Reviews
Ferry station... walking 3 to 5 mins a lot of restaurant
There are buts!!!
It is incredibly annoying that hotel management outsources parking services to third-party people!
It seems like the minute you drive in, the Valet Parking guys are chasing you to pay almost as high as 10% of the overnight rate just for parking!!! Even though you prefer self-parking, the result remains the same.
This had happened to us during our 3 previous stays.
Breakfast was one of the best until a few months ago, and it is very noticeable that the food quality and variety are declining.
I usually prefer not to write lengthy negative comments, but as a HH Gold Member, I am losing sympathy for this hotel due to the mistreatment of its guests.
Hope hotel management will take care of their guest as well as taking care of third party valet parking people.
The hotel is in a perfect location for shopping , restaurants , boating , anything tourism!
Would definitley stay here again without a doubt and recommend to anyone travelling to Istanbul.
This hotel completely ruined our trip. The staff are incompetent, careless, and treat guests like nobodies. We booked two rooms under the same name to be close together, but they put us on different floors. One of the rooms reeked of chemicals.
At reception, they smile politely but don’t solve any problems. They don’t care that you’re on vacation. The photos online do not match reality. The rooms lacked even the basics — no bathrobes, no toothbrushes. The phone in the room didn’t work, so we had to run downstairs every time.
The worst part: dirty towels with fresh lipstick stains. That is beyond unacceptable. When we complained, no one bothered to listen. It feels like the staff just wait for you to give up and leave.
In all my travels, this is by far the worst service I’ve ever experienced. If you want to ruin your vacation, waste your money, and feel completely disrespected — welcome to this so-called “hotel.”

Also take room the key with you everywhere as the doors closes you cant get in to the room.
I was lucky and slept in bunk bed on my own, no co-livers in that night.
Also a neverending party noises outside as its busy street. But if youre a party person - would suite good for your needs.
Pretty hard to find entrance, as the street cafes chairs are in front of it.
Very nice Hostel in middle of Kadiköys Center with a highly recommendable rooftop!
The rooms were really clean and the staff was very nice and courteous!
They also have earplugs for the loud night
Pro:
- we had a fan although chose a room without ac. This was great, and we didn’t miss the ac (September), although if we opened the window the street was very loud.
- really great location, nice ferry ride to the historical peninsula, easy to reach by public transport
- very good breakfast on the rooftop included in the price
- neighborhood was very nice, active, with many restaurants and shops, very vivid
- all that we needed, at a good price.
However
- the room was really small, only the most necessary equipment and room available. Do not expect a spacious place, but a nice place to stay if you wish for a great price/value deal
Con:
- Do not choose a room without a window (they are tiny, and claustrophobic)
I stayed at the 6 beds doorman. It was quite a tight room with no AC and furniture.
The bar at the rooftop is an amazing journey.
