for a four star hotel, I've had the experience of many better choices in other cities; but in Istanbul it was a good choice! The main advantages of this hotel is its cost and its location in Taksim Sq. but you should balanced expectancies; the hotel is aged, elevators are aged, the breakfast is so basic and the rooms are...

We've been placed in a twin bedded room when we requested a double bedded room. We've asked twice now for the staff to push our beds together to make it a single double bed,... More

If u want a room only for sleeping this hotel is fine, but if u like it for luxury it will be the worst hotel ever.

september 2011. 1. beware of "street view" rooms : night clubs (actually prostitutes) are located in front of the hotel, these places are fun by the turkish/russian mafia, they play EXTREMELY LOUD music on fridays and saturdays from 10pm to 6 am, and no one from the staff is brave enough to go and tell them that the music is...

The hotel location is ideal…2 mins walk from Taksim however, that the only good thing about the hotel. Beware of the hotel schemes to rip off your money by charging you for minibar items that you did not drink, it happened with me in addition to 4 of the group we have been traveling with. Moreover, we had food stolen... More

The showers are mal-functioning and too small. The breakfast is limited and there is no room service, moreover you are not allowed to... More
