Hotels Near Balaban Sahil Alanı in Istanbul

My best recommendations if you are visiting Istanbul. I will try to add to the list depending on what gems i find during my stay. These are what i found so far. 🥳🥳 1. Malls: Florya aquarium is located right by the sea and has a big Aquarium inside the mall, lots of cafeterias all with seaview, a games arcade on the top floor for the children, freshly popped popcorn by the sea promenade which also leads to a beach area and a smaller Tivoli right besides the beach. It has everything you need for a complete day trip including massage chairs for relaxing after all that fun. This is my favourite place in all of istanbul. 2. Transportation - Umit Ates +90 555 170 65 32 Nicest and most honest taxi driver i have ever met. He drives in all of Istanbul and is only a phonecall away. Him and his brother own their own taxi business and they are online 24/7, 7 days a week. Big plus that they speak English since the language barrier is usually a big problem for me when I order a taxi in Istanbul. They do both airport transfers and long distance roadtrips. 3. Best Cappuccino - Mado Café in Karaköy has 3 different flavours and they are all so delicious. It's Hazelnut, Raspberry and Mint. My absolute favourite is Hazelnut because it's so creamy. 4. Cafeteria - Big shout-out to Suflör in Besiktas. Their atmosphere is so homey and lovely with games like the first Nintendo that take you back to your childhood memories. Their sufflé with vanilla ice cream is the best you will ever taste. 😋 Let me know what you think after you try it hahahahaha 😂

We got to this hotel by chance - here we were transferred from another hotel, which suddenly canceled our booking (Villa Siesta) on a pretext. But we were even happy about it. We had two luxurious huge rooms, with huge terraces on the upper floors with a beautiful view of the whole town and bay. Excellent huge breakfast. A pleasant pool in which you can swim in the morning before departure. Very welcome staff. The only drawback is a bad evening dinner on Sunday. We were later explained by the absence of a chef. Very pleasant area. It's not a hotel as such. There are two large three-storey cottages with apartments (but without kitchen) in the area of the site. Many staff speak Russian as they arrived from Central Asia. Contingent is transfer passengers for one night. No elevator. Recommended for relaxed transfer at Istanbul Airport. Bear in mind that the whole embankment and beach of the town - in reconstruction, so the meaning in the hotel at the shore is not, and in this hotel is much more comfortable.

We stayed at MQ Hotel Suites there nights ago in June 2022. What an amazing experience it has been for our family, we had the sea facing rooms and both rooms were amazing. The staff is super friendly and eager to help you with anything. Price is reasonable and easily affordable. Breakfast served is delicious and has plenty of variety . The location is a top notch, locals there are so nice and friendly . Hotel manager Sergin is awesome and took care of our family. Whenever we come back to Turkiye we will definitely stay at MQ hotel suites, only 25 min away from Istanbul Airport and yet provides you with splendid views of Black Sea. Definitely the best hotel, and highly recommended!.

I spent 2 nights in this hotel. Location is perfect, not far from Istanbul New Airport. If you want sights, go the other way, here is only peace, sea, flying planes. Rooms are all with balconies coming out on the sea, the beach is clean every morning, in principle clean. Menu is not big but quite diverse, portions are big. Someone complained about the reviews on the ripping is a lie. Everything has a fixed price. Staff is just super. All your tasks are solved. Change money, help with taxi call... Very pleasant people. Sure, I'll go back to this hotel again. A wire in the corners is nonsense compared to everything else. Food from the menu is delicious, spices delicious, bread is just a fairy tale.

To begin with, now this hotel is called DNZ TAXIM FERİDİYE HoTEL. I booked a stay for three nights through booking in a deluxe room. Upon arrival, we were given a different room that did not match the description and photo when booking. We returned to the administrator with an attempt to explain that the number was clearly different. He looked for our reservation for a long time, found it, and eventually gave us another room. It was larger and similar in size to the one in the photo, but it did not match in appearance. We were told that there were no other rooms available. In the end, I had to stay in this room. Then we began to examine it in more detail and were in a slight shock. The point was the condition of the room itself: the door trims were broken off, the walls were all chipped to the ground, the sink was loose, the shower hose was frayed, the faucet that was kept on parole. The faucet and fan just stuck out of the wall, everything above the doorway in the bathroom was smeared with cement without any kind of decoration (everything is in the photo). Towels are dirty, with lipstick residue and holes. Bed linen was also in question. The price included breakfast, which again turned out to be not the same as in the photo on bo***********A photo of breakfast is also attached to the review. The main thing there is half a loaf. Arabs work at the front desk, who know a couple of words in English, that is, it is extremely difficult to communicate with them. And finally, the cherry on the cake. We decided that we could not stand here for three nights and leave after two nights. As a result, the administrators canceled our reservation when we checked out, and sent information to booking that we supposedly did not check in. In general, they simply deceive people! I do not recommend this hotel to anyone!

Perfect stay in central of istanbul. Walking distance to Taksim and Galata Tower. Sishane metro and Tophane tram station are also nearby. Room was clean. The only thing we need maybe an electric kettle inside the room to make tea and coffee. And also more variety in the breakfast

Ξενοδοχείο στη πλατεία Ταξίμ , σε τοποθεσία που εξυπηρετεί τις μετακινήσεις στο κέντρο της πόλης και βρίσκεις πολλά μαγαζιά και εστιατόρια. Δωμάτια χωρίς καθόλου θέα και με πολύ θόρυβο από το δρόμο. Το πρωϊνό φτωχό, μόνο η θέα από την αίθουσα του πρωϊνού αξίζει.
