendants) and iron on the knee.
Z.Y. True, there are still people who simply cannot afford to pay for laundry and other similar services, in this case, the truth is, a small camping iron will save.
Well, and the latest case - not all hotels have laundry services.

HotLine and Pachok, it's always a pleasure to read you, thank you.
However.
1. "... people who simply cannot afford to pay for laundry and other similar services ..." (c), usually such people do not go to resorts, because the cost of ironing one thing is no more than 0.5% of the cost of the tour, or one and a half cups of tea, well, I don’t know what else to compare with ...
2. But I always take clothespins with me. Without them, as without hands. Until I took it, I repeatedly ran to the rooms below my balcony for a towel or swimming trunks that had flown away (well, you can’t hand over the swimming trunks to the hotel dryer, and they don’t dry in the bathroom, so only a balcony). By the way, when leaving, we always leave clothespins and do not take home)))

With regards to the remnants, that is, I have Japanese acquaintances who often go on business trips, and so, they always carry travel irons with them. I think you understand that the Japanese cannot have a Soviet mentality. And this despite the fact that in many Japanese hotels there are special smoothing presses in the rooms (they smooth out, of course, medium, but still).
The reason why I always take an iron is simple: it should always be at hand. It's comfortable. Stroked at any time. No need to hand over things, then wait a lot of time. I myself can iron and wash when I need it, and not sit and wait.
аватар HotLine
I understand people who take a travel iron with them.
I understand people who do not mind saving on some services.
But I can't imagine ironing in the hallway (see the question). Or a room with irons and basins.
After all, this is a person's idea of ​​u200bu200brest. Hence the problems of ours and with ours on vacation.
Where is it from?

And then the top complaints of our tourists in all ratings include the item -
"Ethnic Discrimination"
аватар yltra
my friends were also going to go to Turkey for the first time and for some reason they asked me in which hotels they distribute irons and whether there is a room (special with washing machines) and were very surprised that there was no such thing ... I imagine a hotel where tourists with basins and irons under the arm stand in line for washing machines))))))))

Yes, tourists really got it with questions about irons, clotheslines, pots and other crap. You eat for a holiday, but do not do housework, otherwise rent a villa, do not purchase a tour with AL! The people, I don’t want to offend anyone, but really recognize our people abroad by their ironed, taken with them with a travel iron, the suit is simpler than a steamed turnip, the rest go around in wrinkled T-shirts and shorts and don’t bother! No, I don’t urge everyone to take an example from foreigners, I am for things made of light, wrinkle-resistant fabrics: prepare everything at home, carefully pack your suitcase, in the hotel hang everything on a coat hanger (they are there in the closet) and relax!

What a discussion about the iron! Just class! I'm trying to remember what I did in the Champion with my things, which are completely "wrinkled". Mint did not go - that's for sure, I would remember. I also don’t remember to iron it, although I have a travel iron. Probably hung on their shoulders in the closet. I unpacked everything and hung it up immediately after settling in the room.
However, I can give advice specifically in relation to the Champion - how can a disadvantage of a hotel be turned into a virtue. "Soviet" citizens remember that in those days useful advice was printed in many publications. For example, how to iron a velvet or wool item, especially with ruffles, folds, etc. - you need to hang it over a basin of hot water. So in the Champion this advice can be applied. If you wash in the bathroom with the door closed, you will get a real steam room, the condensate will flow along the walls. Somehow the ventilation is bad.
I really want to stroke - hang things in the bathroom after taking a shower, then dry them on the balcony. Haven't tried it myself, but it should work.
In general, take as little as possible with you - one pair of shorts and 2-3 T-shirts is enough. The rest will still hang in the closet, you will only drag it in vain. Good luck!
