I have booked at Pera orient hotel because it offers what I want from an hotel during my travels and the feedbacks were in its favor. Just after my booking was done I stumble on a negative review that was posted on trip advisor. I was worried about my choice. But when I went to Istanbul and stayed there, I felt compelled to share my own experience, which was entirely different and absolutely fantastic! I believe it's essential to give credit where credit is due. First of all , if you are seeking a resort , Pera Orient is not a resort and it never claims to be one! My stay at Pera Orient was comfortable and pleasant. Upon arrival, I was warmly greeted by the friendly and attentive staff, who made their best to help me in every possible way and to answer my queries during my 5-day long stay. Their warm smiles and genuine willingness to assist truly set the tone for my stay. The location of the hotel is ideal. A 6 min walk from the hotel takes you to Taksim square where you can take the Metro or bus to reach your desired destination. And it allowed me to make regular daily walks on istikal street . The street is a little narrow yes, but there are plenty of hotels all around that I have never felt scared or unsafe ( as it was mentioned in the negative review). And I always took the upward direction then turn right towards taksim. I was greeted by a spotless clean room with a tasteful decor. The bed was incredibly comfortable, The housekeeping staff was attentive and meticulous, making sure that my room was impeccably cleaned each day. Coffee and tea were left daily next to the kettle (sometimes with a bottle of water). When I will visit Istanbul again , I will definitely chose Pera Orient to stay in.

The most racist, disrespectful and unprofessional place! I went to Istanbul for a vacation with my friend. The hotel offered us a room located at the highest floor of the hotel. The room that I booked was different than the one the receptionist gave it to me, but it was nice (it had a small sea view). From the early beginning, we encountered a problem with the elevator and we told repetitively the receptionist that we are being stuck, and he kept say okay and tamam. On the forth night, we were returning late and the elevator was stuck. We informed the receptionist and he was ”very surprised and shocked” as if it was the first time we highlighted this to him and to other staff. He suggested that he go up to our room located at the sixth floor although I mentioned that it's not feasible as I recently had a surgery in my knee and it's will cause me severe pain. He then called one of his colleagues from the other branch and they checked it, but it was in vain. It was around 2 a.m. when the receptionist told us that we have 2 options: to take another room located on the lowest floor or to wait until 7 a.m. in the morning or to stay at the lobby. I was really mad about the approach and I requested to speak with the supervisor during his shift, as I explained that both of the two options were not feasible. Then he called someone claiming that he was his supervisor and when explaining what happened. He seemed to be clueless and doesn't know anything about the hotel. Then, I asked the receptionist to give me the name and the phone number of the manager to call him from my own phone as a proof, as he was obviously playing games. I called the manager Mr.Orhan, and I told him what happened and that's not acceptable and I want to do a check-out and have a refund especially that we were staying for 10 nights. The manager asked me about my nationality and when he knew that I was Lebanese or in Turkish ”Arabça”, he told me okay tomorrow you do a check-out and you take your money and he hung up the phone. I was personally shocked by this unprofessional behavior from the owner, and my friend recalled him explaining that there's no need for such behavior especially that it's the hotel fault not ours, and he hung up the phone again. By facing such racist behavior from the owner and the receptionist who was cursing me based on my ethnicity and nationality, we didn't feel safe at all. I went very slowly on the stairs until I arrived. (it's an old hotel that is renovated, so you can imagine the height of each stair). We packed our staff and honestly speaking we didn't sleep, as we felt we might be attacked by the receptionist at any time. Around 7 a.m. in the morning, we took our baggage using the same stairs (none of the receptionist or the room service offered any help) and we waited for the manager Mr. Orhan to come. Around 10 a.m. he came and he explained that the receptionist tried to offer a good deal but we refused. I re-explained to him that I have a medica

Was snowed-in at Istanbul airport and had to find a room back in the city. The hotel i’d been staying in organised this for the night. I was pleasantly surprised. Manager waited til after 1am for me to arrive, the room was clean and quiet (though the city was shut down because of the snow storm), and it was perfectly located, 1 minute from istiklal cadessi. Would happily stay again.

The location of the hotel is superb, right on Istiklal Street. Not in the alley beside Independence Avenue. Downstairs there is a Tudor selling men's shirts and a Dogo selling shoes and bags. There is a Misir Apartment next to it, and there is a panoramic restaurant called 360 on the top floor, which is very good. It is very close to Taksim and Sishane on Line 2, and it is also very close to Galata Tower. It takes less than ten minutes to walk. The street is very lively every day, but it is not noisy when I enter the hotel, and the soundproofing is very good. The hotel belongs to studio / appartement. Coming from the airport, it is recommended to take the airport bus and get off at Taksim, which is within walking distance.

Lovely small hotel in the bylanes off Istiklal. Beautifully designed rooms and comfortable too. The bathroom was splendid (I took pictures because I loved the tiles). Great beds. Lots of in room storage. And I must mention that the room had great lighting too (dim, inadequate lighting in hotel rooms is a pet peeve of mine). Staff were friendly and breakfast was adequate. Another great thing about this hotel is the location. It's surrounded by streets filled with local book shops, art galleries, small indie artists, designers and handmade stores. Absolutely enjoyed discovering and shopping from these hidden gems. It's also walkable to some great restaurants (like Nicole). High street shopping from the likes of Zara etc. are also just a few minutes away on Istiklal street. The hotel is also surrounded by clubs and bars which play music till late, so probably best to keep this in mind and ask for a quieter room. Another thing to note is that the street the hotel is on and the surrounding streets are all on narrow steep slopes, a bit tricky to navigate after a few drinks in the evening (as I discovered), Most taxis will also drop you close-ish but not quite near the hotel because of this too. Overall though, these negatives are very manageable and didn't put us off. Would stay here again!
