Hotel workers are very polite and kind to customers. The breakfast is average, but the pool is not working and needs repair. The shower design is poor, causing water to splash outside the bathroom.

I recently stayed at the Nova Plaza Crystal Hotel in Istanbul and had a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly nice and always willing to help with any requests or questions. The hospitality was top-notch, making me feel very welcomed and comfortable throughout my stay. The hotel’s cleanliness was impeccable, with well-maintained rooms and common areas. The facilities were excellent, and the location was perfect for exploring the city. The breakfast was fantastic, and the manager at the restaurant was very nice. The food was wonderful and provided a great start to each day. Overall, I highly recommend the Nova Plaza Crystal Hotel for anyone visiting Istanbul. It was a fantastic stay, and I look forward to returning in the future.

Das Frühstücksbuffet war absolut schlecht, unterstes Niveau !!!!. Die Auswahl und die Hygiene waren schrecklich. Ich musste leider immer außerhalb des Holtes frühstücken. Kurz gesagt, ekelhaft! Kein Verlass auf die Bilder im Internet.

La stanza 'suite' era al nono piano ma l'ascensore arrivava fino al ottavo. Quindi era da fare un piano per le scale che sembrava fatto con lavori in corso. Dal bagno usciva in continuazione un oddore terribile. L'albergo era pieno di persone che erano a istambul a farsi i trapianti di capelli. Si muovevano per l'arbergo con le teste vendate e qualcuno pieno di sangue. Lo stesso scenario ers nella sala colazione. Sembrava di essere in ospedale. Non lo raccomando e sicuramente non torno in questo albergo. Ci sono altre strutture vicine allo stesso prezzo e molto poi belle.
