Can’t wait to go back. ##### Nicole Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2019 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Artem May 4, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service При заезде менеджер отеля сказал, что не видит наши брони и что наши номера мы не сможем получить. Когда мы предоставили распечатки с номерами броней. Он позвонил в агрегатор отелей и начал разбираться. Отель у нас забронирован, через hotels.com, которые, как оказалось, работают через посредника: expedia.com. В итоге менеджер долго препирался и ругался на ситуацию, он оказался очень нервным. Говорил, нам что не виноват и ему самому приходится испытывать нереальные неудобства из-за нас в том числе. После звонка в expedia, с его слов, ему сказали, что нужно звонить в представительство hotels.com, как оказалось, у них выходной и никого нет. Мы позвонили в русское представительство hotels.com, как оказалось, они тоже не работают в выходной и нас бросили на произвол судьбы, гадать и обзванивать все телефоны мира в надежде, что нам ответят мы не особо горели желанием, учитывая роуминг. В итоге, после нескольких часов препирательств, нас заселили в номера эконом, хотя мы бронировали номера чуть выше классом: standart с балконом и при этом сказали, что не факт, что завтра мы останемся в отеле, что нас могут выселить на улицу. На следующий день менеджер попросил нас выехать из номеров и переехать в еще более худший эконом номер.Мы посмотрели, что в отеле есть свободные номера на весь срок нашего пребывания. После некоторых препирательств в итоге нас заселили в нормальный номер на оставшуюся часть нашего пребывания. Минусы: неадекватный менеджер, ветхость номеров, wifi. Оценка: 3 из 5. ##### Artem Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Suhail Mar 20, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location, hospitality & value. Very conveniently located within a 5 minute walk from tourist attractions such as Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sofia and Sultanahmet (Blue) Mosque, and a little further out is Galata Bridge, Spice Markets and the Grand Bazaar. Also only a minute walk from the hotel is Gulhane station connecting you to the rest of the city. Staff at reception were very friendly, welcoming and helpful in making recommendations. A nice Turkish breakfast is offered in the adjacent group hotel. Room cleanliness was OK, butcould have been improved. Noise from the hotel lobby travelled easily so occasionally got noisy. Room size was quite small but perfectly reasonable. Great location, hospitality & value: perfect for a cheap city break if you are going to spending most of your time exploring the city. ##### Suhail Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tülin Mar 7, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Dinlenmek için ideal İstanbula iş ziyaretim için gittiğimde pek çok yere yakınlığı ve ulaşım kolaylığının yanısıra temiz ilgili güler yüzlü personeli için tercih ettiğim güzel bir otel aynı zamanda aile olarak kalmak isteyenler için sıcak bir ortam ##### Tülin Stayed 1 night in Mar 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Serkan Jan 26, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Temiz merkezi temiz merkezi kalvaltısı yeterli teşekkürler ##### Serkan Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Ridha Jan 24, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Gd Nice and clean also friendly staff ##### Ridha Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### hosam Nov 24, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Hosam ali Best point it was in a really great place close to everythings not overcrowded but .
