Guest Reviews
- RENNA (10/5): - Excellent service
- Cemalettin (8/5): - Dieses Unterkunft liegt zentral und ist mit wenigen Gehminuten zu erreichen. Die Einrichtung ist sauber und günstig. Die Eigentümer sind freundliche,und hilfsbereit
- Saadettin (8/5): - Super Lage zu Fuß alle Sehenswürdigkeiten zu erreichen, würde ich gerne gerne weiter empfehlen
- Hazim (2/5): - Arrêtez de lire un instant ! Ceci est un appel à toute personne honnête et décente : cet hôtel (Aa Violin Boutique Hotel) n’est pas un cinq étoiles comme le laissent entendre tous les sites de réservation. C’est une arnaque, une fraude : après avoir payé la totalité de la réservation, et alors qu’il est censé être un cinq étoiles comme il est écrit, il n’en mérite même pas une. C’est un véritable désastre. Il est situé au cœur d’un quartier très ancien et les rues sont cahoteuses et inconfortables. De l’intérieur, l’hôtel ressemble à une prison. Les trois premiers jours, l’électricité a été coupée et il n’y a pas de générateur ! On vit et dort sous la chaleur et le service est très mauvais ; c’est un désastre. Je demande combien de pots-de-vin cet escroc a payé pour être classé cinq étoiles. J’aimerais savoir comment il a été assimilé à des hôtels cinq étoiles ? Combien de pots-de-vin a-t-il payé pour ça ? — Ne louez pas dans cette prison. — Arrêtez.
- Rabbia (10/5): - Amazing hotel, amazing staff esp Tuba. She was wonderful and always happy to help us. Always had a smile on her face and made us feel welcomed. The hotel is very clean and we always came home to a clean room which was wonderful Would definitely come back here again. Thank you so much for everything.
- ABDULLAH (10/5): Mükemmel - Mükemmel ötesi bir insanlık tam bir aile işletmesi
- Sadiye (6/5): - Otel tertemiz ve otel sahibi bey gayet yardimci oldu.fiyati uygun .heryere yakin bi konumda.tek kusuru tek kişilik yatağin çok kotu olmasiydi.yoksa iyi gidilebilir
- Fatma Zeynep (6/5): - Tuğba hanım çok iyi bi ev sahibi ama lağım kokusu mahvetti bizi
- Janet (10/5): - Our hostess Tuba was so helpful. Attentive to all our needs. She told us where to go for good value meals and organised our taxi when it was time to leave. Loved our time at the Violin Hotel.
- El (4/5): - Aucun service car la fille de la reception je lai vue uniquement le jour de mon départ ! Telecommande de la tele et la clim ne fonctionne pas, pas de couverture ni d'autres coussin dans le placard. Il y avait une bouilloire mais rien dautres avec ni the ni cafe RIEN. Les chambres ne sont pas insonorisé et le dernier joir jai voulu prendre une douche plus d'eau. Je ne recommande pas cet hotel.
- David (8/5): - HOTEL : L’hotel si presenta in buone condizioni, sia all’esterno che all’interno, e' di 3 piani, ma su ogni piano ci sono 3 o 4 stanze, La camera dove ho soggiornato e' sempre stata pulita (anche per quanto riguarda gli asciugamani),Pavimento in parquet, letto comodo, condizionatore presente, e avevamo anche un piccolo spazio cucina con lavandino e bollitore. le pareti della struttura e delle camere sono un po sottili (forse perche' principalmente in legno), a volte ho sentito i rumori del bagno dei vicini; e sempre alle 5:00 circa la chiamata alla preghiera che si diffondeva tra le strade, cosi come il passare di qualche nave (di quelle piu' grandi), in linea d'aria si e' molto vicini alla zona mare; NON HO USUFRUITO DELLA COLAZIONE La posizione: è abbastanza buona, si trova nel quartiere di Sultanahmet, ma leggermente fuori rispetto alla piazza principale, e' in una zona più tranquilla appena fuori dalla confusione dei locali turistici, nella parte bassa verso il mare; è comunque vicino alla fermata del tram (1 km circa) che può condurti al porto di Eminonu e in tutte le altre principali attrazioni della città. GESTORE : Salih e la signora che si occupa delle pulizie sono delle persone molto carine, ci hanno trattato benissimo e sempre sorridenti. Il nostro soggiorno di 3 notti è stato complessivamente Buono. buono anche rapporto qualità-prezzo.
