Reviews and Ratings
I have mixed feelings about this hotel. The rooms are really small, making the price difference between sea view and standard minimal. However, the location is fantastic, close to major attractions and plenty of dining options. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff being friendly while others came off as arrogant. The dining experience was expensive, and the lack of capacity for guests was noticeable, but the facilities were decent.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were great with a brilliant breakfast, but a bit on the small size. Unfortunately, the loud music coming from the bar across the street disturbed our sleep, although we did enjoy a great view from the room.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were very comfortable, clean, and fairly new. The view of Istanbul and the sea from the room was breathtaking. The staff were incredibly kind, helpful, and extremely friendly. The location was superb, right in the city center with easy access to transportation. The dining options were simple but catered to everyone's needs. Overall, a great value for money.
The hotel is in a fantastic location between Taksim Square and Galata Tower. The rooms, though a little small, were clean and comfortable, with a city view room on the ninth floor offering glimpses of the Golden Horn. The dining experience had lots of variety, but with tasteless food and limited options. The location was great for exploring on foot, being close to Taksim Square and a lovely café offering hookah and a nice view. Some facilities were lacking, with a strong glue smell noted, and the need for better cleanliness and space considering the hotel's size.
The hotel rooms are amazing with beautiful big windows that offer stunning views of Istanbul and the sea, making it incredibly comfortable for a lone traveler. However, it may not be as spacious for multiple guests. The service is great, with professional and friendly staff offering a range of convenient amenities. The location is perfect for exploring the old city and Taksim, being close to various attractions and dining options. The dining experience is above average, with fresh and delicious made-to-order dishes. Overall, the hotel offers a great value for the money with some slight drawbacks in room comfort for multiple guests.
The hotel is in a fantastic location with great views across the city, close to everything you need like bars, restaurants, and shopping. The rooms, although a little dated, are spacious and have good bathrooms with nice views. The service is very polite and friendly, but communication could be challenging due to the limited English speakers. The dining options are above average and very diverse. Overall, a fantastic spot for exploring Istanbul.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient, just a short walk to Istiklal Street, but the room cleanliness and interruptions from the cleaning staff were major issues. The rooftop pool was a letdown with limited space and sunbeds. Nevertheless, the service was exceptional and truly made a difference.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with nicely decorated rooms, though a bit small, and great big windows that provided isolation from street noise. The service was good, but some noise disrupted my experience. The location was convenient for shopping and dining, making it easy to explore the city. The dining options were satisfying overall, with delicious food, though some dishes could have been warmer. The facilities were generally good.
The hotel rooms are spacious and clean, but they can get a bit warm as the central AC is turned off during winter. The rooms appear dated and could use some upgrades. The location is bustling and offers views of Istanbul, close to the metro and Pera area. The dining options vary in quality, with a good selection but limited seating. The service staff is kind and helpful, although they couldn't assist with the aircon issue. Overall, the hotel has its pros and cons that impact the stay experience.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were basic with limited storage for clothing but were clean, and the service was excellent. However, the hotel seemed a bit old with visible wear and tear marks. The location was fantastic as it was centrally located, close to many attractions, and offered stunning views. The dining options were average, but with a nice discount for hotel guests. The facilities were adequate, with some room for improvement.
