Goztepe Holidays from £342

Although the hotel is fantastic in terms of location, decor and views, especially from the restaurant, going to breakfast was a real highlight. I had a problem with a light sensor in my room in that it stay on if the aircon was on. If I switched off the a/c then the room was dark but very hot. I didn’t get a good nights sleep. I the front desk twice and spoke to the receptionist in person. Each time they promised to send someone up but they didn’t. I was only there three nights so I chose to put up with it as the other factors outweighed the light. Issue. And I would stay there again.

Location is very nice. Room was fine. My toilet exhaust fan was not working. I told the staff. They said it will go on. This and that. Actually staff has poor English communication skills. Difficult to explain them. They can’t fix my problem. That results in smell in the room.

We love the Richmond Hotel, Istanbul. This is our third stay and will stay again.

Hotel helped arrange paid transportation from airport; we were going on a Viking cruise and our ship was right across the street!

We enjoyed our stay in this hotel. Very close to historic old city, main attractions within walking distance, many options for coffee, dining. Just know, standard rooms are pretty small, which is fine if you are coming for just a short visit. We came for 2 weeks and had to upgrade to a larger room. Also know, all rooms have a very small closet and no drawers to put clothes away (we had to use third bed in our room for that), which is ok for a short stay. Bathrooms were kind of small, but comfy with good hot shower, and water pressure, no problems with plumbing at all. Rooms and hotel are pretty clean, and cleaning ladies were wonderful and very sweet! Breakfast buffet was pretty good, nice coffee machine with all different options, eggs, cereal, salads, cheeses and local cold cuts, fruits, breads and pastries, nuts, deserts, juices. Hotel has a small, basic gym, small pool, sauna, and a steam room that we used. Overall, pleasant stay at the hotel, thank you!
