Crowne Plaza Istanbul Old City - Istanbul

I purchased a "standard room w/ king sized bed." What I got was the smallest hotel room I've ever seen in my life, with a twin sized bed. To give you an idea of how small this room was, there was approximately two feet of space on either side of the twin bed, and the desk was 1' x 3' with the t.v. mounted on the wall above it. When I called the reception, […] I was told their system said I was to get a king sized bed only "if available." I don't know who's at fault for this discrepancy, the hotel or hotels.com, but I am very unhappy that I bought and paid for one thing and got something completely different. Pročitajte više

Hotel was good but not of 5 star standard. It was in a good location in the old town. We had to change rooms as the first room we were in had a very bad smell of damp. The staff were very pleasent and changed our room when we complained. Overall, the hotel was very clean but is in need of upgrading/maintenance and I would not recommend it if you want […] 5 star treatment. Pročitajte više

Somewhat apprehensive having read previous reviews, however, our experience was very positive. Staff very efficient and helpful, hotel was quite elegant and room was up to expectations.

The hotel was nice, I wouldn't call it a 5 star, but it was certainly nice. Not a far walk from the grand bazaar and lots of shops around. I heard it gets a little sketchy to walk around at night, we mostly took cabs (they were cheap). Next time we would stay in NISHANTASHI or Besiktas as it was a little nicer area. We didnt go to the pool or gym. pictures […] were pretty accurate. helpful staff. Pročitajte više

Most of the Receptionist were nice except one or two that i have come accross as not very friendly, the remaining staff were very helpfull . Excellent location and service ( bath Towels were slightly over-used), the Turkish bath experience was enjoyable, the hotel is a walking distance from most important locations, bazars and museums, tram service […] is round the corner and cafes are all around, it was an enjoyable life time experiance and would recomend this hotel for it's proximety and unique location and also its cleanliness and good service.

We chose this "american style hotel because we assumed the room would be large and the bedding consistent with a 5 star hotel. The room was small. The bathroom was very small. The bedding was not so comfortable. Our second stay we were put into a much larger room and that was greatly appreciated.

I only stayed one night (unfortunately) as I was travelling from Istanbul to Kayseri, Turkey, but it was one night of bliss. After a 17 hour flight from the states, the Turkish Hamam was a delight. Be sure to have them scrub you (extra cost, but worth it). The hotel is excellent, the staff speaks great English, and the room was very comfortable. It […] is about 8 miles from the airport, so it did cost 35 TL there and back, but worth it, even for one night. Pročitajte više

We had to make a local phone call from our room to the travel agent approximatly 10 city blocks away from the hotel that lasted for 20 minutes. Our bill for this single phone call was 45TL that amounts to $30. This was a rip off.

You can't really be close to everything in Istanbul because the city is so huge and there are so many things to see. As far as being close to some of the main attractions, this place is about as good as anything. There are some hotels in slightly nicer areas, but this area is just fine. The hotel is excellent. The breakfast is very, very good. The […] WIFI didn't work well in the rooms; really at all, because I was on the top floor. I was there for business, so this was sort of irritating. Seems like they were having a problem with the WIFI during that time and they do not normally. Even though it's in a very nice location, it is sort of complicated to get to... even for Turkish taxi drivers. I would recommend that the hotel give out a notepad sized piece of paper with clear and understandable instructions in Turkish and English to each hotel guest. This needs to include something that defines how to get to the hotel from a MAJOR landmark close to the hotel that any taxi driver would know. Sounds petty, but I assure you that this is important. I had 4 taxi drivers get completely lost trying to find this place, not to mention my Turkish partner trying to find it. Don't rent a car if you're going to stay only in Istanbul; makes no sense to me to try to drive and park in this city. Pročitajte više

This hotel was an excellent choice. The location is perfect, close to all the major sights. Convenient transportation is in front of the door. Service was excellent. The morning breakfast is tasty and abundant. Fresh perked coffee would be more appreciated instead of instant coffee. We would certainly recommend this hotel to any tourist visiting Istanbul […] for the first time. Pročitajte više

Conveniently located, comfortable rooms, free amenities such as internet/gym/pool, and decent service. There were minor issues about the room, which were all addressed within an hour.

The hotel lobby is gorgeous, and the breakfast buffet was very good. Lots of scrumptious options. The room was small, but clean and charming. The bed wasn't very comfortable - but I was so exhausted from sightseeing it didn't matter. The location is good- you can walk (uphill) to the Grand Bazaar in about 10 minutes. Or, you can take the trolley which […] is really easy and cheap. In 20 minutes you can take the same road to the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. My only complaints would be that the common areas were not very well-airconditioned, and the staff wasn't too good when booking our dinner cruise on the Bosphorus (payment confusion and package confusion - when we arrived on the boat they said we hadn't paid for the package, and they didn't know we order the "with alchohol" cruise).

