Best Hotel of My Trip – Exceptional Service! This is hands down the best hotel I stayed at during my trip! The service was absolutely amazing—I’ve never experienced service like this in Turkey. The valet parking team and security staff were incredibly nice, respectful, and spoke English very well. The service felt like more than 5 stars, and they were extremely generous! The room was very clean and spacious, making it totally worth the money. The only downside is that it’s a bit far from Taksim and Galata Port, but it wasn’t an issue for me since we had a car. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel!

I wasn't given the soft punch except on one booking even thought every booking I should have received it. I had to constantly fight for the vip access upgrade because even though they had availability they kept hesitating and taking g time to decide if I will be upgraded. On arrival for night I was refused upgrade even though I had vip access. I would stsy

Alot of headache and stress with regards to vip access and room upgrade. Felt antagonised for requesting room upgrade and being told different things. I was upgraded by guest relations eventually but only after numerous calls requests between hotel and Expedia and constant back and forth. Very exhausting and spoiled my holiday. This has never happened at any other hotel.

I recently stayed at this hotel and was extremely disappointed with the experience. First off, the check-in process was a nightmare. It took forever, and the staff seemed completely disorganized. Poor English as well.. By the time I finally got to my room, I was already frustrated. But the worst was yet to come. The room itself was far from clean. The housekeepers clearly didn’t do their job properly—dust was visible on surfaces, and the bathroom looked like it hadn't been thoroughly cleaned in days. To make matters worse, the room was full of mosquitoes, making it nearly impossible to get a good night's sleep. For the price they charge, I expected much better. Honestly, this place feels more like a 3-star hotel, and even that might be generous. It’s way too expensive for nothing special. I would definitely not recommend staying here.
