Wyndham Istanbul Old City

Laleli Istanbul|0.7km from The Ayın Biri Church
We stayed there last week of August 22 and encountered a number of issues. Firstly, our room wasn't ready the first night and we were given to separate rooms which split our family up. I wasn't happy about this but we had no choice. What was alarming that during our stay, I observed atleast 5 other families having similar issue as you can't help not noticing people complaining when you walk past reception. I think this is a scam by the hotel as they encourage the booking, take the money then the first night you not in the room you paid for. Also the photos on booking.com is a complete lie. The room we stayed in did not look anything like what was portrayed on the site. We booked two double beds but one of them is a sofa bed! Not comfortable and we did raise this but hotel couldn't care less. They couldn't offer us another room so we had no choice to accept it. Moving on, the stay itself was pleasant enough. Breakfast was decent (but orange juice is cordial!), swimming pools sauna steam rooms were great. There is also a huge jacuzzi bath which was nice. Hotel is located 10 mins walk to grand bazaar and 5 mins walk to nearest tram. Cleanliness is poor. I would rate 2 out of 5. Cleaner was in and out like a flash. Didn't do floor etc. I looked under bed and dust has been collecting for months and not cleaned. Overall ok hotel but expensive for the service we encountered. Would I return? Probably not unless hotel can improve its cleanliness and customer service. I should have been offered some sort of refund for the first night and the sofa bed.
Orientbank Hotel Istanbul, Autograph Collection

Orientbank Hotel Istanbul, Autograph Collection

Fatih Istanbul|1.18km from The Ayın Biri Church
We decided to stay at Orientbank b/c it's a Marriott property (using points) and b/c the location is excellent to tour the city. We had debated staying here vs. one of the luxury hotels on the other side of the bridge. However, ultimately we are glad we stayed here as we were able to walk to all the tourist destinations. The hotel is also a couple blocks from the Grand/Spice bazaars. The street location of the hotel threw us off as it's right in the middle of 3 cross streets, though once we got over the initial shock, we loved it. It reminded us a lot of Gringotts (if you are a HP fan). The hotel is very small and actually was converted from a bank. It's also very new (opened only 11 months ago). The bank concept is used in various places and it's a nice touch. The lobby area is spacious with plenty of couches for people ot sit and get checked in or meet people. Lobby is also where breakfast is served - it can get crowded and busy in the mornings. The check in was very easy, Zanieb sat us down, explained the hotel and the surrounding areas. She walked us to our room and explained how the room worked as well. Throughout our stay she remembered our name and was very helpful in helping us understand where to go, whether it was to eat or for my wife to get her hair done (as her straightener had busted). Zaneib was also incredibly helping via email conversations as she helped arrange airport transfers. While everyone at the hotel was helpful, we felt Zanieb went above and beyond in her service and ensuring we had an excellent stay. We had a deluxe room which we were upgraded to from the standard room and still felt it was extremely small. The rooms are european style with the bed taking up most of the space. Luckily we had a small sitting area where we were able to put our large suitcases. The bathroom is also small and right next to the bed. Needless to say, there's no real sound privacy when you are in the bathroom with your significant other in bed. Regardless, this was expected as it's an european style rooms. Plus we were barely in the room except to get ready and sleep so we didn't mind. However, if we had a child with us, the deluxe room wouldn't have been big enough for the 3 of us. While we were there, they were in process of opening up a cigar lounge on the rooftop. Zanieb had offered to show us but we never got the time. The primary/dinner restaurant is in the basement which also functions as a jazz club. On Fri and Sat night they have live music and seem to charge cover. However, I hope cover is not charged to hotel guests. We only visited the restaurant the first night we were there. it was empty but the food was good and the ambience is great. Overall it's a great hotel. The staff is amazing and the location is perfect. I would stay here over any of the large luxury resorts on other side of the bridge.

AHG Atlas Hotel Taksim

Taksim Istanbul|2.96km from The Ayın Biri Church
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.

