Istanbul Golden City Hotel

The surrounding is not that much of a touristic area. However, it's of walkable distance to nearby tourist places. The air conditioner and TV wasn't working during my stay. Nevertheless, the service, cleanliness and friendliness of the hotel staff was up to standard. Everything would be perfect after the hotel resolve the issues in the rooms.

Hotel location not directly to sea side.. surrounded by industries tools shops, no smoking politics all over hotel building , my room was on sixth floor sea side view was blocked with another building , hotel small also elevators very narrow

Great and the staff were excellent in assisting me

The hotel is pleasant,clean and the staff spoke English. When our room safe had been left locked by the previous occupants Reception had someone come immediately to open and reset it for us. My wife had flowers from our family who had met us at the airport and the next morning we found the maid had put them into a glass vase - a nice touch. The buffet breakfast is plentiful and taken in the restaurant with a panoramic view of the Bosphorus. The street outside is very busy with hardware shops during the day but quiet at night and although it was dark returning to the hotel in the evening my wife and I did not feel unsafe.

It was great experience overall. Good service and friendly staff. Room was kind of small but we hardly stayed in room. We had a beautiful view from the room and breakfast area. Breakfast was great. I didn't like the local area but the location was close to train station and other transportation. Price was also reasonable.
