Guest Reviews

- OZDEN (10/5): - Konumu harika, odalar temiz ve son derece rahattı. Personel çok ilgili ve yardımcıydı. İstanbul'da merkezi ve güvenilir bir konaklama arayanlara kesinlikle tavsiye ederim.
- Stepan (10/5): Крутое место в Стамбуле . Транспорт и развлечения рядом - Местоположение супер, 5 минут до метро. Есть кафе и где погулять Нет
- عراقي (8/5): -
- aalilou (8/5): شكرا لكم جميعا - المكان قريب من تقسيم و قريب من الحافلات التي تقل الى المطار صبيحة و اسطانبول الموظفون طبيون جدا
- Aleksandar (10/5): - На супер удобно и комникативно място
- Mustafa (7/5): -

- Mehraban (7/5): -
- Azza (5/5): - قرب المسافه ماينظفون و قفل الباب خربان ماتستوي البطاقه و عطونا مفتاح و الغرفه صغيره
- فهيد (1/5): لن تتكرر ولا انصح بها - السرير مريح المكيف لايعمل وازعاج الطريق لايوجد عزل للصوت والغرفة ضيقة جداً والحمام ضيق ضيق جدا جدا 👎👎👎👎
- Balnur (8/5): - Очень понравился отель, удобная локация в Таксиме, всё рядом. При этом внутри тихо, можно нормально отдохнуть.
Номер уютный, чистый, есть всё необходимое.
Отдельно хочу сказать спасибо персоналу, заселили меня в 2 часа ночи, хотя заезд был только днём. Для меня это было очень важно.
В целом осталась довольна, с удовольствием вернусь снова Скорее нюанс чем минус — номера небольшие, но для соло путешествия идеально 👍🏻
- Safwan (10/5): - It was lovely and cozy stay for me. Staff is very nice:)
- Omaima (10/5): -

- Samin (8/5): - I liked the view of my room and how clean and cozy it was. There was a bar there too, but it seemed that no one was ever there. All in all, I really liked my room. I wish the staff were more present. I had to leave the hotel at 7 am in the morning and there was no one at the counter so I just left the room key and left...
- Mysaloon (8/5): - נגישות לכיכר תקסים חדר קצת קטן
- ABDEL KARIM (2/5): - The room was not clean. There was no toilet paper in the bathroom. The pillowcase was torn. There was no remote control for the air conditioner, and whenever we wanted to turn it on, we had to contact the staff and wait for them to come and turn it on. The elevator kept malfunctioning, wouldn’t close properly, and took a long time to operate. There was also an unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom. Overall, a disappointing experience

- katamadze (10/5): -

- Abdelaziz (1/5): اوسخ فندق شفته والتعامل وايد سيء - ولا شي التعامل وسخ والفندق وسخ ومافي اي احترام ولا متوفر عندهم اي شي واللي اسمه عرفان شخص سيئ جدا وتعامله مثل المنافق والغرفة وسخه وحتى الفوطه وسخه والحمام وسخ حرام الواحد يسكن فيه والله
لا يتوفر اي شي عندهم
- Khassirath (5/5): OUR Turkish travel - I liked the location and the staff were really Nice What my famille didnt like was the wifi it was like humming bird disconnecting every second in my opinion you should change the internet
- Nataliia (8/5): На одну ніч залишитися можна - Зручне розташування біля площі Таксім Занадто маленька кімната , може для одної людини без речей підійде.
- abdulaziz (8/5): - الموظفين رائعين وأخص بالذكر الأخت حسيبه و الأخ عرفان متعاونين جداً وأسلوبهم راقي بصراحة

