Gran hospedaje ubicado en una zona muy activa
Pros:

Gran hospedaje, personal muy amable, las camas muy cómodas y las habitaciones muy bien. Lo recomiendo y la zona tiene muchos locales de fiesta, o de comida que favorece si estás familiarizado con ese ambiente. Entorno muy activo.

Cons:

Se escucha un poco el ruido de la calle pero esta bien.

Local adequado para uma rápida estadia
Pros:

A localização é no coração de Taksim, então fica perto das atrações e restaurantes mas tem muito ruído, dormi com protetor, depende do que está buscando.

Cons:

Apesar de ser um hotel com uma boa apresentação, tiveram alguns pontos: porta do banheiro não fechava, primeira noite o ar condicionado estava quebrado e não me deram uma coberta reserva( na segunda noite deram) e depois arrumaram o ar condicionado. O que mais chamou a atenção é que tomei várias picadas. Funcionários ótimos e muito solícitos.

Beautiful charming hotel
Pros:

Good location, only few meters from Istiklal street and main Taksim station. Hosts are very kind and helpfull and hotel is very beautiful inside. They even booked us a taxi home and helped with bags. They bring you water for refreshment and you can use coffee and tee. The room was big with a kattle and mini fridge which is very helpfull if you are staying with children. Hotel is clean, sheets and towels as well and bathroom is big and beautiful.

Cons:

It is very difficult to sleep 😔 you can hear people upstairs walking so loud that your chandalier is moving and glass parts are making noise everytime someone up walks. Maybe that was the smallest problem, the bigger was karaoke bar next to the hotel, live music until early morning hours like 4 a.m.- everyday, even sunday 🙈 that is so sad for such a good hotel, and that is the only problem. 🙌 everything else was just great.

Pros:

J’ai apprécié l’accueil et la disponibilité du personnel, avec une mention spéciale pour Ahmed et Hassen qui ont été au top. La propreté des lieux et l’ambiance chaleureuse ont rendu le séjour très agréable.

Cons:

La rue peut être un peu bruyante car le quartier est très animé, mais le double vitrage permet tout de même de bien dormir. À noter aussi une légère odeur remontant des canalisations dans la salle de bain mais rien de méchant.

Pros:

The hotel is located right in the heart of the city, making it easy to get to all the see sights.

The staff is very friendly and professional.

The room and bathroom were clean and tidy, with unlimited drinking water and coffee.

The area has plenty of shops and great cafes, and it’s generally a safe neighborhood.

We recommend this hotel for both long stays and short trips.
