Bisogna imparare a contestare sul posto quando qualcosa non va.
Pros:

La posizione, la pulizia della camera e l' albergo in generale.

Cons:

È meglio evitare la mezza pensione. I primi 4 giorni ci hanno trattato malissimo a cena, ci hanno servito avanzi di colazione e cibo riscaldato. Ma dopo che abbiamo contestato il trattamento alla direzione, hanno subito cambiato il servizio e per gli ultimi 9 giorni è andata molto bene.

Pros:

El hotel esta en una ubicación excelente, junto a la Torre Gálata, el acceso a los puentes y el metro, tiene cerca numerosos cafés, restaurantes y tiendas. La atencion es muy buena, las habitaciones cómodas y todo esta muy límpio.

Cons:

En realidad me gustó todo, solo puedo criticar pequeñas cosas sin importancia, por ejemplo pequeños detalles de mantenimiento, cosas quizá un poco demasiado viejas, o inevitables, como el que la calle sea bastante ruidosa, y se oiga algo de ruido, incluso con las ventanas cerradas, lo mismo con el desayuno, era bueno, pero la sala era grande y un poco ruidosa.

nice stay
Pros:

Very nice clean room, comfortable bed, helpful staff, I even got a basket of fruit upon arrival! Beautiful views from the windows.

Cons:

The internet was very poor, the shower drain was not working well and the shower flooded as soon as you start running water. Swimming pool did not have a changing room.

Єконом варіант. Більше схожий на слабкий санаторій
Pros:

Сніданок непоганий. Але для 4 зірок дуже слабкий. Щодня одне й теж саме

Cons:

Готель абсолютно не відповідає категорії. Це скоріш слабка 3 як для Туреччини. Ми оплатили сніданок та вечерю, але вечері там немає в принципі. На мою вимогу в перший день нас покормили, але тим (майбуть), що залишилося на кухні

Scarsa pulizia, non venivano rifatte le camere, struttura vetusta e fatiscente, colazione non sufficientemente adeguata alla categoria dell’albergo, staff non preparato in pochi capivano perfino l’inglese

TOTALMENTE DECEPCIONANTE
Pros:

1- O que realmente valia a pena era o café da manhã. Porém, como o cardápio não mudava, a partir do segundo dia já se tornava enjoativo.

2- A localização do hotel.

Cons:

1. O ar-condicionado estava quebrado. Reclamei na recepção e me disseram que havia um problema geral, que uma equipe estava verificando os equipamentos, mas nada foi resolvido. Pedi para trocar de quarto e negaram sob a mesma justificativa.

2. O frigobar simplesmente não funcionava — estava mais para um forno do que para refrigerador. Eu estava com uma criança e precisava manter o leite gelado para minha filha, mas não foi possível. Ao reclamar, a recepcionista sugeriu que eu utilizasse a geladeira do bar do hotel. Na primeira noite aceitaram guardar os itens, mas na segunda, ao tentar novamente, o atendente — se não me engano chamado “Hassan Bey” — foi extremamente grosseiro e disse, com essas palavras: “É proibido usar a geladeira do bar, deixamos aquele dia como uma forma de remédio para resolver o problema.” Como assim? O problema do frigobar continuava e nada foi feito para resolver.

3. Um detalhe surreal: o hotel praticamente não tinha funcionários que falassem inglês. A atendente noturna só falava turco e francês. Para um hotel que recebe turistas do mundo inteiro, isso é inaceitável.

4. Foi, sem dúvida, a pior estadia da minha viagem de 24 dias pela Europa. O mais decepcionante é que já havia me hospedado no Grand Halic Hotel em 2018 e a experiência tinha sido excelente, o que me motivou a retornar. Porém, desta vez, tanto no meu quarto quanto no dos meus sogros os problemas foram os mesmos: nada funcionava direito.

5. Minha recomendação é clara: fiquem longe do Grand Halic Hotel. Se estiver pensando em se hospedar aqui, fuja e escolha outro hotel — mesmo que custe um pouco mais, valerá a pena evitar tanta dor de cabeça.

Nicht zu empfehlen. Braucht dringend Renovierung.
Pros:

die Lage ist schön in der Nähe von der Haltestelle Sishane wo viele Busse und Ubahn fahren.

Cons:

Ich war mit meiner Familie 2 Kinder und 2 Erwachsener für 4 Nächte im Hotel. Die Sauberkeit im Zimmer 301 war nicht gut die Wände sind alt gestrichen. Die Klimaanlage macht Geräusche die ganze Zeit und kann man nicht die Flügel Richtung ändern deshalb bin ich von der ersten Nacht krank geworden. Das Frühstück war auch nicht so begeistert und für Omelet Eier muss man Extra 2€ zahlen obwohl das ganze Frühstück inklusive Übernachtung war. Im Pool waren wir nur einmal für 15 Minuten dann sind wir rausgegangen das Wasser war nicht sauber da sind Stückchen und Haare drin. Es gibt im Pool nicht mal ein Platz um die Sachen wie Badetuch und Kleidung hinzulegen. Es sind insgesamt vielleicht 4 Hacken an die Wände für alle, die im Pool sind. Das Personal ist in Ordnung aber sie dürfen auch lächeln da werde ich als Kunde nicht sauer wenn einmal lächeln.
Kleidung Bügeln ist gegen Gebühr und nicht kostenlos.

Insgesamt wurde ich das Hotel nicht weiterempfehlen und empfehle der Besitzer vielleicht für 2 Monaten das Hotel zu schließen und komplett zu renovieren.

Spa harikaydı , Odalar güzeldi , Sıcak karşılama sıfırdı
Pros:

Spa gerçekten harikaydı, odalar geniş ve manzarası muhteşemdi , yatak çok rahattı

Cons:

Check-in sırasında (saat 16:30 -17:00 civarı) resepsiyondaki görevli hiç gülümsemedi, ilgi göstermedi ve otel hakkında hiçbir bilgi vermedi. Hata Sert bakışları vardı onunlu çok tatlı konuşmamızı rağmen Buna karşılık akşam 22:00’den sonra görevli olan genç çok kibar, güleryüzlü ve yardımcıydı, kendisine teşekkür ederiz. Bu otele kesinlikle tekrar geleceğiz çok güzel bi yer
