Istanbul Hotels with Breakfast

"I booked this hotel based on other reviews. After staying at the hotel we were rather disappointed! So I will be honest no detailed. Firstly the state of the bathroom was poor , mould and bloated vanity unit. The toilet seat was broken.Shower area mouldy see pics. An unmarked dispenser of either shower gel or shampoo, cheap and poor. No other toiletries supplied other than cheap commercial soap. There is no kettle or tea/coffee provided in rooms nor is any bottled water supplied. The room was quite musty and aircon output was mediocre. Simply put room was poor but the location was fantastic , 10 mins walk away from the Blue mosque and about 15-18mins to Topkapi palace. Breakfast was hot and miss no eggs or cereal on first day nor was any fruit provided. Breakfast menu is poor and inconsistent, mainly catered around turkish pallette , you'd think they'd cater a bit better considering virtually all guests were foreign. The front desk reception folk were good especially Fatima, whom with we had good banter, and she recommended some places to visit. Overall don't expect much other than a worn bed and shower at this hotel and enjoy the sites all within walking distance. Would I stay here again , NO will look elsewhere. Owner really needs to focus on bringing the standard up and possibly charging more ,which would have meant repeat custom from me, definitely not a three star however that's based on a Turkish scale. Oh and the lift says 4 persons but only three sticklebacks allowed. The roof top terrace is cafeteria, separate, but you feel compelled to purchase as the staff approach you. The location was the only saving grace and all the cute friendly cats roaming around everywhere."

"We had a very good stay at our hotel in Taksim, Istanbul. The room was large and everything was clean and comfortable. The man at the reception Zekai was very kind and helpful. He even prepared a lunch box for us before our very early flight, which we really appreciated. The only small point is that the breakfast was not very varied, but overall everything was great. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hotel."

"The hotel was very clean. The staff service was excellent and very helpful. Thank you for helping to pick up the food from the delivery courier in the middle of the night. The breakfast was delicious and comfortable. The hotel area is very close to the main tourist attractions, and as soon as you step outside the hotel, you can immediately enjoy the beautiful restaurant atmosphere. I was very happy staying at this hotel."
