Pros: We stayed at Ajwa for 3 beautiful nights. We left our hearts in the hotel as it was very special and we felt very pampered by every single staff member there. The hotel is clean and has a strategic location and the atmosphere is very comfortable for any muslim couple. Special thanks for Volkan and Aykan from the conceige office who were extremely helpful and patient to all our inquires during our saty. We moved to a 5 star hotel beside Taskim as the hotel was fully booked, and felt the service and hotel facilities were unmatchable to Ajwa. You live like a king in Ajwa.

Pros: It’s a stone throw away from the main Istanbul attractions. It’s a beautiful hotel in the old city...soo much charm. The gardens are absolutely stunning and the staff are amazing. My kids received little gifts every day which they loved it made their stay so special. Concierge was soooo helpful in sorting out whatever we asked them to or helping with planning our day etc. it’s a stunning hotel and I will be back next time I’m in Istanbul !

Pros: Rooms were fabulous and, as you would hope, immaculately clean. The central courtyard is a lovely calm retreat from the busy tourist-thronged neighbourhood. Breakfast in the courtyard really set us up for the day (especially the deliciously varied Turkish breakfast). All the food we consumed, whether fish, pasta or burgers (up on the roof terrace) was excellent. There are different little treats left in the room each afternoon, very restorative after days spent in museums. The staff are uniformly charming and very helpful. Drinking in the sunset on the roof terrace to the call and response of the muezzins at Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque was an indelibly lovely experience. Would love to go back...

Pros: Very central, you don't have to book this considering most of the sight seeings are nearby, that can be done better with a day tour. But otherwise its like a treat to yourself staying here. Rather you can club your stay with the other Four seasons hotel in Istanbul. Two nights each in both the properties or rather 3 each would a perfect way to see Istanbul.

Pros: I liked the idea of a small hotel, wanted to be in that area by the Galata tower, and near the bridge that took one to all the sights, Topkapi etc. The spice market is amazing, it is truly beautiful, and such contrast to a boring and 'all in plastic' supermarket, to see mounds of foods and spices, the colors, the people the contrast that we live in. The Hotel is small but very well located, and you see both worlds, an old European 1920's architectural style on the Galata side, with lots of small cafes and restaurants, tough some of the walks but fascinating to see. The other side is the Oriental side, exceeding one's expectations , The service by a young and full of enthusiasm, smiling staff, from the minute you step into the hotel is absolutely exceptional, they can't do enough, I spend 100 days a year on the road, no high end big Hotel has this quality service. The Hotel is a reason to go back to Istanbul. The breakfast which was included, had a variety of everything, cheeses, olives, fruits, (fresh figs), eggs prepared in so many ways, nice friendly setting to start the day. Liked it all, the spacious room, the walk in shower. The High ceiling and true king sized bed, a true five star experience

Cons: Only shortcoming is how frustratingly near impossible it was to get a Taxi especially in weekends and rush hours and the hotel didn’t cross the extra mile to provide one like other Istanbul hotels that have Taxi with hotel logo parked nearby but instead they’d offer an outsourced private car that’s triple the price.

The only time that she seemed not ignoring was during our check-out. If possible, try to receive services from other staffs, avoid getting services from her if you do not want to get an attitude and ignorant response just like we experienced during our past four days three nights that we stayed at the House Hotel Karaköy.

Cons: The transportation were hard, if you are planning of going you have to know that you will be walking all the time. I was traveling with my mom and the location ruined the trip. Metros are always filled, the Streets are old mostly down and up hill so hard to walk there. The taxis don't accept to give shorts rides. We went to Bursa by the fury and we had to walk alot to the hotel. If Google showing 10 min walk there truth it will be 30 min. Also the beds wear smaller than normal single beds

Pros: Quiet street, air conditioning, good breakfast spread, and very close to historical sites, but also close to cheaper places to eat towards the west.
Cons: Two minor complaints: electricity in room only functioned with room key, so you couldn't charge your gear while out of the room; and the only English or American channel on the TV was BBC news, which seemed out of proportion to the several French & Italian channels.

Pros: The staff is extremely helpful. The breakfast spread is good and location is excellent.

7.9 Good
Pros: Very good location, professional service minded staff. Really nice breakfast.
Cons: Small room with paper-thin door towards hallway and to the toilet/bathroom. Not really possible for a person to use the toilet with any privacy at all. The shower head needed a cleaning and the was no shower curtain, so water went all over the bathroom during a shower. I tried to ask for a cleaning of the shower head (or similar) but the staff didn't seem to understand or care about the problem. AC in the room was extremely bad. Very difficult to figure out how to adjust, and even after adjusting the temperature was going up and down during the night. Not possible to turn on/off indidual lamps/light sources in the room. Possible to choose between "all on/some on/off".
8.8 Excellent
Pros: Comfortable room and very good environment. Very well located.
Cons: Everything was according expectations.
A stay at 10 Karakoy Istanbul places you in the heart of Istanbul, within a 10-minute walk of Galata Tower and Galata Bridge. Featured amenities include complimentary newspapers in the lobby, dry cleaning/laundry services, and a 24-hour front desk. Planning an event in Istanbul? This hotel has 785 square feet (73 square meters) of space consisting of conference space and meeting rooms. Self parking (subject to charges) is available onsite.
Let yourself be charmed by the magical and historical Galata area. It has been hosting different cultures and civilisations for more than thousands of years and is today accommodating some of the best hotels in Istanbul. One of the most famous historical buildings of Galata, the Baltazzi Han, built in 1836, went under a full renovation in 2017 and will be opening its doors as the Galata Istanbul Hotel by MGallery in April 2018.

