The hotel was clean and modern. The breakfast was varied but would have helped if it was until 11am not just 10.30. Breakfast was instant coffee and instant juices from the machine so for a quality coffee drinker, that could be an issue. My favourite staff full of positivity and helpfulness was Ahmet and Betul the interns for their amazing smiling and sweet personalities as well as the staff generally in reception such as Veysi, Dogan and guys working in the espresso bar.

Great experience at The Public. Great staff, comfortable space the breakfast in the morning at many different options. The hotel is centrally located in Taksim so it was easy to get around the city. Great restaurants and shopping very close by an easy walk or taxi to various sites. I highly recommend it. I had a great stay.

Excellent hotel and great value

Great location, very friendly staff. The hotel was very clean and had a great breakfast selection although those expecting a full English will be disappointed but they cater to the international traveller. Extremely good value for money. The location is also excellent upon arrival our concerns where it may be noises however the room was extremely quiet and great air con too. Would definitely return.
