Hayal kırıklığı, kesinlikle tavsiye etmiyorum.

Yukarıda gözüksün diye 5 yıldız verdim, rezil bir tutumla karşılaştık. Soğuk lobide 45 dakika bekletildik üzerine rezervasyon yaptığımız oda yerine camsız havasız rutubetli bir odaya yerleştirildik, kendilerinden kaynaklı problem olmasına rağmen bizi bir üst segmentteki odaya yerleştirmek yerine HİÇ BOŞ ODAMIZ YOK diyip kestirip atmaya çalıştılar. Zor bela yan oteldeki standart odaya yerleştirdiler bizi. Berbat bir deneyimdi, kesinlikle tavsiye etmiyorum.

Harika

İş için 4 gece konaklamak durumunda kaldığım Nil Otel’den çok memnun kaldım. Çalışanlar gerçekten çok kibardı. Tek başınıza korkmadan kalacağınız bir otel. Tek problem klimanın kafasına göre ısıtmasıydı. Üşümediğim için o da çok sorun olmadı. Ulaşım olarak gerçekten çok iyi konumda ve otel ana caddenin bir arka sokağında kaldığı için müthiş sessiz. Kesintisiz uyku ♥️ Yine olsa yine gelirim. Herkese tekrardan çok çok teşekkür ediyorum

Family review

In terms of the family room it was disappointing as the photos looked much newer and better. And there was a tiny room in the corner with a bunk bed. However, the location was perfect as it was close to Taksim and Şişli with lots of shops around the hotel. The staff were friendly and rooms were cleaned daily. Breakfast wasn’t good as there was very little options.

The Nil

The service was AMAZING. the breakfast was awesome. WiFi, fast for Netflix. beds were comfortable. Housekeeping was wonderful. However, the corners of the rooms should be cleaned as they have build up of gunk. the shower is small with the corner body spray unit, which makes it tight for the bigger fella. the only reason i extended the stay was because of the great service i received and i felt safe with my 11 year old son. we had to park 2 blocks away, 4 minute walk, at the Ramada Inn. There is a place for Kofte, Kara Hizar Bufe. 30 second walk. great food and service. recommended by the staff at Nil. Bambi, around the corner was exceptional. i would stay again. thank you very much to the guys at The Nil Hotel. helping me with my Turkish, and guiding me around with my first Trip to Turkey, until next time.
