Ich habe mit meine Frau und meine 2 Jährige Tochter für 2 Nächte in Downtown Sirkeci Hotel übernachtet, wir waren sehr beeindruckt von der Lage. Von dem Zustand und Sauberkeit waren wir sehr begeistert. Das Personal ist sehr hilfreich und sympathisch. Wir konnten unsere Auto in einem Parkhaus parken, was nur 1 minute zu Fuß von dem Hotel entfernt ist. Das Hotel ist auch sehr zentral, 5 min nach Sirkeci Promenade, 10min nach ayasofya, 10 min nach Eminönü. Also wirklich Top! 👌

立地がかなり良いしきれい。歯ブラシはありませんが、ドライヤーもあるしお湯もすぐ出る。水圧も問題なし。 102号室は朝食会場の真上で8:00頃からかなり音がするので、ゆっくり寝たい人は高層階を希望しましょう。 朝食なしプランにしたので、朝食は不明です。
