Pros:

Clean and comfortable in general. Nice location, good service.

Cons:

It was quite noisy. All windows in hotel are turned to the pretty loaded road and you can hear the traffic even with closed windows.

Pros:

Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Wir wurden mehrfach gefragt, ob wir etwas brauchen. Sicheres Umfeld und ruhiges Hotel. Perfekt für ein Kurztrip, wenn man Zentral sein möchte und ein sauberes Hotel haben möchte. Außerdem gibt es ein Kiosk in direkter Nähe. Der Galataturm ist nur 5 Minuten Fußweg entfernt. Ein Fahrservice vom Flughafen zum Hotel sowie Hotel zum Flughafen wurde uns ebenso angeboten. Alles wurde schnell und problemlos abgewickelt. Das Hotel ist empfehlenswert und wir werden uns gerne ein weiteres Mal dort aufhalten, wenn wir in Istanbul sind. 👍🏽

Bra
Pros:

Flotte nye rom. Bra størrelse. Bra toalett. Veldig ok frokost. Døgnåpent. Kort gangavstand til hovedgata i Galata.

Cons:

Ligger nært hovedveien så det er konstant vegstøy. Kunne vært juice til frokost.

Boa relação qualidade-preço no centro
Pros:

O hotel era muito central e não tinha barulho de pessoas, apesar de estar numa zona próxima de comércio e restaurantes. Estava perto de Karakoy a pé, a 3 minutos do metro em Galata e de muitos autocarros. Os funcionários são simpáticos, especialmente o Abdulah e o irmão. São super prestáveis e o check-in/ out é feito de uma forma tranquila. O quarto é como descrito e tinha tudo tal como anunciado, além de ser bastante limpo.

Cons:

O pequeno-almoço é péssimo, foi sem dúvida a única coisa de que não gostei. Tentei uma vez e não consegui mais do que isso. Nos restantes dias fui a um sítio incrível com uma vibe nórdica mesmo ao lado do hotel chamado Mola (muito bom mesmo). Apenas uma nota menos positiva: por vezes é difícil comunicar com os funcionários do hotel devido a um inglês mais básico, podiam investir mais nisto. A segunda nota é que, apesar de não se ouvir barulho de pessoas, o hotel está ao pé de uma via rápida onde estão constantemente a passar carros e esse barulho não para, mesmo durante a noite. Resolvi esse problema com tampões, mas quem não levar, pode ser mais difícil para adormecer.
