Rotta Hotel İstanbul

8/10 Good

"Clean Room Wonderful staff very nice activity person who gave me ideals on how laces to go and visit !!"

CVK Park Bosphorus Hotel Istanbul

6/10 Okay

"Room 1804 I had a mixed experience during my recent stay at the CVK Park Bosphorus Hotel Istanbul. There were several highlights, but one persistent issue significantly impacted the stay. The Highlights Outstanding Service: The staff were truly wonderful. From the moment we arrived, everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional. Prime Location: You really cannot beat the location. It is central, convenient, and makes exploring Istanbul very easy. The Downside Unfortunately, we encountered a frustrating issue with the drainage in our bathtub. After every shower, the water simply would not drain, leaving us standing in pooled water. While we brought this to the staff's attention early on, the problem was never resolved. Despite the issue being reported, it continued throughout the entirety of our stay. For a hotel of this caliber, I expected a much quicker resolution to a basic maintenance matter."