- Alfonso (8/5): - Posizione strategica vicino al centro Gentilezza del personale
- Ahmet Furkan (8/5): - Saat 12.30 civari konaklama otelindeydik ve odamizi hemen verdiler teşekkür ederim. Temiz ve oda buyuklugu ideal İlgilenen Tuba hanım guler yüzlü Iki gece konakladık, ikinci gunun aksamı geldiğimizde odamiz temizlenmis ve düzenlenmişti. Fakat cay, kahve ve su ikram yenilenmemişti. Yanından marmaray geciyor onun gürültüsü cok kisa oluyor fakat gece gecmedigi icin problem olmadi. Genel anlamda memnum kaldık.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Güzel - Güzel Temiz Oda, İlgili Personel
- Halil-Ibrahim (8/5): - Sehr Nettes Personal. Der Check in sowie das Parken wie besprochen wurde sehr sorgfältig entgegengenommen. Das Bad ist leider ohne Fenster somit auch mit leichtem Schimmel. Jedoch braucht man da kein Angst haben.
- WILBY (10/5): - Excelente atención, muy amables, excelente lugar!
- Valentina (2/5): - Personale molto carino, ambiente pulito! È stato un soggiorno piacevole.
- Md Anwarul Kabir (10/5): - Small and quiet place, very clean and very helpful. We loved this place. Very close to Bluse Mosque, Hagia Sofia etc.
- SERDAR YUSUF (10/5): - Misafir bir işletme otele sabah erken gelmemize rağmen soğukta bizleri bekletmediler içeri aldılar kendilerine teşekkür ederiz
- Swetlana (10/5): - Gutes und sauberes Hotel. Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Personal. Gerne immer wieder.
- Ömer (10/5): Sauberes Hotel, Super Lage, Super Hotelbesitzer - Ich war mit meiner Frau und meinem 1 Jährigen in diesem Hotel. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber. Ich hatte das günstigste Zimmer gebucht. Diese war für 3 Personen zu klein. Die Tuba hat uns auf Verfügbarkeit ein größeres Zimmer reserviert. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber. Man kann im Hotel nebenan frühstücken. Die Dame dort super nett und hat von sich aus für meinen kleinen Omelett gekocht. Die Lage vom Hotel ist super und die Terrasse was der Hotelbesitzer Salih gezeigt hat wird demnächst geöffnet und hat ein super Ausblick aufs Meer und auf die Hagia Sophia Moschee
- Tony (10/5): - My recent stay at the Violin boutique hotel in Sultan Ahmed was truly a delightful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and exceptional service. Despite our early morning arrival, the hotel's staff was incredibly accommodating, maintaining excellent communication via WhatsApp to ensure a smooth check-in process. The room key was ready for us, complete with a passcode for easy access, allowing us to settle in promptly. The hotel's location is simply unbeatable. Nestled in the heart of the Sultan Ahmed district, it offers easy access to the city's most iconic landmarks. Within a mere 5-minute walk, we found ourselves marveling at the architectural grandeur of the Hagia Sophia, the serene beauty of the Blue Mosque, and the historical significance of the Basilica Cistern. This prime location made it effortless to explore the vibrant atmosphere and rich cultural heritage of Istanbul. Beyond its convenient location, the Violin boutique hotel also impressed with its comfortable and well-appointed accommodations. The room was clean, stylishly decorated, and provided a peaceful retreat after a day of sightseeing. The staff's attentiveness and friendliness made us feel truly valued and ensured that our stay was as comfortable as possible. Thank you so much for everything!
- Thomas (10/5): - The staff and the owner were very attentive to our needs. Very hospitable.