الغرف صغيرة
- Imane (9/5): A perfect stay thanks to the welcoming staff! - I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is perfect — close to everything I needed and very convenient for exploring the area. What made my experience truly special was the staff: they were welcoming, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. Their kindness and professionalism made me feel at home. I would definitely recommend this hotel and look forward to staying here again.
- Zainab (4/5): - Comfy room and great location. Breakfast was terrible. There are no options to pick from. Also, some bedroom facilities were broken.
- Irina (8/5): -
- Mahmut Sami (10/5): - Güzeldi
- Mustafa (10/5): -
- Isa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Maher (5/5): Disappointing stay - Location The room was cleaned, but not properly. They only changed the trash bags and brought tissues nothing more. The room never felt really clean.
The service at the reception was bad. The guy who worked in the evening was always angry and not welcoming at all. Only the girl at reception smiled and was friendly.
Also, the internet connection was very weak and slow most of the time.
I really hope they improve their service.
- Admir (4/5): A Masterclass in How Not to Run a Hotel - Location. If you enjoy being ignored by staff, torn towels, and identical, lifeless breakfast trays with no water or juice – you’ll love it here. Bonus: late-night asphalt drilling outside your window. After 20+ years on Booking, this is my most disappointing stay. Zero warmth, zero service, zero reason to return.
- Soltan (10/5): Exceptional - The hotel is perfect, clear, everything is nearby. Some people claimed that it’s a bit noisy here, but in my own case I was sleeping very deep every day of the trip. Who knows, maybe that’s due to beer😀
- Cristi (8/5): Very good - Great location, great staff.
Spent the night here, between two long haul flights. The rooms are small, nothing bad about them otherwise.
- Eman (10/5): I will come again to stay - Everything is great Location , staff
- Acca (5/5): good location, good rooms, nice service, whereas my stay there was very limited one day only - Breakfast was nicel, location awesome good location with reasonable rates
- Rashad (2/5): Don’t loss anything in this hotel - I’ve forgotten 4 expansive shirts in the cabinet and their cleaner did not bother himself to check with me if I’ve lost anything . I tried to contact the owners on WhatsApp and they did not respond as well.
- Arslan (10/5): Exceptional - Very goOd location near the metro station !
Staff is very goOd ..
roOm condition is very cleen but the washroom is very small .
- Abdelmahdi (8/5): - Bien
- Hind (8/5): Greit - Fint hotel med flott beliggenhet, men dårlig internett av og til og renhold er ikke bra. Håndklær er ikke helt rene og litt gule. Kopper ble ikke byttet i hele 11 dager vi var der. Da vi spurte om å bytte den så sier housekeeper at vi kan bare vaske den.. veggene er slitte og trenger å vaskes
- Verified traveler (4/5): - The picture in Internet is very nice, but when you walk in room is very small, bathroom is very small, shower area very tiny and you can’t hear the noise from this room to other room people other room when they have conversation you can hear it. It’s very loud and also street noise from front and behind the hotel very loud. It’s hard to get sleep. Basically I wouldn’t recommend it.
- Ercan (4/5): - Otel konum olarak iyi bir yerde. Odalar küçük, servis kalitesi orta. Sabah kahvaltı sorduğumuzda cıkış yapacak mısınız diye sormaları ilginçti. Klimaların kumandasını yazın verdiklerini söylediler. TV yalnızca YouTube izleyebiliyorsunuz. Genel olarak vasat üstü bir otel
- Elbouzi (10/5): Clean confortable best location - Location is the best also the person is very friendly All thing good
- Mercede (7/5): Good - The location was very convenient and everything was available. It was clean enough. The bathroom was old and very small compared to the entire room. The internet kept disconnecting and reconnecting. The breakfast consisted mostly of cheese and there was no way to choose what I liked the most. They set the amount themselves.
- Isa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alan (9/5): Joy - Location and helpfulness of staff. Nothing
- Omar (10/5): Good - they were nice to me and i loved the room
- Ahmed (8/5): Nice hotel - Excellent location, Good hotel for short stay
- Petros (7/5): Pleasant stay, good breakfast - Location was ideal. Everything is literally very close. Also breakfast was ok for the price. They allow us late check out which was very convenient. The noise from the street. In the middle of the night we listened arguments from the street. Also we listened the horns for the cars all night long. We used earplugs so we could sleep. I think they need to sort things out about that. Also I believe a small renovation is needed.
