Reviews
Location is great. Lots of cafes and restaurants nearby
The hotel offers free access to the sauna, pool, and hammam (self-service), which was a great addition to our stay. However, the rules regarding the hammam were unclear. Although there were items available for use in the hammam, a cleaning staff member informed us on our last day that these were an additional cost. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to clarify this with the reception before we left.
Despite this small issue, both my boyfriend and I were very satisfied with our stay. The situation with the hammam was the only downside, but it didn’t significantly affect our overall experience.
The roof top restaurant has fabulous views across the city and the food is delicious. Very friendly.
I also had a Thai massage in the spa which was amazing. Sorted a crick in my shoulder 😁
Friendly reception staff.
Unprofessional attire and demeanor of spa staff.
Enjoyable pool, although water temperature is cold.
Rooms lack sound isolation.
Breakfast is satisfactory.
We changed our room because previous one was too small for 2 people with a baby. For 2 days they didnt want to change the room, claiming they are full and the rooms are same-sized, but one morning I saw a room that is opened, it had more space and was obviously empty, so I asked for it and they changed it.
The hotel is overally good, but there are some things, like dirt under the bed, the shower water takeout didnt work well, so the water stayed in it. However they changed the towels and gave toilet papers and water every day. We also had a baby bad.
The breakfast are averige, almost the same every day, poor coffee and juice is made out of powder.
The welness was a disapoitment, the pool is cold and not very clean, the hamam is small and dark and a bit dirty- so nothing really pleasant. We booked this hotel because it had wellness, but it was not really worth to be at.
There is noise from the street - trams and people, but we are used to it. So I would give this hotel 3 stars, not 4. But for the price 54€/ night per two people it was Ok.
