6/10 Good

Good view from the breakfast room. Quite a noisy hotel due to the central staircase and also as we were on floor 3 directly under the breakfast room/ kitchen where maintenance was being done.
Robert, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The breakfast was fresh and the view very nice. All the staff are friendly. We'd especially like to thank Mr. Ali. He contacted us before our trip even began, which made us very happy. A small hotel with a great and safe location. The sheets and towels were clean, and there was coffee, tea, a heater, toiletries, and a hairdryer. It met all our expectations for our 3-day trip to Istanbul, and we recommend it to everyone.
Gülhan, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Budget-friendly basic stay

Reception staff were lovely and ever so helpful. However the hotel itself is a bit run down - there were some holes in the walls, the towels and bedding weren't completely clean, no mirror in the bedroom and the breakfast was bland. Lovely views from the rooftop cafe though, and great location for transport and sightseeing.

8/10 Very good

Great option for an Istanbul visit!

The staff was great, very accommodating. The breakfast area was great, top floor of the hotel. There was an elevator, so that wasn’t a problem. The breakfast was plentiful for a European buffet. Loved the bread and the juices. Had boiled eggs, but more lunch meat and veggies than I would say was breakfast. The room was clean and bed comfortable. The ac was great- once we figure the slide on the front covered lots of features. But highlight- it was very close to everything on the old town - Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, even Topkapi Palace, the grand bazaar and spice bazaar area. A great place to visit from if you are wanting to walk and be right in the midst of things.
Marita, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Don’t stay here. The rooms need a deep clean to say the least. There was weird black hairs on our sheets when we first arrived, open used shampoo bottles in our bathroom and the halls had a weird odor. The staff was extremely loud in the mornings and would talk very loudly and play music around 8 am. Breakfast was poor and you couldn’t tell the difference between used and unused silverware and cups/glasses. The only good thing about this place is its central location otherwise it’s not worth the stay or money.

Personal muy agradable pero limpieza deficiente

El personal muy agradable, serviciales, atentos y con mut buena disposición. La limpieza podría ser mejor. La ventilación del baño es muy deficiente, lo que obliga a tener la ventilación prendida constantemente.
Eduardo, 9-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nous avons eu un très bon dîner sur le toit avec vue sur la Mosquée Bleue.(-20% pour les clients de l'hôtel) Une chambre avec vue sur la mer avec balcon, le directeur est très serviable. Petit bémol, il faut encore faire quelques efforts au niveau propreté pour éviter les moisissures dans la pièce d'eau, le sol et rample escalier proche de la cuisine, un congélateur mis devant l'accès à la salle de petit déjeuner.

Cok güzel bir hotel

Fotograflardaki gibiydi. Deniz manzarası güzeldi. Bulundugu bolge gece saatlerinde cok canlı. Rahatlikla aile olarak tercih edilebilir. Odada bir iki eksik vardı, hemen temin ettiler. Odada balkon olması cok keyifli oldu. Sabah kahvaltisi çok güzel. Acik büfe ve yeterli secenek var. O bölgede kahvaltiya gitseniz kisi basi 700-1000 aralığında ödersiniz. Kahvaltidaki hanimefendi cok güleryuzluydu. Firindan yeni çıkarttığı yiyecekleri masalara servis yapması cok hoş bir detaydi. Temiz oda ve guzel kahvaltı icin teşekkürler.

Biz çok memnun kaldık. İkinci defa Olimpic Otele geldik ve pişman olmadık. Odalar gayet temizdi. Kahvaltı güzeldi. Çalışanlar da çok anlayışlı ve yardımseverdi. Ulaşım çok kolaydı. Bir daha ki İstanbul ziyaretimizde tekrar Olimpic Otelde konaklamak isteriz.
