I was supposed to stay at this hotel for three days and extend my stay if I was satisfied. Fortunately, this hotel is very clean, safe, and comfortable, with the best access to the city center. The staff's behavior is very friendly. Mr. Nihat is one of the best, highly responsible, and ensures excellent supervision of the restaurant and breakfast management. The atmosphere inside the hotel is very friendly, and the staff's behavior is polite and respectful. Mr. Guylen, the hotel interior manager, is very organized and meticulous. I am very satisfied and even extended my stay at this hotel for another week. Whenever I come to Istanbul again, I will choose this hotel.

Good property for the value. I won’t stay there in future.

Would of stayed more but the price went up for other days

I loved this boutique hotel, on the coner in the thick of things.walkable to a lot of tourists spot. Lively and active area like NYC . Yet in the hotel quiet and comfortable. Be careful in clubs, 2 in our group were scammed by women who work with the club. Also get the hotel to arrange for Taxi -$35.00 when they did it, $80 when we did.

Love it

Overall good experience

The staff at the reception and in the breakfast area were so professional. Will done. I surly be back again in the future. So clean and modern hotel. Nice area close to public transport.

For sure I will take this hotel next time I visit Istanbul

I took this hotel after I tried it one month ago. I can say every thing was fine; location, shopping, hotel room, hotel’s staff, room terrace, Gem, swimming pool…etc. The hotel is closed to every thing you may need. For sure next time I will this hotel without any reluctant

Excellent emplacement près de la place taksim.le petit déjeuner intercontinental est très variés.la piscine le sonna et le hammam sont une grande valeur ajoutée.

Our recent stay at the Occidental Taksim Hotel in Istanbul was a wonderful experience that combined modern comfort with the dynamic atmosphere of one of the city’s most vibrant areas. Located just a stone’s throw away from Taksim Square, this hotel is ideally situated for both business and leisure travelers.

We stayed 4 nights and enjoyed. Very friendly staffs, very good breakfast. You can ask them to make you any type of omelette. It's very close to transportation and İstiklal street. I recommend this hotel.

Great quiet location close to everything walking to takim square and taxis ! Beautiful hotel great staff all so kind and helpful! First room bathroom was dirty tiles and old not renovated had smoke from other room come in and got sick !

Loved it!

Great hotel right at Taksim. There is a lot of choice and if this fits your budget it's an excellent option! Got upgraded to a balcony room so that helped! Good breakfast and great indoor pool and spa!

The hotel breakfast was decent also.

Great location

Nice hotel in a great location with access to many shops and restaurants. It is also priced fairly. Staff were very friendly and helpful as well.

Big comfy bed. Sunshine on the terrace. Fabulous breakfast. Friendly staff. What more do you need!?!

Friendly people very helpful Enjoy our stay

I was staying at the hotel as a solo traveller and found it extremely comfortable. The breakfast had a lot on offer. The room was very clean.

Excellent location

I had a bad experience upon check in and going 2 my room. Worst experience ever. But to the hotels credit they have done everything possible to make this up to me so credit is due. The stay has been fine afterwards and the hotel is a good place to stay. Credit to the check in desk AM who has done everything he could to smooth over the initial experience. Thank you Fettah Acar.

Great place to stay, great front desk staff who were very helpful

Service was excellent. The hotel location is fantastic

Wonderfull hotel Wonderfull staff

Excellent stay

Excellent stay at the occidental from check in till check out ,thanks to Esma who warmly welcomed us .Room was spacious and clean ,breakfast was good a special thanks to Talha.Location is the best just a short walk to Taksim square and istiklal street .Will definitely stay here again .

Exceptional stay

Outstanding service. I felt like I was a VIP.

Trash! Don’t stay here!

Nice

Location plus staff

Amazing location. Five mins from Taksim square. Plenty of stores nearby for grocery and eateries. The entrance of hotel is at a corner but the rooms are good sized and clean with adequate amenities. Staff was also very friendly.

This property has great and not so great elements. First the great. Service is amazing,so is housekeeping. Property is is relatively in good shape. Really get a feel for the history of Istanbul The not so good - A. Bathroom for a suite has only single sink and one bathroom B. Smelt second hand smoke coming from AC vent

It has a great location and the staff goes above and beyond. I really liked the cleanliness and comfort of the bed. I will definitely stay again. Front desk manager Gokhan has provided amazing service and care.

