Helpful concierge re places to visit and activities to do. Rooms clean and comfortable if a little compact but the location was great for access. If you are sound sensitive you could be bothered by the noise of the city and the trams that run outside the hotel.
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 😁

Very nice hotel ..... Clean rooms... Located in the heart of the Old City .... Many famous destinations are within walking distance... Very good breakfast

The hotel was lovely. We were on the 7th floor so the tram sounds were light and didnt disturb us. Breakfast was nice but wouldve been better with authentic turkish breakfast options (ie menemen, sucuk eggs). Also would’ve preferred the breakfast on the top floor with a view. Overall service was good and room was clean (daily cleaning). Air conditioning was great in the summer. Location was perfect walking distance to places.

I do not recommend this hotel. We were planning to spend a few wonderful days in Istanbul during Ramadan. We booked a hotel for a family a month in advance. We arrived at the hotel and they told us that the reservation was canceled without reason. An alternative was not provided citing that there were no places. It looks like they sell reserved rooms at a higher price. If you don’t want to ruin your vacation, take into account that this may happen at this hotel.

Great location, but avoid rooms on the 7th floor due to unbearable noise from the restaurant.
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 stayed in this hotel for 6 nights.

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.

Rooms were old repainted. It had a flair of old. Service? There was supposed to be to be bottled water in the rooms. We stayed for 12 days and had to ask every afternoon for water. Once we spoke to our regular chamber maid, the service was done in impeccable. Meaning fresh towels and sheets, replenished coffee/tea packets and floors were mopped, sink clean and room was tidy. We love her so much we gave her a tip at the end. The location was the best as the rail metro line was close by and easy to access. Make sure you purchase a Metro card and top it off. 100 turkish lira TL for card with 30 TL on the card. It is 15 TL per ride or swipe. If you walk everywhere you’ll hit 22 thousand steps per day on the average so bring good comfortable shoes! Fresh pomegranate juice should cost no more than
100TL but there are many vendors that will sell at 150TL. There is a huge park just to the south of the Orient hotel. Great place to sit have lunch or dinner and watch everyone walk by.

TERRIBLE!!! CIGARETTE SMOKE & NOISES FROM:
SAVAGES PARTY PEOBLE, MOVING TABLES & TRAM

People are shouting and the tables are moved on the top floor even after midnight also music very loud.

Really can't rest in this hotel!
06.01.2024
Rooms are nice but right next to the elevators. We'll 302/301 are. If staying at the front try to get a high floor as the trams are noisey and there is no sound proofing if somebody above you.

Rooms are decorated well and clean with fridge and good shower. Good resturant close by called Fulane.

Breakfast location is dark and not very satisfying. However good choice available.

The hotel is centrally located and ideal for a short stay. Room was a bit small by western standard but is livable for no more than1 or 2 nites. We were only there for one nite. Staff was very helpful and welcoming. You have to walk a bit with your luggages to get there bc cars do not drop off in front of hotel. Overall it is a good hotel for short stay for a sigle or two max persons to be close to everything.
