Guest Reviews

• Mike (6/5): - Dejligt stille område i Istanbul. Rengøringen kunne være noget bedre, og man skulle bede om den daglige rengøring. Men ellers et ok hotel til billige penge, hvis man bare skal have et sted at sove.
• tanveerraval (2/5): Phew - It's not centrally located, I did not get to meet the host, the room was very bad, it didn't feel that safe either. Javed, the care taker was really good. There are better places to stay. It was not the easiest to get here from Taksim.
• ali ekber (2/5): Rezaletttt - Rezalett Odaya yerlestikten sonra tv nin calismadigini soylediler odayi degistirmek gibi bi tekliftede bulunmadilar, wc den yogun bi gider kokusu geliyodu zor uyuduk yerler duvar koseleri pislik toz icindeydi yatagin alti tabaka baglamis hatta cop olarak sigara paketi bile vardi,bir daha asla tercih etmeyecegim bi yer.
• Ugur (8/5): - Good for the price. Nice personel. Good restaurant and caffes around.
• nur (10/5): guzel - Otelimizi sevdik bundan sonraki adresimiz burası olur çünkü rahat ve huzurluydu kendi evimiz gibi :)
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Very good location. Staff are very helpful. Clean . Good size for 2-3 people
• PhilD197 (4/5): Badly managed - While the rooms are quite nicely renovated they are badly managed. A moldy shower dirty construction in the building already put us off a bit. But it turned out the management is incompetent and unrespectful. We were told that they had overbooked and litterally just told us „sorry you have to leave“ half way through our booked stay. They were not accomodating at all and really ruined our trip.
• NilaSadira (10/5): Wonderful Stay! - I have stayed here last month with my friend. The location of this hotel is walking distance to the famous Galata Tower. The hotel is clean and we felt really comfortable when staying there. Will definitely stay here again for my next visit.
• chantal19652016 (8/5): Comfort of a room with private kitchenette in calm(er) area of Istanbul, close to tram for your Istanbul exploration - Stayed in ARX Suites from 7 to 12 Sept 2016. The room -with private kitchenette- TV, bathroom (with shower) was neat and offered all the comfort my friend and I needed: privacy, comfort of deciding whether to eat breakfast in or out, most important: a calm(er) area of Istanbul vs. the busy and noisy Sultanahmet where we had stayed in another hotel + comfort of having a tram stop at very close distance (from where we started our day trips). If you do not require five star luxury but prefer a neat room that offers all comfort without exuberant luxury, ARX is the place! Furkan, the hotel manager, is extremely helpful and will assist with advice where possible. One of us unfortunately felt somewhat ill (wrong choice of restaurant); Furkan checked upon his 'patient' several times during the day, volunteered to call a doctor... is really taking care of his guests! He made sure our transfer to Atatürk airport was smoothly organised (Furkan works only with drivers and taxi companies he considers trustworthy...and who do not charge any crazy price). Take time to get to know Furkan! He will enjoy a chat with anyone who has a genuine interest in (t)his beautiful city and the many things it has to offer. Staying with Furkan felt like staying in the house of family. The lively discussions about shared passions, about politics, his caring attitude... it all makes Furkan a very nice host. I will not doubt: when returning to Istanbul, I will get in touch with Furkan :-)
• lauraruhe (10/5): Great hotel - We stayed at the Arx Suites for 5 days and there's nothing to complain about. It was clean (and looked exactly like on the pictures) and the staff was friendly. The hotel is perfectly located for visiting everything you would like to and mostly you don't even need to use the bus or metro. If I'll come back to Istanbul one day, I would definitely stay there again!
• batakoja (10/5): Perfectly cozy place in lovely Beyoglu - The owner welcomed us on check in. Location is great, very easy to be reached by tram or metro, very close to Galata tower and 5-10 minutes by walk to Taksim, at the same time, quiet residential area that we much enjoyed. Apartment was very nice, spacious, nicely furnished with minimalist modern furniture, small but nicely equiped kitchen (a coffee maker, toaster, microwave, fridge...) & very comfortable bed. We even had a nice small back yard for our usage: great option for coffee & a smoke outside in the yard + some feline friends coming over:) A great experience overall, we would surely be visiting again in future!
• sKris (10/5): Great place - Great place to stay a few nights and explore Istanbul. the owners/staff are very friendly and informative. The rooms are spacious and clean and are equipped with everything you might need. the location is also out of the typical tourist path, however still close enough to be able and explore with a child.
