Hotels Near Selin Sokak Parkı in Istanbul

Although I agree with the fact that not all staff speak English. I don't see it as an issue. With all the translator Apps available and the universal language of a smile and patience it is easily overcome. ( I mean if we read an article whereby a Turkish person complained that the UK hotel he stayed in no one spoke Turkish; I'm sure the outcry would not be to defend him) I digress. The hotel staff I found to be helpful and patient with me. I am a recent widow still struggling with the loss of my husband. Two staff members in my opinion went above and beyond. The Main Chef Eüyip and one of the Managers Mertin. Due to needing special diet. Every morning at Breakfast Eüyip prepared mine fresh. I never felt it was a problem. Also he's English is superb May I also say the food was delicious. The variety surpassed any other hotel. Martin also was always there with a smile and helping hand. Rooms roomy and clean. House keeping came everyday. Fresh water coffee/Tea for the room replenished every day. Also the option of a smoking/non smoking room is available. Travelling without my husband after over 30 years together this two men made me feel safe and secure PS ( get the two together they are a right comedy act everyday I saw them they made me smile)

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.

I came to İstanbul for work and stayed at the hotel for 2 weeks. The rooms are clean and pleasant, the food isn't very good but you don't get hungry. The hamburger's cake was a little strange, they used cake cheese for pizza was a little different room. There is no mayonnaise in the hotel. Ice machines are constantly disrupted. They sell alcohol in the lobby restaurant, but you can go out to drink in the lobby and drink in your room. Be careful while sitting down from the air-conditioning on the lobby restaurant's ceiling. They may have been up to date when they ordered the account and asked him to pay before the food came. 🤣 The only person in the hotel with a rosary is the receptionist, Ms Özlem. If you're just going to use the hotel to sleep, you can try, but I didn't think it deserved the price.

My friend and I were staying at Mount Ararat Hotel for three nights. We were welcomed by friendly and helpful staff. Even though we barely stayed in our room, the room had everything what we needed after a long day outdoors. The beds were very comfortable, the place was clean and so was the bathroom. There were a lot of restaurants nearby and during the evening the neighbourhood became very lively with locals and tourists. We were happy that after a tiring day we could grab some food and drinks with our hotel in the close proximity. On our last evening Saleh helped us arranging the transport to the airport which was top-notch! On the other hand, we had an arrangement with breakfast included and it was slightly disappointing. It was buffet with various choices of food and drinks but my friend and I are a little bit fussy. We preferred to grab something on our way to the city centre. It is not a deal breaker though. All in all, good value for money. We were satisfied about our choice and would definitely come back.

Good quiet area , with quite a few shops around .Cheap taxis £5 to Grand bazaar. Not too far from a mall . The room was very clean , got cleaned every day, water and coffee /tea provided . Very professional and polite staff . Good value for money.

To begin with, now this hotel is called DNZ TAXIM FERİDİYE HoTEL. I booked a stay for three nights through booking in a deluxe room. Upon arrival, we were given a different room that did not match the description and photo when booking. We returned to the administrator with an attempt to explain that the number was clearly different. He looked for our reservation for a long time, found it, and eventually gave us another room. It was larger and similar in size to the one in the photo, but it did not match in appearance. We were told that there were no other rooms available. In the end, I had to stay in this room. Then we began to examine it in more detail and were in a slight shock. The point was the condition of the room itself: the door trims were broken off, the walls were all chipped to the ground, the sink was loose, the shower hose was frayed, the faucet that was kept on parole. The faucet and fan just stuck out of the wall, everything above the doorway in the bathroom was smeared with cement without any kind of decoration (everything is in the photo). Towels are dirty, with lipstick residue and holes. Bed linen was also in question. The price included breakfast, which again turned out to be not the same as in the photo on bo***********A photo of breakfast is also attached to the review. The main thing there is half a loaf. Arabs work at the front desk, who know a couple of words in English, that is, it is extremely difficult to communicate with them. And finally, the cherry on the cake. We decided that we could not stand here for three nights and leave after two nights. As a result, the administrators canceled our reservation when we checked out, and sent information to booking that we supposedly did not check in. In general, they simply deceive people! I do not recommend this hotel to anyone!

Perfect stay in central of istanbul. Walking distance to Taksim and Galata Tower. Sishane metro and Tophane tram station are also nearby. Room was clean. The only thing we need maybe an electric kettle inside the room to make tea and coffee. And also more variety in the breakfast

Moss suite is near Taksim square without needing to walk uphill/downhill which is a bonus in Istanbul and was reasonably priced. The family room was spacious with one queen bed and 2 single beds and a sofa bed. All the staff was very polite and helpful but unfortunately there was an issue with the air conditioning of our room during our stay, they were awaiting parts. All the staff tried to help with a fan, access to a smaller room to sleep and late check out on the last day. Other than that toilet can be a bit more cleaner, rest of the suite was nicely done.

An excellent hotel located in the heart of all the main attractions in Istanbul. The embankment with all directions of routes is 15 minutes away. Egyptian market, grand bazaar and much more. Cleaning and change of towels every day. The receptionist is all friendly. Breakfast is monotonous, but standard for Turkey. I recommend the hotel.

Class act for airport shuttle, this modest hotel ticks every box. First of all, kind thanks to Syrian neighbour Ahmed with his gift of languages to offer in as guide and translator. A quiet room in this tiny street too narrow to permit Vespa buzz and taxi honk was paramount. Closeby is the coach shuttle at €3.20 to Istanbul Airport...clock the luggage tag process and masked duty. Excellent. My room had an epic view of the city and so high up, traffic is undetectable. So clean, well fitted, safe and decent. I slept a needy 12hrs. Aircon and fridge are silent and linens were fine.
