Sehr freundliches Personal aber schlechte Zimmer
Im Hotelzimmer befindet sich zwar alles was man so braucht, aber sauber waren die Zimmern leider nicht. Wir haben uns bei Ankunft 2 weitere Zimmer angeschaut weil wir nicht zufrieden waren. Aber haben uns dann letztendlich für das 3. Zimmer im 2. Stock (für 40€ Aufpreis, da wir Basemant Economy gebucht hatten und das befindet sich im Keller) entschieden, weil das eher am "saubersten" war. Im Bad befanden sich mehrere Haare auf dem Boden. Bei den Bettwäschen hatte man an manchen stellen kleine flecken. Wir waren 4 Nächte dort und getauscht wurden die Handtücher im Bad zwar täglich aber dafür die Bettwäsche garnicht. Personal war sehr freundlich da kann man nicht meckern. Also wem die Sauberkeit von den Zimmer nicht soo wichtig ist, dann ist das Hotel schon Ok.

Мошенники! fraudsters!
Добрый день! Хотелось бы довести до вашего сведения, что в этом отеле разводят на деньги при заселении. Я бронировала отель со 2.09 по 3.09. Заселялась ночью, о чем указывала при бронировании. На стойке регистрации персонал отказаться разговаривать со мной на английском, русском и упорно вел беседу на турецком. Через мин 30 пререканий выяснилось, что мне надо было почему-то бронировать с 1.09 на 2.09. И мои данные появятся у них только после 8.00. Затем речь пошла о том, что меня с моим парнем не имеют права заселять, тк мы не семейная пара. Почему это не указано на сайте? Наверное потому что это развод. Дело кончилось тем, что 60 tl решили вопрос, хотя номер стоил 48 tl. И ура! через час переговоров, персонал с довольной ухмылкой отдали нам ключи от номера с тараканами, сломаным душем и грязными полами.

Erste-Klasse-Service, Interessante Gegend
Wir wurden trotz später Stunde überaus freundlich und zuvorkommend empfangen. Der junge Mann an der Rezeption beantwortete trotz später Stunde alle unsere Fragen und gab uns eigeninitiativ einige Tipps. Auch an den folgenden Tagen wurden wir bei jeder Begegnung im Frühstücksraum oder an der Rezeption überaus freundlich begrüßt. Auch unsere 8-jährige Tochter wurde als eigener Gast wahrgenommen (oft werden Kinder in solchen Zusammenhängen eher ignoriert und der Service ist eher an die „Zahlenden“ gerichtet): alle Hotelangestellten begrüßten sie liebevoll und offenherzig, wenn sie sie sahen. Unser Zimmer war klein und einfach. Es hatte aber funktionierende Aircondition, einen kleinen Kühlschrank, Fernseher, Ganzkörperspiegel und einen Tresor. Es gibt jeden Tag frische Handtücher, Duschgel, Seife, Bodylotion. Das Frühstück ist einfach aber lecker. Es wird von einer freundlichen Frau vorbereitet, die auch die Zimmer reinigt. Das Ciwan-Hotel liegt in Fatih – einer interessanten Gegend mit niedlichen Straßen und Gassen (zum Teil sehr steile Straßen). Es gibt fußläufig zahlreiche Restaurants und Cafés, kleine und große Möglichkeiten Lebensmittel einzukaufen, sowie Kleidung. Die nächste Tramstation Beyazit ist 10 Minuten entfernt. Ebenso weit ist es bis zum großen Basar. Zu Fuß bis Sarayburnu sind es ca. 20 Minuten. Wenn ich das nächste Mal nach Istanbul komme, würde ich wieder im Ciwan übernachten!

L'hôtel et pas mal,proche des sites touristique.
L'hôtel se trouve dans un quartier vraiment mal entretenu, mais elle est très proches de la majorité des monuments historique, a partire de l'hôtel ont peut presque tous les faire à pied,et le tramway et tout pré. Attention aux commercent très collantes.

Tresor(Fenster ausblick auf eine Wand wo Klima geräte sind) (Personal oft Laut Abends) Tür zu Undicht. Frühstück war Gut gemischt aber immer das gleiche. Im Grossen und ganzen war es von eine Note von 1-6 eine gute 3+ es wurde zwar sauber gemacht aber kleine ecken etc gab es immer was zu meckern da oft kleine Haare nach dem Putzen noch da waren,, also wenn mann Richtig geguckt hat, hat man auch etwas dreck endeckt.
