Bursa, Turkey Hotel Rooms at the Independent

We were really happy with the overall experience. The facilities were good, hotel was clean, staff was super helpful. Only downside was that we had to wait for 45 minutes to check in although we arrive almost at 3 pm.

Thy told me that the hotel was from the 1930's which I couldn't believe. Then it turns out that the building went through a 2 year innovation. It's a great hotel. We arrived a bit too late and the receptionist gave us an upgrade. We had room service which was great. And cheap when comparing it to Florida hotels. The showerhead was a bit confusing. They have a hamam downstairs which we wanted to go for a private bath but they said it was 350 euros an hour. We were shocked. Everything else is free though. Overall we liked the hotel and would stay there again. Oh and the breakfast is huge!!!! FYI!!! Also expedia apparently did not charge us so they just did the booking. We had to pay at checkout.

the staff was nice and the location was great. a lot of history in this house. used to be a book store / cafe a long time ago.

good hotel to stay in, near to Luna park, good position but you have to walk around 5 minutes for ATM machine

This hotel is awful!! When we checked into our room it smelled as if someone had JUST finished smoking a pack of cigarettes in it. There was ash on the floor and sugar all over the countertop in the room. It appeared as if someone had broken into the room after the maid service and smoked and drank coffee in it. When we asked to switch rooms, they told us they had no other rooms available for the night, so we had to sleep in a dirty room full of smoke. In addition, there was mold all over the bathtub and the carpet was filthy (and looked like it hadn't been changed in 20 years). Outside of room wasn't any better. The hallway was really dark and the motion activated lights didn't work. So at night, you could not see anything in the hallway which made us feel unsafe. This is possibly one of the worst hotels I've ever stayed in; especially for the price we paid! I have stayed in hotels that were a tenth of the cost and were 10 times better! I would NEVER recommend this hotel to anyone again. The only redeeming quality was the man who works the night shift at the front desk, who was nice. But that's it.

It was so bad. The GPS didn't get the location and was hard to get there since it is far away with poor sign to National Park. At the end I didn't find anything to do there and no gas station, but I asked the hotel to get some fuel from Bursa. The internet was poor at morning in the room and I had to set in the loopy for that. They didn't have children channels. The furniture is old and used. However, the food was good, but need diversity of food between lunch and dinner.

Could not stay at that hotel, thanks to Expedia the front desk could not find my reservation , I had 2 spend 2 hours in a strange city with 3 kids trying to find a hotel room
