Esta habitación no está en condiciones para ser ofrecida
Pros:

Solo la ubicación

Cons:

Nos ofrecieron una habitación que no funcionaba nada, no ducha, no lavabo y mucho ruido. La máquina del aire acondicionado de todo el edificio en la terraza de la habitación. Decía suite con vista al mar, de suite nada y vistas al mar un poco por encima de una alambrada, no lo recomiendo

Decepcionante
Pros:

A localização era muito conveniente para explorar o centro histórico e a limpeza do hotel é ótima.

Cons:

A comunicação com a recepção foi ruim desde a nossa chegada, nos sentimos desrespeitados. Embora o quarto fosse bonito e limpo, com excelente vista, a pressão da água no chuveiro foi decepcionante, a ponto de eu considerar lavar meu cabelo na pia.
O café da manhã possui poucas opções para alimentação ocidental e nem sempre havia ovos disponíveis, apesar da boa vontade da equipe da cozinha.

Pros:

Intet godt at sige udover at lokationen var god

Cons:

Værelset var ikke rent og personalet var ikke imødekommende. De gav os ikke det værelse vi havde booket og mente at de opgraderede os, men i stedet fik vi et meget mindre og ikke rent værelse!!

À deux pas des sites historiques, personnel très aimable, confortable
Pros:

Le personnel est vraiment adorable et compétant, la chambre était confortable, la literie bonne et tout était très propre. A quelques pas des sites historiques.

Cons:

Assez déçue par le petit déjeuner (beaucoup de choses mais pas très savoureux ) et le café est en poudre, je n’ai pas réussi à ouvrir les fenêtres (c’est peut être possible), la chambre était très petite pour une double.

残念
Pros:

ロケーションは良い。

Cons:

【要点】
深夜0時から部屋だけ停電し、真冬で暖房も止まり、真っ暗な状態で過ごすことになりました。翌朝伝えても修理されず、部屋交換も「今日チェックアウトだから我慢しろ」と拒否されました。シャワーは止まらず、ハンガーは1本、レストラン隣で騒音も酷く、携帯も充電できず旅行を続けるのが困難でした。スタッフは動画撮影に合意後に態度を急変させ、威嚇や「警察を呼ぶ」といった脅しもあり、安全面でも問題があります。

【詳細】
部屋の電気が夜中の12時から点かず、真っ暗な部屋で過ごしても電気の点く部屋に変えてくれませんでした。フライト遅延と豪雨の中22時にチェックインし、受付とは別棟の1階の部屋に案内されましたが、クローゼットにはハンガーが1本しかなく、濡れた服を乾かすこともできませんでした。シャワーは止まらず水漏れし、設定を調整しても改善せず、受付への内線もありません。深夜の豪雨の中で受付に行くのは困難だったため、翌朝6時に停電を伝えましたが、技術者が来ると言われただけで、9時に戻っても停電は未解決でした。

日勤スタッフに部屋の変更を求めても「今日チェックアウトだから我慢しろ」と拒否され、12時まで滞在できるはずなのに別の部屋を用意しませんでした。携帯の充電もできず、窓の外はレストランの席がすぐ隣で、朝はカーテンを開けられず部屋は真っ暗。妻は洗面台で化粧もできず、旅行者にとって致命的な状況でした。

スタッフに何度も部屋の変更を求めましたが、マネージャーにも修理業者にも連絡しておらず、動画撮影に合意した後に態度を急変させ、撮影を止めろと威圧し、「警察を呼ぶ」と脅すなど非常に不適切でした。手を叩いて威嚇し、エントランスに出てきたため、攻撃されるのではないかと感じるほどでした。マネージャーも到着後まず動画を止めろと言い、問題の本質を理解せず、部屋交換を最後まで拒否。最終的に空港までの無料送迎を提示されましたが、求めていたのは単に電気が点く安全な部屋でした。

レストラン隣の部屋は扉の開閉音や音楽が響き、睡眠も妨げられました。トラブルが起きた際、客に対して威嚇や脅しを行う対応は極めて不誠実で、安全面でも問題があります。同じ状況に遭う宿泊者が今後出ないことを願います。

Pros:

La posizione è ottima per visitare i luoghi di interesse culturale, ho trovato buono anche il ristorante..

Cons:

Il problema sono state: la prima stanza deluxe prenotata che aveva letti separati e il motore della pompa di calore sul terrazzo e non si riusciva a dormire, ho chiesto il cambio stanza e la doccia funzionava male (flusso d’acqua inconsistente dal soffione).
La climatizzazione della stanza poi, un mistero su come settarla.

还不错。
Pros:

这家酒店的早餐特别棒,位置也很靠近景点很方便。值得一提的是有一只猫咪和我们一起在房间睡了一整晚(当然是我们愿意的),这感觉太治愈了。

Cons:

前半夜暖风空调坏了,但服务员马上拿来了一个电暖器解决了问题。早上Wi-Fi大约有两个小时无法使用

Scam
Pros:

This is a scam. They draw people in, then claim they are overbooked and send you to a worse hotel 45 min away . Do not book here. Some people were moved without their knowledge aka moved from their room while they were still in it.

Cons:

Nothing

Nestled among historic treasures, this hotel offered an unforgetable experience in every corner. The quiet and elegantly designed rooms provided a delightful escape from the city’s hustle. The breakfast was so carefully prepared and fresh that each morning felt like a small feast.

Pros:

La ubicacion

Cons:

Las habitaciones que nos dieron no eran acordes a las características que habíamos reservado. Nos quejamos y solo nos cambiaron una de las dos habitaciones después de mucho insistir. Ninguna de las habitaciones esta insonorizada a pesar de que en la características así lo indique. La ventana de una de las habitaciones daba directamente al comedor y al no estar insonorizada la habitación, se oía a todos los huéspedes desayunar.

Pros:

Wir waren 4 Personen.Städtereise 2 Pärchen.
Lage des Hotels und Preis war perfekt.

Cons:

Es gab zwei Hotels wo die Gäste aufgeteilt wurden Joyway Hotel Istanbul Sultanahmet und Hotel Ishak Pasa Palace by Joyway.Wir hatten Ishak Pasa Palace by Joyway gebucht.
Frühstück findet für alle Gäste im Ishak Pasa statt.
Leider freche Betreuung des Kellners.Nach der Frage wann noch anderes Gebäck zum Frühstück kommt?
Kommt erst am 09:00.
Frühstück war nur sehr notdürftig.Sehr wenig Auswahl.Auch altes Brot vom Vortag.
Frühstück war aber von 08:00-10:30
Dann der Höhepunkt.Der Kellner kam und sagte:Wir würden zu lange beim Frühstück sitzen!!!!!!Normalerweise nur 15-20min.So etwas ist uns noch nie gesagt worden.Eine Frechheit.

Mein Mann hat dies an der Rezeption im Hotel Joyway Istanbul Sultanahmet gemeldet,daraufhin wurde der Kellner zur Rede gestellt.Der Rezeptionist im Joyway Hotel hat sich entschuldigt.
Es gab vom Kellner keine Entschuldigung,wir hatten daraufhin keine funktionierende Klimaanlage mehr!!!
Leider konnten die Mitarbeiter des Joyway nichts machen,da es geteilte Hotels sind.

!Kaffeemaschine wurde im Idhak Pasa nicht gereinigt.Reinigung des Stiegenaufgang im Hotel mangelhaft.Es wurde nicht gesaugt bzw.gekehrt.
Fernsehen nur mit türkischen Fernsehsendern.
Wäre nach langen Ausflügen auch in Deutsch toll gewesen.
