Pet friendly Hotels in Istanbul

The room was cozy and spacious. They change towels upon request, and while breakfast was a bit repetitive, it was enough for us. They even offer a welcome cocktail. It can get a little noisy in the evenings, but that's expected given its proximity to the Galata Tower.

The hotel is a three-storey house, coupled with a cafe outside (where the tastiest breakfast is served (thanks!)). My room was very nice, thought through, I really liked the oldish appearance of the house itself and the design of the room, wooden furniture and huge windows. Since the room was on the first floor and the windows were facing the cafe, it was a little noisy in the evenings, and I needed to pull down the curtains as well. The room had all the listed appliances (incl. a small fridge and a kettle) but I lacked a table, however I guess the room size does not allow for it. The main advantage for me was the location: I really love that district, walked around it a lot. There are two very pleasant parks that descend to Bosphorus (going down the slope is pretty easy), and there is Üsküdar dock nearby if you want to get to other parts of the city by ferry. The metro station is ±8-10 min away and there are shops and local restaurants around.

Well it did the job. A flight stopover, 15 minute walk from the metro, They didn't have any balcony rooms I had booked and paid for, but when you are tired you're just grateful for a room. A little old and tired, but no real complaints. In the morning, I went to breakfast at 7, when they open, had a very quick bite to eat, walked to the metro, waited about 10 minutes for a train and arrived at the terminal at 8. Be aware that this is not a tourist area and there does not appear to be anywhere to buy alcohol.

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel and liked its location. Staff are friendly and helpful and we appreciated the daily room cleaning and reset. The best feature of the hotel is that it is well situated to explore Istanbul and is about a 10 minute walk to the Sultanahmet Square where you will find many of the main attractions in Istanbul like Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. There is a tram line station very close to the hotel and it is a short walk to Sirkeci metro station. It was a good base for us as we checked out the areas across the water. It is a little far from both airports with each taking about 1.5 hours to get to but we felt the location was worth the time. The room's decor was a bit aged but charming. The beds were comfy and you can get extra pillows here. The room ran a bit warm during our stay but it was a bit noisy outside with frequent tram trains and restaurants below so we kept the window shut. They do have air conditioning and a radiator but we felt the AC wasn't worth turning on during a cool stay in December. Our neighbours were a bit noisy and it kept my wife up but I had no issues sleeping. It was moderately inconvenient when the restaurant decided to pop their new year's eve decorations at 1 in the morning. The bathroom was good and clean with good shower pressure, soft towels and we appreciated the warming rack for the towels. They provide soap and shampoo in dispensers in the shower. The breakfast was decent enough to start the day. They had enough to do a Turkish style breakfast and most options were pretty light. They had some hot items like sausage, scrambled eggs and other options that changed daily. They also had an area for cold items like cheese, labneh, yoghurt, vegetables and some cold cuts. They had a limited selection of fruit with some oranges and apples. They also had coffee, tea, juice and water. I had an early check out on my last day and they made me a nice bagged lunch to go to the airport with and have me a big can of juice which was very nice. The hotel provides bottled water for guests as well as lots of tea for in room use. The hotel has a restaurant on site and a small outdoor patio that is open for lunch, dinner and late dinner. They have some spa and massage treatments that you can book at the front desk. There are quite a few bath, restaurants, shops and other experiences nearby. People in the area are very friendly, welcoming and will invite you into their shop or restaurant...frequently.

Our check-in experience was absolutely dreadful. It was clear the front desk and a staff member were colluding, attempting to downgrade us to a twin room that was barely cleaned, stuffy, and had a foul odor, not to mention being 20 square meters smaller than what we'd reserved. We had to strongly insist before they finally gave us our booked room. All the while, they kept exchanging knowing glances, lying that the hotel was full and ridiculously claiming the inferior room was actually an upgrade. We saw right through their scam and absolutely refused to let them succeed. Only when they realized they couldn't fool us any longer did they reluctantly hand over the keys to our actual room. Thankfully, the barbecue restaurant downstairs was fantastic, and we even found some great dried apricots at the supermarket across the street.

Good hotel. I usually choose the Ibis chain of hotels when I travel. There are some suggestions for improving the condition of the room in terms of freshness of renovation and cleanliness. Overall, good. Excellent view from the window. Excellent service. I recommend!

We stayed at this hotel for one night with my family, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Everything was very clean and well maintained, which immediately made us feel comfortable. After a long flight, Mr. Adil kindly helped us get a comfortable room where we could properly rest. The service was genuinely warm, the dinner was very good, and Mr. Adil went above and beyond by arranging a late check out, offering us coffee on the house, and even organising a private transfer service to the airport. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would happily stay here again.

I chose to stay here because i have problem about my flight and need near by IST airport, just took time 17 minutes by taxi. After CI everything smoothly and staff so helpful room is make sense with price and amenities not bad (shampoo,shower gel, handwashing gel, towels, water drinking, paper sleeper,hair drying) not to much clean but overall okay for me just short stay the building beside main road and restaurant around very easy but the first night is smooth and feel safe for me. But! Then! I extend more 1 night at night time 2.15 am (time after midnight) there was a man nocking my door and walk around next of my room and try to knock the door with soft knock, that time I feel not safe because I stay alone and keep in silence and listened, he stop and go then phon in my room ringing but so short so I know this is not normal and not safe for me and I cannot trust whoever I fear to call to night manager because I cannot trust anybody as my room location just at 2nd floors so if someone came to this floor whoever at reception should know. I waiting a moment and if he came again i ready to call police then but after that he gone. I listen men may be 2persons talking something then they gone out. I couldn’t slept and wait until in the morning before I check out I call reception and told what had happened to me and let them check by cctv because this is the security of people who decide to book here. He said just sorry to me and actually i will help to present this hotel to friends by my social media channels after I arrive my home but so scare I cannot.

My room was on the 2nd floor, and I naturally carried my luggage up the stairs myself, without an elevator. The location of the hotel is excellent. Everything was working in the room. But it was very dusty, dirty, and there was a man's hair in the sink. I do not know if they cleaned up after the last guest, if they changed the bed. Every 2-3 minutes, a fire alarm goes off, which keeps you awake. I didn't catch Wi-Fi in the room. But I was at the reception. You can spend the night, but not very pleasant conditions.

Great service overall
