Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very comfortable and clean, especially the spacious bathroom which was a real treat. However, the issue with the AC not functioning properly was a bit disappointing. On the bright side, the hotel is impeccably clean overall.
The hotel is conveniently located just opposite the tram station with easy access to most attractions. The rooms are modern, comfortable, and equipped with all the necessary amenities. The service is commendable, with staff going out of their way to accommodate guests. However, the dining experience could be improved as the variety is limited. Overall, the value for money is excellent due to the great price and location.
The hotel offers a relaxing stay with a nice jacuzzi in the bedroom for unwinding after a busy day, although some areas show signs of age. Unfortunately, no complimentary water is provided in the rooms.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were on the larger side and quite comfortable, but unfortunately, mine wasn't made up when I returned at the end of the day. Ezgi on the front desk was very helpful. The service was good and friendly, especially from a room maid who was so on top of her job. The hotel's location was ideal, right beside the tram stop, making it easy to explore Istanbul. The dining experience was quite nice, although a bit expensive. Overall, a decent hotel with some room for improvement.
The hotel is conveniently located near the tram station, making it easy to access all the major attractions with ease. The rooms are cozy but can be noisy due to disturbances from neighboring rooms and some walls showing signs of age. The service is friendly and accommodating, ensuring a pleasant stay overall.
My stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable. The rooms are spacious and very well furnished, providing everything you need for a comfortable stay. However, there was a slight odor of stale smoke present. The service was exceptional with staff welcoming guests warmly and going above and beyond to meet their needs. The location is perfect with a tram station right in front of the hotel, but it can get crowded. The dining experience offered a good variety, although lacked a bit of creativity. Overall, a great stay with some minor drawbacks.
