Nadiah (10/5): اقامه رائعة - الموقع جدا ممتاز والموظفون جداا خدومين لاشي
Valeriya (7/5): - Хотелът се намира близко до метростанция , в близост има места за хранене - добро обслужване. За закуската можеда се желае повече, но ние бяхме само 3-4 стаи и може би това имаше значение.
Patricia Pehrson (9/5): Alt i alt super super godt til prisen .. - Lokation var fuldstændig fantastisk ! 🤩 Der er lige lovlig lydt til til nabo værelset.
Françoise (5/5): Le personnels et l’emplacement au top rien à dire . - Le personnel au top . Très réactif Au bout du deuxième jours fuite au niveau du détecteur en plein milieu de la pièce . Nous avons demander à changer de chambre ce qui a été fait le même jours mais le soucis c’est que dans la deuxième chambre la douche été boucher et la pomme de douche casser .

Laila (4/5): The price was high with no services provided - Location is so good close to all services There was no room cleaning during our stay, with the manager explaining that the housekeeper was sick. No refund or compensation was offered. Breakfast was not provided as a buffet; instead, a very small portion of the same food was served every day. Additionally, the manager did not inform us that breakfast was not a buffet, despite the fact that we asked at check-in about the breakfast location and timing. The following morning, we waited in the room expecting breakfast, but no staff were present and no information was given. The shower was broken and leaking, and there was no kettle available for making tea or coffee. The heater did not work for two nights. We requested an extra bedsheet and were told it would be provided within an hour; however, after three days, it was never delivered. The TV was not working, and the remote control had dead batteries. Although we were two guests, we were provided with only one key card.
Eszter (9/5): - Barátságos személyzet, jó elhelyezkedés Nem változatos a reggeli

Laura (10/5): - Amara is a gem in a fantastic location for reaching the major historical sights on foot. The cafe is lovely with indoor & outdoor seating options. The free Turkish-style breakfast is great and filling :-) Everything in the room worked well, no problems at all. We hope to return to Istanbul with our whole family someday, and booking a hotel will be an easy task: Amara!
Emilio (10/5): - BIEN
Emilio (10/5): - Gracias
Edoo (7/5): Good -
Vaskenzis (2/5): The only good thing is that the hotel is so bad that we didn't want to stay there longer than we had - it is located close to all sights and public transport. We got a room on the first floor, and from 7 in the morning, we were woken up by the creaking chairs of people having breakfast. In the room next to it was a storage room where the staff were talking loudly and shouting. The room was too cold when we arrived because the window was open even though it was cold outside. The bathroom has a problem with the drain, so it smelled very bad, and there is a lot of mold. When we arrived, we asked if the SPA was open, and they said not at the moment. The next day, they said they were waiting for some "masters" to fix it, in their bad English. The next day, we asked if it was working,and they said we were late. On the fourth day, we headed out on our own and saw that there was a Turkish bath and a sauna, which were cold currently packed with stuff. It's obviously a bait for them. There is no pool, I guess they used to use the pool from the hotel next door, but that is impossible now. All of the staff know English, but when you ask about the spa, they direct you to an older gentleman, who is very rude. The breakfast is very poor, really too bad food, which we are not used to from Turkey. I can pos photos as a proof.
Sarvar (4/5): Disappointing -
Mohamed (10/5): Exceptional -
Samira (10/5): - Alle Mitarbeiter waren sehr nett, heimisches Gefühl
Jovana (9/5): We enjoyed our stay very much! Nice and friendly staff and close to main attractions. -
Ahmed (10/5): - Amazing
Jordan (6/5): Helpful and friendly staff - Not a bad hotel in a nice central location. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was poor and disappointing;, just one boiled egg and some ham , cheese , bread and olives plus condiments. Room and bathroom in general were ok. Safe was not very safe. Hallways were undergoing renovation so at times looked like a building site and slight issue with the plumbing one morning with dirty water coming through the taps and toilet.
Katalin (9/5): Perfect location, clean rooms - Location is just perfect close to all Spice Bazaar, Blue Mosque and Topkapi. Very helpful and friendly staff, flexible to late check-in and early check-out. Clean and refurbished rooms. Fridge (mini) upon request. Small and repetitive breakfast. But nice turkish tea!
