"Staff was very friendly, breakfast was incredible (one of the best I've ever had), and the room was perfectly fine for the price. The bathroom was a little rundown but the water pressure was great. I would give 5 stars but the beds werent super comfortable and mine was noticeably leaning to the side."

"Everything was lovely, cleanliness, breakfast, nearby tram station and lots of friendly cats around lol. The only thing that bothered us was the street noise at night sometimes, since we were on the first floor.
Overall definitely a very pleasant stay."

"I stayed here for a week, using the room mainly as a base for sleeping and showering since I spent most of my time out exploring. The room was comfortable and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.
During my stay I had an unsettling incident with a local, and the team went out of their way to put me at ease, keeping me informed every step of the way. What really impressed me was that, despite having absolutely no responsibility for what happened, they proactively offered me a...

"The cleanliness, breakfast or services did not meet 5 star standards. I have stayed in many 5 star hotels and this is around 3 star worthy. We had a wet carpet for our entire stay and hotel staff clearly just didn’t understand or try to understand what we was saying. We had to request new towels daily & our room was only cleaned once on a 4 night stay. Cleaning staff enter the room despite the clearly displayed sign left us feeling uncomfortable and unsafe, on two occasions (one morning) and we do not believe this was handled appropriately at all.
We were additionally disappointed with the breakfast. The breakfast selection had very little variety. Although we paid for breakfast as part of our stay, we only ate there once and ended up purchasing breakfast elsewhere for the remainder of the trip due to the poor experience.
Spa tried to charge us full price despite online stating 20% off for people staying in the hotel - when queried she offered 15% off instead - booked this hotel for the spa experience and did not end up doing!
Located in a good place where most things are walking distance."
"For $300+ for a few hours of rest, I expected better. I expected toilet paper in the bathroom, and paper towels. It is certainly convenient but just skeeves me out a bit. The staff was responsive when asked, but I should not have had to. It was relatively quiet, but not totally. Unlikely I will return - my youth hostel days are over."
"The room was great but a bit hot at the beginning. Then the AC was fixed and it was very comfortable. We appreciated the 2 bottles of water provided regularly lot. The breakfast was excellent with many choices that changed a bit every day. This is a bonus as we stayed there for 6 nights and one would want some variety. The hotel is on a lovely side street. The staff is helpful and friendly."
"Great location right in the heart of Taksim. Our room had an amazing view, which was definitely the highlight of our stay. While the room was a bit small for two people, the stunning view more than made up for it. A special thank you to our housekeeper, Bedriye, who was incredibly kind and kept our room spotless every day. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back!"
"Everything was great. The only thing I can only complain about it is that the AC in my room wasn’t working. I went there to her surgery and I put the Hilton because he has a very good reputation and is supposed to be comfortable however the AC in my room was broken. I have to call the people to fix it a couple of times. It’s not the conditions I want to be when you are going to surgery and you just wanna chill and recover room temperature was sometimes 28°. I was swearing it was very uncomfortable. You definitely don’t fly 12 hours to get surgery and chill in a room that is 28°."
