Good staff and breakfast, location is fair, room was clean but it was not conditioned properly and it was noisy which makes it not appropriate for rest. Generally the hotel should be considered as average 3 star hotel

Good hotel but remember it's an old hotel.
Good facilities however the hotel is old. So don't expect new 5 star. The decor and wear and tear definitely shows. Also the noise travels quickly. Staff here are excellent and friendly. Quick to help. The staff here make up for the building being old and worn out. Bathrooms need a refurbishment or at least a new mastic seal all round.

The Rotta Hotel looked great on the website with the pictures etc but to stay in was not all that great. The best thing about the stay was the breakfast which unfortunately was an expensive add on. There was a children's pool but it was drained and could not be used. To go into the pool a head bonet was required to be purchased at 250Lira which was not worth it. There was a spa area with steam room and sauna but unfortunately the stream room had an awful mould smell and the hotel did not offer any towels in this area. You had to bring your own towels from the room. The hotel booking was for a triple beds room but they don't have any rooms with triple beds which means someone is sleeping on a very thin mattress as the extra cot bed is brought into the room to make it a triple bed room. The housekeeping staff were never available and so they never answered their phone which meant I always had to call reception. I had to call everyday several times for a housekeeping request and only once out of the four night stay did I get housekeeping to follow through on my request the rest of the times I just kept calling reception until I gave up on my request which was very disappointing. The hotel staff mostly do not speak English, for a high rated hotel I was disappointed by this as communication was not the easiest with the staff. Overall, I didn't use the facilities offered and I would not stay here again as the cost of the stay was not worth it due to the issues raised.

Cold welcome when we arrived. No smile from employee at check in desk. Didn’t give us any information about pool or breakfast timings. Bellboy parked our car and then takes us to our room where he tells us we need to pay for breakfast. I refused as I paid extra to include it in my booking. He refused and we both went back to the check in desk. I showed my booking to them all but the employee at the desk is STILL refusing and telling me breakfast is not included when it clearly states on my booking it is. After whispering with another colleague he apologises and said it is included - only because his colleague said, NOT BECAUSE IT CLEARLY STATES ON MY BOOKING that breakfast is included. Room had one tiny bottle of shampoo conditioner lotion when we have booked a room for 4 people. There should be at least four of each. When we went swimming they charged 250TL for a cheap head cap. I understand it’s policy but 250TL??? I’ve paid 100 at a much better hotel in a more popular area of Istanbul. Pool was nice but advertised a childrens pool, it was empty (no water). Rooms were not sound proof. Felt like windows were open too. The breakfast was nice and staff at breakfast were very friendly and helpful. Overall, wouldn’t stay again. Felt like we overpaid for this stay. Definitely wasn’t worth it.

Fantastic Stay at Rotta Hotel Istanbul!** I recently stayed at the Rotta Hotel Istanbul and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The location is perfect – close to public transportation and key tourist attractions, making it easy to explore the city. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to assist with any requests or questions. The room was spacious, clean, and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay, including fast Wi-Fi, a cozy bed, and modern amenities. One of the highlights was the breakfast buffet, which offered a delicious variety of local and international options. The view from the rooftop terrace was simply breathtaking, providing a stunning panorama of the city. Overall, I highly recommend Rotta Hotel Istanbul for anyone looking for a comfortable, affordable, and well-located place to stay in this amazing city!

Definitely not a 5 star hotel, car park not fit for purpose, damaged the underside of my car going in and out it. No one to help with the bags when checking in, had to do it myself, the receptionist couldn’t care less, WiFi not working most of the time, constant power cuts in the room. Breakfast selection was rubbish, no chocolate Nutella for the kids, kept blaming suppliers, how hard can it be just to go to your local market and pick one up instead of saying no to your customers, Housekeeping non existent.