• fourcolourblack (10/5): Great apartment in the heart of creative Istanbul - We stayed for a whole week in The Arx Suites and found it just delightful. Perfectly situated five minutes walk from Galata Tower, which is the start of the massive creative district of Beyoğlu. Staying and eating on the north side of the bridge here is highly recommended as we didn't run short of places in 6 days. You could explore forever. Its also right beside Tophane Metro, which 15 minutes to get to the Old Town and visit all the main tourist sites. This only costs 4TYL (90p). The room itself was massive for the two of us. A kitchenette came in very handy, and the bathroom is finished to a very high standard. A huge waterfall shower and walk in wet area was pleasant and so much better than a bath. Even a balcony, albeit internal facing. Lastly the owners were most helpful. They arranged our free airport transfer from the airport, and taxi to the airport on leaving. They were both available by simply calling from the phone inside by the front door. You won't be disappointed by booking Arx Suites. The location, rooms, or service.
• Brigitte156 (10/5): Perfect apartment and perfect customer services...in Istanbul - Found this perfect apartment, in the perfect location for our 6 nights stay after reading many reviews and consulting many travelling sites...WOW was the first thing that came to my mind upon our arrival... Historical building with exposed bricks and lots of charm... fully remodeled and very comfortable... Very close to the tram and directly in front of a nice little café perfect for breakfast...Furkam the owner had a bad news for us after 1 night spent there ...he had to upgrade the heating-AC system and had to move us to an other property he owned... upgrading us to a 4 stars hotel in a suite with Bosphore view !!!! That is call GOOD customer services...!!!! Would go back to the Arx Suites in a heartbeat...Fell in love with this hotel...and its nice location... and nice owner and his brother...
• KJpocaspalabras (10/5): Cozy room in good location - When we were first dropped off by the airport taxi, I was a bit nervous because the hotel was located in an alley and up a flight of stairs. Once we explored the city, this was such a great location- close to the tram, Galata Tower, Istiklal Street, and a 10 minute walk from the Karaokoy metro. The staff was super accommodating and friendly. There are only 4 rooms, so book in advance. You do have to climb a somewhat narrow staircase to get to your room. Though they don't serve breakfast, there is a great cafe/restaurant directly across the street. We would definitely stay here again.
• MissWanderlustCA (10/5): Fantastic service, beautiful room, good location - Spent seven nights at Arx Suites at the end of a month long Europe trip. Finding a place to stay in Istanbul in our budget was a bit of a challenge and we're very glad we found this one! The location is good, a five minute walk from Galata Tower and a two minute walk from the tram. There are two cafes right beside the suites and a few small grocers nearby if you need to pick up bottled water or breakfast items. The immediate neighbourhood is very quiet. We booked a two person historical suite but were upgraded upon arrival to a bigger room on the top floor. The room is absolutely gorgeous and looks just as good as it does on their website - exposed brick walls, huge shower, white linens, a generous kitchenette area, daybed and seating area. Upon arrival my husband and I met the owner, Furkan, and his business partner, as well as Bulent, who would end up taking care of us for the whole week. Every time we would return from exploring the city, he would be there to say hello and offer us coffee or tea, which he would then trek all the way up to our room, sometimes with cookies or fruit or other yummy snacks. If we ever had a question he was there to help us, and was always smiling and friendly. He made our stay at Arx Suites extra special for sure. Although I gave this property five stars, there were two negatives that should be improved upon if at all possible. I am a light sleeper and I found the bed to be lumpy and uneven and i could feel springs poking into my body. The first few nights were especially rough as my body tried to get used to it. It was also hard to connect to and/or stay connected to the wifi. Sometimes the connection would drop while we were using the internet, and sometimes the correct network wouldn't be available on the list. Not a huge deal generally, but we were there for a week and had to check up on several things we wanted to do, maps, etc., so it could get a little bit frustrating. I would not hesitate to recommend Arx Suites and hope to stay again someday!
• Steffiil (10/5): Highly recommended - Very cosy and clean apartement, great location, warm and helpful service. Bülent is the best host! Amazing breakfast in the cafe just across the street. We've been very satisfied. We'll make sure to come back next year.
• christinegH4791CO (10/5): Great staff and location - I thoroughly enjoyed my week-long stay at Arx Suites. I was in Istanbul for a conference, and it was delightful to have a bit more space than the average hotel provides. The owner and staff were very helpful, making sure I had everything I needed each day. There great cafes/restaurants and markets very nearby, with Galata Tower (and even more dining/shopping options) just a short 5 minute walk from the hotel. I felt very safe and secure throughout my stay.
• Gravel2 (8/5): Cool digs for night crawlers - Very comfortable and quiet hotel,more like a house- my husband, children and I stayed there with my parents., brother and wife, and two of our friends- this was a perfect place to catch up on our sleep. Very capable and thoughtful staff.