Ayad (4/5): Disappointing - Location Bathroom drain is bad.. The room is so small, no enough space bags.. Towels are with bad smell.. Breakfast was not included.. Air conditioner isn't working, but room.. temperature was good without the need for conditioner.. I asked for a taxi to the airport, and they promised me provide one, but no taxi ,then I used uber application..
Ahmed (10/5): Amazing - The location of the hotel is perfect,the staff were so friendly especially Abdulhamid and Natalia where she made the breakfast with love
Sasheto (10/5): Exceptional - Nice renewal building. Nice host! In the middle of the old city.
Dmitry (10/5): Exceptional -
Marina (2/5): Very poor -
Katherine (8/5): Great value for money and would definitely stay here again. - GREAT location, so close to all the sites as well as transport options. Staff were all really friendly and nice, breakfast was good with excellent coffee, and our room was quiet, had aircon, and a balcony. The cleaning could have been more thorough - we saw some hair/dust on the floor right next to the walls and under the bed when we moved it.
Ismaiel (8/5): May improve breakfast and be available earlier like all hotels - The room is clean and the bed is very confortable. The wifi is ok The breakfast is basic and the service is from 9h00 to 10h30. I only use it one time. They didn’t clean the room the second day !
Jiangyi (8/5): Very good -
Jiangyi (9/5): Superb -
Abdulhamid (8/5): Very good -
Andrea (5/5): Excellent location, facilities and breakfast could be improved. - Excellent location, cutest hotel kitty. Bathroom door wouldn't close, aircon was either blasting icy air, or circulated the air in the room, there was no middle ground. One of the lights didn't work and never got fixed despite daily reports and promises. Breakfast was *very* basic. A boiled egg, a few slices of cheese, two small slices of cold cut, two baby tomatoes, two slices of cucumber, a single tiny pot each of butter, jam, honey, and chocolate spread. Came with Turkish tea, anything else (coffee, for example) was extra.
Seraina (3/5): Not worth the price. - Good location, many things within walking distance as well as main public transportation. On arrival there were still tufts of hair in the shower, the sink was dirty and the fridge had not been emptied. There were things in it that had been opened. The floor was dusty and there was hair lying around in many places. At least the bed and toilet were clean. Although I had booked a room with a double bed, I was given one with two single beds. The hotel staff then simply pushed them together - no need to mention the gap in the middle. The breakfast was not extensive. There was no water, only one tea and the second was brought reluctantly on request. I only had breakfast there once…
Arek (6/5): Poor - Good location. Poor room service. No cups for making coffee and tea. After asking for cups, we only received 4 paper cups for a 5-day stay. No fridge in the room and we had to ask for it too. Modest breakfasts served on a plate. Coffee for breakfast at an additional charge. The balcony was very small and adjacent to the wall of another building. The rooms were very dark, we had to have the light on all the time. There was a constant smell of cigarettes in the room, and we had booked a non-smoking room and there was also noise from the neighboring rooms. I do not recommend.
Jasmine (10/5): Good value for money - Good service
Batool (8/5): Very good -
Mj (7/5): Good - * Convenient location * Safe and secure * Clean and well-maintained * Competitive rates * Poor room service * Lack of reliability * Noisy rooms * Malfunctioning amenities
Merve (8/5): - War alles gut bis auf das einchecken. Wir waren um 14:30 da und hatten erstmal kein Zimmer und mussten warten bis die Zimmer sauber waren (da waren Leute drin die eigentlich auschecken sollten, aber noch immer drin waren) Ende vom Lied wir sind um 17 Uhr eingecheckt. Sonst war alles top :)
Emrah (6/5): - Zentrale Lage jedoch schwer erreichbar mit dem Fahrzeug. Keine parkmoglichkeiten
Louay (10/5): Enjoy the hotel and the location - Very good hotel and the location is excellent too. Mr Ayhan at the reception is very nice person and very helpful too . I would recommend this hotel and would certainly stay at this hotel. There is a lovely girl at the reception she is very friendly and very helpful .
