Excellent staff.
We had a wonderful experience staying at The Elysium hotel at Taksim. Great location, food, environment but most importantly the professionalism and friendliness of the staff. The main person who went above and beyond and did of our stay an exceptional experience was Selma, at customer relations. Her unique personality and professionalism are an asset for The Elysium hotel. Highly recommend to stay at this hotel!

The rooms were dirty and the showers full of mould. Communal areas covered in what looked like years worth of dust. Dead flowers in reception. TV not working, heating in room not working, shower was cold, bed was rock hard. Checked out 4 days early. The first room I was in had the roller blind removed and the window was at street level. Do not stay here - you have been warned.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel which has a great location. Close to taksim but in a calm location. The spa is great.The reception team are great. However i had some problems with the hotel: 1-i had reservation which was to pay at property and no down payment was needed. however 2 days before arriving the hotel tried to take money from my card and they send me a message that it was declined and my reservation will be cancelled after 24 hours! I tried to contact them on expedia but they didn’t explain well. I tried to call them many many tomes but no one answered. Then expedia team helped me to cancel the reservation and book another one paid. 2- the room service and the bar check service oped my room using their card without even knocking!! This was very unacceptable! 3- i stayed for 3 nights. The room was clean on arrival. The following day the room service cleaned. On the third day it was a disaster. The room service barely even cleaned the room. It was dirty and messy and they didnt put water.
