Nice hotel with good staff
Pros:

I liked Arts hotel. Location is very good it is between Taxim square and Osmanbey subway. It is close to Nisantashi as well. With respect to quality of hotel and its facilities, the value is acceptable. Room size and cleanliness are very good. However, it is a normal 5 star hotel that consider to its price, it can be good choice as compared with other 4 star hotels located near Taxim.

Cons:

Breakfast could be better. The warm items were limited and for this hotel it could be improved.

Pros:

Great value for money. I went for business then stayed on for a holiday. The Arts Hotel Harbiye offers a professional service with a smile. The breakfast buffet was fresh and had great variety. The rooms were cleaned and fresh towels provided every day. The hotel is very well located away from the hustle of the tourist area , yet easy to get to with an Uber, taxi or bus. The staff were all very friendly

A great value and quality hotel in Istanbul
Pros:

The hotel was very clean, breakfast offered a wide range of Oriental and western foods, the staff friendly and professional, the Lucida Spa at the hotel was professional, not touristic. The hotel is very well located in a typical Turkish Suburb and close to the upmarket Nisantasi area. We enjoyed observing and experiencing Turkish living away from the Tourist areas. The tourist area of Hagia Sofia was just a bus ride or taxi ride away.

Warm and friendly staff made a great stay
Pros:

Stayed post surgery with my mum - staff were wonderful, caring and warm. I was worried I would feel self conscious but I shouldn’t have worried.
Gym is small but well appointed. Good choice of food at breakfast. Restaurant meals were large portions and staff were happy to amend to meet my post op dietary requirements. Room service available with good choice.
Hotel is located within easy walking of great restaurants, shops, hair salons, supermarkets and other hotels.
30 mins from Istanbul airport.
20mins from Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar.

Pros:

Εξαιρετικό πρωινό, είχε τα πάντα. Επίσης τα δωμάτια ήταν υπέροχα και πολύ προσεγμένα, ευρύχωρα και με ωραία αισθητική. Οι υπάλληλοι ήταν διαθέσιμοι να βοηθήσουν όλες τις ώρες της ημέρας και πάντα χαμογελαστοί.
