Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is not living up to its five-star reputation with old rooms that smell of cigarettes and limited staff availability, but it is located in a busy area close to the Bosphorus with amazing views.
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms were spacious with all amenities and offered a wonderful view of the bridge and a glimpse of the Bosphorus. The service was friendly, except for a minor incident with an imaginary tax. The location was amazing right by the Bosphorus, but the traffic could be a hassle. The dining experience was top-notch, especially the breakfast. Overall, a great hotel with some minor drawbacks.
The hotel is ideally located in Ortakoy, right on the Bosphorus, surrounded by coffee shops and restaurants with stunning sea views. The rooms are well-kept and clean, though some maintenance issues were noticeable. The service from the front desk manager was exceptionally supportive and welcoming, guiding me on the best options in Istanbul. The dining experience, while the staff made efforts, lacked variety. Overall, a beautiful location with friendly service, despite some room issues and limited dining choices.
The hotel is located right on the bustling road, which can be a bit noisy due to heavy traffic, but the double bed room I stayed in was much better and spacious with all necessary amenities. The pricing, however, seemed a bit on the higher side.
The hotel's location directly on the sea and close to restaurants made our stay memorable. The rooms were spacious and lovely, although they showed signs of wear and could use more thorough cleaning. The service was a mix of experiences, with one staff member standing out positively. The dining options offered delicious food, especially with a view of the Bosphorus.
