We had a nice stay at Novotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was comfortable and quiet. Breakfast spread was good. Shuttle service is a boon but you should book an advance. While the location is not the best from a tourist's point of view, it takes some 15-20 minutes to Sultanahmed area by shuttle.

OK hotel but nothing to write home about. Restaurant has a cool clinical atmosphere in the evening, low quality food and is overpriced. Breakfast then again is great and reasonably priced. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Location is good as far as distance from downtown is concerned but lousy as hotel is built on the shore of the sea of... More

Good hotel but location for a tourist visiting the city is too far out. The bedrooms are very comfortable and clean. The gym is excellent and clean. The restaurant for dinner was expensive and food nothing to rave about. The breakfast however was excellent with a big variety of food to choose from. Well worth €15. The shuttle into the... More

Nova Hotels was very nice. Free shuttles and free WiFi in the rooms. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Would be great if their shuttle service had later returns to the hotel from city. Breakfast was great, much better than the hotels I stayed in Italy. The only negative point was that the restaurant food at night was a bit... More

If you've seen one Novotel, you are probably seen them all, practical and standard. Service was Ok but the staff at the restaurant had English limitations and we couldn't get a non smoking room. Close to the airport, but far from the historic downtown, so certainly not good for tourists.

We stayed here for two nights as part of a tour recently. While the hotel is relatively modern and set up for business travelers, being relatively close to Attaturk airport, it is too far away from the tourist sites in central Istanbul to be considered good value for money for vacationers.j The staff that we encountered were friendly and efficient...

Overall the hotel is good. Stayed for 3 nights on business. Breakfast is good with lots of choices. It's near the old city and the airport but not accessible on foot. You have to take a cab. There's a shuttle but you have to check the departure times. Staff was friendly enough but some seemed too serious, not smiling. What... More
