Pet friendly Hotels Istanbul

If there would be a Champions League for hotels, Rixos Tersane would win it. The nature of my media profession necessitates many hotel stays in many countries. Usually I cannot wait to go home. This time everything was different. Welcome? I felt as a family member, not paying guest. Design? Beautiful. Rooms? Perfect size, waterfront views, very comfortable beds, seating area, desk to work on, well above average storage space, and then the bathroom... history in the building, on the walls, there are books to read or consult about city and country. Food and beverage? Best I had in years at a hotel, from breakfast to dinner. Breakfast in particular is out of a stylish Hollywood movie. If a convention or conference is coming up - book it here. 2000 happy delegates? Easy :-) But there was something else, too: the team, their staff. How a hotel is managed reflects in staff attitude. According to my opinion and I spoke with many, this hotel must have the best possible management anywhere in the world. Thank you!

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!

Loft airport hotel This hotel is beautiful we were completely in shock at how nice the room is - Has a huge mirror which converts to a TV. The room has little fridge with free drinks - coffee kettle. It has beautiful furnishings the bathroom is fabulous I would totally recommend staying at this hotel Has a large mirror which turns into a TV. All upgraded - & exceptional When you get a taxi from the airport be sure the taxi man puts on the meter…. If you don’t see the meter running by the time you’re leaving the airport tell him to pull over and put the meter on I have noticed several Turkish taxi drivers don’t put on the meter coming or going from the airport why because they want to rip off tourists Do not pay any more than 200 Turkish lira max You can even get an Uber for maximum of 165 from the airport to the hotel Unfortunately you cannot get an Uber back to the airport. We did get a taxi from hotel back to the airport. 160 lira The hotel says it’s 5 miles away (that’s as the Crow flies) its actuality 8 1/2 miles by road. 15 mins max All the girls & Guys at the front desk were exceptional & really sweet - they spoke English they ordered us food to be delivered in the evening for us. They also recommended restaurants. We ordered a Turkish breakfast for €5 Our flight wasn’t until 530 so we asked if we could check out at 1 and they said yes no problem which we thought was very nice of them. There is a hotel at IST Airport but it’s very expensive (& not on Expedia) We would Definitely stay at this hotel again and have marked it as one of my favorites. I don’t very often give 5 star reviews but the staff were so nice and lovely and the hotel was soo fabulous I gave it a 5*. I did book the hotel 7 months out and got an amazing price so that helped…

Without question The Artisan is one of the finest of hotels i have had the pleasure to stay in . From the first moment of arrival I was greeted by Serkan and his incredible staff members . Ibrahim is the most charming and polite if waiters and totally professional with his approach to all my needs . Fatih works behind the bar and works with such a wonderful positive attitude . He is an outstanding young man .

Been at this hotel make feel like home..friendly staff.nice environment. Good service. Execellent breakfast.this also special message in regards to a person.who was really special to us.and in general she is a person who really deserve 5 stars.her name is Sedea, the concierge at front.nice smile personality .

The front desk staff had a good attitude and actively solved the problem. I originally wanted to find a badminton court in Istanbul. Although I couldn't find it, they used many ways to assist me. Thank you very much.

Great hotel with the sea view. Close to marmaray and 5 min walk away from new luxury compound where the nice restaurants are located along the cute streets. Suite room is my favorite one as it has quite big bathroom with shower and tub. Another great advantage are opening windows so you can have a fresh air breath from the sea. Restaurant is very comfortable and well designed. Meals taste great and fresh. Reception staff is not always useful but some of them are trying to be. Hotel has got the open air pool near the reception and has a common area with ibis hotel in case you need to switch to cheaper option during your stay. In general it deserves its stable 4 stars with plus.

Sometimes it takes one interaction to ruin something and well my experience at this hotel took same turn. I had booked a corner room facing the Bosphorus through American Express. When I arrived, I asked for a room with two twin beds and the receptionist very rudely said he was certain my booking came through Expedia and that he was certain Expedia explains those rooms don’t have twin bed options and “it is your responsibility to pay attention!” I explained to him that American Express might book through Expedia but regardless the American Express booking page did not say king beds were the only option. He kept insisting that I booked through Expedia and the only option I had was to go with a room facing the city or pay extra for an upgrade. Even though I payed for the more expensive view, I ended up with the view facing the city. I later checked with booking.com and as a matter of fact they do offer corner room with twin beds facing the Bosphorus! You know so many times you check in hotels and out of curtesy they offer you an upgrade when a mistake is made but not here! The guy had to prove he was right and was very rude about it!

After long time faraway from İstanbul got great enjoy with this stay. Room has nice view and large . Service was excellent, special thanks to mr.Mustafa , and other teams, all are very kind. We enjoyed stay here. Nice location easy to go anywhere in downtown..

I am a Marriott Titanium member so i have spent a few nights away! Any hotel experience to a large degree is determined by the quality of its staff. Everyone at the hotel were excellent from the first moment of walking into the hotel to the day we left to return home. This started from the security staff on the entrance and Serpil on reception who checked us in. The restaurant staff were all great, Furkan who would greet us daily to breakfast with a smile and Atakan who made us our eggs each morning, I could name many more in the restaurant. Murat in the Exec lounge ensured we were comfortable and well looked after and he was ably supported by Bucra and the rest of the team. The cleaners every day who made up our room always had time to smile and chat despite some of them not being too fluent at English! Hamida and Hatice were great, again I could mention all the others. The facilities of the hotel are what you would expect for a 5* Marriott. The location is good too but if you are wanting to regularly visit the Hagia Sophia area then I would suggest picking the times you travel sensibly to avoid the early and late rush hour. We have visited Istanbul several times and stayed at other hotels. We look forward to returning soon and we will be staying here next time too!
