The Marmara Pera

10/10 Excellent

"Great location can walk straight into the nice side streets to start exploring. We hired a car and was busy area to navigate but was greeted with a member of staff who helped with bags and parked my car for me. Was a nice touch. Didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment but was very happy with hotel and would stay here again."

Sofitel Istanbul Taksim

6/10 Okay

"Love the Sofitel brand and have stayed at many of their properties around the world. On the surface, the hotel is great. Spacious rooms, excellent washroom and shower, clean and modern design. The staff are friendly and attentative. All things I come to expect from the Sofitel brand. Not to mention the location: A+. But when you stay a few nights, this was the experience: Poor temperature control: Control pad in room does nothing with the fan speed or temperature changes. This was the biggest fault for me. Had to call front desk to have maintenance adjust temperature on their end. Some nights after a call to front desk, the AC didn’t even come on at all. Other nights you ask for it to be set to 21 celsius, the temp. drops to 20 then 19 then 18. For a luxury property, temperature control in the room should be non negotiable. It was the biggest strike during my stay. TV malfunction: TV kept turning off by itself after a few minutes. Asked front desk to have it looked at. An employee came up, reset the TV and simply said to call him again if it doesn’t change. The problem remained By Day 3, we had enough and stopped calling. Room safe: the back panel keeping the batteries in place was broken and wouldn’t lock in place. Again, mentioned to front desk on the first day but nothing was done. Couldn’t keep our valuables (cash, jewellery, passports) safely away. All in all, the staff seem to try but issues were never resolved. Overall dissappointing."

Elite World Istanbul Taksim

2/10 Terrible

"The cleanliness, breakfast or services did not meet 5 star standards. I have stayed in many 5 star hotels and this is around 3 star worthy. We had a wet carpet for our entire stay and hotel staff clearly just didn’t understand or try to understand what we was saying. We had to request new towels daily & our room was only cleaned once on a 4 night stay. Cleaning staff enter the room despite the clearly displayed sign left us feeling uncomfortable and unsafe, on two occasions (one morning) and we do not believe this was handled appropriately at all. We were additionally disappointed with the breakfast. The breakfast selection had very little variety. Although we paid for breakfast as part of our stay, we only ate there once and ended up purchasing breakfast elsewhere for the remainder of the trip due to the poor experience. Spa tried to charge us full price despite online stating 20% off for people staying in the hotel - when queried she offered 15% off instead - booked this hotel for the spa experience and did not end up doing! Located in a good place where most things are walking distance."