• CeciliaYeom (10/5): Beautiful place and perfect location - Location of Arx suites is perfect for istanbul tour. T1 Tophane tram station, Galata Tower and istiklal street are only 3~10 min from the hotel. The room was very beautiful, clean and comfortable for us. I really thanks to furkan who is the owner of this hotel. We could be there comfortably because of his kindness. If I visit istanbul again, I will stay in Arx suites. 호텔 위치가 이스탄불 관광하기에 딱 좋은곳이에요. 구시가지까지 가는 트램이 집 앞에 바로 있고(술탄아흐멧 역까지 대략 10-15분) 갈라타 브리지, 갈라타 타워, Istiklal 거리(탁심)가 도보로 5-10분 정도 거리에 있어요. 방도 깨끗하고 주인 아저씨도 엄청 친절하고, 덕분에 편하게 지내다가 왔어요.
• tinygirl83 (8/5): Nice hotel on the right side of town - We decided to stay in Galata after two sets of friends recommended the area. We were a little apprehensive given that it's further away from Sultanahmet and other tourist attractions. But we soon realized it was the absolute right choice. Arx suites is in a little alleyway but it's only 2 minutes from Tophane metro stop -- and a 10 minute ride to Sultanahmet. It's a 7-minute walk to all the great restaurants in the Galata area and about a 15-minute walk to Istiklal street. Being so close to Beyoglu and Cehangir gives you the opportunity to experience hip, trendy, young Istanbul, far from the tourist traps of the old city. Our room was beautiful -- exposed brick with wonderful, luxurious furnishings. However, it's best to remember that this is a small operation. The staff don't speak English and if you have any questions, you may have to call up the owner. There's also no breakfast, but that just gives you the opportunity to eat the most incredible breakfasts in the restaurants around. If you don't ask them to clean your room, they won't. So remember to ask!
• tahitiiti (8/5): Nearly perfect - Don't expect the Hyatt, but let me tell you, the Hyatt's location is easily beaten by the Arx Suites! 3 min to Galata Tower and beyond, 3 min to the tram (direct access to Sultanahmet), 10 min to the Golden Horn - very friendly staff, 24 hr reception, you get your own key, kitchennette and a local convenience store nearby (selling snacks, wine and beer), backyard. Nicely set in an old townhouse (in case you were wondering what they look like inside). The renovation looks a bit DIY, but that kind of fits the place. Nicely redone bath-rooms. So why only nearly perfect? Our sink's drain pipe wasn't installed properly and smelled a bit. I could live with it. Worse was my mother complaining daily. Hence only nearly perfect. I'd stay there any time again. Much better location than Conrad or Hyatt...and I did stay there before. I want access to public transport when in Istanbul - especially since it improved greatly!
• Kkaterinaa (10/5): Perfect place - We had a trip in Istanbul for several days in June, 2014 and stayed in this hotel. Very comfortable and cozy place to live. We had a big room, like a little flat with bathroom and kitchen. Every morning we had a perfect breakfast in the garden. Very attentive service. The owner of the hotel is a very kind man, he have as a map, explained how to get to different places, gave some advise about shopping malls. Location of the hotel is also very comfortable, you go out, tram station is 1 minute away, and get wherever you want. I can advice this nice place for those who want to come in the evening and relax like at home.
• sandra_wright (10/5): Excellent accommodation, service and location!! - Arx Suites studio apartments are spread over 3 floors of a lovely old house which has been converted into chic, contemporary accommodation, with lots of exposed brick and natural wood. My husband and I stayed for 4 nights in the family suite - we had booked a double room but were upgraded on arrival, which was a nice surprise. The room is on the ground floor and faces onto the small shared courtyard garden (rustic-style and very cute) at the rear of the house so is a little dark, but is stylish, spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. The bathroom was also pristine, with a huge shower cubicle, and was well-stocked with toiletries. We found the location perfect, 2 mins from Tophane metro stop, 5 mins uphill walk to Galata Tower and 10 mins uphill (steep) to Istiklal Cadessi. There are a few traditional local restaurants and some small shops for essentials such as tea and coffee just around the corner - and a brand new contemporary-style coffee shop directly opposite. Furkan contacted us immediately after we made our booking with all the necessary information and was very helpful - he made advance restaurant reservations for us which made sure we could get into Ciya Sofrasi on our first night and the meyhane of our choice on the Saturday. Service during our stay was excellent, thanks again to Furkan and the ever-smiling Bulent. We were given free morning coffee (twice), a meal of meatballs, salad and bread on the Sunday evening and coffee while we waited for our transfer back to the airport. We loved our stay in Arx Suites and will definitely be returning next time we visit Istanbul. Thank you Furkan and Bulent for a lovely welcome and a very enjoyable stay.
• DoraK400 (10/5): Beautiful and large suite!!!!!!? - We enjoyed our stay. The staff was very friendly, polite and helpful. The room had enough space and was fully renovated. Άρωμα άλλης εποχής σε ενα ανακαινισμένο ¨ελληνικό αρχοντικο¨ , πραγματικά υπέροχη διαμονή!!!!!
