Ottoman's Life Hotel Deluxe

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable bed, close to tourist centre. Excellent pool and gym , decent breakfast"

Meroddi Beyoğlu Residence

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at this hotel for more than a week with our family and booked four rooms. the hotel staff were polite and well-mannered. As for cleanliness, many reviews said the hotel was very clean, but I think this was an exaggeration. It was reasonably clean, but not as clean as we expected. The bathrooms need maintenance and renovation. Some areas did not look clean even after cleaning, and parts of the wooden bathroom fittings were damaged. These damaged areas could lead to dampness and attract insects, so I think the management should pay more attention to the bathrooms and renovate them. The location was excellent, with easy access to Taksim. The hotel also offered a free daily shuttle to Taksim, but unfortunately, the reception staff did not tell us about it. We only found out during the last two or three days of our stay. Overall, we were happy with most aspects of the hotel and had no major problems. However, I think the cleanliness ratings were a little exaggerated."
