I chose this hotel for attending a town hall meeting, as it provided a meeting point for many cultures throughout history, owing to its location connecting Asia to Europe. The facilities were satisfactory, allowing me to work efficiently during my stay.
The one service that I missed for my work was a business center, which would have been helpful for printing and scanning documents.

For the price we paid, we got great value and the room was cozy and comfortable. The location was perfect, with easy access to subway stations and local dining options. The staff at the hotel were friendly and attentive.
The hotel breakfast menu could have been improved with more variety.

Nothing to be said.

Mind-blowing hotel experience with super helpful English-speaking staff, spotlessly clean rooms. Perfectly located near all touristic sites. The staff went above and beyond during my surgery, carrying my bags, making my travel unforgettable. The neighborhood is safe, quiet at night for a peaceful sleep. The unique design, close to services, transportation, and tourist places. The receptionists stored my luggage after check-in, which made me very happy. The complementary breakfast buffet was jaw-dropping. Thank you to the hotel staff for their incredible hospitality.

I chose Vavien for its convenient location near the Historical Galatasaray Bath, which I wanted to visit. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the amenities offered such as complimentary Wi-Fi and concierge services. The hotel's transfer service and dry cleaning/laundry services were also much appreciated. Additionally, the presence of a café, bar, and nearby local restaurants and stores made my stay even more convenient.
Pillows had someone's body hair.

We couldn't have wished for a better location during our stay. Everything we needed was so close by; from the Halic metro station to the bustling main street. Even the biggest attractions were only a stone's throw away! We were so pleased with the overall quality of the room, bathroom and the service throughout our stay. The breakfast was simple yet delicious.
We were surprised that the hotel didn't provide enough towels or complementary tea making facilities in our room.

The hotel offered a beautiful romantic escape. The bed was cozy and comfortable, and the room was immaculate. The location was perfect for exploring the city, and we could easily walk to nearby restaurants and shops. We also enjoyed the complimentary breakfast and the friendly staff who made us feel welcome.
The noise from a nearby club, which woke us up in the middle of the night. However, once we closed the windows and turned on the air conditioning, the noise was not a problem anymore.

My xmas stay was wonderful! The breakfast was delicious and varied, with plenty of options to choose from. The location was perfect, walking distance from many key attractions and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Plus, I really enjoyed how clean and well-maintained the hotel was.
Although my stay was great overall, the bathroom could have been better. The shower leaked and the door didn't close properly, which made it a bit uncomfortable.

I chose this hotel for attending a business symposium due to its location serving as a meeting point for many cultures throughout history. The staff was accommodating and the room provided all necessary amenities for a comfortable stay.
The one service I missed for my work was a business center or meeting room where I could conduct professional activities.

I had a wonderful stay at a budget-friendly hotel close to the historic part of the city. The bed in my room was spacious and comfortable, and the WiFi worked perfectly. The hotel was conveniently located just a few minutes' walk from Galata Tower, Halic station, and Galata wall. The staff were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The cleanliness of the hotel was impeccable, and the showers were lovely. Despite some slight noise from the main road in the morning, I still had a peaceful night's sleep. The location was ideal, being near all the tourist attractions. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again.
Tourists from New Zealand often stay at these properties. Ideas for your future trips.