- Özlem (10/5): - Sehr empfehlenswert ,waren zu dritt super hotel preisleistung für die gegend sehr günstig Zimmer mit Klimaanlage und sehr sauber Ps. Jederzeit wider
- Ahmet (4/5): - Tren hattının yanında bir otel. Her tren geçtiğinde odada sallandık durduk. Yatağımız gıcırdayıp duruyor ve hiç rahat değildi. Odalarda ikramlık tek kullanımlık çay kahveler olur normalde. Burada mevcut değildi. Olumlu yanlarına gelirsek oda genel olarak temizdi. Resepsiyon güleryüzünlü ve ilgiliydi.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Gayet güzeldi. Resepsiyondaki hanımefendi bize çok yardımsever davrandı ve seçtiğimiz paketten daha iyi bir oda verdi. Yakınlarda tren istasyonu olmasına rağmen oldukça sessizdi ve lokasyon oldukça güzeldi
- Peter Paul (6/5): - ...
- Sarah (8/5): - Manque de fiabilité en ce qui concerne la réservation en elle même. Nous sommes arrivés tard le soir avec notre bébé et nous n’avons pas pu accéder à notre chambre alors que nous avions réservé et payer sur internet. On a été loger 2 nuits dans un autre hôtel à côté sans frais, puis on a été replacer à Violin boutique par la suite. Remballer ses affaires fut assez fatiguant lorsque l’on a un bébé.. Pour compenser le dérangement nous avons été placés en chambre avec vue sur mer. Le personnel s’est excusé pour le dérangement. On souligne le manque de gestion et d’accueil à l’arrivé.
- Mahrez (10/5): Séjour culturel - C'était trés agréable, j'ai beaucoup apprécié mon séjour à Istanbul.
- süleyman (10/5): Konaklama - Turistik bölgelere yürüme mesafesinde butik güzel bir oteldi.Personele ilgisinden dolayı teşekkür ederim
- M. Ozge (10/5): - It is in very decent and quiet location. Very close to sultanahmet square and the seacoast. The owner of the hotel is a very helpful and polite gentleman. We didnt have ant problem during our stay of 2 nights.
- Erkan (8/5): 5/4 - Otel temiz güzel güvenli nezih bir aile oteli. Personel yardımcı oluyor iyi insanlar.. Yalnızca duş arızalıydı ve odalarda su, tek kullanımlık terlik vb. bulunmaması negatif bir durum..
- Harvinder (10/5): - Very friendly welcome, we arrived early but the hotel next door work together with Violin so they took our bags until it was time to check in. Housekeeping was very good. Own key for the outside door meant easy come easy go. Would have loved a kettle in the room though the owner did offer to make tea anytime. Aircon worked very well and fridge was useful.
- Murat (10/5): - Great location for easy access to sultanahmet. The tram from there will get you to most popular locations. The hotel is clean, staff are polite.
- LILIBETH (10/5): Excellent - We stay 3 nights there. The Hotel management was helpful. Room was clean and tidy. Seriously recommend. Thanks for everything guy's.
- Farzad (10/5): - Vriendelijke familie
- Yahya (10/5): - A very nice hotel, it is beautiful and I would recommend it
- George (8/5): Nice sea view - Everything ok. Staff amazing and so friendly and respectful, my booking was for economy room and that was on ground floor but they gave me on second floor with sea view which was amazing The only think i never like in business family which live in the same building with guests, is always noisy in the building for people who spend more time in the room, Shutting doors or calling each other so loud. Especially small buildings
- Ahmad Said (2/5): - Das Zimmer hat komplett nach Kanalisation gestunken. Dann sagen sie zu uns, wir sollen das Klopapier nicht in der Toilette runterspülen da sich sonst die Toilette verstopft. Das Klopapier soll in ein Eimer neben dran. Wir haben keine Nacht da verbracht und ein anderes Hotel gebucht. Für die 7 Tage haben wir keine Erstattung bekommen. Vielleicht sollten sie in der Beschreibung angeben dass das Zimmer stinkt und die Toilette nicht richtig benutzt werden kann.
