Pros:

The rooms are ok and clean, good located, many shops nearby and the staff is really nice. I recommend this hotel.

Cons:

That the pool is extra cost, let’s say I understand that the spa is extra cost, but I don’t understand the extra cost for the pool, especially the 20 € price per hour, which is pretty high.

Nuisance permanente de jours comme de nuit travaux j’ai des vidéos mais pas de photo très important chaque matin je suis
Pros:

La réception était correcte tout le reste catastrophique l’accueil du petit déjeuner personnel très désagréable voir insolent.

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner l’accueil et les plats proposés Madame, Monsieur,

Je vous contacte afin de déposer une réclamation concernant mon séjour réservé via votre plateforme au Danis Hotel & Spa Istanbul Old City, du 23 au 28 avril 2026 (chambre 104).

Ce séjour a été extrêmement décevant et ne correspond absolument pas aux standards attendus ni à la description de l’établissement.

Voici les principaux problèmes rencontrés :

Nuisances sonores constantes : travaux extérieurs chaque matin dès 6h-7h, ainsi que des bruits importants la nuit, notamment la veille de mon départ avec des nuisances jusqu’à 4h du matin, m’empêchant totalement de dormir pendant toute la durée du séjour.

Manque total de repos : je n’ai pu dormir correctement aucune nuit.

Hygiène inacceptable : le spa et le hammam, pourtant proposés à la privatisation, étaient extrêmement sales (présence de cheveux, saletés, odeurs insupportables).

Problème de santé : ma fille a développé des boutons après s’être baignée dans la piscine.

Service client défaillant : personnel peu accueillant, froid, et aucune solution proposée malgré mes signalements à la réception.

Cette situation est inacceptable, d’autant plus que j’avais réservé cet établissement pour me reposer.

Je vous demande donc :

L’ouverture d’une enquête auprès de l’établissement

Un remboursement partiel significatif, voire total au vu des conditions du séjour

Un geste commercial pour compenser ce préjudice

Je reste à votre disposition pour vous fournir toute preuve (photos, vidéos, etc.).

Dans l’attente de votre retour rapide. Je souhaite apporter des précisions supplémentaires concernant l’état des installations du spa.

Lors de notre accès au hammam et au sauna, il nous était impossible de prendre des photos en raison de l’humidité et des conditions d’accès. Toutefois, l’état des lieux était particulièrement insalubre (saletés visibles, cheveux, odeurs très fortes).

Par ailleurs, aucune bouteille d’eau propre ne nous a été proposée.

Highly Recommended - Great Service & Location
Pros:

The staff were friendly and welcoming, and both the room and the hotel overall were very clean and well maintained.

The location is excellent very convenient and within walking distance of the main square, making it easy to explore the area.

A special thank you to Bahadir, who was truly amazing. He was incredibly kind and took great care of my parents, making sure they felt safe, comfortable, and happy throughout their stay.

We would definitely come back again and highly recommend this hotel to others.

Cons:

Nothing. Everything met our expectations.

Tikėjausi geriau.
Pros:

Labai, labai gera vieta.
Gražus ir prabangiai atrodantis viešbutis.
Švari ir patogi lova.
Erdvus kambarys, dideli langai.

Cons:

Kambaryje labai trūko švaros, ant medžiaginių paviršių labai daug dėmių, buvo nemalonu, užuolaidos, langai labai purvini.. prie lubų kabo paliktos lipnios juostos po lubų tvarkymo..
Taip pat labai rekomenduoju atkreipti dėmesį kad viešbutyje mums buvo sugadintas iphone pakrovėjas, po kelionės jis nebeveikia, elektros srovė nepastovi, buvo vos įmanoma pasikrauti telefoną, gerai kad turėjome atsarginį kitos firmos pakrovėja.
Prasti pusryčiai, mažas pasirinkimas, labai prastos kokybės gėrimai.
Mokama spa zona.

Tutto ok con qualcosa a cui prestare attenzione
Pros:

Albergo molto vicino al centro della città e alle attrazioni più importanti (circa 25 minuti a piedi). Pulito e vicino anche alla metropolitana e al tram. Ottima colazione con varie scelte dolci e salate.

Cons:

Quando ho effettuato la prenotazione la struttura era in promozione col 60-65% di sconto sul prezzo intero. Questo ha generato in me un’alta aspettativa. Quando poi siamo arrivati ci siamo resi conto che il prezzo pagato era forse quello giusto. Booking dovrebbe verificare tutto ciò per evitare falsi entusiasmi!
