i booked four rooms, the check in was done very fast, the quality, standard and service were for a 3 starts hotel!!! the rooms were niosy and the wifi was terrible, the breakfast was very poor. you can pay the same amount for any other 5 stars hotel. the only positive thing was the location.

This old hotel is very well located in Otorkoy area near Bosphorus bridge joining continents of Europe and Asia. Although rooms are ok, they are quite old and this hotel needs a renovation. Being right on a crowded road lot of noise comes to the room and night sleep may not be peaceful. Nothing great to write about this hotel... More

Much has been said about this hotel. I was booked here for a meeting and here goes the verdict. The rooms are OK, probably recently refurbished, but the windows must be made of the thinner aluminium and glass available. I have stayed in the 1st floor overlooking the (busy) street. Since being constantly banging the horn of the cars seems... More

There is not much I can add to the reviews here, so I will be quick... We stayed in this hotel with a large group for business, about 2 weeks. It is so noisy that is hard to sleep. We stayed in room 116, wish is a decent one compared to others that we saw from our group, big bathroom,... More

Our weekend trip to Istanbul did not start well thanks to this hotel. We changed our room three times in desperation till we found a place where we could sleep. The walls are so thin you can hear the neighbours TV and phone conversations. Our first room was beside the generator and the noise was impossible. Otherwise Istanbul was fun... More

I agree with a lot of the other reviewers, that this hotel is nowhere near a 5 star as advertised. I would give a 2 star rating. The only good thing I found were the location and staff were friendly. But the hotel needs a very serious update. We had a non-smoking room, that stunk of cigarette smoke, one day... More

I stayed here for ten days with several others for work. I read the negative reviews and, in advance, thought that the main problem was the 5 star expectation. However, this hotel was so noisy that I thought about moving out and I can't recommend it to anyone. It is on a narrow and busy road so, for many rooms,... More

The only good thing is the location, but if your room is on the road side, it's unlikely you could fall asleep before 2am. Drivers are constantly horning and the windows are not isolated at all. I am happy I only stay here for one night.

I've stayed in worse, and I've stayed in a lot better, and it was not as bad as some of the reviews make out, however, it really is not 5 star. The hotel in general is tired, probably good in it's day but could do with a complete fit out. The rooms were clean and a reasonable size, but as... More
