Mateo staff are kind, caring and professional. The hotel was a joy to stay at! If you’re concerned about it not being on the European side, just be a bit clever with travelling options (e.g. the 15 bus to Üsküdar then a quick ferry to the very heart of downtown Istanbul at Eminönü).

Plan your new year stay at this hotel

Everything was great, except the heating wasn’t quite right, and the water wasn’t hot enough. But other than that, the staff was super friendly. The lady who made breakfast was really nice and welcoming. The room was super clean, and there was a nice gift and flowers waiting for us. And the great part of our stay, we got to watch the New Year’s fireworks from our room.

öncelikle sıcak su ile duş alamadık, resepsiyona sorunu bildidiğimizde 30 dakika içinde sorun çözüleceği söylendi ama çözülmedi, mecburen soğuk su ile duş aldık, odadaki telefon çalışmıyordu bu yüzden resepsiyona gitmek zorunda kaldık ve resepsiyon sorunumuz ile pek ilgilenmedi. Kahvaltı içinse selfie servis olduğu yazıyordu fakat sabah kahvaltı için gittiğimizde selfie servis olmadığını ve sadece bize getirilen tabaktakileri yedik. Kışın burada kahvaltı yapmanızı önermiyorum çünkü yemek yenilen alan yaz aylarına uygun olduğundan kış mevsiminde çok soğuk ve kapıdan gelen soğuk hava yüzünden bir an önce kahvaltımızı bitirip odamıza geri gittik.

Odaların penceresi saçma iç mekanlara ortak alanlara bakıyor. Havasız bodrum kat gibi. Banyo giderleri tıkalı. Klozet bozuk. Onun dışında iiyi olan tek şey da kahvaltı ve kahvaltıyı servis eden, hazırlayan personel hanım çok iyi, nazik.kahvalti güzel.