Pros:
Cons: Some rooms have a few steps and then there’s an elevator which can be troubling if you have a baby, other than that the hotel was great, the staff is even better, the breakfast buffet is one of the best I’ve seen in Istanbul
5.0 Okay
Pros: Great staff, wonderful views from the restaurant and bar, and great food.
Cons: For a five star hotel this place did not live up to expectations. The staff were warm, friendly and helpful at all times. But our room left a lot to be desired. We asked for an upgrade but were told there were no other rooms available. As soon as we saw it we wished we have booked elsewhere. The view across the street was of derelict buildings covered in grafitti and crumbling. We arrived late at night and the appearance of the street made me think that the taxi driver had lost his way. The bathroom was miniscule. In fact the door kept banging into the toilet so it couldn't open fully. There was inadequate space to store the toiletries of two people. Fortunately, the staff and the views from the restaurant made up for the abysmal room but I would stay elsewhere on my next trip to Istanbul.

Cons: The service in the bar and restaurant could be improved upon. Most of the staff were good but there were a few who could do with more training. The level of English could be better, but I found that not many people spoke much English in Istanbul. More veggie options for breakfast and a wider selection of juices should be available. No apple juice!!

Major tourist attractions including but not limited to Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, Topkapi, Basilica Cistern are all in the vicinity. Grand Bazar is also not that far. Room was clean and well maintained but the one I got was comparatively small. Thanks

Room was clean and well maintained but the one I got was comparatively small. Thanks
Cons: nothing as such.

Pros: Bed very comfy. View from room stunning. Location great for metro.
Cons: The photo that sold the hotel to me of an open rooftop terrace is misrepresentation as the terrace is now not open but enclosed in a glass box. No irons is rooms which is very unusual these days and was a hassle to persuade the hotel manager to loan me one. The room aircon was noisy and inefficient at its lowest setting. The curtains didn't join and left a big gap waking me up at dawn. Reported, Confusion at check in. I had extended my stay via email, which was confirmed but on arrival the extra night was not there. On two mornings, my uneaten breakfast was cleared while I was at the counter getting tea. Then saw the waiters laughing about it.

Cons: Another customer complaining about a spec of dust on his Glass!!! Really!! Unbelievable but each to their own. I am a 44 year old and feel lucky to say a globally well travelled man and the Golden city Hotel is brilliant, I’ve been asked to comment on a negative in this section, I can only say faster lifts! Which bring you up to the beautiful restaurant upstairs who serve delicious food with pride and did I mention the views! Oh my! Early September 19:00, enjoy the sunset.

Pros: At first when I read negative comments about the location of hotel I wanted to cancel my reservation but I am thrilled that I didn't do that.The fact is that if it is your first time in Istanbul try not to find the location of hotel from Galata because it is kind of tricky in winding streets of Istanbul. The best way to get there is from Halic metro station which is in front of hotel s' Ave, there is a Pilaveci at the beginning of Ave.It only takes you 2minutes to get to your hotel.The surrounding neighborhood is commercial area so it is very safe at night however they close soon and it very quiet at night so you can sleep very well.Thank you so much Mr Galib,the manager of hotel, for your kindness and carrying my luggage and bags up to Halic metro, you made my travel unforgettable.The rooms are spacious and clean.I will definitely come back

9.6
Pros: An excellent location; a 7 minute walk from Karakoy Tramway and the Tunnel Station. The tramway goes to SultanAhmet, Serkici, and Grand Bazar. The Tunnel Station goes to Istiklal Street. So you are in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Istanbul. There are several local restaurants and grocery stores down the street. The guys at the front desk are cool, helpful, down to earth, and respectful. I stayed at the single room; It isn’t that big but TBH its not too bad for one person. It has a mini fridge, TV, bedside table, and a desk. The hotel gives off an industrial and vintage kinda vibe. It is clean, quiet, and safe. They have 24 hour front desk help. The only two problems I had were the size of the shower room. It was so tiny but clean, new, and has hot water all the time. But in their defense, I am 1.90 cm and weigh 115 kg. So if you are small or mid sized, you’re good. The second problem is that the bathroom has a sliding glass door overlooking the bed which was a bit odd and out of the ordinary to me personally. But truth be told, it looks modern and stylish. Other than that, everything, from room service/cleanliness, ambiance, safety, location, and customer service was very good.

