Μια χαρά η επιλογή μας κοντά σε όλα
Pros:

Mιά χαρά ήταν όλα. Ζεστό νερό, καθαρό δωμάτιο και μπάνιο. Καλής ποιότητας υλικά στα δωμάτια.Εύκολη πρόσβαση και το κυριότερο παρκινγ μεγάλο απέναντι στα 20 μέτρα (επι πληρωμή) οργανωμένο με 3 υπόγεια και μεγάλους χώρους

Cons:

Ο δρόμος πηγαίνοντας και φεύγοντας με το GPS μας έβγαλε από κάτι ανηφόρες. Θέλει προσοχή να μης περάσεις από εκεί έχουν μεγάλη κλίση και είναι αρκετά δύσκολο για αρχάριους. Υπάρχει καλύτερος δρόμος από γύρω. Δώστε βάση στον χάρτη.

Everything was great. I'll definitely be back :)
Pros:

I was very happy to stay at the Faros Hotel Taksim during my first vacation in Istanbul. The staff was very friendly and helpful, from the manager to the cleaners. The breakfasts were hearty, varied, and delicious. The hotel was conveniently located, with a 15-minute walk to the Bosphorus waterfront. There were also many nearby markets and fast-food establishments.
The hotel was clean, with daily cleaning services. The towels were also changed every day. There were no unpleasant odors in the room. A very convenient elevator to get to the 7th floor. During the entire week of vacation, there was only one small queue for the elevator, and that was when visitors were checking in and out (around 1 a.m. to 2 p.m.).
I especially liked the reception area in an emerald tone with gold and mirrors.
Next time, I will definitely stay at this beautiful hotel again.

Cons:

Sometimes you could hear the ventilation in the room, like a quiet squeak. But I was too picky about silence, and I never complained to the staff about this issue. I think it could have been resolved if I had mentioned it.

Rundum zufrieden
Pros:

Ich war 15 Nächte im Faros Hotel. Eigentlich unüblich, da es sich um ein Hotel für Kurzbesuche handelt. Die Lage ist optimal, wenn man Istanbul erleben möchte. Unweit vom Taksim Platz und alles zu Fuß zu ereichen. Ganz herzlich bedanke ich mich bei Ahmet und Lokman. Sie haben dafür gesorgt, dass ich einen tollen Aufenthalt im Hotel hatte. Zusätzlich wurde der Transfer vom Flughafen zum Hotel und zurück, über Ahmet und WahtsApp sorgenfrei geregelt. Alles aus einer Hand. Zu erwähnen sind auch die Frauen, welche sich um die Sauberkeit im Hotel und des gebuchten Zimmer kümmern. Freundlich und jeden Wunsch von den Augen ablesen. Danke noch einmal dafür. Die Zimmer sind etwas klein, was aber auch so in der Hotelbeschreibung ausgeschrieben ist. Sie sind sauber und mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt. Die Fenster sind Schallisoliert und man hört keinen Strßenlärm. Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt. In den 15 Nächten die ich da verbracht habe, hat es, an nichts gefehlt. Beim nächsten Besuch in Istanbul, werde ich das Hotel wieder buchen. Beste Grüße
Henry
