Hotels near Filizli Mansion in Istanbul

Not a good hotel, but the best one 😀 I wanted to stay more in this IHG Property to experience more of their hospitality. Their employees are very keen on details. Delivered what has been promised and you can feel their teamwork and love for their respective tasks. Sumptous food, lots of varieties, so tasty, room is very clean, washroom also you cannot detect dust to be honest and comfortable pillows and bed I had the best sleep with this hotel during my entire holidays in Turkey. The location is just perfect to stay away in the busy central area of Kadikoy. Friendly hotel Chauffeur also available and helped me a lot to go to airport with the best price and very safe. Highly recommended, special mention to Erbal and Omer. Thanks again for the wonderful short stay.

Moda Drei was fine for a few days. The dorm was nice and large with great AC, and the lockers are huge, really good (although their electronic locks beep loudly whenever locked or unlocked which isn’t great if the room is asleep). The beds have lovely big shelves with reading lights and a power point, and privacy curtains. The WiFi is decent, not consistent but generally fine. There are some very cute cats that live there, which I loved, although some may not be so keen on this. I have to say other than this, I felt generally underwhelmed/disappointed with this place, and don’t understand all the glowing reviews for it. I feel like the way it’s advertised (from their photos/online blurb they want to be seen as a chic concept hostel/workspace environment), vs. what it actually is, is quite different. Covid probably hit these guys hard which is sad, and when they opened a few years back this place probably was very modern and cool, but right now it’s pretty dirty and messy and has more of a student house vibe (after a house party…). The walls, stairs and doors everywhere are grotty, the common areas are small and dishevelled with big stains on most of the upholstery, and the small kitchen is usually in a gross state, really filthy, with a fridge too small for the amount of people staying and nowhere else to store dry food. No paper towels or anything in the toilets to dry your hands, and nowhere in the showers to put your stuff or hang your clothes properly. The toilets were the worst - two for each floor, always dirty and disgusting, some with broken toilet seats, some with locks so old and worn they jam (I had to help free someone stuck inside on one occasion). The place is run by volunteers (other travellers) who live there, and it shows - a proper staff and cleaners would probably keep the place in a much better state. The volunteers are generally lovely, one or two give off a very weird vibe though (the guy with the dreads in his beard). The location itself is OK, it’s technically in Kadikoy and there is a cool coffee shop or two and supermarket nearby, but most stuff of interest, as well as the ferry and bus terminals, are a 15/20 minute walk away. The street itself is a building site, the entire building next door is just a concrete shell with builders and drills working from 9am everyday which doesn’t make for a fun waking up experience. The vibe at the hostel is also quite dull, a mix of slightly aloof digital nomads and solo travellers, and there are also no social activities from what I could see. Overall while I wouldn’t return, I wouldn’t dissuade others from coming as it may be more to others’ tastes than mine, and wish these guys all the best. The hostel is fine for short stays, but there are probably others that are much better in Istanbul.

Amazing location, close to Kadıköy pier. From Kadiköy you can easily reach European side or islands by ferry. Hotel is new, very clean and modern. Friendly and helpful staff. Really huge room. Highly recommend this place to stay.

The staff were friendly and the facilities were clean. Sometimes they forgot to fill up the provided supplies, but I was able to get them right away when I told them. The owner of this place said he also runs hotels in other places. The owner was also very friendly.

New hotel and very clean. There are amenities other than toothbrushes. Transportation is convenient as there are buses and trains nearby. I want to stay 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

Everything is brand new and spotlessly clean! The hostel is located in the Asian part of Istanbul and is on the 6th upper floor. There is a supermarket ”BIM” on the ground floor - very convenient. The underground station ”Bostanci” (line M4) is within 5 minutes walking distance. and goes directly to the airport ”Sabiha Gokcen SAW”. Great location! The bed and pillows were very comfortable, rarely had such a comfortable pillow. Extra thumbs up for it. Each bed has a socket and a small reading lamp on the headboard and a no basket on a wall lattice. Everything was very thought out! Bed linen, toilet, shower were also very clean! Mert, the host is extremely helpful, attentive, open-minded and the team also makes a great effort to make the hostel guests feel comfortable. Safe and welcome feeling of living! Hospitality excellent! Co-working area is well equipped. Great wifi, work stations, meeting room - everything there. The digital nomads that were on site were thrilled and are partly there for another time. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking. If you want to join a WhatsApp group via a QR code - through this group, various activities are organized/communicated. Great atmosphere in general. Will book here again for the next Istanbul stay! Thanks for the great service!

Hotel in Taxim Square, in a location that serves the movements in the city center and you find many shops and restaurants, rooms with no view and with a lot of noise from the street. The breakfast is poor, only the view from the morning room is worth it.

This hotel, run by friendly people gave us exactly what I miss in big hotel chains: the extra personal touch and great service. The room was big and cosy (we chose the 3 persons room for the 2 of us) and the room looked exactly as shown in the pictures. The bathroom was on the small side but very clean, modern and all brand new. Blow dryer available. The bed slept wonderful (cotton beddings). The cushion was a bit high for me but at home I sleep with a very thin cushion so I don't have a regular taste on this. Breakfast is not included but you can order it at a reasonable extra cost. I had my breakfast every morning here at the hotel, (despite the nice cafe's in the neighborhood!) because this was the best breakfast ever! Every morning a different fresly baked (glutenfree!) bread. Besides that, a varation of delicious Turkish bites (don't know the name of). Olives, dried tomatoes, dried fruits, handful of nuts, every day different eggs (cooked, scrambled or fried at your liking), labneh (sort of cream cheese), yoghurt, honey. All freshly made and very tasty. Don't forget to taste the turkish tea or coffee. This breakfast was absolutely the best way to start the day in Istanbul; highly recommended! The hotel owner helped us with airport transfer, but also made the extra mile in helping us out with buying tickets for a concert. This kind of help is what makes the difference for your stay in Istanbul because not too many are English speaking and I don't know Turkish ;-) Overall a very pleasant stay and a highly recommended hotel for the extra personal service, the breakfast and all this in the best neighborhood of Istanbul: Kadiköy.

It's a nice looking hotel, very clean with comfortable beds. There is daily cleaning free of charge. They have a fan and heating but not air conditioner but it was good for me because I stayed here during autumn time. No kettle inside the room but you can request hot water at the reception or use the kettle in the kitchen area at -1 floor. They have a laundry room, have to pay 20TL at the reception counter, they will give you detergent as well. The only issue with me was the thin walls, i could hear the neighbors snore loudly 😅 In terms of location, there are nice restaurants and cafes nearby. There is a small-medium sized mall nearby which is good. Bus stop is 3 minutes walking distance, but no metro station that is walking distance. Also no tourist attraction nearby annd it's quite far from taksim, but it was convenient for me to go places woth public transport. For the price it's worth it.
