אני לא ממליץ על הבית מלון הזה מנסיון
Pros:

המיקום של המלון טוב יש בן אדם מבוגר אחראי בחדר אוכל שקיבלנו ממנו שירות הכי טוב בשהייה שלנו

Cons:

המלון בקומה 5 צריך שיפוץ לא נקי אחרי שהערתי להם שהחדר שקיבלתי במצב גרוע מאוד והריח שהיה בחדר לא נסבל

Pros:

Lo mejor el encargado del desayuno y el desayuno en general. Seckin muy amable y atento. Habitación amplia y buena ubicación.

Cons:

Pedimos una triple con 3 camas individuales y acabé durmiendo en una supletoria malísima. Peor que un camping. Además las otras camas eran una individual y una cama de matrimonio así q no había sitio porque realmente era una triple con 4 camas. Muy mal.

⭐ Wundervoller Aufenthalt – Freundliches Personal, perfekte Lage und tolle Atmosphäre
Pros:

Wir waren zu zweit für einen Mädchen-Trip im Hotel Golden Horn Sirkeci und hatten einen wirklich tollen Aufenthalt. Besonders das Personal am Empfang war hervorragend – immer freundlich, hilfsbereit und zu jeder Zeit für uns da. Egal bei welcher Frage oder Gelegenheit, uns wurde immer sofort weitergeholfen. Dadurch haben wir uns während des gesamten Aufenthalts sehr sicher und gut aufgehoben gefühlt.

Auch die Damen von der Zimmerreinigung waren sehr freundlich, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer war immer sauber und ordentlich. Besonders schön fanden wir, dass das gesamte Personal im Hotel uns immer mit einem Lächeln begrüßt hat. Dadurch herrschte im ganzen Hotel eine sehr warme und angenehme Atmosphäre.

Ein großes Dankeschön auch an Herrn Seckin und Herrn Hayri, die sich beim Frühstück wunderbar um die Gäste gekümmert haben. Beide waren immer aufmerksam, nett und haben jeden Morgen für eine angenehme Atmosphäre gesorgt. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker, abwechslungsreich und jeden Tag frisch mit wechselnder Auswahl.

Die Lage des Hotels ist perfekt. Sultanahmet, der Große Basar und viele weitere Sehenswürdigkeiten sind bequem zu Fuß erreichbar. Auch Restaurants, Cafés und öffentliche Verkehrsmittel befinden sich ganz in der Nähe. Dadurch ist das Hotel ideal für einen Städtetrip in Istanbul.

Vielen Dank an das gesamte Team des Hotel Golden Horn Sirkeci für die tolle Gastfreundschaft. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen und können das Hotel nur weiterempfehlen!

Excellent
Pros:

Me and my family stayed here in April and we had an exceptional experience. The hospitality, cleanliness and attention to detail were outstanding. A big thank you to Kenan, Seçkın, and the entire team (whose names I can’t remember) for their kindness and care.
We loved the 24/7 access to the rooftop and the quality of the breakfast and service was amazing. The terrace view was phenomenal and we loved every moment of our time in the hotel.
The location was perfect - close to metro stations and many popular attractions, which made everything so convenient.
We also appreciated how warmly our friends were welcomed. We’ll definitely be staying here again Insha’Allah🤍
