Hotels near Bostanci Train Station, Istanbul

Checked in no problem. Room was on the 1000 level. The room was fine. Comfy enough bed, decent shower, a little dark but fine. However, at 0044 I had not long fallen asleep and was awoken by some music. To begin with I could not figure out where the music was coming from, I called reception and found out that there was a function on and the music was coming through the walls. The receptionist told me that he would sort it out. He must of as I managed to fall asleep for 10 minutes. 20 minutes later, the tunes came back on but even louder, again I called down to reception. This time I told him if he cant get the music sorted I wanted a room move. he said he'd call back in 5 mins. By this time (0115) I had enough after been travelling since 0600 and up for work at 0800 I was not wiating any longer. I packed what I had left to pack and went down stairs to get moved. Where I had the most uncomfortable experience with the receptionist. I told the guy I wanted a room change, he said he was sorry he didn't have any. I stared at him rather displeased as you would at that time. I said well, what do you suggest?! The volume was ridiculous. After sending the bellboy down to request a volume change again, he shuffled avoiding eye contact and moving around papers. I think he just thought I was going to shrug my shoulders and go back to my bed. I stared at him for a minute more and raised my voice, asked him what the hell is happening? Its nearly 0130 and am standing here tired as F**K, demanded he better sort something out or I wanted the manager. After some more awkwardness he then produced a key card for a different room. I told him all that nonsence in the last ten mins could easily have been avoided. If he didn't lie to me and say there were no rooms. The room ended up being really quiet, however it was like an oven and I could not get it cool. I was knackered so fell asleep anyway. That mattress will need a few days in the sun to dry out the amount I sweated in it. I went down to breakfast in the morning it looked like an ok spread but I was still not in the mood. The bill was already fixed by my company so I didn't even complain to the staff in the morning. I will be telling my company not to use this place again.

I am myself a hotel manager but since I am accompanying my sister for a cosmetic treatment, I had no say on on the hotel choice Regardless though the hotel I represent as a manager is neither perfect, here are a few observations I am currently in room 1201 and still got another 8 nights to go, so my views may change and they will be duly revised Starting from the bad… Reception - the most unfriendly and unhelpful department I ve encountered so far. This is the department who should lead by example in these terms yet while every department I ve encounter have been great (housekeeping, food and be beverage, spa) … this department lacks the welcoming factor. Sad as reception often leaves the first and last impression. Breakfast - basic but good quality. Can’t ask for more Spa - I still have to try this but the attendant who showed me around was helpful and patient. Thanks to his approach I will definitely give this place a try Room is big, comfortable and well equipped… cleanliness upon checkin not as great … yellow stained silicon around shower, hairs of previous occupants, dusty accessories. The industry is suffering and while I Am mentioning this, I am ready to close an eye Highlight of hotel - by far - the rooftop restaurant … the lamb shank was to die for and definitely best lamb ever… service is 10 out of 10 and 2 people stand out by far … girl with glasses working on Tuesday 11th evening shift … and the ever so amazing and charming Mohammat… impressed and equally jealous of their customer approach. These are people I would hire in a blink of an eye, Mohammat, especially I look forward to spending the next 9 nights here. Turkey is amazing but the Turks are even greater Room 1201

On the one hand, there are some advantages, but to everyone you need to make a reservation: interesting design of rooms, as if modern, quite spacious - but already tired state, ergonomics on 3; close to the sea - but on the embankment of direct access is not, close to go, through the construction; next to the famous Bagdad Avenue, but not the best part of it, go through the garbage, construction.. Android on TV, but even the utube is not always pulling.. To get from here everywhere by taxi is necessary - in the European part in the morning 250 lira, in the evening back - 400~500 ((With transplants, metro, ferry - it is difficult, savings is not possible. Staff, cleaning 4-/3+.. And so the place is not bad, yes)

Overall good place to stay, some staff don't speak English but as a workaround showed me exactly what they wanted to communicate by using Google translate Only slight negative I had was the rooms weren't sounds proof, very far from it.

I had jacuzzi problems every time I stayed in the last three rooms, but I never used them. The last time, the jacuzzi stayed not, the same salary was paid again. They could download the standard charge this time, but we wanted it to be done the next day. I was kicked out and called out from outside and even received his confirmation. Otherwise, another room block was done. We returned to the hotel and we saw the jacuzzi still not sticking. And there is no other room. Price performance is terrible. He did not meet any expectations. The only good thing is the worker. But job tracking and job finishing is zero. Review your technical team.

As a couple who usually stays in apartments, I highly recommend it for both price and cleanliness and hygiene performance. We would like to thank the friends there for providing a romantic night and welcoming us with a smile. The location and route are very good.

It found this hostel by accident, and I can say it was a really good choice! The hostel manager Mart and the staff were so welcoming, really took care of everything I need and more, it was beyond just sleeping in a place, they really made me feel like it’s a second home, I can say I really recommend this place and promise you won’t regret 😝

It is very bad stay i will never forget the worse few nights i stayed there, it is terrible in all means starting from management to the lsmallest room attendees They rip people off as visitors should obtain positive confirmation from the hitel in order to allow to change the stay and will never refund . I never recommend this terrible hotel to anyone and should be removed from booking websites

Advantages, great location Close to all sizes of brands, suitable for shopping, serving Turkish style is very warm. Disadvantages, the room quilt is stuck with some flying bats, it feels not too good, the quilt is a little hard and uncomfortable, the house facilities are quite old, the balcony door is not locked, and the safety of a girl alone will be insufficient, due to the proximity to the shopping street. Sleeping at night is inevitably a bit noisy, like a quiet little friend needs to think twice. The hotel does not provide breakfast, it can be eaten nearby, it is very suitable for bringing children, the room is big enough

Concierge: When we arrived the concierge service were absent but our airport transfer driver had to help us and looked for the assistant. Later the assistant helped us all the way to the room ☑️ Reception : A warm welcome provided and Hasan was very helpful, friendly and made us feel valued and kindly accepted my request and offered me a sea 🌊 view room for our long stay. ☑️ Room: It was very good size, amenities was fab, king size bed and other facilities was TipTop. Linen and comfort of the mattress was terrible. Too firm matters and polyester mix linen, never had a good night sleep 😏😴 Spa: Used it for Turkish Hammam and full spa service . Reception at the Spa I would rate a big Zero ‘0’. Masseur Wayan was wonderful I would rate her 10/10. Spa reception doesn’t speak good English and they are rude and make your Spa experience rather stressful than relaxing ❌ Management needs to work on that area. Swimming 🏊‍♂️ Pool: You need to pay 70 Turkish Lira for head cover to access the swimming pool and they will tell you that just before you enter the pool, be ready to pay there and then. Swimming pool temperature was nearly zero! Super cold water . I had to use the Sauna and steam room to heat up the body before I could go in the swimming pool ❌ Breakfast 🍳: Very nice and specious Elite Restaurant. Food choices was great, very helpful staff, cleanings and atmosphere was excellent ☑️ The Grill: Restaurant at 15th level was good, value for money . Could’ve improved with foods choices & service ☑️ Room Service & cleaning : Very good ☑️ Overall: It was a good experience minus the Spa and bed comfort it was good. (Bed & Spa caused minus ⭐️⭐️)