Cons: There was no door In the bathroom, it was missing, but the reception was ready to change the room for us. Minor things - no shelf in the shower to put shower gel and shampoo, not enough hooks for towels, only one side table by a double bed, which made one person put things on the floor next to the bed. If the breakfast had a whole grain bread and a real bean coffee, it would be just perfect;) And just be prepared that if it’s rainy, all the city water comes down the slopes to the hotel location and you can’t go out! We went out and soaked and drowned till over knee height! Better wait inside:) As for the rest, the hotel is really nice and made us satisfied, and contributed to our enjoying Istanbul! Thank you!

Cons: There is a club close by, no fault of the hotels. One night was extremely noisy however, because i had requested a quiet room, once the window was shut I didn't find the noise too disturbing. Generally the area is full of steep hills but again no fault of the hotel Taxi's often found the hotel difficult to find which became less of a problem once i'd found my way around as were able to direct the taxi

Now they are claiming they didn't cancel my second reservation when they knew i stayed there and paid the extreme rate on booking.com for booking the day before i arrived! horrible administrative staff and beware of their people charging you excessive rates/fees. Not happy at all and would not stay there again should they not reconcile this.

They then cancelled our booking as they said my credit card had been declined but I have not heard from u to say it had been declined and I had offered to pay long before. Our cups were not washed everyday our tea coffee not replenished. Air conditioner not working. Flowers dead in the restaurant for our entire stay

6.3 Good
Pros: Location Good to walk around
Cons: The room space The furniture is old
8.5 Excellent
Pros: The hotel is one of the nicest I’ve stayed in around the world. It has a nice relaxed ambiance about it. Staff are mostly polite and friendly. The location is convenient in a nice neighborhood. Reception area is big and provides comfort that once you step foot inside you can feel it’s a safe haven in the very busy Istanbul. It hosts several shops and a cafe. Rooms are lovely, not small. Beds are very comfortable. Bathroom was big, clean and had basic toiletries. I would definitely stay at the Wyndham Old City Istanbul again in the future.
Cons: Upon approaching the reception we were informed that their was a problem with our booking because it didn’t show on the hotel’s system. They suggested we contact Kayak or hotels.com to solve our problem. They didn’t offer to help us by contacting them themselves although we showed them the confirmation we had several times. To be fair, once we sorted out the issue with the reservation, they upgraded our room and offered a discount on breakfast.
One of the chairs in the room had many stains on it. It looked clean but with hard-to-remove-stains. I think it’s beneath the Wyndham station to keep a stained chair in a guest’s room. The carpet had few stains as well.
3.8 Mediocre
Pros: only the location
Cons: Reception staff are not helpful at all I don’t believe five stars hotel they don’t speak English. The worst internet I ever seen in five stars hotel Food as not as I was expected. Rooms and bathrooms are too small they don’t clean it properly and they don’t change sheets every day.
5.4 Okay
Pros: There were 2 excellent aspects to the Crowne Plaza, the guest relations supervisor (Sebahat Orhan) and the concierge. The concierge was very helpful resolving a travel arrangement and Sebahat was the best guest relations person I have ever met. In fact we’re it not for her assistance resolving two hotel issues, I would have rated the hotel “poor”
Cons: The staff were generally inefficient, unhelpful and miserable. The breakfast was not up to the standard I expect from a hotel such as this.

Pros: The staff were friendly and helpful. My pillow had stains on it and was promtly changed. Hostel has a nice environment to it. Lots of restaurants nearby to choose from. There are games in the lobby area including table tennis, pool and board games. Also a quiet reading area downstairs of the lobby. For the price you pay, it is a decent accommodation. We stayed for 3 nights and it was comfortable enough. Would recommend for people not that fussy and willing to walk to nearest metro and sultanahmet square both of qhich are around 15 mins walk. Overall we enjoyed our experience but would understand if this was not upto others standards.

5.8 Okay
Pros:
Cons: some staff wasn't really that nice, with some rough answers to normal questions we posed. The breakfast was not that good: everyday the same thing, with no possibility of choosing not to bring smth, or to bring more of another smth, because the plates were already predefined and wrapped up in plastic; and sometimes the food was not freshly cut...
3.8 Mediocre
Pros: Clean dorm room.
Cons: The dorm room was too cramped. The one we were in had 6 bed and all of them were occupied due to which there was hardly any space for anyone in the room. Out of the 4 staff members we interacted with, none of them were able to help us with basic information. If you happen to use the washroom in the morning, the cleaning staff will keep banging the washroom door till the time you don't leave. The height of the bunk is small you will keep banging your head against the top bunk accidentally.

We got there and we were utterly amazed at what they did (see pictures). They put us in a suite that had jacuzzi and the had decorated our rooms and left drinks and a small cake and a personalised letter. Wow!! We were blown away!! You cannot beat this! The food was fantastic the service was amazing there was coffee between 15:00 to 17:00 we only had time to take this once as we were out most days. The location is central by the sea the experience for us was amazing. We went to the market which is just next to the location really ideal. Special thanks to Saida who looked after us during our stay.
