Lovely location, just a hop from everything. The room sparkled clean, and there was a fun little cleaning sign system I found out about only after asking. A quirky touch, but they could’ve mentioned it sooner!

The service was a bit like a surprise party—unexpected! And changing sheets while we were there? Gourmet drama, darling!

The hotel has a great fitness center, spa, and indoor pool. I really enjoyed the spacious and clean rooms. After a stressful day, the Turkish bath was perfect for unwinding. Felt fabulous after my massage!

The location near Taksim Square made exploring the city a breeze. Spacious rooms felt clean and comfortable, with big beds perfect for relaxation. The fitness center and spa offered great amenities, adding to my enjoyable stay. However, I faced issues with staff respect for privacy. They opened my room without permission and even moved my luggage. When I complained, management seemed indifferent. It was frustrating and diminished the experience. Despite these setbacks, the overall atmosphere remained pleasant, and the daily housekeeping was appreciated. Wi-Fi worked well most of the time, which was crucial for staying connected. Breakfast needed more variety, as some items were often missing. Overall, the positives were strong but marred by the service incident.

I had a fantastic stay, exceeding my expectations compared to previous stays in istanbul. The location was perfect, just minutes from metro access. The breakfast included fresh pastries and homemade jams

the shower drainage was slow.

Fantastic location with diverse breakfast offerings

I had an enjoyable stay with a prime location just minutes from Taksim Square. The breakfast was particularly delightful, featuring freshly made omelets and various local specialties that changed daily. The cleanliness of the rooms was commendable, and the staff were very accommodating. However, the shower drainage was a bit slow, which could be improved.

It was just a perfect match for a weekend respite in Istanbul with fantastic value for money. We were kindly upgraded to a suite that had a huge balcony and three bathrooms, which was a pleasant surprise. Make sure to ask about parking options if you’re driving in.

The breakfast was superb, offering a variety of

delicious options, and the staff were incredibly friendly. However, the room could have used some maintenance, as we encountered a few issues with the bathroom fixtures.

incredible cleanliness, attentive service, and a relaxing spa experience made my stay unforgettable

Perfect cleanliness and incredible service!

The Occidental Taksim Hotel offered a comfortable atmosphere with friendly staff. The location near Taksim Square made exploring easy. While the breakfast had limited variety, everything else, particularly the attentive service and cleanliness, made for an enjoyable stay.

discover charming parks and iconic landmarks with ease

I loved that this hotel was a short walk away from the stunning Dolmabahce Palace and had easy access to many cozy cafes for a delightful breakfast in the vibrant Taksim area, which made my city strolls so enjoyable. the staff were incredibly welcoming and always eager to help with recommendations.

The indoor pool was refreshing, while the shower drainage was annoyingly slow.

Location is top-notch, just a stone's throw from Taksim Square and major public transport, making city exploration a breeze. Breakfast offerings include a variety of fresh pastries and homemade jams, served in a clean dining area with nice street views.

The noise levels were a real issue, with street sounds and mosque calls breaking the serenity at odd hours. The shower drainage struggled to keep up, leading to an uncomfortable experience after a long day out. Also, the furniture felt a bit dated, and some areas seemed like they could use a fresh coat of paint or a deep clean. I found a lingering odor from the bathroom plumbing that had a hint of discomfort, indicating the need for regular maintenance. Basic amenities occasionally felt lacking upon arrival, especially in terms of toiletries.

great stay but minor improvements needed

The staff is genuinely friendly. Every interaction felt warm and welcoming. The comfortable room offered a beautiful city view.

The check-in process could be more streamlined.

A Convenient Stay with Great Service!

Our family enjoyed a memorable 6-night stay, appreciating the clean rooms and attentive staff. Breakfast offered diverse traditional dishes, though the coffee could use improvement. For a quiet night, consider earplugs due to nearby calls from mosques. Proximity to Taksim Square makes exploring effortless!

The hotel experience was disappointing overall. We faced several challenges, particularly with the noisy environment. The room sounded like it was right next to the street, making sleep difficult with frequent disturbances from the outside, including early morning calls from mosques. Additionally, the bath corner was not tall enough, leading to discomfort during showers. The area surrounding the hotel felt a bit unsafe at night, raising concerns about our safety, especially after hearing about pickpockets nearby.
