Positive surprise

The hotel was a really positive surprise! It was better than expected and well worth the price. The bed was comfortable as were the pillows. Room was small but if you spend most of your days outside, it doesn’t matter. It was kept clean the whole stay. The shower and toilet was basic, but clean. Breakfast was also just very basic, but enough. After few days it was too much, so we went outside for a breakfast. Only minus was the cigarette smell! It was supposed to be a non-smoking room and non-smoking floor, but the cleaner ladies were smoking there all the time, and at evenings someone too. It was awful to wake to a cigarette smell in the morning, as the cigarette smoke came into my room. That is something they really need to do something.

Tayhan Otel ; İstanbul’daki Eviniz

Fiyat-Performans ilişkisi, personel ilgi ve hizmeti, temizlik, konfor, işlem süreçlerinin hızı, kahvaltı çeşitliliği, merkezi yerlere yakınlığı açısından son derece güzel, başarılı ve tatmin edici olduğunu söyleyebilirim. Bununla birlikte, otelin biraz yenilenmeye ihtiyacı olduğu kanaatindeyim. Son olarak bu otelde konaklamaktan gayet memnun kaldığımı ifade etmek isterim. İstanbul seyahatlerimde her zaman ilk tercihim olacaktır.

We’ve been a group of 9 people, we took 4 rooms (3,2,2,2) at Tayhan hotel. The rooms are very poor and small and in a bad condition, shower broken, Air conditioner broken, bathroom poor, breakfast not at a good level also old elevator and old building, pictures shown online aren’t fair at all. The location also isn’t the best, the hotel is located at a very trafficking/traffic street which all taxi drivers refuse to deliver or pickup from the location. Also as we discussed the issue with Turkish friends, they have told us that the hotel is located at an area where which is “not safe”. I do not recommend to anyone at all.

Hôtel en perte de qualité.

Hôtel que j'ai déjà journée il y a quelque année, mes rien a changé très vétuste la douche en très mauvaise état qui fuit de partout et surtout beaucoup trop de bruit des portes qui clac très tard la nuit et pour le petit déj c'est la catastrophe des mouches sur les rondelles de saucisson et fromage le beurre qui ne reste pas au frais donc infecte. Dommage car le personnelle est très gentille et serviable.

3 star hotel 'walking' distance to Aksaray/Beyazit

I was greeted by a robot when I arrived. They had to check and verify, and had to wait 15 minutes to get the keys. But this wasn't a problem since the check in time was 15:00 and I arrived there at 13:00. Now the first thing you need to be aware of, is that even though this is a budget hotel, and within a 'walking' distance to Beyazit/Aksaray, you have to walk up a hill for 10-15 minutes. Not exactly comfortable if it's summer season. Another thing is that there are many families who stay in this hotel, especially from Morocco, and since the walls are paper thin, you will not have easy time sleeping. But luckily the people next to me were not noisy.

Gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis - schöne Lage

Frühstück einfach, aber für den Preis ok. Der größte Plußpunkt: Hier ist man in einem sehr lebendigen und authentischen Viertel von Istanbul und das muß man mögen. Zu Fuß sind Altstadt, Straßenbahn, Fischmarkt Kumkapi schnell zu erreichen.
