Liked this hotel, had 1 wonderful day here. The room was non-smoking and immaculate, had TV set with satellite channels, climate control and a personal safe. The vibe here was quiet. Got wake up service free of charge, not bad too.

    The rooms were incredibly spacious and beautifully designed, with a private entrance and hammam that made us feel like royalty. The separate living area was perfect for relaxing after a long day of exploring Istanbul.

    We found the lack of a connecting door between the adjacent rooms a bit inconvenient for keeping an eye on the kids while giving them their space.

    The location of the hotel was awesome, just minutes away from the city center and all the important attractions. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, always ready to assist. The rooms were spacious and clean, providing a comfortable stay.

    There was a slight disappointment with the lack of a pool for relaxation, but they did have a jacuzzi which was decent enough. The rooftop bar had a strict dress code policy, which was a bit annoying as I wasn't able to go up and enjoy the view.

    Good hotel with great staff and luxurious amenities. The service was exceptional and the spa & wellness center was top-notch, featuring a sauna, massage, and steam room. The sun terrace was a great spot to relax and soak up some sun. The restaurant was excellent and there were special diet menus available. In-room breakfast was a nice touch, and the bar/lounge area was perfect for a cocktail before heading out.

    Minor issue with cleanliness, as there was a used ear stick on the floor upon arrival. However, this was quickly remedied by the staff.

    The location of the hotel is excellent, close to Taksim Square but away from noise. The breakfast was good with a variety of options and the staff was helpful in addressing an issue with the heater in my room. I would recommend this hotel.

    Everything was simply great. Fairly clean hotel, loved to be near tourist attraction and shopping, the important places and Taksim thanks to perfect location. We were glad to have central heating, a safe and a mini-fridge-bar in our superior room with gates. The breakfast was varied, with lots of different options. Early check in and good service overall.

    The wellness center on the eleventh floor was a sanctuary amidst the bustling city. The views from the fitness studio were so stunning that I almost forgot I was working out. The Turkish hammam in the room made me feel like royalty, and the private entrance gave an air of exclusivity.

    Sparse breakfast options.

    The hotel's Wellness and Fitness Centre was so amazing, I felt like I was in a luxury spa. The executive office was perfect for pretending to be important. And the location was great, I could easily explore the city and then come back to a cozy room.

    I loved how the kitchen staff made it a mystery game to figure out what kind of cheese I was eating. So suspenseful.
