Excelent Hotel

We had an excellent stay at this wonderful hotel. From the moment we checked in, we were warmly welcomed and attentively cared for by the entire staff. We must especially highlight the outstanding service provided by Tarik and Ercan, who were essential in making our experience perfect. The hotel’s location is simply unbeatable close to everything, with easy access to the tram and the city’s main attractions, which made our sightseeing even more convenient. The breakfast is very good. All of this, combined with the friendliness and professionalism of the entire team, made our stay truly exceptional. We are very happy and will definitely return here on a future visit. Congratulations to everyone for the impeccable service!

Enjoyable stay - the location is brilliant - so close not more than 2 mins from a tram stop - then you are connected across Istanbul. The staff are really helpful and go out of their way to help you - I can’t say enough good things about their customer service. Breakfast was pleasant and enough to give you a good start to the day. We had our elderly grandmother so my parents and them had a connecting rooms and this was very beneficial for us. Not all the rooms have a window which looks outside so check the type of room you book beforehand, economy room etc. the cleaning service was also brilliant.

Perfect location, few minutes walk for main attractions! Good breakfast, excellent staff, hotel itself very clean. HUGE problem are their beds! Firm is not a word to describe, rock hard!!! Pillows the same very hard. Paper thin walls, you can hear every word and sound, like literally someone in your bed. Shower cabin is very small, I am average size person was having trouble to get in or turn around. We had upgraded room, size is very good, but out of window like a prison courtyard.

Avoid at all costs - not suitable for women at all

Room-had minimal yellow lighting and faced a stairway no sunlight-the hotel manager told me he was doing me a favour- apparently I had booked one single and one double but he had given me a quadruple and a double!I had in fact booked two double rooms. Two days later a smaller room was made available to us which we had to decline as there was no space to even open a suitcase fully! On the first morning for breakfast-the eggs had finished in the serving buffet we were told this would cost an extra 5 euros however as it was our first day they would give it us for free-Quite a shock as we had already paid for breakfast The highlight of this trip was when my wallet went missing from my room-it was there the night before and after breakfast as we were leaving the hotel I noticed it was not in my bag-however when I questioned the hotel about this the manager advised me no one apart from housekeeping had been in my room and she had worked there for over six years ... hence definitely could not be a thief! Final straw was as we were leaving the hotel - on the 1st day we were advised the drinks were free in the room - we actually double checked this with them - as we were in the taxi two men run up to my father and said pay for them and tried to pry open the taxi and get aggresive! Would not even check with the initial person who told us they were free! Finally the manager had no respect for women at all – almost dismissed all my concerns and did not take me seriously at all

Das Hotel hat eine sehr gute Lage und gute Anbindung an die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel. Es gibt in unmittelbarer Nähe viele Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Die Lage ist sehr belebet. Der Lärm war deshalb vom Hotelzimmer aus leider vor allem auch abends zu hören. Das Hotelzimmer war etwas klein, reichte aber völlig aus. Die Ausstattung entsprach dem Standard. Die Betten waren für uns allerdings sehr klein, hart und ungemütlich. Das Personal war sehr nett. Das Frühstück war in Ordnung. Die Auswahl war zwar nicht groß, aber für uns ausreichend. Beim Frühstück wurden wir immer sehr lieb von den beiden Mitarbeiterinnen Merve und Betül bedient. Insgesamt würden wir das Hotel für einen kurzen Aufenthalt weiterempfehlen. Das Preisleistungsverhältnis hat für uns gepasst.

Great location!

This is a smaller hotel conveniently located in the old city. The staff were very friendly and very helpful. They gave us great information which made it easy for us to make our plans on what to visit and where to eat. We could walk to most everything including the Blue Mosque. The hotel is clean and nice. There is a wonderful bar upstairs with great views. The rooms are good size and quite comfortable. We loved having a room where we could look out on the street and feel connected to the area. We would definitely stay here again.

Das Hotel hat eine sehr zentrale Lage. Der Bazar ist fußläufig sehr schnell erreichbar. Die Bahn (die Haltestelle ist 1 Min. entfernt) fährt zu allen grossen Sehenswürdigkeite und zum Hafen von wo man auch sehr schnell und einfach auf die asiatische Seite übersetzen kann. Leider ist das Hotel sehr hellhörig, aber mit Ohrstöpsel sehr gut auszuhalten. Das Personal ist sehr nett und aufmerksam.Das Essen (wir hatten nur Frühstück) ist ausgiebig, frisch und lecker. Es war für jeden was dabei (inkl. Vegetarier). Wir kommen gerne wieder.

We had a really great time staying at the Aprilis Hotel. The staff looked after us so well, with such courtesy and kindness. The rooms were very clean and comfortable; the hotel was very central for all of our sightseeing; the breakfasts were plentiful; and the views from the rooftop bar were incredible. The hotel is on the main tram route, with only 10 minutes walk down the hill to Haggia Sophia and the Basilica Cisterns. We stayed here for 12 nights and found plenty to do in and around the city. The staff greeted us with Turkish tea on arrival,. and brought complimentary drinks to our room one night.The breakfast staff were super helpful, and the reception staff were a great help in helping us plan our sightseeing. I would heartily recommend this hotel to anyone.