This hotel is excellent and I definitely recommend it to anybody who wants to stay here! The hotel itself is beautiful, the lobby is gorgeous and the rooms are excellent! They are spacious and very clean, great to come back to every night after sightseeing. The location of the hotel is also phenomenal, within about a block from the tram which is the […] most convenient way to get around the city for just 1.50 lira, and not to mention the hotel is located on one of the most important roads in the city, added to that is that it is so close to everything really, being about a 15 minute walk from the Grand Bazaar and maybe 25 minutes or so from Ayasofya and the Blue Mosque, but still managing to be in a pleasant neighborhood. The hotel staff are for the most part quite friendly, mainly the bellboys and the restaurant people who were the nicest people who worked at the hotel. Some of the front desk people were a bit rude. I wouldn't recommend the breakfast there since it was 33 lira per person a day if it's not included in your rate. Apart from that, no complaints, excellent hotel and we stayed here for a number of nights and everything went smoothly. Fantastic hotel! Note- for some reason, some taxi drivers seem to not be familiar with the hotel, so make sure you provide them with the address. Also, make sure you check what the front desk wants to charge you, sometimes it is a bit strange. Pročitajte više

The hotel appears to be fairly new, with the interior quite impressive. The double volume foyeris a must see! The room that I had was very small, but we made the best of being in a great location. Our room was located on an upper 3rd floor (which required usto take the elevator to the 3rd floor, and then take a carpeted staircase to our room). All other […] rooms in the hotel are much larger. The breakfast was adequate, and good value for money. We did not have lunch or dinner at this hotel. There was a water leak in our shower, which I made the reception aware of. The same evening, the Engineering team attended to it, and ensured that we were happy with the workmanship. The pool/gym/sauna was immaculate, which we used regularly throughout our stay. I would definitely recommend this hotel, but ensure that you stay in a room on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd floors to ensure that you do not get this tiny room on the upper 3rd floor. Pročitajte više

Perfect place to stay. Great rooms, great indoor swimming pool with steam room, dry sauna, weight room that overlooks the swimming pool and "Hamam", great location--just two blocks from the tramway that will take you everywhere for $1.00, from the Blue Mosque, to Taksim. The service is great! Only teeny, tiny thing...the blond who works at the front […] desk is a little feisty when you ask for help in getting around, but everybody else is very patient. I recommend this hotel highly. Pročitajte više

This hotel was very, very nice, but it's in the textile/clothing district which is not very interesting for strolling. It is walking distance of the Grand Bazaar but an hour of that place is enough for a lifetime. I had a WONDERFUL kese (scrub) and "soap massage" in the very lovely haman (Turkish Bath) that scrubbed away my 17 hours of flight time however. […] Next time I will either stay in the Sultanahamet/Topkapi area, which has all the charming cafes and lighted trees etc for evening strolls or a place on the Marmara for the view.

Great rate, location is good, great service, but I didn't like the food.

outstanding

Leider hat sich eine grosse Enttäuschung eingestellt. Wir haben unsere Postkarten an der Rezeption abgegeben und für das Porto ca. 15 Euro bezahlt. Bis heute ist keine dieser Karten angekommen. Wir müssen davon ausgehen, dass diese gar nicht abgeschickt wurden. Ansonsten fühlten wir uns im Hotel Crown Plaza sehr wohl und auch die Lage so Nahe der Sehenswürdigkeiten […] ist super.

L'hôtel est très bien situé. Non loin du vieux quartier que l'on peut joindre en 5 mns en prenant le tramway juste devant l'hotel. L'hôtel est très beau. Particulèrement les halls. Nos chambres n'étaient pas très grandes mais très confortables. Vue sur une verrière - donc pas de vue. Mais de ce fait très calmes. A ne pas sous estimer quand on n'est […] dans une ville aussi animée qu'Istanbul. Petite piscine en sous sol, détail qui est peut être sympathique quand on revient d'une bonne journée de ballade! Les petits déjeuners, copieux, sont servis dans un patio magnifique. Le personnel est plutôt serviable, sans plus. Je vous recommande cet hôtel! Nous étions avec nos 2 adolescents et nous avons tous été satisfaits. Pročitajte više

ausgezeichnet

Bem próximo ao Grande Bazar - localização muito conveniente. O Hotel é muito bonito e o quarto amplo e confortável. Excelente relação custo X benefício.

Lage ist nicht optimal: Nur Grand Basar ist nahe, sonstige Sehenswürdigkeiten nur mit überfüllter, heißer Straßenbahn zu erreichen. Frühstück ist kläglich: Am ersten Tag wenigsten Spiegeleier und gegrillte Tomaten, am zweiten Tag nur noch Omelett mit viel Käse drin. Wurst/Schinken nur für Muslime: "Schinken" aus gepreßtem Kalbs- oder Hühnerfleisch, […] für ein 5 * Hotel lächerlich! Vor dem Eingang zum Hotel und sogar innerhalb der Hotelhalle viele Treppenstufen sind störend. Pročitajte više

We got a very small double room and it was almost impossible to open our siut cases eventhough we only had package for 3 days. The hotel is very centrally placed with easy access to the tramp (100-150 metres) which takes you around for all important attractions and shopping places.

Dette hotellet kan trygt anbefales da det har en sentral beligenhet og har alle fasiliteter som kan forventes av et 5 stjerners hotel. Kort vei til Grand Basar med ca 2000 små forretninger. Det er andre gangen i løpet av 7 mnd vi besøker Istanbul og vi har brukt dette hotellet begge gangene. Det eneste vi synes er dyrt er prisen på frokost.

Jeg har boede på Crowne Plaza Old City i 4 dage, og jeg har intet at sætte fingeren på. Alt var tip top perfekt, og beliggenheden er nærmest ultimativ. Rent, moderne, komfortobalt og meget rar atmosfære.
