Great location, and a wonderful staff throughout. Will definitely book again on next visit.
The room was very old and very warm. The air conditioning wasn’t working. The spa and gym was old and unusable.
The service staff was great and very helpful.
Great location and friendly staff. The lobby bar is cozy, and the breakfast buffet had plenty of options. Unfortunately, my room had a strong sewage smell that didn’t go away, which affected the overall experience.
Everyone was nice and polite. Rooms was clean but I am not sure about no one allowed to come to my room even for short time
2- every morning been questioned about leaving hotel this day. I tooth this kind questions will be done at reception area.
Everything was excellent . Some problems and staff dealt with them fast and professional . Staff are very helpful and amazing . For sure I will go if I am in istanbul
I think the smoking should be forbidden in all hotels in Istanbul. Even though we stayed on the 7th floor, I could still smell it due to central air conditioning. The staff in the restaurants and the hotel overall are amazing very accommodating. Very clean rooms. I will definitely stay here again
Employees are very friendly and helpful. Food was good.
We stayed 2 nights in room 510. Room was big enough. However, the sink didn’t drain so that we had romove the drain hole cover. The second negative thing was the black mold around the shower base.
