“Good for short stay”

The room was very spacious, the staff was very helpful despite my late check-in and also helped me with my luggage. Location is comfortable, 5 mins of walking from Taksim square, the neighbourhoods might seem shady but actually quiet and there are a lot of bars/cafes around.

Location was brilliant

Good location friendly staff and lots of shops and places to eat around the hotel

Close to everything rooms are big and clean

The standout feature, without a doubt, was the service. The hotel staff were extremely attentive, polite, and always willing to help. From check-in to check-out, I felt very well taken care of, and it was clear that they genuinely cared about the guests’ comfort. They were always ready to offer tips, assist with any needs, and make the stay even more enjoyable. The room was comfortable, clean, and well-organized, providing great moments of rest after a day of exploring the city. It is definitely a great choice for anyone looking to stay well in Istanbul, offering excellent value for money and service that truly makes a difference. I highly recommend it!

Very poor hotel , not taken care of. Staff was very rude and manager also ! I do not recommend at all.

“I am very happy only for their good behave”

Location, staff are good

Handy location to Taksim square. Helpful staff and a well priced room.

Everything

“Nice”

The room and location was the best

Main thing there is one small elevator available to rea h upper floors. Around five minutes walk from teksem Square and istiklal street. Easy access to metro from taksem square and nearby kabatase pier via F1 Funicular.

Responsive and attentive receptionists, amazing location on a rather quiet street close to the Taksim square, and a good value for the buck overall.

Excellent value, central location. Fridge and kettle with coffee and tea is much appreciated. Amazing access to the heart of Istanbul.

“A good enough hotel for its price. Exceeded my expectations.”

I'll try to describe my impressions, as I've stayed in several hotels in Istanbul. This hotel is quite good for its price. Compared to hotels in the same price range that were 2.5 times higher, they would be inferior to this hotel. The room is quite large, not exactly brand new after renovation, but everything is quite good. I'd like to note the soundproofing; it's quite good; this is probably the best hotel in Istanbul with soundproofing. Yes, you could hear someone walking in the hallway, but from other rooms everything was very muffled.

The location was very good. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet. The room was pretty nice with a big terrace.

“Great value for money in a great location!”

Such lovely staff, very friendly and accommodating. They also helped us with a very smooth transfer back to the airport. There was also much needed air-conditioning in the room. If you can book the room with the terrace, go for it! It's nice to be able to take a step outside and take the chaos of the city in 😃.

Ayub was v friendly and helpful, he even let us check in early when we arrived at 7am

“Retropera was comfortable and quiet.”

The room was perfect size,

“highly recommanded”

the staff was very friendly, and the place was situated in a good place near to everything : transport, restaurants etc ..

The air conditioner is not working ( maybe due to changing weather conditions)
