Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
A poor Sofitel experience, lack of staff at the reception, smelly corridors and rooms, the building is really getting old. The rooms are large and location is good.
Everywhere was clean.Staff were very courteous but need training to work less stressful. Breakfast room was almost everyday chaotic with no management for guests seating. Food and fruits were in abundance and floor managers were in panic attack modes. Hammam was clean and the masseuse was excellent. We will definitely use this location for our next stay in Istanbul.
Stayed for 10 days at this property and overall highly recommended as it’s close to many popular sites, dining and shopping. Hotel staff is very hospitable and ensured a very comfortable visit throughout. Thank you
The hotel was in a super convenient locations but was still beautiful and the staff were anttentive and friendly. The spa was really relaxing and offered a wide variety of treatments
Location is great, all the staff are wonderful especially concierge, breakfast manager and cleaning staff (Aung🙏). We did have a couple of incidents (guests being extremely disrespectful and noisy at night) and feel the situation could have been handled better. We were able to speak to the GM about this and he was very kind, professional and helpful.
