“I had a wonderful stay at Golden Age Hotel. The staff were very kind and professional at front desk, and I would like to give special thanks to Mesut who was extremely helpful and friendly throughout my stay. He really made my experience much more enjoyable. Even though they gave us the room earlier than check-in time, room service and cleaning was not really great…!!! Highly recommended!”

There was no English speaking Cable channel only Turkish speaking channels. I reported the problem to management but the problem was not resolved. Good food buffet. Rooms need to be refurbished because the wall paper was peeling at the seams, scuffed marks on the walls . Wood Floors need to be refinished. Friendly staff.

Cons - SO noisy up until 1am (mainly singing) so requested to move rooms. Was moved from level 1 to 5 which was still noisy (slightly better). You NEED to have a room on the rear side to avoid this Bathroom in our room smelt SO bad every morning, strong sewage smell which was awful and spread across the bedroom and took a few hours to subside Room decor is so outdated and needs modernising Fridge was dirty inside Pool opens at 11am which wasn’t ideal for my family Pros - staff seemed friendly although the housekeeping staff speak zero English It’s a short walk to Taksim square I would avoid this hotel if possible

Don’t recommend

The hotel is located In Taksim area which make it easy to access to everywhere . But the area it’s extremely noisy as too many pubs and restaurants around so you can hear music till 2am . Stuff hardly speaks English and the person who worked at reception at night shift was so rude . I don’t know his name but he was Mid aged around 45 years old . Once I have complained about some thing to him but rather he solve my problem he mentioned here is turkey , its not your country you can’t complain

There is no vip benefits and staff lacks hospitality and is unable to communicate in english. Rooms are in horrible conditions where the toilets and shower leaks water. Absolutely not worth paying to stay at this hotel as management doesnt bother to help even when you tell them issues. Also dont askfor anything from housekeeping as they will never come even if you call multiple time's.

We booked this hotel for our stay from 27th to 30 august and what we paid for, the property did not deliver. The first day we checked in we noticed ants crawling on all 3 beds, we checked the toilets and there were ants every where on the floor. When we complained the hotel could not relocate us in another room as all other rooms were fully booked. We struggled to communicate with the staff regarding immediate cleaning. When the cleaner came he hoovered the floor and changed the bed sheets. This was not enough as the ants were still appearing from somewhere. There were crackes inbetween the floor boards and scurting. Not to mention the HORRID smell of sewage coming from the bathroom. I would never recomment this hotel to anyone booking. Good luck to anyone who stays in room 3307. On check out we were not given any compensation for the inconvenience. Horrible service
