I can confidently say that of all the hotels I've been to in my entire life, this was the worst hotel I've ever experienced, and I usually go to a lot of hotels. Very uncomfortable bed and mattress. The chair in the room was broken and it was even hard to find an electrical outlet to charge my cell phone.

Great little hotel

We were only booked for one night but would have been perfectly happy to stay for longer as it's a nice little hotel in an excellent location with helpful staff and a perfectly acceptable breakfast. Would definitely return.

Overall good, but service could be better

This was my second stay at the hotel. It's good for it's price, the location is perfect, and I loved the breakfast. The service, however, wasn't good this time. I asked for a wake-up call because I had to take a morning flight. They never did.

A comfortable & well-priced stay; poor wifi

A great stay overall, a comfortable spacious room, a sumptuous breakfast with a stunning view, a convenient central location. The wifi in my room, however, was quite week, could hardly use it on my laptop. Also, the reception person wasn't that helpful during the check-in: didn't provide any information about the wifi login and breakfast hours.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room we booked was a family room with 2 beds and sleeps 3. The front desk did give us the exact room we booked when we checked in. However, the next day the lady asked for more money. She said that we only booked for a room that sleeps 1. They did not tell us when we checked in, and we felt maybe there is something wrong with the Orbitz booking system so we contacted the Orbitz customer service. The customer service took very long, the lady yelled us very rude that we had been sitting in the lobby for an hour and we either had to pay the extra money or leave the hotel. Wt*?! We booked the non-refundable 2 days stay. There was still one day left. We also did not say we were not gonna pay. We just wanted to figure out what happened because we clearly did book family room. This was the worst experience we had in our entire life at a hotel. We were 2 foreigner girls and don't speak turkish. We felt she was taking advantage of this and threatening us. We did end up paying the extra because orbitz refused to refund the one day stay if we decided to leave the hotel. Oh btw, we were asked to pay much more than the difference of the two rooms if booking online. We stayed in a few other hotels in Istanbul and their service was profesional and breakfast was much better. There were still hair in the bathroom and strong cigarette smell from bedding that embedded to my hair. Stay away from this hotel!

Mostly great!

Our checkin was easy & someone helped bring up our bags, which was really great. Nice place to stay, but there was a dirty towel on the back of the door when we arrived, & that grossed us out a bit. Everything else was good & we were comfortable.

I spent 2 nights at Sidonya. I had a double room that was small but efficient for 1 person. The bathroom and shower was very small, almost uncomfortable to take a shower but not too bad. The room was decently clean however it definitely could have been much cleaner. This hotel is on a very loud street so it was hard to sleep. It is close to major locations in Kadikoy but keep in mind most taxis will not drive up to the hotel, so expect a walk up a hill with your luggage. I enjoyed the breakfast the most during my stay, good food options and lovely view of the sea. Overall a good hotel for budget options.
