The courtesy at Reception, especially Con and the supporting staff is comendable.

We were not at All satisfied with Breakfast options. It's very basic. For a Hotel of Good repute, this is the most Negative aspect of Tunel Hotel. Some of the the waiters are not at all respectful. If we ask butter for bread they say Extra. I am yet to come across a Hotel of repute who doesn't serve butter with bread. Pan cakes are given with Chocolate. I asked take away chocolate and give me Jam. They said jam will cost extra. It is really stupid. A Tourist who stays at Tunel can afford to pay 15Tl for butter but why pay for replacing Jam with Chocolate ?? Big Chef must be ordered by Tunel to be more courteous to Hotel guests and coperate with such small requests. In short my sincere advise is breakfast scope should be broadened for better rating of Hotel.

The family room was spacious with great view and everything you may need, there was a small pool and sauna which was very fun for the kids. The reception guy was very friendly and helpful.

The breakfast was definitely not acceptable and not in the level of the hotel. The restaurant “Big Chefs” was the only downside of the hotel. The number of staff may not be enough to support servicing the guests in the morning. You may need to wait until the end of your breakfast to get a tea for example. The options of the breakfast are very limited with poor quality and no taste, so it is only good to make you full for couple of hours.

I can’t speak for other rooms, but the room where we lived (on the top floor with a balcony) had such a beautiful view of the city that it completely covered all possible shortcomings. In addition, the hotel is located within excellent walking and transport accessibility from all the best places in the city. metro right at the entrance, the main tourist street with cafes and shops is a 5-minute walk

unfortunately many services offered were not available. swimming pool was very cold. the sauna was not working properly. hamam had low temperature. Breakfast is very modest, with one dish to choose from. The renovation in the room is not the newest. some things did not work, for example some sockets. problems with hot water

All the staff are very kind. The hospitality is incomparable. The location of the hotel is fantastic; you can reach Galata Tower within 2 minutes, Istiqlal Street within 3 minutes, and Sishane is only 10 seconds away from the hotel. The hotel restaurant, Bigchef, is very delicious. The view from my room (the sea view room) is incredible, with a large balcony. The room service comes every day to clean the room, and the lady is very professional. I booked my ticket for Istanbul in February, and for sure I will be back at the same hotel.

The manager gave me 45 minutes after noon to check out without any fees, and they kept my luggage in the hotel for 6 hours without any extra fees. I was very happy about that thing, and how they helped me even after I checked out. I booked my ticket for Istanbul in February, and for sure I will be back at the same hotel.

the room needs a little bit of maintenance, And after that, the place will be one of the greatest hotels in Istanbul.

Clean room, warm water all the time, efficient A/C, very good location, right next to metro station & very close to Galata tower, fast wifi, reception boys all of them very helpful, the hotel has its own parking right next to the hotel which is very convenient with all this traffic in Istanbul.

Breakfast was served in the restaurant which is next to the hotel, it's a la carte, not buffet, it was very tasty but found it limited in variety. Room was a bit small.

The staff were so nice and helpful and attentive to all of our needs. We stayed in thr junior suite which was very comfortable for 4 people and we had great views of the galata Tower which was beautiful. The location was amazing. It was right opposite the metro station so we could easily go to visit different places in Istanbul and was close to the main street and around 15 minutes walk to the sea which was busy in the day and in the evenings. There is also a rooftop bar on top which had beautiful views of the city I would highly recommend this hotel if you want to be in a quality hotel and good location in Istanbul

There was nothing we didn't like

- Location was very convenient - in the middle of the most vigorous part of the city. - As we traveled by car, the availability of a car parking (though public one) was huge plus - just 5 min walk from the hotel, and very reasonably priced (about 15 euro for 2 days). Clean, well organized and secure. - The hotel room was spacious with big and very comfortable bed. - The bedding and towels were clean and fresh.

Two things: - the shower - you need patience with the shower as water pressure is not constant, which affects not only the availability but also the temperature of the water. - breakfast - not worth at all, which was quite disappointing, considering the fact that Istanbul is famous for great food experiences. It is offered as a standard menu of 5-6 items, which limited choice would have been "ok" if it was (to say delicately) substantial. For the choice I made from the menu, I was served with a sliced into two simid bread with tiny bits of yellow cheese between the buns and a lettuce as a sider (pics attached) ... We had to pay extra for a double espresso... Certainly NOT OK !

The room was clean and furnishings of high quality. The bathroom as well. The hotel is centrally located near Taksim Square (you probably want to be either near Taksim or in the old city) and right next to a subway stop. The front desk staff was professional and friendly.

The pool and spa area is really very minimal. There is a "pool", that takes a few seconds to swim across, but is fine if you want to be in effectively a big basement bathtub. The "steam bath" and spa area smelled quite unpleasant and sour, and I would never use it. The sauna is nice and warm, probably because it's heated.

The hotel is so clean and good value for money

The breakfast is good in quality but you have to choose one choice only with juice or coffee so you have to have breakfast again after you finish hotel breakfast 😂, the side rooms in low 1st level tilll 4th levels are noisy because garbage boxes located in the side street so when trucks come to collect garbage bags from boxes in early morning and afternoon is so noisy, so i advise to stay in rooms away from side street or in high level

This is the third time i stayed in Tunel Residence. last time we stayed was in May. The staff are so friendly and very helpful. they allowed us to get a room very early at 9.00 morning which we really appreciated since we had a night flight. The location is excellent only few minutes' walk to Galata tower and taksim walking street. the metro is next door to the hotel. the nostalgic tram is few minutes. Big chef restaurant has as a branch in the hotel itself.

The only issue was the housekeeping, they were not restocking the toiletries and water in the room. i think the quality of the cleaning should be improved.