3 minutes walk to taxim

Location of the hotel was fantastic and the price we booked at was quite decent. Breakfast was ok. The shower temperature was horrible and quite dangerous for kids because it kept switching from warm to extremely hot and then cold without me adjusting it. Was very annoyed. The lady at reception was checking out wasn’t the friendliest and a bit rude.

Wonderful hotel. Muy buen hotel

The Hotel restaurant was truly great and with good price . The severs were polite and helpful Biltal was one of the server there and very good in explaining the food. Ahmet at the the reception was very helpful to explain the historical places and what to see and how to get there and arranging the tour as well. The room could get some renovation thogh ...

Unfortunately, my bathroom has a bad smell

Stopover before international flight

It was a stop over before our internationak flight and the stay was for few hours considering delayed flights and late completion of tour. Even then the warmth of walking into the hotel was great and welxomed by the friendly staff.

Exceptional Service by staff

We reached quite early than the check in time. But the staff ensured we were given a room as soon as possible when one is vacated. And once they did they upgraded us to a suite. Breakfast spread was really good and tasty. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms were very clean and well maintained. Overall a very good experience

Staff were friendly in general. However housekeeping weren’t very attentive when they clean the room. They repacked the coffee and sugar sachet that I already used inside the plastic bag and put it back on the counter. We also ordered an iron machine to the room (that’s supposed to already be available) but it didn’t work and it leaked water everywhere! Breakfast buffet was a bit messy and not very well organized as the staff didn’t seem to be properly trained and aware

Close to where the bus from the airport drops you off. Clean with friendly staff. Very close to Taksim Square and the metro. Noisy at night…but that apples to most of that area. Pool is not kid friendly since is 1.5 meters deep everywhere, there is a small jacuzzi. Buffet breakfast offers a variety of foods. Hotel restaurant was good. Our room with a king bed was nice and updated but room was a bit small for 2 adults and one small child. Overall a good value!

This is my second time staying at the Occidental Taksim Hotel. Location, service, staff were all excellent. Will be planning for my next visit soon.

Very close to the center and very clean hotel!!

A very good service and very clean and in a great location. Staff are awesome.

Very nice website

This is not a hotel that Americans like! Most of the receptionists didn't like questions or concerns and they had attitudes. I booked a room for 2 adults and one child, and they gave me a double bed (two full beds), I complained several times and the only thing I got was adding a third mobile bed, and offered me another room with the higher cost! My bathroom sink didn’t drain (I took picture), I told them and the only they did was to remove the pop-up and flange to let water drain!!! For the swimming pool make sure you have swim cap because you never know how much they will charge you! I paid 40 lira, 3 days later my nephew paid 75, and my brother had to pay 80 lira in cash for the same swim cap! It shows poor management and integrity of staff who work there. The only good thing about this hotel is the breakfast menu, that's it!

Good

Nice hotel. Good size room. Very upset to see blood stains on duvet cover. Also bed sheet had black stain Very close to taksim square. About 5 minutes walk. Took another half an hr to reach galata tower

Nice, clean hotel, off the main square, Taksim with many restaurants, café, convenience stores near by. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room had the necessary amenities. Breakfast was diverse and delicious.

We had a pleasant stay at Taksim Occidental , only a short walk from bustling Istiklal street. The staf was very polite and friendly and Covid 19 social distancing and safety measures are well respected in this hotel. Our room was spacious and clean , would only recommend improving the lighting in the room. Would definitely stay there next time i visit Istanbul.

Awesome stay

Room was very dusty when having a shower it flooded the bathroom overall housekeeping was poor

very good

Amazing location

It was nice staying

Perfect location, spanking clean property, helpful and friendly staff

When I wanted to extend I could not Expedia sent me to the hotel and the hotel raised the price on me

Disappointing, wouldn’t come back. I booked for a non-smoking room and I was given a room on the smoking floor. The tv bracket was partially broken which left the tv crocked. The table tops in the room were all dusty, and the walls are too thin. I could hear everything happening in the room next door. The only good thing was that the check in process was fast given the fact that I booked for the room 20 mins before arriving at the property.

Great time in Istanbul, conveniently located hotel close to the action

Great location, decent services, perfect price versus overall experience

A great experience but cold rooms, even with the heating turned on

Miss representing : The photo of the rooms when you choose 2 bed ls for 3 peaple , they only give you a queen With sofa bed. I had to cancel my first booking and rebook again Booked by Expedia; terrible Non reliable WIFI Noisy rooms= easily can hear all the little actions in other room Rude front desk Zero Willingness to help by staff

A good hotel in a very good location, 3 min to Taksim sq and 1 min to airport bus station

Great amenities and hotel located right at the heart of Taksim, making it easy to travel anywhere in Istanbul. The pool and spa area was so lovely and a great way to spend time indoors. I appreciated how the staff was friendly and always willing and able to help whenever I had any inquiry.

