Location
Located in the Bağcılar district of Istanbul, Wanda Vista Hotel sits 14 km from the city center and about 24 km from Istanbul’s new airport. The Bahariye metro station is only 1 km away, making it accessible by public transport. The hotel is approximately 9 km from Atatürk Airport. Its location is somewhat removed from major tourist attractions like the Blue Mosque or Istiklal Avenue, requiring up to 40-50 minutes by car due to traffic. Nearby, guests will find Istanbul Mall and a small convenience store. The surroundings are quiet and residential, with a Chinese restaurant called 'Wanhao' on-site offering good but pricey food.
Tips
- Book a room with a confirmed functioning air conditioning unit and check maintenance responsiveness upon arrival.
- Bring your own laundry detergent if staying in a residence unit with washer/dryer, as none is provided.
- If you plan to explore the city center, consider arranging private transport due to the hotel’s distance from major attractions and public transit limitations.

Reviews
1. Upon entering, the room was incredibly dirty. It looked like someone had just used it and they did a really superficial cleanup. The bathroom sink hadn't been cleaned at all, and the floor hadn't been mopped.
2. The air conditioning was broken. We set it to 30 degrees Celsius, and it ran all day, but their maintenance staff came and said there was nothing they could do. We asked the front desk multiple times to switch rooms, but they refused.
3. When I checked out, the front desk asked for my booking number. Once I found it, he said he needed to look at it, then grabbed my phone and started scrolling through it. I asked him what he was doing, and he said he wanted to leave a review. I then asked him why he was trying to leave a positive review without my permission? It was absolutely disgusting and infuriating.
4. When I went to store my luggage, they told me I had to pay 400 Lira. I asked them why they were charging, and they just said, 'That's just how it is, take it or leave it.' So I paid. However, the hotel booking site clearly stated that luggage storage was free. Who exactly is scamming us here? The hotel or Trip.com?
Breakfast also good
It lacks a fresh coffee machine which can make big difference
Notice. Only issue staff for non sense keep knocking door asking or checking which is annoying
This was one of the worst hotel experiences I have ever had. I strongly warn everyone NOT to stay here.
My very expensive diamond ring was stolen from my bag inside the room by housekeeping. When I reported this serious issue, the security manager simply said “we trust our housekeeping staff” and refused to investigate or even tell me who entered the room. No help, no responsibility, no professionalism. This is extremely unsafe. The only people who tried to help us were the police, who started the process to find the person who stole from us.
The room was dirty, old and smelled bad. Furniture looked worn out and the curtains looked like they had not been cleaned for years. Hygiene standards are unacceptable.
The heating situation was a complete disaster. Reception told us they would send someone to fix it, but nobody came. I called three times and no one cared. We asked to change rooms. The second room had no real heating system, only air-conditioner heating. It was clear the hotel had closed the main heating system to save money, which is unacceptable for a hotel claiming to be 5-star.
The elevator looked broken and unsafe. Maintenance is very poor.
Service was terrible. Bellboy and valet staff were not helping guests. They were busy talking while guests waited with luggage and cars. Completely unprofessional.
The management of this hotel is extremely poor and does not care about guests’ safety or comfort. I request the hotel owners and authorities to seriously inspect and control this property. If this hotel is not properly controlled, it should be closed permanently.
This hotel should not operate as a 5-star hotel. I will never return.
