Set in a hotel area, a five minute walk from Taxim Square, this hotel is a tourist hotel catering mostly for people from the Middle East. Bedrooms are adequate, and some are being renovated, but as the hotel caters for families, can be noisy as young children seem stay-up late at night and frequent other's rooms. Breakfast is typical Turkish... More

I stayed in this "so called" hotel from 1.-4.2. What you can see on following picture was taken at 11:13 p.m. (!) from my room window. The workers are preparing the adjacent house base ALL THE NIGHT.

The hotel is good in general, the staff are friendly, the breakfast is good, rooms are kept clean. The real problem is that while the weather was very hot in Istanbul this August, the air conditioning was not working all the time. The reception told us that the AC works only after 5 PM, which means leaving the rooms very... More

From the outside it looked fine, but it was a real disappointment. We were first shown to rooms that stank of cigarettes. We ended up on the 1st floor which was a mistake as I didn't sleep well because of all the noise from outside. Breakfast was ok. The room itself was pretty basic and I felt myself scratching... the... More
