AHG Atlas Hotel Taksim

AHG Atlas Hotel Taksim

Istanbul|1.62km from Dolmabahçe Palace
I have booked at Pera orient hotel because it offers what I want from an hotel during my travels and the feedbacks were in its favor. Just after my booking was done I stumble on a negative review that was posted on trip advisor. I was worried about my choice. But when I went to Istanbul and stayed there, I felt compelled to share my own experience, which was entirely different and absolutely fantastic! I believe it's essential to give credit where credit is due. First of all , if you are seeking a resort , Pera Orient is not a resort and it never claims to be one! My stay at Pera Orient was comfortable and pleasant. Upon arrival, I was warmly greeted by the friendly and attentive staff, who made their best to help me in every possible way and to answer my queries during my 5-day long stay. Their warm smiles and genuine willingness to assist truly set the tone for my stay. The location of the hotel is ideal. A 6 min walk from the hotel takes you to Taksim square where you can take the Metro or bus to reach your desired destination. And it allowed me to make regular daily walks on istikal street . The street is a little narrow yes, but there are plenty of hotels all around that I have never felt scared or unsafe ( as it was mentioned in the negative review). And I always took the upward direction then turn right towards taksim. I was greeted by a spotless clean room with a tasteful decor. The bed was incredibly comfortable, The housekeeping staff was attentive and meticulous, making sure that my room was impeccably cleaned each day. Coffee and tea were left daily next to the kettle (sometimes with a bottle of water). When I will visit Istanbul again , I will definitely chose Pera Orient to stay in.

Absolutely HORRIBLE experience with this host in an apartment that is OLD and OUTDATED. Don’t trust the pictures, this place is below average in every possible way. I should have read the reviews on google before booking on airbnb. The reviews there used to be reliable, but now it’s clear they are biased, highly edited, and curated to maximize profits and give ”Super-Host” status to individuals that don’t deserve the amount of money they’re charging. This is why google reviews are far superior to any other service. Just look below at how many 1 and 2 star reviews this guy got... Let me first comment on the apartment itself, so you get a clear idea of what you’ll get - The bed is cheap. The mattress springs poke out and you feel the metal springs against your back - The furniture stinks like body odor and is way too big for the tiny space - The AC and Heater do not work properly because it is a cheap, old, and manual system -The bathroom is way too small, the plumbing hasn’t been maintained and the temperature of the water is not regulated properly. -The sink in the bathroom is a slop sink. It is too small and unusable -The kitchen doesn’t have a microwave. The sink is not fully installed to the countertop -the living room floors are lopsided. The bedroom doesn’t have a window -The neighbors have loud chickens or pigeons and the sound echoes throughout the apartment 2. Now a little about this dude ”Kerem” This guy is like a used car salesman; malicious, conniving, opportunistic, and deceptive. He has been “hosting” on platforms like Airbnb for years and apparently has learned how to game the system. He managed to become a Super-Host by getting fake reviews, even though his listings are truly sub-par. The apartment is 4 times more expensive than the others in the area, but I booked a 3 night stay anyway because he was rated highly and is a “Superhost” (a designation that means less and less every-time I use it) I tried to make it work for the first two nights, but the apartment was so uncomfortable that I decided to ask Kerem for a refund for the third night, to which he agreed. Kerem wasn’t replying to my messages me on Airbnb; instead, he opted to use Whatsapp. Airbnb does not take messages on other platforms into consideration when they mediate disputes; a convenient policy for someone who might have ulterior intentions. He whatsapped me that he initiated the refund and that it would take several days to process. I assumed he was being honest so I booked somewhere else. Several days had passed I asked again about it, he said that it would take 10 more days to process. This is when I sensed something fishy; I’ve hosted people and issued refunds on airbnb in the past, it takes 3 or 4 days not 2 weeks… But I was disoriented after a surgery and couldn’t investigate the matter further. Plus, why assume the worst in people. Well, apparently Airbnb only allows guests a certain number of days after a trip to leave reviews; anot

Super location, centrally located, bus station and ferry (only 6 minutes to Üsküdar on the Asian side) is not 10 minutes walking distance. The partly steep road from the bus station back to the hotel, was, after a tip of very friendly staff, no problem anymore. The next bus stop on line 30M is only about 100 steps further above (It is very important after a long hard day). Our wish for sea view (Straight) and smoking rooms could be met. When open windows were open and somewhat noisy but closed, they were beautifully close and quiet. Change dressing room with safe, kitchen area with vacuum ... sticks, plates, ... even water cookers. Shower area with fence and enough light and several mirrors. Good hot water pressure. Except for toilet brushes all new.. Dental brushes Rasing tools shampoo, shower gel. Parbet very comfortable and quiet.. thick mattress, thick deck big, in all directions rotating flat screen. The free Wi-Fi, which did not work properly on the first day in the room at the 5th floor, was solved directly next day. Good fast reception. We have a home in Istanbul now.

The best location of the hotel. The parking lot in front of it is narrow, and the valet service can solve the problem a little bit. The only problem was that check-in was 1 hour late, other than that, I can recommend it for its location.

The room was beautiful, big and bright. The service is also very good. Good breakfast and dinner. The only thing I don't like is that we asked for a king room, but we were given a big bed made of twin beds.

The staff were amazing and helpful and so welcoming. Starting from Miss Selin who made our booking and the manager Mr Serhat they both put all there efforts to make us comfortable during our stay. I recommend them for 5 stars hotel. The hotel is in good location walking distance to supermarket, restaurants, pharmacy and even a hospital for any emergency. There is also many shops within the area. All in 5-10 minutes walking distance. Great place for families and the rooms were clean and neat. Toilets like new and very clean. We felt home even though it was our first time to travel to istanbul. Breakfast is regular but is good. Thank you :)
Meydan Besiktas Hotel
3.7/512 Reviews
Besiktas
The hotel staff is pleasant, the rooms are beautiful and comfortable with a somewhat pleasant ”vintage” style. The hotel was very comfortable and very comfortable, but it was very good to have a breakfast service for its customers despite the closure of the breakfast room in Covid. The only real problem is noise. If you are sensitive, provide earlocks to sleep because you hear a lot of cars, even at night. But honestly, at this price, it is broadly convenient.
