Reviews
The hotel furniture looks extremely outdated, like something from the 1970s. The bathroom lacked basic essentials – we ran out of toilet paper, and despite calling reception, no one brought any for half a day. Only after a second call late in the evening did someone finally bring us a single roll, which felt quite pathetic for a hotel claiming 5-star service.
The pool is small and always overcrowded, making it almost unusable. Breakfast ends sharply at 10:30 AM, and they literally unplug the coffee machine at that time, even if guests are still eating.
The hotel location is misleading in the description – it’s not a short walk to Blue Mosque or Hagia Sophia as advertised. It takes at least 20 minutes by taxi.
The worst experience was with the hotel-arranged taxi for our airport transfer. I wanted to order an Uber Comfort with air conditioning, but the hotel staff convinced us to take their taxi instead…
I specifically confirmed with the reception that I could pay by card, as I don’t carry cash. What arrived was an old, run-down car with no air conditioning, on a 32°C day. The driver smoked during the ride despite me mentioning my asthma, and took non-toll roads, turning what should be a 45-minute trip into a 2.5-hour nightmare. Upon arrival at the airport, we were told that card payment wasn’t possible unless we had a Turkish card, and were pressured to go find a cash machine at the airport.
This felt like an obvious scam – organized between the hotel and the driver. I had no choice but to pay extra for a fast track service (£46) just to make our flight on time. Additionally, I lost access to a pre-booked lounge as a result.
Overall, the service level is unacceptable for what’s marketed as a 5-star hotel. In reality, it barely meets the standards of a 3-star European hotel. I would not recommend this property and suggest future guests be cautious.
