Taksim Gonen Hotel - Istanbul

Really good rooftop terrace dining

The breakfast is warm and rich with marvellous view on Istanbul, fruits plus Turkey, there's an option for each taste. The place has excellent and absolutely perfect location right next to the main square.

the units are high-class, functional with 2 big beds, good view, as example.

We loved the breakfast with a fine view and relaxed at the spa after exploring Istiklal Street and Galata Tower. Just a heads up, the area gets lively at night, so be cautious if you're out late. A solid pick for a group trip.

One downside was the noise from the generator early in the morning. It lasted quite a while, a bit annoying.

The room with good facilities.

Fantastic and fairly clean small hotel. Particularly good spot not far from taksim square and Istiklal street as well as Taksim Square, easy walking distance from the bus systems and the metro systems. Excellent food in the rooftop restaurant in the vicinity. Early check-in, late check-out. The shuttle from airport to property, great pool. The hotel of choice in Istanbul.

Great spa access and awesome view of Taksim Square from our room. The rooftop pool is a huge plus.

The location is perfect, we booked a normal room but still got something better. The hotel is located directly in Taksim, so you can reach the center within 5 minutes.

Very courteous staff, great service

It already looked a bit worn, carpet etc.

The location is superb, just a short walk to the square and the main pedestrian street, which makes it perfect for exploring. The breakfast experience stood out with fine views of the Bosporus, but the food options felt limited, lacking variety. Privacy was a major concern with staff entering the room without permission, which really affected the comfort of the stay.

Central location

Not clean, staff not professional

Very friendly staff at the reception. The room was clean and very large. Only 2 minutes walk from Taksim Square and 10 minutes walk from Vodafone Park. There are good bars nearby.

Breakfast wasn't worth the money. The staff in this area is not friendly either.

A rooftop breakfast to cherish

Waking up to fine views of the city while enjoying breakfast on the rooftop is an experience I won't forget. The hotel was conveniently located right by Taksim Square.

Despite the so-called 'free access to the spa', most treatments come with extra charges, which isn't exactly transparent. Breakfast options are limited, primarily with just a few basic items like omelettes and toast, missing out on any real variety. On a couple of occasions, the cleaning staff barged in despite the 'Do Not Disturb' sign-definitely not cool for anyone who values privacy. While the hotel has its moments, there are quite a few kinks to iron out.

Central location, staff very nice

Had our room right by the elevator. Accordingly, it was partly a little loud.
