It is the second time we are staying here, very friendly atmosphere, assistant before arrival via Whatsapp, reach breakfast. Location in most popular area in the city, but quite, not much traffic. We got our room early than check in time and have posibility to leave our luggage till our transfer. Thanks to Faruk, he was very professional and helpful. See you next visit in Istanbul.

False advertising “free shuttle” - NOT

Hotels dot com portrayed this as a hotel that included an airport shuttle at no charge. This is completely false advertising! Indeed the hotel wanted 40€ each way to pick up and drop off customers. That cost MORE than the room itself. Horrible customer service in trying to get my questions answered ahead of leaving Canada. Example: Where to meet the shuttle, how to schedule the shuttle ahead of time if needed, and what methods of payment the shuttle would accept etc. I ended up booking a much nicer hotel nearer to the airport and only a $10 taxi fare to get there, Golden River by Continent.

Los mejor la ubicación, muy justito

Bien ubicado y nada más. Escaleras para las habitaciones, súper estrechas, si llevas peso, lo tienes mal. Sin servicios, ni máquina para comprar un agua. Las mezquitas muy cerca no dejan dormir a las 6am y muuuy viejo y en condiciones muy justitas. Pero barato por su ubicación.

Çok kötü

Suyun ısınması çok uzun sürüyordu, tv çalışmıyordu, WiFi a bağlanamadık ve en önemlisi oda hiç temiz değildi. Odaya giriş olacağı için yapılan hiçbir hazırlık yoktu (su, havlu vs) , oda günlerdir kimse uğramamış gibiydi. Kısacası bir otelde aradığınız her şey eksikti. Çok kötü bir deneyimdi asla tavsiye etmem.

Excellent experience

Very pleasant stay at Minel Hotel. The owner family is brilliant with guests from greeting to room service and everything else. The room was neat and tidy and absolutely worth every penny I paid. The location is in heart of old Istanbul with all the historic sites a walking distance away. The local shops and restaurants serve very nice food and provide everyday essentials which is quite convenient. I will definitely use it again.
