Tryp by Wyndham Istanbul Taksim

The hotel is rated 4 stars but actually I would give max 3 stars. In general was ok but cleanliness wise not the best. Toilet seer had marks of diarrhoea on the side of the seat. Toilet paper it’s a very cheap quality can’t even clean your bum. The towels were fairly clean but not the best I have ever seen for four star. The mattress is really poor quality and you feel like you’re sleeping on the floor. The covers was not enough for two people to sleep on so we were fighting over the cupboard all night. Complimentary drink inside the room,was not looked after the teabags was probably there for the last 10 years. The breakfast was alright nothing special. Please do not take the words in the reception on any recommendation for any other businesses such as restaurants they send us to a restaurant where we got dropped off.

The rooms and hotel is clean and nice in appearance. Check-in and our staff were okay. There was no advice on where the room was or room number, just handed a key and pointed at lifts. At the lifts there were no signs to tell you what floor your room would be. To no honest though, the main reason for my low 3 out of 5 review is the food and waiter service. When arriving for dinner at 7 we were literally pointed into the restaurant where tables were half layers or set with pre poured water (unsure how long water had been there). We found a table without water as presumed in use. Anyhow, then 20 minutes later after a few other confused guests came in and wondered around like we did a waiter came over. I asked if there was a menu and he said no. I asked what are we having and he said soup. I asked what soup and he said corn soup. I was a-bit confused and waited. Anyhow he then brought out some awful watery/creamy soup, I tried this and left it. He then brought a side salad, which was nice fresh salad. And the some chicken, potato and rice. The chicken was so dry and tasteless we left it all and just ate the rice. I was shocked that we were not given any options, or offered drinks and not even asked if we were vegetarian or had any allergies. Anyhow. Just sleep here and leave!! Oh also, so you know if you want to use the pool it’s an additional €5 per person for a mandatory swimming cap. I hope this review is helpful
