Excellent stay – Highly recommended!
Pros:

Some hotels are remembered for their location or facilities. We will remember Meretto Hotel because of Mr. Abdou and the outstanding hospitality he showed us throughout our stay.

We had a wonderful stay at Meretto Hotel. The location is excellent, just a short walk from the tram and metro stations, making it very easy to explore the main attractions in Istanbul.

The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Housekeeping did a great job every day, and the hotel offers excellent value for money. The breakfast was fresh, varied, and delicious.

What truly made our stay unforgettable was the exceptional hospitality of the staff, especially Mr. Abdou. He was incredibly kind, welcoming, helpful, and genuinely caring. He always took the time to guide us, answer our questions, and recommend places to visit and things to do. His generosity, professionalism, and warm smile made us feel at home from the very first day. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a pleasant stay, and his outstanding service deserves special recognition.

Thank you to the entire team for making our visit so enjoyable. We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend Meretto Hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul.

One last tip: if you have the chance, don't hesitate to ask for Mr. Abdou. His kindness, professionalism, and hospitality will make your stay even more enjoyable.

Istanbul è stupenda
Pros:

Posizione e gentilezza del personale

Cons:

Le camere andrebbero rimodernate. Servirebbe una panca o una poltrona in piu' per appoggiare le valigie.

Very lovely stay
Pros:

The room was very clean.
The breakfast selection was excellent.
The staff were friendly and polite.
Abdo is one of the stuff and he was very friendly and helpful. He helped us sorting out the fridge situation in our room I am trying to finish something so you’ll be patient. He was very helpful in giving us directions to a place we needed to go to.
Murat was another stuff that was exceptionally helpful. We wanted to go to Yalova and gave us directions on how to reach the fairy and printed the schedule.
All the stuff in the breakfast area and the reception were very friendly and polite.
We do recommend this location for the price and the value for the price as well as the location. It was within walking distance to the metro station.
Lots of grocery stores around and fresh fruit.

Жақсы қарсы алды, отельдің ережелерімен түгел таныстырды. Ресепшендегі, асханадағы сервистерге көңіліміз толды. Бөлме таза, тамақтары да жақсы.

Hôtel très bien situé, propre, avec piscine et service de petit déjeuner. Équipe très accueillante et serviable. Cependa
Pros:

L'hôtel présente deux avantages majeurs qui sont la localisation et le rapport qualité/prix, en plus d'une équipe très serviable.

L'emplacement est très intéressant puisque l'hôtel se situe à une centaine de mètres de marche de la principale ligne de tramway, le T1, depuis laquelle il est possible de se rendre sur la place Sultan Ahmet après seulement trois arrêts.

Concernant la qualité de l'hôtel, la propreté est très satisfaisante, avec une équipe très serviable, un service de petit déjeuner ainsi qu'une salle comprenant une petite piscine, généralement vide, ainsi qu'un sauna.

Je remercie particulièrement Abdu pour ses services ainsi que son hospitalité, en plus des autres membres de l'équipe.

Cons:

Le seul désavantage reste la ruelle par laquelle l'accès à l'hôtel se fait. L'ambiance est assez touristique du fait de la présence de nombreux hôtels dans la rue, avec un niveau sonore élevé en matinée et en soirée.

Il est préférable, si possible, de demander une chambre du côté de la rue principale et non une qui regarde la façade par laquelle l'entrée se fait.
