Ulasan Sofitel Istanbul Taksim

Hotel is conveniently located, but in need of renovation. Service is okayish, but not many people can speak English. View is beautiful from the rooms facing Taksim square

Don’t stay there, absolutely horrible staff, horrible management, horrible service and NO WATER! The bathroom has leakage and AC doesn’t work! Horrific experience EVER! Terrible hygiene and rundown condition!

bellboy, securities officer, and room cleaner are excellent. a majority of front officer is horrible!

Extremely spacious room. Offered a refreshing drink every afternoon as well. Concierge was helpful to guide us where to visit etc. Highly recommend

We stayed in two rooms, including a Superior Suite. Both rooms were very clean, and the staff were polite and always eager to help. The breakfasts were good, and the room service menu was excellent. The location also deserves a special mention — it’s easy to reach any part of the city by public transport.

Its location is good and we add its price is very high, there is a better alternative

We stayed 2 nights at Sofitel Istanbul Taksim and honestly had a really comfortable experience throughout our stay in Istanbul. The room was spacious, modern, and comfortable enough for us to properly rest after long days exploring the city. The hotel itself feels luxurious yet still very convenient for travelers, especially if you plan to move around Istanbul using public transportation. One of the best things about this hotel is definitely the location. Taksim Square is literally just around the corner, making it super easy to access the metro, buses, airport shuttle, and other public transport connections around the city. Whether you’re visiting the Old City, Galata, Bosphorus area, or even heading to the airport, everything feels very accessible from here. Another thing we enjoyed was the food scene around the hotel. There are plenty of restaurants, cafés, and convenience stores nearby. The kebab restaurant right in front of the hotel was surprisingly good — and the best part is, it opens 24 hours, which was perfect for late-night supper after a long day walking around Istanbul. Overall, we genuinely enjoyed our stay at Sofitel Istanbul Taksim. Great location, comfortable rooms, easy transportation access, and lots of food nearby. Definitely a hotel we would consider staying at again when visiting Istanbul.

Hands down the best choice for our Istanbul trip! It's perfectly located right at the beginning of Istiklal Avenue, making it incredibly convenient for the metro and airport shuttle. The facilities are top-notch, and the service is so warm and welcoming. Plus, the 9th-floor rooftop is amazing – you can see the Bosphorus on one side and the whole city on the other. Absolutely fantastic!

The hotel's location is excellent, right by Taksim Square. From the airport, take the No. 16 bus to the last stop, then follow your navigation. The bellhop was very enthusiastic and brought our luggage to the room. The room was quite spacious, just as described. It's also very convenient to get to Dolmabahçe Palace via the F1 tram. On our second day, while waiting for our transfer, the hotel staff kindly invited us to wait in the lobby and offered to watch for our car, as it was very cold outside. Such thoughtful service!

Location is unbeatable,very neat and clean hotel, staff all helpful. Will definitely stay next time and rooms very very quiet being centrally located

All the hotel staffs were so friendly and nice. The service was excellent. Would totally came back if I were to travel to Istanbul again. Such a convenient location with the metro within a few minutes away and with taksim square right infront.

The hotel's location isn't great. Other than being close to Istiklal Avenue, it's far from everything else. Getting to attractions involves a really long downhill walk, and if you take a taxi, it's a long way around and expensive. The hotel facilities are old. The toilet always needs to be flushed twice, otherwise it keeps running. The bedding, however, was relatively clean. We booked a standard twin room, and the window faced another residential building's window, so there was absolutely no view. Every time you enter the hotel, you have to go through security. I'm not sure if this is a rule for all hotels. The breakfast staff were quite enthusiastic, but the food was basically all cold, even though there was a good variety. It was just all cold. I wouldn't stay here again.

Great location, rooms are a bit tired with signs of wear and tear. Rooms with connecting doors can cause issues with noise coming through from neighbours. Also had some issues with internal phones during my stay.

Over 1,000 [yuan/currency unit] felt overpriced. The location is convenient, but the breakfast was terrible.
