Horrible experience! My room was overall terrible and outdated and to add to that it was literally as hot at a sauna. When I asked the staff about AC they replied that it’s winter and they turn off the AC which lead to an unbearable temperature in my room I actually couldn’t sleep at all. I booked the place for 3 days and after the first night I asked to cut the stay short and to refund me the other two days the they refused. Not only did they refuse but they refused with extreme attitude and rudeness. This place is horrible STAY AWAY.

Overall the area was prime, everything was walking distance, safe area. The front manager was very nice. Although there was no iron in the room, it always had to be requested. Also, cars are usually not allowed to come in front of the hotel because of construction but overall it’s a good hotel to stay in, especially because of the area and everything is walking distance. You have to walk 5-10 minutes to get a taxi, but the hotel can also arrange one. One of the best things they had was the weight machine that you can weight your luggage. Breakfast was very good.

Wow location wise.. Close to the tram line that can take you to most tourist areas. Opposite grand bazaar Yes the hotel isnt 5star but it ticked the boxes. Clean and functional Breakfast is turkish style but its got the basics. I would recommend this hotel for a holiday in istanbul.

Disliked: Cleanliness
it stank on the first day we checked in and one of the staff members ‘cleaned’ it ( sprayed perfume) and the smell got worse each day to the point we were almost vomiting - we told the staff everyday. on the third night we told a different staff member and he blamed us for the smell although it was from the gutter & there when we opened the door for the first time … very rude and refused to do anything about it or accept that it’s from their drains - until we made him come to the room and he finally accepted it

Service Disappointing
Room was dirty. I requested that room be cleaned out properly because there was dirt and dust visible. When i returned it was still not cleaned out. Staff were extremely rude to me. Especially the manager at the front desk who worked morning shifts. They gave me incorrect room when i arrived and insisted its not their fault. After contacting hotels.com they changed room but they were arrogant and rude about it. Very disappointing. Only good thing is location of hotel.

Pros: good distance from grand bazaar, blue mosque, etc. Cons: firstly the staff are not very helpful they don’t speak in a professional manner I found myself repeating a lot of things just to get a conversation or my question answered . Secondly,the breakfast is not as they make it out, there is not a variety of selection for breakfast no tea or coffee either, only Turkish teas and coffees available. Thirdly: there are still works going on in the hotel which is not mentioned when booking so there is a lot of disturbance with hammering noises early in the morning. Fourthly: it took 2 whole days for someone to come and fix the shower in our room we booked a superior room which was newly furnished which was lovely but it would’ve been nice to have things in working order. Fifthly: room service was not up to standard, on arrival we didn’t have kettles hangers in cupboards, cupboards were dirty so coats got dusty, once the kettle did arrive cups were left dirty everyday not changed over or rinsed, although we asked them to make our room up in the 6 nights that we were there the bedsheets and covers were not changed. Room service did not even supply or put toilet paper when it had run out calls had to be made and we had to wait a few hours just for toilet paper. Overalll would I go to Istanbul again? Yes Would I visit this hotel again? No...i suggest they improve greatly as the picture that they have displayed is very deceiving.

Location is great beside the metro station, grand bazar and in center of old city. Staff not so welcoming. Rooms relatively small for a 4 star hotel. There was renovation in the hotel at the time of our stay so noises were terrible during the day. Dryer wasnt working well and we couldn’t use the safe also it wasn’t working fine.
