Transportation is excellent, and the location is quite advantageous. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and cozy. There's a supermarket just 50 meters away on the right. Cafes and restaurants are also available nearby. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.

I don’t like the hospitality, thought the are is in city centre hence rest is your desicion to take this property or not !!
01.04.2026
You can walk to the city center in 5 minutes. There are restaurants, beauty salons, and shops , A good option, we recommend it

It’s good location, nice hotel. Just maybe the bed sheet could be cleaner. Otherwise all good!

The hotel's location is excellent, and it's very clean and comfortable. I stayed for three days and didn't find any flaws. I saw some negative reviews, but that wasn't my experience at all. The towels and linens were clean, and room cleaning was done upon request. You leave your key at the front desk, and your room will be cleaned when you arrive. Many thanks to Hotel La Serena. I highly recommend this hotel to all Chinese citizens.

This hotel is conveniently located about a 7-8 minute walk from Taksim Square, making it very easy to catch the metro and buses nearby. The old town alleys are bustling with various shops and restaurants, and there are convenient mini-supermarkets. The room itself is excellent, with good space and comfort. The hot shower works well, and amenities like coffee, tea bags, and bottled water are provided. There's also a mini-fridge for drinks, and the bedding is comfortable.

Booing was made for our last day on trip and flight was booked for evening hoping we can keep our luggage securely! When we check with receptionsil he just wants us to leave luggage in an open lounge! Yes that is weird and we ended up paying €20 euros on radical storage.
Hygiene is also another matter, we were welcomed with used slipper( please see attached photo), also visible stains on pillow and bath towel( thankfully my wife had extra towel)
Anyone looking for free luggage storage and Hygiene please stay Away!!

Check-in / staff: very rude front staff, doesn’t really care. New towel, toilet paper, bed sheets only after asking for it multiple times even after several days.
Location: Quite dirty and dodgy area but close to major transport
Cleanliness: Sofa with lots of stains, very dirty. Blood stains / cigarette holes on several pillows and towels
Service: non existent. See above, any basic services only after requesting several times. No room cleaning or anything. Room was cleaned after 3 days after requesting it strongly. While cleaning some of our things disappeared
Amenities: non existent
Strongly recommended not to stay here

Review – Nippon Hotel, Istanbul
I stayed at Nippon Hotel during the end of the year and New Year period. The hotel was fully booked, including many families, yet the overall experience was very good.
The service was excellent, the room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, and it fully matched my expectations. Housekeeping and staff support were professional and responsive.
Breakfast offered a good variety of options, and if something was not available, the staff were willing to accommodate special requests, which was appreciated.
The location of the hotel is also very convenient, with easy access to exchange offices, supermarkets, restaurants, and shisha cafés. Overall, it was a pleasant and comfortable stay.
I wish the hotel continued success.

On the first night, I complained to the hotel because I couldn’t sleep due to the heat (in winter time), I was tired then. They were unable to fix the air conditioner, and next morning I asked to change rooms. They moved us to another room that is smaller, for four people, but with better air conditioning. This means I paid for a Family Deluxe room of 35 m² but had to stay in a room of about 20 m². This experience is bad.
I have stayed at three other hotels in Turkey during this trip, and all of them were good. Only Nippon Hotel made my holiday incomplete. I really regret choosing Nippon Hotel; if I had read other guests’ reviews on Google more carefully, I would not have made this booking.

I had a very pleasant stay at the hotel. The property is very clean, and the staff are friendly, welcoming, and consistently helpful. I appreciated the thoughtful touches such as the welcoming fruit plates and Turkish delights, which made the stay feel even more personalized.
The breakfast was fair, with a reasonable selection. One of the strongest aspects of the stay was the team at the reception; they were always attentive, responding to guest requests promptly and professionally.
Overall, a comfortable stay with great service and good hospitality. I would happily consider returning.

Good service overall. In the rooms, the wardrobes are very small. If you plan to go with small children, you won’t be able to enter or exit with a stroller, which really annoyed me. The hotel doesn’t have parking. Breakfast is moderately good.

Edit 1: the issue is solved after a long discussion back and forth with the hotel and Booking.com.
Thanks to Nancy from the reception she is so helpful and collaborative! Without her the issue was not solved.
I just arrived today at 2 PM, and the room was extremely hot. I asked the reception to check the air conditioning, and they told me it was fixed. I trusted them and went out for the day. When I came back around 10 PM, the room was even hotter!
I called the reception again (different shift this time), and the person told me there’s no cold air, only heating, because the entire building uses central AC. Seriously? Every guest has to accept the same temperature? What if someone wants a cooler room? This makes absolutely no sense.
I told him that if they cannot provide cold air, then please refund my money so I can move to another hotel. He told me to contact Booking.com. I did, and Booking informed me that the hotel just needs to send a confirmation email to approve a refund. However, the reception refused, saying that only the reservation team can do that — and they don’t work on weekends! So now I have to wait until Monday, meaning I’m forced to spend two nights in a room at 29°C!
This is completely unacceptable. Poor management, poor communication, and zero care for guests’ comfort. I am stuck here suffering because of their unprofessional system.
Avoid this hotel unless you enjoy sleeping in a sauna!
