Pros:

DO NOT take a room on the top floor!! Specifically rooms 401/402/403. Risky in rooms 301/302/304. Even the second floor poses its risks of getting no sleep.
Although this hotel has a restaurant space on the ground level, they have opted to put the breakfast room on the top (5th) floor. The reasoning is that it has a view of the city and Bosporus, which it does, hidden behind a slough of not-so-pretty rooftops.
What they’ve effectively done, however, is sacrificed at least 6 good rooms, for paying guests who want to sleep, in favour of a breakfast room with tiled floors and wooden chairs with nothing to dampen the sound.
People, I cannot begin to describe how loud it gets. Although the location is perfect, and the staff mean so well, the no sleep factor makes the Tan Hotel a terrible choice.
Also, it you have hotels.com perks, like free drinks at the property, forget about them. There’s no such thing.
There’s also a very weird protruding spout in the toilets that, if you sit “wrong” will assault and sully your privates.
Lastly, although breakfast is served until 11, please see the pictures of what’s left at 10.

Can’t Beat the Location
Pros:

I traveled with the family. The family room was spacious and nice. The staff were super helpful. Breakfast at the rooftop was excellent with amazing views. The best thing was the location - close to all the tourist attractions! We will definitely stay here again without hesitation!

Pros:

I only have one complaint about my stay, the view from my room; everything else made me overlook it.
The staff is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Everyone at the hotel was helpful, friendly, professional and efficient. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The breakfast was pretty standard for mediterranean diet. The view from the terrace was pretty good since is partially affected by nearby buildings.

This trip truly made me fall in love with Turkey!

Location AND a view
Pros:

We had a great stay. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The view is spectacular and it is fairly quiet. We would have preferred to be able to turn the air on but the unit had not been switched to cool yet so that is our only “complaint” if we had to find one. In all, the location is amazing and the support staff are all wonderful.
