Not much options on the breakfast, but still satisfying. Staff is friendly and helpful. Double room is big enough and the presence of a balcony is very pleasing. One minus is noises from the pub downstairs and from the street, if you an early sleeper or with kids not the best place to stay. But we really enjoyed our stay. ##### Aiyma Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### omer nazim 15 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### great sightseeing In an easy to find place. It was a great experience to see Anıtkabir with the lights on its covered terrace at night. It has smiling staff and a very sweet cook. They are always around you and polite. Breakfast was clean, tasty and sufficient. You should definitely evaluate the location, price and performance of the product. ##### omer nazim Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 23 May 2025 Liked: Staff & service #### Friendly staff, room in rough condition above pub We chose this hotel because of the proximity to the bus station but we wish we stayed somewhere else. The hotel was in a rough condition. It was mostly clean but there are random holes and lots of wear and tear. Our room did not have a mini fridge. We did not have towels when we checked in. The bathroom had three small bottles of shampoo but no soap. The beds were not comfortable. One of the walls is all windows and we must have our key card in the slot for electricity, so when we return to our room in the late afternoon, it is very hot in the room. You must enter your passport number everytime you return to the room to log in to wifi. The hotel is right above a pub and it’s incredibly loud at night. People at the pub stand outside and smoke cigarettes and the smell and smoke came through the closed windows. Our clothes smelled like cigarettes. Several times at night we heard loud beeps in the hallway. We thought it was smoke alarms from the cigarette smoke but we learned in the morning that it was alarms on the room doors when someone doesn’t close the door all the way. The windows had blackout curtains but it did not matter because the AC unit above the bed had a bright white light that lit up the room. The breakfast was just okay. I would not stay here again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 18 May 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Terrible experience The staff was very nice, however the room we got was right next to the lift and there was no soundproofing , and we could hear everything from the hallway and the street. The bathroom didn’t appear to be that clean, there was no seal on the toilet and we only had two half opened toilet paper rolls. We stayed for two nights and we would be headed somewhere else but we had another night booked two days after so we talked to the people in the reception and asked please to get another room , away from the lift because I have trouble sleeping. The person who I think was manager or something of sorts told us that yes, for sure they would find us another room more on the middle of the hallway. Two days later there we were, we checked in again and for our surprise they assigned us the same room. We asked if they didn’t have any other. The receptionist said no and we explained that the “manager” who was also there had said we would give us another. They moved us one floor up, but for our surprise the room was even worse. It smelled damp, we had only one inch of toilet paper, and the noise from the street was deafening. Besides that at 4:3 in the morning the sound from the mosque could be heard as if we were standing next to it. So no sleep again. All in all it was a terrible experience. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Philipp 25 Nov 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Hilfsbereites Personal, gute Lage mit vielen Restaurants, Coffeeshops und ein paar Bars in der Nähe ##### Philipp Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fatih 24 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort gayet temiz güzeldi konum çok iyi ##### Fatih Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lionel 19 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Musique tres forte jusqu'à minuit ce qui nous a empêché de dormir ##### Lionel Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Yasin 17 Oct 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness İyi ##### Yasin Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sevgi 14 Oct 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities KLİMAYA GEREK DUYMADIK ##### Sevgi Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Halil ibrahim 12 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Gayet merkezi ve rahat konumda, konforlu bir odada kaldık. ##### Halil ibrahim Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Zeynep 5 Oct 2025 2 çift olarak 2 oda tuttuk. Birimizin odası tuttuğumuz oda değildi, odada yazılan imkanlar yoktu. (Kettle, ayrı oturma alanı vb.) ve fotoğrafta görünenden çok küçüktü. Balkon ve lavabo odanın içindeydi, perdeyle ve camla ayrılmıştı, konfor sıfırdı. Diğer odada ise lağım kokusundan ve gürültüden yakınlarımız uyuyamadılar. Otelin altında bar var gece 12ye kadar ses durmuyor. 1.kattaki odanın zemini sesten titriyordu. Odaları değiştirmek istedik reddettiler. Yalıtım yok yan odadaki sesler direk içerdeydi ve kahvaltı seslerine uyandık. Hayatımızda kaldığımız en kötü oteldi. ##### Zeynep Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Zeynep 29 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Ses izolasyonu konusunda maalesef sıkıntılı. Restoran tam odamın yanındaydı. Restoran ve komşu odanın sesleri maalesef odamda idi. Sabah bu seslerle uyanmak pek iyi olmadı. Bunun dışında odada minibar var denmesine rağmen yoktu. İyi yanı kahvaltısı zengin. Yatak konforluydu. Odada kettle var. Terlik var. Klima iyi çalışıyordu. 7.caddeye çok yakın. ##### Zeynep Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cetin 29 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Herşey harika ##### Cetin Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Enis Emre 28 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Kaliteli Oda temizliğinde bir sorun yoktu.

Normal dairelerden hotele dönüştürülmüş bir bina, görüntü fena değil ama zeminde bir bar olması hiç olmamış, misafirler bangır bangır müzik dinlemek zorunda bırakılıyor. Araçlı misafirler için park yerleri olmaması ve alternatif yaratılamaması da büyük eksiklik. En olumlu yönü kahvaltının iyi olması. ##### Mehmet Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Adem 7 Sept 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort Konum olarak geceleri hareketli bi bölgede gürültülü oluyor ama 12 den sonra mekanlar yüksek sesli müzikleri sonlandırıyor. Yatakları güzel ve rahattı banyoyu beğenmedik odada minibar / buzdolabı yoktu. Kahvaltı iyiydi, kahvaltı salonunda Anıtkabir manzarası görülmeye değer. ##### Adem Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### GÜLAY 6 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### İyi ki tercihimiz siz oldunuz Beklentimizi faylasıyla karşıladı.
