Looks reasonable initially but I would agree with some of the earlier reviews that elude to the lack of service one would normally receive in a 5 star hotel Paid for B+B inclusive; expected an additional room service charge for having breakfast in our room - did NOT expect to pay additional 56TL ie the price of 2 additional breakfasts...

I was a bit worried about this hotel after reading previous reviews but I had a very pleasant stay albeit with a few caveats. The building is slightly dated and would never have won any architectural awards, even in its heyday, but I think this complaint has been exaggerated slightly by other reviewers. The location is very central although I... More

Second visit to this hotel and I guess I'm starting to like this hotel, though it's not one of the fancy properties that you would come across the globe. The best part of this hotel is that most of the trade-shows, exhibitions, seminars are held here, so staying at the hotel makes sense as the bother of travelling by taxi... More

The rooms are nice and spacious. Bathroom could do with a bit of bleach or new sealant around bath. Reception staff could be friendlier. Wifi is free. Breakfast was fine. I was woken up very early by a large crown of noisey Chinese tourists but thats not the hotels fault. Good value hotel compared to the UK More

The hotel gives a bad representation of the hospitality of Istanbul and the Turkish people. Although the hotel is rated as 5-stars, it is the equivalent of 3 stars in Dubai or Europe. The rooms are clean but not fancy or up-to 5-star standard. The breakfast is poor, glasses and plates are not clean, no variety of food, staff are... More

We were pleasantly surprised when we first arrived - it was more than we were expecting in terms of first impressions. You do need to go through a little airport security checker, but I don't really see the point as even if you beep they don't check you anyway. Staff were helpful. Drinks and food at the hotel is extorsionately... More

The room was clean but the fixtures and fittings terrible. 1 towel, no shower curtain and lights didn't work (reception told me they had no more towels or light bulbs!) Service can be wonderful or just useless - how much of that was because a lot of staff didn't speak English? That might also be why I got someone elses... More

Stayed at this hotel as the convention was being held in the same hotel. It really has a very huge convention centre and it makes good business sense to stay in this hotel. All the action is in Taksim square which is a short cab drive from this hotel. Good food, nice cheerful staff. More
