    There was no bottle of water neither on arrival nor any other day. We checked in around midnight, it would be nice to have a sip of water on arrival. No kettle either. Our room had a very bad smell from the bathroom/toilet. The shower was weak. Extremely tiny lift, takes long to get to any other level. No towels in the pool. I found some members of reception having a very aggressive attitude when opting for activities outside of those offered by the hotel. "How much did you pay?" sounded like a normal question to the guests. None of them smile nor say "hello".

    The location is not bad, about 10-12 mins walk to the tram/train station. It is fairly clean. Good furniture all around. The pool and sauna are a good addition. Even though it gets extremely busy in the evenings.

    The fact that sometimes especially during the night there was an annoying incoming smell of smoking.Probably there was a problem with the ventillation system.We were unlucky because opposite the hotel there was a construction site and it was extremely noisy(but this is not hotel's fault, it just happened during our stay)

    It is very close to Yenikappi station (5 min on foot) where you have access to all means of transport.The room was cute and clean and the staff very polite and always available to help.Our booking request for staying in a high floor was granted immediately.All in all, it was a decent choice for its value.

    The shower leaked, the room smelled stale; probably from years of smoking in the past. The laundry service they offered was only for dry cleaning so it was expensive.

    It was nice to not have to find breakfast in the morning

    The only thing I didn't like and it's nit picking really was the outdated look of the room. Also the bar was quite basic. Not a lot to choose from.

    The hotel was very clean and tidy. Beds were comfortable, food good, although different, staff very helpful and the pool area lovely.

    It is highly recommended to include more fruits for breakfast. Rooms can be a bit smelly, but for the value, one can not complain much.

    Great location, close lines and walk distance to the historical sights. Lovely and kind staff. Breakfast is really good.

    They are very clean and tidy hotel. I stayed there 7 nights with my wife. They are very friendly and the staffs are well mannered. If anything happened with my room facilities they took immediate action. I liked their prompt actions in every matter. I appreciate their effort to make guests happy. Wishing them a good future. Thanks Grand Unal Team. You made my Istanbul trip memorable.

    The area is quite busy, some music can be heard until 00. Light sleepers (like myself) should bring earplugs. No problem sleeping with them!

    Nice hotel, good quality for the price. Simple, tasty breakfast with a view, quiet rooms, and good beds. Spa department is very cozy, there's a small pool as well (as well as Turkish hamam and Finnish sauna). Good location near the Yenikapi metro station. Very friendly staff - we especially want to thank Cander for making us feel welcome and helping us with all our questions! Teşekkürler Cander!

    Nice and practical place to stay for a visit of Istanbul.

    > Breakfast gets boring and served vegetables or food are not fresh (comes from conserves). > The rooms are very small. Hair dryer was a hair burner instead of dryer... There is no Boiling kettle to make tea or coffeee. > There is no Business center or acess to tables with chairs. (This could be solved by leaving the breakfast terrace open for clients 24h/24 but they close it (only acessible @breakfast). > Street shall be relatively calm (no much trafic in front of your windows) but you have a Restaurent at the corner using a JBL Street HiFi with loud sound and bass, playing fusion/techno-music from Evening untill Midnight !!! which in our sense is inacceptable and Hotels shall do someting against that. > Pool gets realy dirty on Saturday/Sunday....

    Location of Hotel is excellent. Nearby Metro, Tramways and Busses. Little markets and restaurants. So you can easyly visit the city. Sauna + pool is very good.

    The housekeeping staff should be more aware that guests rest in the morning and maintain a quiet environment. Loud shouting between rooms is very disruptive and leads to negative reviews for the hotel.

    The hotel is well-located in the Fatih area, approximately 30 minutes by foot. The rooms are spacious and clean. Breakfast in acceptable. Suggestions - > pastry can be added. Parking in the front of the hotel - > thank you guys for this☺️
