This hotel is really comfortable and especially Burçin she’s really kind, we had lot of conversations with her thank you for everyone that helped us in the hotel. The rooms are clean every time we came to the hotel it’s always cleaned. The breakfast was good they had less but it was still tasty. Thank you.
We have just spent 2 nights at this hotel. We are on an organized tour of Turkïye and did not chose the hotels. When I read the reviews on this website prior to our trip, I was worried. However, having just left the Ibis Styles Istanbul Merter this morning, I can say that the negative reviews do not reflect our experience at this hotel. Furthermore, we did not hear any negative comments from anyone in our large group.|The hotel is modern and very clean. Our room was attractive, with a large window, spotless washroom with shower, and a comfortable bed. We had a kettle with tea and coffee and mugs, and 2 free bottles of water on both days. We were too tired to watch TV, but there were some international channels available I believe, for sure BBC World. There are plenty of electrical sockets, including over each night table. The WiFi was free and fast. There was a desk and a chair, as well as an armchair in the room. The breakfast was great and begins before 7 am.|The only negative about this hotel is the distance from the city center. However, there is a tram stop for the T1 tram line within a few minutes walk from the hotel that takes you directly to the historic center without having to change trains. |I have to mention the helpfulness of all the staff we encountered, and in particular of Can at the front desk, and the bellman on duty on the day of our arrival, who were very generous of their time in explaining to us how to get to the tram and how to get tickets.
