Elan otel; genelde Kuzey Kıbrıs Türk Cumhuriyeti vatandaşlarını misafir eden, Kıbrısı ve Kıbrıslıları en iyi şekilde ağırlayan çok güzel bir otel. Hatta eğer benim gibi oza kahve (kıbrıs Mağusa kahvesi) bile bulunduran harika bir otel. Teşekkürler🙏🙏🙏. Daha öncede olduğu gibi istanbul seyahatlerimde kuşkusuz konaklayacağım ve yalnız gezen bir gezgin olarak güvende olduğumu hissettiğim ender yerlerden biri.. ....

Fantastic

Elan hotel is a excellent choice. The location is near everywhere. It’s very close to Galata Tower, Karaköy, the Galata bridge and Eminönü. When it comes to the hotels stuff. I must say that they are very hospitable. The way I’m used to when it comes to Turkey. The service is great and the breakfast is amazing. You will have a typical Turkish breakfast,which we love. We had a room for 4 people. And it was plenty of space and comfortable beds. The only thing is that you hear the noice from the street. It will be solved with just an earplugs. Last but not least, I want to say that Uğur bey at the reception is a very service minded, genuine and hospitable person. He helped us a lot! We are so grateful to him. We will definitely stay at this hotel next time we come to Istanbul. Thank you Elan Hotel!

This place is awful. Looks somewhat new from the outside but old and tiny when you go in. The issue is the bald guy at the reception desk. He's a conman and very dishonest. I had a paid reservation booked in advance but when I arrived to the hotel baldy said he didn't see one in his system and that I needed to pay for my stay. I even showed him my reservation but he still claimed it was not in the system. These people are crooks, steer FAR from here!!

Beautiful ocean view room in Beyoglu

Uphill area, opposite to Soho house but I had better views of ocean from my room than Soho.Cabd at times had difficulty finding the area but thankfully it is near Shishane metro station,shishane2 busstop and across the road Shishane 1. Bed is a bit too soft. Rooms are cosy. Wow view and windows open though an annoying drummer group that charged itself at dusk downstairs can be annoying.Loads of good eats and supermarket few steps closer but not suitable for families with stroller as area needs slot of hiking which I enjoyed. Istiklal street ,cafes 2 minutes away. They got a night manager who is pleasant and bell boy helpful. Front desk manager in the morning is not very welcoming though. And he made a mistake with my room without even checking the catagory of booking.Upon my complain he said the ocean view catagory was full. Half and hour later the bell boy quickly arranged my desired room n helped me shift which was prompt. Overall it was a very pleasant stay.Fridge,coffee maker n coffee supplies in room n a mini bar.Breakfast is ample but only between 8to10Am.

Yazanlarla alakasız Bi otel.

Oda deniz manzaralı yazıyordu ve fiyatı diğer odalardan pahalıydı.fakat deniz manzarası yoktu. 4.kattan oda verdiler. Banyo ve oda fotoğraftakilerden çok daha küçüktü. Yani fotoğraflar tamamen aldatmaca. Verdiğim paraya üzüldüm. Keşke standart Bi oda seçseydim.
