Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms offered beautiful views of the Bosphorus, but the windows needed cleaning. The service was lacking compared to Europe and the US standards, although breakfast was served efficiently. The location was convenient, near Taksim Square and Steklal Street, but the dining options were limited. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers rooms with a view of the Bosphorus and clean toilets, making it a pleasant choice for a pre-dinner drink. The view is a definite plus, but there are minor issues to consider.
I absolutely loved the hotel's incredible Bosphorus view from my room, although it would have been even better if the windows were cleaner. The air conditioning worked perfectly, making my stay very comfortable and enjoyable. The service was lacking the European or US standard at breakfast, but I found the room service and housekeeping to be efficient. The hotel is situated in a very good neighborhood, close to Taksim station and near the vibrant Taksim square. The rooftop restaurant offered a stunning view over the mighty Bosphorus, even though it was a bit expensive. The modern facilities were top-notch, enhancing my overall experience.
The hotel offers stunning Bosphorus views from the rooms and excellent air conditioning. The service is not quite up to European or American standards, and breakfast could be improved. The location is ideal, close to Taksim Square, but the area can get lively. Dining provides breathtaking city views but is a bit pricey. Overall, a great choice for those seeking iconic views and good room comfort.
This hotel offers a picturesque view of the Bosphorus from rooms with balconies, although some have only a partial view. The service may not match European or US standards, especially during breakfast. The location is convenient, with easy access to public transportation and major attractions, including Taksim Square. The dining experience, while featuring a lovely city view, can be a bit pricey. Overall, it's a great value for a stay in a prime location.
The hotel is situated in a lovely neighborhood close to Taksim Square, offering a pleasant stay with a view. The decor is clean and the toilet was well-maintained. Although the windows could use a cleaning, the overall experience was comfortable for the price.
