Hotels near Giriş KAYAŞEHİR, Istanbul

There are a lot of wonderful features of this hotel. 1. The room is clean, spacious, and suitable for desk work. 2. The full-choice breakfast menu, which could vary by day, includes restaurant-like dishes such as eggplant salad, mushroom salad, and scrambled egg with tomato (Menemen). 3. The staff are not only amiable and helpful but also respond quickly. 4. Most importantly, I left my personal belongings in the room when I checked out to leave for my country. After my inquiry, the hotel staff searched the room and kindly made an overseas call to tell me that they had found them. I am so grateful for their kindness.

The gym and swimming pool are both good. The swimming pool is indoors and has floor heating. There is a basketball court outdoors. There is a supermarket next to it, but there are few places to eat. No one cleaned the room during the 3-day stay. I went too early to check in. I waited outside for more than two hours. There were security guards at the entrance and exit.

There was no way to drive in the snow, so I had to stay in this hotel. There is only a square and an office next to it. There is nothing else. If the square is closed, you can't buy anything. There are no small supermarkets within a few kilometers, and gas stations are hard to find. The entrance is to get on the high-speed, sandwiched in the road, the only convenient transportation hotel has a new subway at the entrance. At this price, it is recommended to take the subway to live in the city center. The room is hygienic, but there are no bright spots in the new decoration. The service is very general. It takes at least three calls to get a response.

I should firstly say that all staff at the hotel are amazing. They are polite and so helpful. One of the staff who stands in front of the door went to the road and found a taxi for us and bring it to the door when there was no taxi around. HOWEVER, generally the hotel cannot be considered as four star, it can hardly be a 3 star hotel. There are two significant negative points which makes the whole experience bad: 1. The room: room was big enough but the decoration and amenities were so outdated, the view was rubbish, when we entered lots of bad smell made us so disappointed. the bathroom was the worst part. broken shower holder (I told the reception but it wasnt sorted), shortage of toilet tissues, smell, broken toilet seat, awkward toilet tissue holder, etc. 2. breakfast: This was the worst part of the experience. The breakfast was so basic. just lots of cheese and cheese!!!, no cream, a couple of choices for bread, a few choices of sausages, all not really nice, very basic. occasionally you could find something else like aubergines. Fruits (whole oranges and pears and occasionally melons, not every day, and if you are late nothing. I had to ask the staff why the empty dishes are not updated and they said its finished, while all breakfast must be available during the whole breakfast time). same with juice (only lemonade every day) and again if you are late no juice. a hot drink, only tea!!!! unbelievably no coffee!!! When I asked for coffee they said you need to pay extra!!!!! BUT MOST TERRIBLE part was that the staff were told to ask guests if they need fried eggs (omelette in Turkish!). and when you said yes, they bring fried eggs but charge you 46tl!!! There were lots of arguments during breakfast between staff and guests about this. They also put some other sweets like pancakes etc. on the other side and children could see and ask for them, but again you had to pay extra. I had several arguments with staff and realised this has nothing to do with them. This is a wrong policy dictated by the manager who doesn't want to accept these are wrong. We have already paid extra for breakfast, why do we need to pay again for things like coffee, fried eggs, sweets, and so on? why things are finished before breakfast time finishes... overall, if breakfast and bathroom are important for you, and you want a hotel close to attractions avid this hotel. another thing was that during booking I saw there is a sauna and gym but no one gave us information about these.

this was my second stay at this hotel. The service is still very good, Improved breakfast variety, the staff is very friendly and helpful. The room is clean, the beds are comfortable, walking distance to the mall of istanbul. The location is ideal if your business is on this side. My job in this region is a place I would rather prefer.

Hotel location is very good, very close to the Sofia Cathedral, the Blue Mosque. Do the airport bus ist20 line (16 lira per person), get off the big plaza of the Blue Mosque, walk 5, 6 minutes! Sitting on the rooftop just in time to enjoy the Blue Mosque (unfortunately has been repairing). The boss is very enthusiastic and will be enthusiastic about introducing fun places. The breakfast is quite rich: coffee, black tea, juice, boiled eggs, all kinds of nuts, fruits, bread... It is very comfortable for three days. If you want to visit the old town well, recommend it here.

Excellent location in the heart of Sultanahmet district within a short walk from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The hotel staff were all very helpful and friendly, while helping us with directions or signing up for tours. The hotel was very clean and our corner room with sea view was a good size and very nicely furnished. As others have said, the bathroom is small and you have to navigate around the door to get to the toilet. The Turkish breakfast was nice with a good selection of fruits, pastries, and eggs made to order. Overall a very pleasant experience and would stay there again.

Great experience. Very convenient. Blue Mosque is literally two minutes walk so is Aayasofia. Very friendly staff. Specifically the hotel manager Mohammed very helpful. He guides you properly so you don’t get ripped off as a tourist.