- Olga (10/5): The best hotel next to Taxim, at a good price -
- Meheddine (8/5): Very good - Location of the hotel is very good, near taksim maydan and istiklal street and the metro station,
Much restaurants nearby, The 1st floor has to much noise from the street,
Even the barman when preparing the breakfast drinks is noisy you hear every thing,
We stayed 2 nights 3 days the second day they didnt clean the room
- Syed (8/5): - Everything was good
- George (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great. The rooms are small, but it is clean. It was peaceful and there was no noise, even though it was New Year's. For a short stay it is perfect for this amount. I recommend!
- İsmail (10/5): I like to stay joy hotel i will book next year again. - Location hotel very good, stuf very kind.
- Amna (8/5): Very good -
- Amna (8/5): Very good -
- Rodrigo (6/5): - A few steps away form Taksim Square, the metro and very close to Istiklal Caddesi.
- Krasen (8/5): Very good -
- Khan (9/5): Great experience, the location was outstanding as all public transport was just 2 min walk away. - Breakfast was good, it was not buffet though but was valuable. Location was also good. The attendant should improve their english language that was a lil problem only. It was cold in Istanbul so ACs were off.
- Val (10/5): Exceptional - I liked the proximity of the Taksim place with the metro station, the Taksim Mosque with the athan, the call to prayer from the minaret and the famous Istiklal street and all the bars and restaurants arround, just wonderful, as well as the Hava-Buses running to both airports only two blocks down from Tasksim place for 210 tl👍😊 I didn't like the dirt in the streets near the hotel and the Döner fast food shops all around the Hotel area. In the end, I was sick from this meat smell day and night long and it came even in my room, when I opened the window.
- Shukri (7/5): Good - Location Sometimes noisy during late night
- Oliver (7/5): Location is great but it could be cleaner, staff is great - location is great it wasn’t so clean, it was dusty, small bathroom
- Ali (9/5): Superb -
- Dina (7/5): Pleasent stay, can not complaint honestly as most of the time we were out. - The stay in this hotel was average stay, the rooms and the bathroom are so small, cleanness was average, no extra services in the hotel like breakfast or spa but it was fine with us. The most remarkable thing in this hotel is the location so close from everything which was perfect and the staff were so helpful and friendly. Would definitely visit again but maybe in a suite for more space in the rooms. Room space and cleanness not so high standards
- Zaid (8/5): Very good -
- Tsoler (7/5): Good -
- Ata (7/5): Good - Could be more cleaner
- Soufiane (8/5): Nice stay - The hotel is located in a very strategic place, near to the metro/tram/bus startions
- Imane (9/5): Awesome! - I love this place. It's my second time choosing it for my stay in Istanbul. The hotel is conveniently located near everything, and the staff is outstanding.
- Reema (9/5): Superb -
- Yigit (10/5): Güzel - Resepsiyondaki hanımefendi çok ilgiliydi , hiç sorun yaşamadık. Lokasyon çok iyi. Tavsiye ederim.
- Zac (8/5): Very good - Location and cleanliness
- Jamshed (10/5): It was excellent , near to restaurents, shops and metro - Staff at reception including breakfast serving staff were nice and always available to support and guide.
- cem (10/5): Harika! - Taksim'de ulaşımın çok rahat olduğu. Temiz ve konforlu odalarında. Güler yüzle misafirlerini agirlamakta. Çok memnun kaldım
Yeri sebebiyle doğal olarak bir miktar gürültülü olabiliyor. Rahatsız olanlar kulak tıkacı ile rahat edecektir.
Otel Yönetime tavsiye: Ses için odalarda tek kullanımlık sünger kulak tıkacı verilebilir. Avrupa'da ses yalıtımsız binalarda sunuluyor müthiş faydalı.
Tekrar görüşmek dileğiyle sevgiler.
- Youssef (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and nice staff Clean and near to istiqlal streets
- Grace (5/5): Passable - The Hotel is 1 min walk from istiklal street. Variety of restaurants, cafes and shops available. The room is very small. Toilet super small. Breakfast is not a buffet (Not mentioned on site) just a plate with very little amounts and it’s the same every day.
- Levan (8/5): Very good -
- Algimantas (10/5): - Great central location, bit noisy at night but we managed to sleep through most of the taxi horns. Close to airport bus and all public transport. We stayed 2 nights and it was fine.
- Karmand (8/5): VERY GOOD LOCATION-FREINDLY STAFF- I LIKED IT - SMALL BATH ROOM
