Bulunduğu bölgeye göre çok güzel bir otel.
Pros:

Karşılama güzel, çalışanlar ilgili, oda temiz, bulunduğu bölgeye göre çok güzel bir otel. Arka odalarda kalacaklar için gece klima sesi biraz fazla ön odalarda daha sessiz olacağını düşünüyorum. Genel olarak tavsiye ederim.

Pros:

Siamo stati in questa struttura in quattro persone e ci siamo trovati molto bene. La stanza era ampia, comoda e perfettamente pulita. Il personale è stato sempre gentile e disponibile per ogni nostra richiesta. Abbiamo apprezzato anche la gamma di prodotti per il bagno messi a disposizione gratuitamente, un’attenzione in più davvero gradita.
La posizione è ottima: vicinissima a diversi ristoranti, a un viale ricco di negozi e ben collegata con i mezzi pubblici.
Nel complesso un soggiorno molto piacevole, ci è piaciuto davvero!

Pros:

I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights, and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. The location is extremely noisy, especially at night, as there are several clubs nearby, making it very difficult to sleep. The windows do not block out the noise properly and need urgent fixing.

While the property listed a gym and sauna during booking, these facilities were not available as they were being used for storage, which was very misleading. The breakfast was average—not bad, but nothing special.

On the positive side, the staff, especially the lady at breakfast, was very kind and friendly. The room itself was decent, but the bathroom was poorly designed. It only had a glass door through which you can easily see, which is highly inconvenient and uncomfortable, particularly for families.

The area feels unsafe and unpleasant at night, though it is better during the day and evening. The only real advantage of this hotel is its proximity to Istiklal Street.

Overall, I would not recommend this hotel for families or those looking for a peaceful stay.

Underbar personal
Pros:

Allt var bra, den snälla mannen som är nattvakt är helt underbar. Han hjälpte oss med allt. Samma med kvinnan i frukosten. Väldigt hjälpsamma och trevliga personal. De enda som störde oss var musiken och klubbandet som var på fredag och lördag i övrigt är de fint.

Pros:

Çalışanlara öncelikle teşekkür etmek istiyorum evimde gibi çok rahat ettirdiler güven verici çok samimi ve sıcak karşıladılar . Siz sadece isteyin onlar en güzel şekilde var etsin temizlik camlara kadar iyiydi çarşaflar sıfır tertemiz oda fotoda gördüğümüz gibi çok şık ve zevkli döşenmiş banyo malzemeleri kesesi diş fırçasına kadar bol bol konulmuş oda büyüklüğü gayet iyi . Aile oteliydi. Teras ta kahvaltı da bize çok iyi geldi ferah ve açık büfeydi. 7 yaşındaki oğlumuzla gittik gece yanına kamera koyduk hemen arka sokağı barlar sokağı eşimle gece 3 e kadar takıldık. Herşey kusursuzdu. Galatasaray lisesinin karşı sokağında 2dk. Yürüme mesafesinde istiklal caddesine ;) gezilecek yerlere çok yakın kızılkayalarda ıslak hamburger yemeyi ihmal etmeyin 😇

Pros:

This is a very cosy and modern hotel located in the most convenient location of Istanbul. Unfortunately being in the heart of the party district comes with a price as the night life is rampant with the music from clubs nearby blaring until early hours. We understand that this cannot be helped. But if the rooms can be soundproofed from the outside noise somehow this will be a flawless hotel. Madam Aylin's warm greeting in the morning during breakfast makes it all worthwhile almost despite the disturbed night's sleep. She is the charm of the property!

Pros:

hotel bem arrumadinho, atendente muito simpatico, cafe bom. o unico pecado desse hotel é a falta de limpeza tanto do quarto e banheiro como ss roupas de cama velhas e sujas. o local do cafe no quinto andar é que salva tudo. A moca responsavel é extremamente simpatica e caprichosa. Se nao me engano, o nome dela é Aslyn
