As soon as I booked, the hotel guest relations team reached out. I mentioned it was a short break to celebrate my wife’s birthday and requested a Bosporus view room. To my delight, we were given that dream room, even though it was normally a higher rate. The room was clean and tidy, well-maintained considering its age. The breakfast was truly 5-star quality — varied, fresh, and delicious. Staff were exceptionally friendly and professional, making us feel warmly welcomed. Specially, guest relation officer Ms Salma used to welcome us every morning and had a good chat and wellbeing. We returned home with wonderful memories of this stay. The thoughtful service and stunning view made it unforgettable

1/5 – Very Disappointing Stay We had a very bad experience at this hotel. At check-in (2:00 PM), our room was not ready, and we ended up waiting until 2:40 PM with no proper explanation or excuse. Even though I explained to the staff that we were extremely tired after an early morning flight, they simply advised us to wait in the lobby, and even suggested we order tea or coffee with extra charges!!! We had two rooms, and while one of them had the AC working perfectly, our room had no AC at all. When we asked for help, they told us the AC wasn’t working because it’s “winter time”, even though the temperature was 22°C. The funny part is that the other room had AC! We needed the AC because opening the window meant dealing with a lot of noise and mosquitoes, which made it impossible to rest. Once we finally got the room, it was far from clean, the bathroom and bathtub were dirty, the bed sheets didn’t look fresh, and even the carpets were not clean. Breakfast was another disappointment. The restaurant had dirty chairs, unclean tables, and even the tea cups were not properly washed. On top of that, our room key kept malfunctioning, and we had to pass by reception every single time to fix it. To make things worse, many staff members were rude and unprofessional. This is absolutely NOT a 5-star hotel, and I will not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Rooms were clean and nit, although missing a couple of items, s.a. tea bags and coffee, etc. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty. An unpleasant event that occurred during checkout was the receptionist trying to add a Redbull to my bill, which we did not even have in our mini-bar - hence cannot give full 5 stars. Unfortunately, this is a common issue in hotels in Turkiye.

The rooms were far too hot which meant we couldnt sleep properly. We stayed in November and for some reason there was no air con available in the rooms only heating and the rooms were stuffy and uncomfortably hot. There was also poor lighting in the rooms which made shaving and applying make up difficult. Finally there was a problem with check in on arrival which meant we were allocated a twin room rather than the king sized room we paid for. It was resolved quickly but led to a bad first impression.

The room was very run down with small damages to furniture and walls. There was possibly black mold in the bathroom behind a gap between the bathtub and wall. The room was very dark and not easy to see. We ran out of toilet paper and I had to go to the front desk twice to ask for more as no one attended after the first request. There was caulking built up along the bathtub edge to prevent water from spilling onto the ground. The bathroom counter was not very spacious. The bed was not a King size, it was a either a Queen or Double and was not very comfy. The black out curtains did not extend to all windows, so light came in from the atrium. Additionally, noise from the atrium carried through the windows into our room. We did not receive the 10% discount on spa service as the booking stated.
