Most rooms are not yet refurbished and still are rather old fashioned and somber. Room 505 on the contrary (the one I had) is completely renovated. Only the finishing touches are missing. The view on Marmara sea is incredibly nice. Hotel staff could more more pleasant and helpful but since their level of English is low it makes it difficult... More

It was almost 10 years ago, so maybe today it's completely different, but back in 2003 this hotel was a dump. Rooms were not so clean and walls were black, like they burnt or something. There was no balcony and the only window was directly on the street level, so anyone could enter my room if they wanted to. Also,... More

The breakfast was very basic consisting of plain yoghurt, olives, hard boiled eggs, cheese, bread and jam, tea (awful) and coffee. There was no restaurant and the bedroom was very noisy as not insulated and guests slammed doors at all hours. In addition there was damp around the window and ceiling. Although we had a double bed the sheets and... More

The location is perfectly near all attractions.Reception personnel speak moderate English. Other personnel, didn't see anyone expect 1 time during breakfast. First time in Turkey I didn't give any tips. Big column in the middle of the room. Last morning I saw a cockroach, creepy. Bathroom not clean, lamp above sink had dust from about over a year thick.

They don't help you at all. The hotel wasn't clean and not appropriate for children or a family trip, or any other trip. There are so... More

The Hotel seemed nice at first, until we entered our hotel room. They hadn't vacuum cleaned underneath the beds for probably more than a year. The luggage carriers were very friendly but the people behind the desk were extremely rude and hardly spoke any English which is a requirement when working in the tourism industry. Contrary to the pictures the... More

Hotel is well located for Istanbul's main tourist attractions; with the exception of the Metro from the airport we walked everywhere. Local streets up to Grand Bazaar and other attractions are quite steep with uneven pave. A hiccup over our room choice the first night was rectified the following day and, we enjoyed a stay of 7 nights in clean... More
