Schöner Aufenthalt in Istanbul
Pros:

Schönes Neues Hotel mitten in Fatih,
Die Straße des Hotel war sehr belebt mit vielen anderen Hotels und Restaurants.
Paar Minuten entfernt gibt es eine lange Einkaufsstraße mit alles was man benötigen könnte und Tram Linien.
Zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten auch zufuß sehr leicht erreichbar ca. 20-30 Minuten.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war leider eng.

Приятный отель с отличным расположением, чистыми номерами и доброжелательным персоналом — хорошее соотношение цены и кач
Pros:

Отдельно хочется поблагодарить персонал за внимательное отношение к гостям. По нескольким причинам первоначальный номер нам не подошёл, и сотрудники пошли нам навстречу, оперативно предложив другой вариант. В итоге нас разместили в более комфортном номере с прекрасным видом, что сделало пребывание ещё приятнее. Также понравилось удобное расположение отеля в центре Стамбула, рядом с достопримечательностями и общественным транспортом. Номер был чистым, постельное бельё и полотенца безупречно чистые.

Осторожно, есть риск влюбиться, хаха
Pros:

Искала медь, а нашла золото! Отель потрясающий, очень чистый, персонал шикарный, завтраки отличные, вид во время завтрака отпадный 🙈
Есть девочка русскоговорящая. Вроде, Аиша зовут 😅 Поразила в самое сердце меня и мою подружку. Всегда поддержит разговор, подскажет что-нибудь!
В номере есть всё необходимое, кроме халата 🤭
Есть зона для курящих: можно спуститься и прикурить сигаретку внизу, а можно наверху, на террасе, с видом на Стамбул

A fost un sejur foarte plăcut, servicii profesioniste și o atmosferă calda
Pros:

Am avut o experiență foarte plăcută la Hotel Royal Craiova. Micul dejun a fost foarte bun și variat, iar personalul a fost extrem de ospitalier, profesionist și atent. Am simțit multă căldură și grijă din partea oamenilor de acolo, ceea ce a făcut șederea cu atât mai plăcută.

Singurul minus minor, mai degrabă o preferință personală, ar fi că mi-ar fi plăcut să existe o terasă propriu-zisă, mai intimă. În prezent sunt doar câteva mese la ieșirea din restaurant, amplasate pe trotuar.

Per total, recomand cu drag hotelul pentru atmosfera primitoare, serviciile bune și oamenii calzi care fac diferența.

Pros:

Очень понравился номер в отеле, все было чисто и аккуратно. Хороший дизайн отеля. Уборщица приходила каждый день и меняла наши полотенца. Были два хороших мужчины на ресепшене, к сожалению помню только имя Şakir, и еще один милый мужчина. Помогали со всеми нашими вопросами.
Ходила в спа два раза, он маленький но все равно приятный бонус. Посидеть в бане, и искупаться в маленьком бассейне.
Завтрак хороший.
Спасибо большое

Pros:

We had a wonderful experience at Lions Royal Hotel in Istanbul.

The food was delicious and fresh every day.
The staff were outstanding - so helpful, kind, and always ready to assist with anything we needed.
Rooms were spotlessly clean and comfortable.
Location couldn't be better - right in Sultanahmet, walking distance to Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Grand Bazaar.

Will definitely come back. Highly recommend!

Overall, great stay, would recommend this propery!
Pros:

The location is great, walkable to metro and tram lines that would take you to any key attractions. All hotel employees were wonderful and very accomodating to me and my parents. Specifically, Aicha made our stay very enjoyable: she checked in on us every day, asked if we need anything and gave great recommendations. We also really enjoyed our interactions with Samara, Ebrar, Habib and Sakir! Breakfast was great (my favorite was coffee) and the view on the rooftop was nice. Sauna and pool were also a great perk to have.

Cons:

The walls are on a thin side, even though advertised as soundproof. I could hear all my neighbors and they were pretty loud until late at night. Also, the original room I stayed at had a lot of pigeon activity… they were diving under the roof near my window, and their noises were a little loud. Lastly, the rooms were cozy, but on a small side. I am used to have at least one chair in the room, but both rooms are stayed at were too small to fit a chair.

Hervorragend für Sightseeing in Istanbul
Pros:

Lage ist gut, zu Fuß ca. 25 Minuten zur Blauen Mosche, Hagia Sophia etc.
Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Zimmerupgrade in den 7. Stock mit Stadtblick war hervorragend und auch das Frühstück von der Dachterrasse ein Genuss.

Cons:

Im Bad könnte es ein paar Aufhänger für die Handtücher geben
