This property was truly one of the worst I’ve experienced in Istanbul even though I’ve been here several times. The staff were some of the rudest people I’ve come across and very in your face type. I went to the front desk staff to address my concerns about our room regarding the cigarette Oder the staff told me that they were sold out and couldn’t accommodate my request. I requested to speak to management and was told that the GM of the hotel was on a 10 day vacation and they did not have anyone else to have taken a leadership role. I will never visit this location ever again.

I don’t understand some of the bad reviews of this hotel, to me it was excellent all the way. Staff were excellent, very helpful. Only thing i was not happy about it was they made bone wear in the pool mandatory however you have to purchase it which is no big deal. They have a very nice hamam, sauna, steam room etc. Very close to Taxim Square, in fact next to it. I am glad i chose this hotel and I believe some of the bad reviews are not realistic.

The only thing that I didn't like about the property was that it is old. I don't mind a building that it is old, as it should be in the center of a historic city, but I expected the carpets to be clean and fairly new for the price and for a name called Elite! This hotel chain has other buildings which are truly nice, but not this one.