- Mehmet Akif (10/5): Thank You - Dear violin hotel team, me and my wife would like to thank you very much for the nice reception and the farewell. The Hotel owner and his team looked after us very well during our stay and were always helpful. We booked the hotel room for two nights. It was very spacious, clean and the decor of the room was very modern. The bed was comfortable and the highlight was definitely the rain shower. We will definitely book this hotel again for our next trip to Istanbul. Best regards
- AYCAN (2/5): - I worked 8 years as hotelier and i have been 40 different countries in the world but i have never seen Terrible hotel like that I made an online reservation and been there really late at night they check me in after 2 min staff come to my room and told us that we have to check out because we are not married in addition this info was nowhere not on the Expedia not in the hotel reservation info and hotel owner called his daughter and she gave me the phone and he and her daughter told me bad words I DONT RECOMMEND THIS HORRIBLE HOTEL PLEASE CHOOSE OTHER ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!! otherwise you will be in trouble !!!!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Sehr schönes Hotel in einer top Lage, einen Katzensprung vom Sultan Ahmet Platz. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und werden täglich gründlichst gereinigt. Am Empfang wurden wir von dem Hotelbesitzer persönlich empfangen. Dieser hat uns jeden Tag neue Sehenswürdigkeiten und schöne Orte empfohlen wo wir hin gehen können. Abends kam auch der Besitzer mit Kaffee und Tee zum Rauchen vor dem Hotel und man hat sich nett unterhaltet. Alles in einem ein sehr schönes Hotel. Bei der nächsten Reise definitiv mein Favorit.
- Diana (10/5): Very nice and cute - Very nice, comfortable and clean! Very very friendly staff! Good location. The owner is always ready to help. I'll advise!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Gefallen hat mir die familiäre Atmosphäre. Der Hotelbesitzer ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Er gibt von sich aus nützliche Informationen. Ich werde wiederkommen und das Hotel weiterempfehlen.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Der Gastgeber Salih ist sehr freundlich und hilft mir alles was er kann. Das Zimmer ist auf laufsbstand nach viele Sehenswürdigkeiten wie die Grand Bazaar und Aya Sofia . Sehr gute Unterkunft fur ein niedrige Preis .
- Chaima (10/5): - J’ai passer un excellent séjour Salli a su bien nous accueillir et a était à notre service tout le long du séjour il nous a donner des bonnes adresses avec un bon rapport qualités prix , les chambres était très propre et bien équipés enfin l’hôtel est très bien situé à 5 min de la mosquée bleu à pied
- Hasan (10/5): - Güzel temiz ve ilgili bir yer. Tavsiye ederim
- Mustafa (8/5): Goede service voor een goede prijs - Goed geholpen en geadviseerd, heb een grotere en betere kamer gekregen dan ik had gereserveerd. Kamer is elke dag netjes schoongemaakt wat zeker in deze Corona tijd een pluspunt is. Qua locatie ligt het iets minder toegankelijk door verbouwingen maar je bent binnen 5 minuten op het Sultanahmet plein, hou wel rekening met dat je een paar heuvels op moet lopen, Verder erg centraal.
- Daniel (10/5): - Very good hotel. Close to the center The price is unbeatable
- Alla (10/5): Very very good violin hotel! We will return ! - This hotel was very good, we was happy here, very friendly director and very cute wife, thanks for all, we will return here, and recommended for friends.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Hotellet var mycket bra för weekend resor, det är ett litet hotell med en väldigt liten reception, rummet var litet med en stor och bekväm säng med bra täcke och kudde, schysst badrum, man fick oxå egen vattenkokare och tepåsar om man ville dricka det innan läggdags eller på morgonen. Som ovan skrivet perfekt för den som kommer spendera större delen av tiden ute. Det som kan vara värt att känna till är att det saknas hiss, det är trevlig personal på 2 personer som verkligen ville vara behjälpliga. Området kändes tryggt och nära Sultan Ahmet men ändå off.
- Jamshid (10/5): A nice and memorable place to stay - I booked the room with the sea view for my parents and they absolutely loved it there. The room was clean and comfortable and they had this nice view of Bosphorus which they could enjoy the sunrise. Moreover, the location is so great and you will have access to the old city as well as nice restaurants within walking distances. Be careful about the stairs though if you are taking your big luggage with you, you might ask for some help as the staircase is a bit narrow but it doesn't bother at all :) All in all it was a very nice place for its price for sure.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 3 flights of stairs . very nice good sized room with sea views