الفندق كان كثير قريب من ميدان التقسيم ومحطة المترو ومحطة havatus اللي توصل للمطار. الاكل ممتاز جدا، يجب تطوير خدمة التنظيف ووضع مناشف كل يوم، بدون الطلب لذلك. شكرا

Excellent everything was good , highly recommend it

Not good at all. At first, we booked 3 twin beds and not 2 twin beds and a sofa bed, the staff is terrible, service is disaster. Nothing is good regarding thi hotel. This hotel gave false informarion to expedia

I like the location and bads Don't like the cleaning

Reasonable but fair....

Stay was reasonably good after room had to be changed a couple of times. Rooms at the front (street view) were very noisey all night due to poor window insulation. They also charge for bottled water in the room even though they say not to drink the tap water. Cleaning service could have also been better often seemed like it had been rushed. Staff at front desk were always willing to help. So overall was reasonable stay after a couple of noisey nights.

Bad staff They dont help I have little mistake with my reservation Whith datea They dodnt even try to help

Very Good hotel and near to Taksim square

Highly recommended compared to the paid value and proximity to Taksim square. Would use it again and again

Nice hotel, close to transport

Arrived at he hotel, got the wrong room, but staff helped me & offered an extra bed for my daughter for free. Next day they moved us into a bigger room, very happy with their service.

Comfortable stay at the LaresPark

Hotel is comfortable, modern with state of the art technology; staff very friendly and helpful

Nice hotel, central location

Arrived at the hotel very early in the morning about 08 but no problem with checking in though check in time should be at 14:00. Comfortable room, good breakfast, nice hamam and swimming pool.

Clean and nice hotel

The hotel is clean and nice. It is close to the taxi station and the metro station.

Great Value and location

Very helpful staff, well appointed, spacious rooms right in the middle of it all with easy access to points of interest and public transportation. Would recommend.

Nice place. This was our second time in this hotel.

Perfect Location

Hotel was 2 minutes walking from Taksim and was surrounded by restaurants and cafes. It was great for night life and for being at the heart of the city. Public transportation is easily accessible from hotel.

Adequate hotel in a good location

This hotel is well located and offers all the basic requirements necessary for a tourist. I had asked for a room with king size bed, but was allocated a twin bed room. My request to the front desk clerk to recommend a high class restaurant was met with the suggestion of the kebab joint next door. Neither useful nor helpful. Nobody who stays here will be too shocked or disappointed, but there are better hotels in the immediate vicinity.

Fantastic Staff!

I had an amazing experience staying at LaresPark! The rooms were very clean, breakfast was great, the location is prime and last but not least the staff are outstanding. Specially, Sahil and Cihan at the reception desk. They literally went above and beyond to help make my stay more comfortable and enjoyable. Weather it was asking for directions, asking about tourist areas or just simply asking for a towel. Thank you for your kindness and helpfulness Sahil and Cijan. I will be back!!

Basic good hotel

Excellent basic hotel, super location and top service.

Amenities are at walking distance

Over all good Hotel but very bad internet speed all around specially in rooms. Good dishes served in restaurant but Breakfast buffet wasn't having good choices.

Nice but wouldn't stay there again Mattress hard

Some hotel staff very friendly and some front desk folks during some shifts not very customer friendly Bed mattresses hard Hotel on busy street with loud music at night Room cleaning unpredictable on some days

Very nice hotel in center Taksim

It was as expected, i had no problems at all with any demand or service requested. The room was booked in the same conditions of my reservation. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was located in a high floor as per my request. The services of the departments in the hotel was very fast and professional (room service, housekeeping, spa, ... Etc). The receptionists we very fast with the check-in and check-out.

Great staff and a good location

The staff at the hotel are wonderful.

LaresPark hotel 05-11 Nov 14

Fantastic hotel. Located 2 minute walk to Taksim Square. Lots of places to dine and Drink. Local barber and in house beauty Salon. Pool, sauna and gym was great as well as the Turkish bath. Mr Lavent was very helpful prior to my arrival as well as my stay. Ms Rihda (?) was very helpful as well as the rest of the staff. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Very nice hotel, perfect location

Excellent for the value , very good breakfast, nice staff. Close to everything . Definately recommend it
