We spent amazing 3 days in Istambul and Grand Kavi Hotel added positive emotions to our trip. Thank you very much!!!
Pros:

Everything was great! Nice and polite administrator, comfortable room, clean bathroom, nice view (Catholic Church in front of window). In the early morning once we could hear the sound of call to morning prayer, it was very atmospheric. The breakfast was great, maybe not so various, but enough to be full till lunch or even dinner. It contains everything you need to ordinary breakfast (eggs, different kinds of cheese and sausage, yogurt, saute, vegetables, butter, jam, olives, different types of cereal , milk, juice, coffee, tea, and something else which we didn’t try). My child was fully satisfied with the food for breakfasts.
The distance for the main tourist spots takes about 10-15 minutes on foot. To get to Dolmahbache you need to catch tram T1, tram station is 2 minutes on foot from hotel. Moreover it is situated next to the Food street, which is full with cafes, restaurants, so that you’ll never be hangry, and all nearby streets are bright and full with souvenir’s shops, fruits, which work till 23:00-1:00. We walked till late evening and it was safe.

BED BUGS!!!!!!!!!!!
Pros:

Nothing, worst stay i’ve ever had.

Cons:

Horrific experience from start to finish.
I arrived and was told my room (a single room which was meant to have a sea view) no longer exists in the hotel and that i would need to be moved 2 doors down to the their other hotel the Grand Bazaar Hotel. There may as well of been no window in the room as the window opened straight up to a wall with no view of outside at all (pictured below) when i asked if i could be moved because of this i was told they had no other single room available.
I then got attacked by BED BUGS on my first night (bites pictured below) and went straight to the reception about this the next morning showing them the visible bites i had woken up with and was then moved to another room that had a nicer view and more space but no working air conditioning hahahaha. This was honestly the worst stay i’ve ever had and i’ve travelled all over the world and leave nothing but positive reviews, this was an absolute nightmare stay and i STRONGLY suggest you do not even consider staying here.

Do not let the location or the price fool you.

Proximité centre ville et moyens de transport

Cons:

Temperature eau de douche fluctuante
Chambre très chaude ..dernier étage ..clim très bien
Petit déjeuner..jus de fruit à revoir..mettre une viennoiserie peut être..du miel..mais c'est un avis d'occidental..

Pros:

La posizione è perfetta per visitare il centro della città, il Gran Bazar si raggiunge a piedi in pochi minuti. Il personale è gentile e disponibile.

Cons:

La colazione dovrebbe essere un po' più variegata, mancano totalmente le brioches e anche la parte salata non è del tutto adatta ad una clientela internazionale.

Pros:

For a budget friendly option it was worth it. Only 15 minute walk from major sights. The staff was friendly and helpful even when the elevator was out for the first 2 days of my stay.

Cons:

The room was alot smaller than I expected.
