The front desk and restaurant staff were excellent. I had read some reviews on the rooms not being very nice so I paid for a superior room, hoping to avoid that. That was not to be the case. There was a lamp that was missing off of the desk hutch, many stains on the carpet and the bathroom definitely needs updating.

The room fittings were dated and the shower, in particular, was poor. Room service was fine although I was surprised at how expensive food in the restaurant is. It is a convenient place to travel to with taxis able to pick up easily.

First off there are issues with cooling / heating. We were in floor 11 and even with the heat off it was blistering hot, the system kept pumping heat in so you have to keep the window open and it’s so loud outside. Next the restaurant don’t waste money on the buffet $1800 ($50) usd for a horrible buffet and lack of staff, walk 5 minutes and get amazing food at all the nearby restaurants for a lot less. Location was good, it’s next to a high end area with lots of food. Would I stay here again, no!

Kabus gibi geçen iki gecenin ardından, kalan iki geceyi bu şartlarda geçiremeyeceğimizi anlayarak otelden çıkış yaptık. Sonrasında iade yapılmış olsa da, otelle ilgili yaşadığımız sorunları detaylı şekilde paylaşmanın faydalı olacağını düşünüyorum. Böylece konaklamayı düşünenler bilinçli bir karar verebilir ve hayal kırıklığı yaşamaz.
•Odalar çok eski ve bakımsız.
•Halılar son derece kirliydi.
•Banyo ve tuvalet ayrı ve genel hijyen seviyesi yetersizdi.
•Oda ciddi şekilde kanalizasyon kokuyordu.
•Otelde sadece merkezi ısıtma sistemi bulunuyor. Oda sıcaklığını ne ayarlayabiliyor ne de tamamen kapatabiliyorsunuz.

Gece saat 03.00’te sıcaktan nefes alamadığımız için resepsiyonu aradık. Çözüm olarak yalnızca camların açılması önerildi ve bir görevli camları açmaya geldi. Aralık ayında camlar açık uyumaya çalıştık, ancak bu sefer de dışarıdan gelen bitmek bilmeyen alarm sesleri ve yoğun trafik gürültüsü nedeniyle uyumak mümkün olmadı.

Kısacası, Hotels.com puanına güvenerek bu oteli tercih ettik ancak büyük bir hayal kırıklığı yaşadık. Aynı bölgede, hatta hemen yanındaki, puanı daha düşük olan başka bir otelde ise çok daha temiz, huzurlu ve konforlu bir konaklama deneyimi yaşadık.

Otel konumu konforlu bir deneyim sağlıyor: Hemen yanında Fişekhane içerisinde güzel mekanlar mevcut, Karaköy’e ise 15 dakika mesafede. Odalar temiz, kullanışlı, personel güler yüzlü ve ilgili. Olumsuz sayabileceğim tek konu bir akşam odama geldiğimde tuvaletin sigara kokmasıydı ama sebebini bilemiyorum. 24 saat açık bir spor salonu olması da olumlu.

If you want a warm and friendly welcome when you enter through the door then you sure are at the right place. We were kindly welcomed during check in by the front desk team, all the members of the front desk were genuinely welcoming and had great communication skillls, especially excellent knowledge of English. All the members from the front desk (the young lady who checked me in, the young man who checked me in with my new reservation and the young man who checked us out were absolutely wonderful! Breakfast and dinner buffets were delicious and had many different varieties catering to different taste buds and the restaurant team members working during the weekend were truly wonderful! I strongly recommend Novotel for their wonderful customer service!

The hotel lobby and restaurant were great, and the staff were nice, except for the first night when they refused to switch my room despite some issues like a non-working AC and safe, dirty carpets, and occasional sewage smell. I tried to get them to change my room, but gave up as I didn't even want to walk on the dirty carpet. However, they did send someone to replace the safe, and it turned out the AC was actually working, but the staff, a couple of young girls working late at night, didn't know how to help me.

On the other hand, the rest of the hotel, including the lobby, was very modern and clean. The food was decent, and the staff encountered in the days after were helpful and pleasant.

The 3 star rating has nothing to do with the staff, who were all excellent. It's more to do with policy.

I chose to stay here in Turkey to recover from an operation. I wanted somewhere modern, clean, fairly quiet with a buffet breakfast and room service.

All requirements were met. The main issue was the heating. The hotel is incredibly hot. All the time. It's 26c outside and this is considered winter, so they pump out hot air all the time. The aircon can not be activated in any room during the winter. It's April here.

So I wasn't really able to sleep or rest well as I was baking continuously.

I was also moved three times within the first 12 hours as there were electrical issues in two rooms. Which meant being on a different floor from my son who was visiting Istanbul with me.

So if you like want a hotel with aircon and your not visiting in whatever the companies idea of summer is, be ready for a hot stay
