The hotel is a gem for a short stay. Can't recommend it enough. The room was tidy, clean and ALL you need if you are in town on a business trip with WIFI access in all areas of the facility. Staff was very welcoming, kind and helpful at anytime. I really did enjoy the coffee (Turkish coffee) and the bawl of fruits offered free of charge to the guests. Metro and bus transportation is near by but also ask the staff for help with taxi cabs as the rates are very affordable.

The staff is really friendly and helpful. Even not all of them speak english they did all they could to satisfy our requests. The receptionist at my arrival was great. I received the room that I booked. The ladies from the kitchen were able to provide an early breakfast as I had to live earlier than the opening time of the dinning facility. Thank you for that. The location is in the heart of a typical turkish neighborhood at the end of a local shop street. If you want to feel the local vibe that's the place. Definitely will come back.

The breakfast was good but can be improved further to offer more variety. Overall it was fair.

In specific, there was nothing i didn't like. Almost everything was good and i particularly enjoyed the surrounding area near the hotel. If the breakfast can be improved and a weights room with gym equipment added due to the closeness to the central business district of Istanbul and being an on-the-go executive it is important to stay healthy.

I was not sure how long I was going to stay as I was doing hospital check ups, so I initially booked for two nights, then for one more night, and then two more nights, and the reception staff are the best I have come accros in hotels, as the moment you show your concern, it felt to me that they shared the same concern, and did everything to find a solution. So I would strongly suggest this hotel to anyone who has bussines or pleasure in the area. Thank you guys, particularly Esat.

Comfortable and clean room, friendly staff. Hotel staff speaks English, that is a big plus for Istanbul. The administration kindly helped resolving all issues. Particularly I would like to mention Deniz who works at the reception.

I have been to the hotel several times already, but the penultimate time I was not lucky with local internet connection - there were interruptions. Fortunately this did not interfere with my business trip.

Staff was so helpful and tried their best to assist me whenever I asked a question. Breakfast was better than I expected. There is a public bus stop right outside the hotel. You can reach the subway station in 5 minutes. Room was nice with complimentary water so that you can prepare your coffee inside the room.

I was expecting a better location since the hotel name indicates that the hotel is in 4. Levent.

Room was quite nice and clean. Luckly no noisy neighbors during 12 nights. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Ventilation in bathroom and air condition were quite noisy (due fact that outside were cold weather I hadn't to endure air condition during night, in summer it might be a problem). Were some troubles with wifi, but staff solved them. about location - it is quite noisy out there, it is not Hotel fault, but if you are light sleeper you should bring ear plugs. During 12 nights no one refilled liquid soap or shampoo (I had my own so didn't bother myself to ask).

Spacious clean room, huge bed, lovely walk-in shower, air con. Close to local amenities, lovely staff, perfect! While waiting for my taxi after checkout the lovely man at the counter gave me a coffee 😊 thank you!

Sometimes the street outside was a little noisy at night, but that can't be helped.

Selamün aleyküm. I would like to thank everyone without exception. Everything was excellent. The service was excellent, all distinguished by good treatment. I would like to thank the room service staff, the restaurant staff and last but not least the wonderful reception staff, especially the respected Mr. Batuhan. Thank you everyone and see you soon, God willing.
