Wonderful hotel, I stayed several times and the quality has not declined. Staff were wonderful and very helpful. My room view was amazing even though my booking was a city view. I always felt that money is well spent and it worth every penny!

The location is excellent! They are directly above Taksim, and only about 2 mins to reach the metro station.
Views are pretty good if you get to face the taksim square, and the rooms are quiet too. However if you are facing the other city view on the left of Taksim square, good luck to you! They have a nearby club which plays super loud music all the way until 1am. Take note if you are sensitive to noise.
For the rooms with Bospherous views, personally i think it's not very worth it as the hotel is quite far from the sea. Hence although the views are nice, they are priced too high as the views are too far off (you have to pay about Euro 100 more to upgrade from corner city view to Bospherous deluxe room view).
For those who are sensitive to smoke, please take note the hotel is not smoke free. Only some levels are smoke free. However, we stayed on level 9 which is supposed to be smoke free, but we smelled cigarette smoke. Obviously people were smoking on a non-smoking level. When we gave feedback to the staff, they claimed that they will investigate but nothing was done. When we enquired further, they just changed our room to another even smaller room, although they gave us a higher floor with a Bospherous view. Try to avoid corner rooms on level 16. You wont even have space to put luggage.
One funny thing is that the hotel will try to push for you to download their app and self help via it. However it was not working for 2 full days. When we gave feedback to the front desk staff, they said their IT team will look into it and fix it by the night, but it was not resolved even until the next day. No idea why they even have the app when it is not even working.
Overall, our stay was not as enjoyable as we hoped it would be. The service staff was laggard and not helpful in solving the problems. And not all front desk staff are able to converse confidently in English.
Response from Property: Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not fully meet your expectations. Your comments regarding noise, smoke issues, room allocation, and service experience have been carefully noted and shared with the relevant departments for further review and improvement. We truly value your feedback as it helps us improve our services. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again for a better experience. Best Regards, Fatma Kutlucan Guest Relations Manager

The service at the reception was 5-star and the location is very convenient. The gym is excellent. I was disappointed the hamam was cold and there was no indoor or outdoor pool or hot spring / onsen. The sauna staff were very focused on selling packages than helping the customers - for example the water dispenser was not working and no one was interested to fix it. There is no area in the hotel for smoking (like a terrace or smoker’s area) so you need to leave the hotel.
Response from Property: Dear Guest , Thank you for your feedback. We’ve shared your comments with the relevant department and hope to welcome you again soon. Best Regards, Fatma Kutlucan Guest Relations Manager
