Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and truly enjoyed every moment. The atmosphere was welcoming, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and everything was well organized.
A special thanks to the manager Mehmet, who was incredibly friendly, kind, and always ready to help. His positive attitude and professionalism really made our experience even more enjoyable.
We felt genuinely welcomed and well taken care of throughout our stay. We would definitely recommend this hotel and would love to come back again in the future. :)

There are better options on Taksim
Pros:

Location and wellness.

Cons:

We spent a whole week at the hotel and we can say with certainty that the breakfast is the same every day, with extremely little choice, the windows are leaking, the shower cabin is extremely small and impossible to close because it is not well made and also because it is so small that a larger person cannot close the cabin door behind them. Problems with the elevator are constant and daily. We stopped in the middle of the ride and got stuck in the elevator several times. According to the reviews, we experienced a real disappointment. The best thing to praise is the daily cleaning of the room and daily change of towels, as well as the location in the middle of a lively street a few steps from Talsim.

Немного скудный завтрак и плохая шумоизоляция. Было ощущение, что соседи хлопают дверьми в моем номере

Ess Hotel Taksim Istanbul
Pros:

Very friendly, beautiful reception area that gave a welcoming yet relaxing calm atmosphere

Cons:

I think my room was a studio size, even though it was good and adequate I think I'd prefer a larger room if staying morethan 4 or 5 nights

La piscina, pulita e curata, ha l’acqua un pochino fredda