Victorious Hotel

Fatih
You get what you pay for, I can't complain. I was attempting to do Istanbul on a budget and stayed here one night. Do not recommend the area, Fatih is not a tourist area for westerners or lone women, let's make that clear. The first room I was given was on the ground level and extremely near the open restaurant area which claims to be no smoking, but my room absolutely reeked of cigarette smoke. The bed was hard, there was a hair on the top sheet and the bathroom was just showing its age. Don't get me wrong, the term 'no smoking' appears to be universally ignored here, I get it, Turks love a smoke, but I have asthma. I asked the younger man on reception if Fatih is dangerous or unsafe for lone women, he rolled his eyes so far they almost fell out and laughed at me, dismissing me as if my observation was wrong. Let's get this straight, I'm pretty savvy and have been to some terrible places, but Fatih was like visiting a reenactment of an 80s Kosovan war site. There are decrepit buildings and kids playing in rubble. Older men line the street selling objects on the floor. No doubt this hotel looks good if you're on a budget but unless you're desperate or want to cosplay third world living I'd recommend it's avoidable. A tall man working at the hotel, overhead my complaints and spoke good English. He kindly helped me move to their hotel opposite (the Herton) - it was definetly an upgrade, slightly.

My Boutique Hotel

Fatih
My boutique Hotel - what can I say a little gem of a hotel. If you want to live amongst the locals experience local life eat at very reasonably priced restaurants. Be 10 min walk from the sulimaniya mosque. 15 min walk from Emenio tram and 15min from spice bazaar then this is the place. Not only for these reasons you should book but also book for the following. The rooms are immaculate clean tidy and beautiful they all have a mini fridge. Bathrooms are immaculate with a shower and complimentary shampoo shower soap and hand soap. A hair dryer is also provided. Wi Fi in all rooms and super fast connection .The Manger Jon could not do enough for us and the rest of the team equally helpful nothing was ever too much from booking us a taxi to finding us an iron to use. Our travel agent had booked us a twin room by mistake. When we reached the hotel we asked if a double was available unfortunately there was not but where told after 3 days a family room would become available and for a very small fee we could have this one and we did. The roof Terrance has a beautiful view of the sulimaniya mosque. Over all a pleasant stay do not get put off by the street this is not the centre of a tourist place but home for locals who are very friendly I as a woman went out and about on my own and did not feel threatened or harassed. I think a few little tweaks would make this place even better. 1. Tea and coffee making facility in the room we brits like our morning cup of tea. 2. The family room we stayed in was on the ground floor for decor purposes they had a glass wall ( don’t worry you can not see in or out) however in the night when the light is on of the lobby this gave continues light into the room. A curtain would be perfect to draw at night . 3. The terrace I would of used a little more than I did if it was a little more welcoming plants some traditional Turkish sofas with cushions. 4. May be a few English speaking channels on the TV However the above are only suggestions and do not take away from the fact how beautiful this hotel was and the hospitality was superb. We are definitely looking to book again this year with our children

Fatih
I'm not sure why this hotel is only rated 4 star! it should be 5 star and more! I've stayed in some seriously expensive hotels in my time and this hotel has surpassed every other 5* hotel! the Staff were super super friendly! Rawida arranged for us to go the dead sea and the hotel even paid for our entry fee to a resort which included lunch. Rawida also arranged a 2 day trip to Petra and Wadi Rum (she booked us a tent overnight experience and I was nervous being the clean freak I am, but honestly once again it exceeded my expectations as well); rest of the reception and Security team (Shane, Raed, Hamed, Mohammed Attar, Malik, Abu Sohaib, and Ashraf) were all amazing and were so friendly and caring including the gatekeepers who would open the gate just for us to enter on foot I cant thank them enough for making Jordan an unforgettable EXPERIENCE!

Fatih
The settlement passed quickly, on a recipefully benign man. Of the pluses probably everything. Bed in the room was in hair, it was very unpleasant to sleep. I decided I would sleep in clothes. It was cold, outside smell, terrible sound isolation. Then I realized that it was a hostel (the sunk was right next to the room). There were constantly until 2 p.m. going to the toilet, in the showers and talking in elevated tones. The room had a teapot, but it was such a terrible quality that I decided not to use it. Another unpleasant rainfall left the cleaner, who came all unhappy and demanded my keys in 11.40 (i.e. 20 minutes before my departure). Why not disturb the guest and pick up the keys on the receptacle??
