Hotels near Kucukcekmece Ikitelli cemevi, Istanbul

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 The room: room was big enough but the decoration and amenities were so outdated, the view was rubbish, when we entered lots of bad smell made us so disappointed.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.

-＞Area and Surroundings: The hotel is at a walking distance from “Mall of Istanbul” for about 8 minutes. We arrive to the hotel by 1:00 AM and it was difficult for our taxi driver to find the hotel. The approach to reach is very desolated. -＞Room: I was in a standard room. The room was decent size and the bed was comfortable. The room had all standard amenities like Hair dryer, safety box, a hot water kettle, a small refrigerator, Ironing board etc. What I found missing was USB charging points, which is pretty much a standard now for all the hotels. The room had a table and a chair for working on your computer / working otherwise. -＞Bathroom and Bathing experience: The bathroom was decent in size. It had a congested WC next to a wash basin. It did had a bathtub in the bathroom doubling as a shower area as well. The water pressure was good enough in the shower. -＞Hotel Staff: Extremely polite, welcoming, interactive and warm. -＞Breakfast: The breakfast was well managed. The options were not as many as other good hotels but still a decent spread. We being vegetarians anyways are having very limited options to eat. -＞Swimming Pool / Gym / Spa: I was not able to access the pool or gym. -＞Lounge access: I did not have the lounge access. -＞Special mention: Wifi is free, and the speed is good.

We express our gratitude to the staff of the hotel. Want to distinguish GÜLNARU and ILHAMU responsible for cleanliness and comfort in the room .Every day clean,wash.Very clean. All very kind and polite, so creates an atmosphere of good rest and excellent mood. A nice design, made with taste. Thank you for the next meetings!!!!!!

I have booked at Pera orient hotel because it offers what I want from an hotel during my travels and the feedbacks were in its favor. Just after my booking was done I stumble on a negative review that was posted on trip advisor. I was worried about my choice. But when I went to Istanbul and stayed there, I felt compelled to share my own experience, which was entirely different and absolutely fantastic! I believe it's essential to give credit where credit is due. First of all , if you are seeking a resort , Pera Orient is not a resort and it never claims to be one! My stay at Pera Orient was comfortable and pleasant. Upon arrival, I was warmly greeted by the friendly and attentive staff, who made their best to help me in every possible way and to answer my queries during my 5-day long stay. Their warm smiles and genuine willingness to assist truly set the tone for my stay. The location of the hotel is ideal. A 6 min walk from the hotel takes you to Taksim square where you can take the Metro or bus to reach your desired destination. And it allowed me to make regular daily walks on istikal street . The street is a little narrow yes, but there are plenty of hotels all around that I have never felt scared or unsafe ( as it was mentioned in the negative review). And I always took the upward direction then turn right towards taksim. I was greeted by a spotless clean room with a tasteful decor. The bed was incredibly comfortable, The housekeeping staff was attentive and meticulous, making sure that my room was impeccably cleaned each day. Coffee and tea were left daily next to the kettle (sometimes with a bottle of water). When I will visit Istanbul again , I will definitely chose Pera Orient to stay in.

The staff of the hotel is very helpful and polite. The services from the Airport was very accurate. They send you clear information throughout your phone about any details that you need to know to reach out your transportation. I arrived very early at 6:30 am in the morning and they allowed me to do my check in; that way I could rest after my trip. Thank you so much to Mr Caffar and Mr Kadir for your good services. I am definitely will continue coming to this hotel.

This was most certainly the worst hotel I've stayed in till date. After reading poor reviews for many Istanbul hotels close to sultanahmet, i saw some good reviews for this and decided to book. On arrival, the front office manager on the reception desk couldn't find our reservations, this took at least 10mins for him to sort, which I wasn't too pleased with, especially as we'd been travelling for around 15hours and had got off an overnight flight with no sleep with my elderly mother with me, that, and he didn't as so much apologise. Oh well, I let it go and we made our way up to the room. The deluxe room I'd booked was *tiny*, there was just enough floor space to open one suitcase, take what you need, close it and put it away to be able to move past it. The bathroom was nice and spacious and clean too. I was about to hop into the shower when I pulled a towel off the rack.....brown poo stains were smeared over it. I was absolutely disgusted. I rang reception (the only number you can ring) and the front office manager said he'll send up housekeeping, yet again, not even a simple 'sorry'. I expressed how disgusted I was, I had only been in the hotel half an hour at this point! Housekeeping arrived shortly and replaced the towels. I had booked breakfast with our stay. The selection of food is very minimal. There were 2 waitresses who spent their time cleaning tables and stocking plates, guests were mainly ignored. Despite having paid for breakfast, you had to buy eggs and fresh juices. the only eggs available in the breakfast buffet were scrambled eggs and the juice was one I saw the waitress reconstituting from a powder and water. I've never stayed in a hotel where I've paid for breakfast and then been told I'd have to pay extra for certain items on the breakfast menu! Daylight robbery! I asked for an iron, which was sent up promptly. I rang down to enquire about the ironing board as there was nowhere to iron. The front office manager said ”Lady, you asked for an iron and you've got one now so what do you want!” I explained that i need a board to iron on, he said he'd see and call me back and angrily put the phone down. I didn't hear back for a few hours and needed clothes to go out in. So i had to use the bed as a make shift ironing board, not to mention the spits of hot water that burnt my hand in the process. Later in the day I rang for something else and also mentioned I didn't hear back about the ironing board- front office manager simply said he's been busy-no apology. He sent housekeeping to the room- a friendly lady who couldn't speak English and yet when i explained to her she understood and promptly brought me one. Be careful when ordering room service - the hotel don't actually make the food....they order takeout! I was told it would come in 20mins, I chased up 30mins later and was told 5mins, and then I chased up again and someone else who picked up laughed and said no it wouldn't be 5mins, it'll be another 20mins. By the time the f

Booked through an online platform, for one night for a stopover at impossible times. The reception is very kind and prompt: via WhatsApp you are contacted and the transfer to and from the airport is arranged (20 euros per trip). The transfer also works at night, just book in time. The rooms are new, well set up and very clean. The hotel also offers a kitchen service, which is highly recommended, but which we did not try. The area is isolated, but the structure serves mainly as an overnight stay for those who have to embark.

I have stayed here many times, but this time I was not satisfied at all. In the room, hair belonging to an old woman was scattered everywhere. The cleaning was unsuccessful. There was a hot water problem, the water was getting extremely cold and hot while taking a shower and washing dishes. I am not normally a person who chooses pillows, I can sleep with all pillows, regardless of whether they are hard, soft, high or low. The room is stuffed to the brim with a pillow large enough to bend your head at an exaggerated 45 degree angle. I preferred to sleep without a pillow.

I booked this hotel in good faith only to find yet again the positive reviews were not at all in keeping with the property. The hotel was noisy and every coming and going could be heard d. Additional for about an hour drums were banging to call the faithful to eat befor dawn as it is ramandan. I have travelled extensively in many Muslim countries during the holy month and never have experienced this; and I had includes Istanbul. I could not sleep while xhveas made harder as there were no curtains, just a net that lit the room up as soon as dawn broke. I complained at 6 am and thought I came to am amicable agreement but by 10am, this had changed and the manager became rude and aggressive. I felt threatened and unsafe and was coerced into saying I had missed my flight as I was told categorically this was the only one at I would get my money back. I questioned this but to no avail. He was adamant. The manager has not been truthful with *********** saying he gave me €175 when he in fact gave me €150 and effectively told me to leave his hotel. Another shameful example of the lack of truth. This is an atrotucios accommodation and I urge you to avoid
