Great location and cozy rooms, combined with friendly staff and great food can't overshadow my bitter experience, due to the unfair treatment. We got placed in the top floor, very next to the air-conditioner system of another hotel, so noisy that sleeping was wishful thinking. If sleeping is the purpose of booking, beware of traps! more

I stayed at this hotel 30 apr - 03 may 2009.The hotel is still updating rooms. We received a triple room on the 6th floor, very spacious, 3 separate beds, medium size bathroom, flat screen TV, coffee/tea facilities. Breakfast had a medium variety but everything fresh and tasty, and was nicely served in the breakfast room on the terrace on... more

We stayed in the Best Western Eresin Taxim hotel for 3 nights in November 2008 and found it to be a great hotel.

The staff were very friendly and the hotel reception area, bar etc were lovely. We stayed... more

My first room was a smoking room so I refused and then was given... more

However, there is construction work going on just beside the hotel. I had construction workers singing and working 5 meters from my window at... more

I recently stayed at the hotel and wanted to state that iI had a very pleasant and relaxing time. Specifically, I felt that the standard of the environment and accommodation of the hotel ensured that I was able to enjoy my time in Istanbul. The staff including the front of desk, the waiters and the cleaners all exercised a confident... more

Stayed in this hotel for 6 nights, entrance is very small and was in process of renovation, wouldn't actually imagine the hotel would be open in the state the exterior was. But staff very friendly and efficient, no complaints whatsoever with any member of staff. The room although it was clean, was one of the most outdated, reading other reviews... more

Good value in excellent location in the heart of Istanbul. 3 minute walk from the airport bus terminal at Taksim Square. 5 minutes to posh neighborhoods and easy access to business areas and tourist areas. Very attentive staff and free wireless! more
