Aprilis Gold Hotel - Special Category

The location is very good, close to the tram line, supermarket, shops & restaurants, major tourist attractions all within 15-30minute walk, reception staff all very friendly and helpful

Comfy cosy and the most amazing customer service. They will go one mile ahead in order to help and facilitate you. One gem of of a team they have. Ismail at reception is true legend Alattan, always there to help if needed. Doaan, Murat, I mean the whole team is just simply fantastic, you go these big posh restaurants and there is hardly any customer but these guys from room service to reception to the porters ! Honestly they will make you feel home. Ismail thank you for the help and guidance, it’s people like you and your whole team who makes a difference to one’s stay. Pass my regards to everyone please. You won’t regret staying here and I am definitely coming again in sha Allah.

Everything was almost 10/10. Don’t think you can find a better location (maybe avoid if you aren’t athletic? it’s on a very steep hill), less than 10 minutes walk to the Hyppodrome, Hagia Sophia etc. Rooms are quite big, even though there’s lots of noise outside, the windows are very thick, almost soundproof, the bed is comfortable, and its extremely clean. The breakfast is also fantastic. Too bad they only had carrot cake the first two mornings we were there, it was a highlight, almost on par with Gulluoglu baklava (joking, but it was pretty good).

First of all, I must commend the staff of this property. They were all extremely good and made me feel very comfortable. The room I had was exceptionally spacious and the interior comfortable. The wifi worked perfectly. Breakfast had a fair variety of food but more hot selections could have been offered. The staff is easily capable of arranging tours and providing directions to areas of interest. The location of the hotel is an easy walk to transport and the Grand Bazaar - less than 10 minutes. Overall, I had a very positive experience during my stay.

The hotel was a very good value for money. Rooms are comfortable. Location very central. Staff was extremely helpful, friendly, and service oriented. Murat was great help in advising us on restaurants and tours and arranging everything from our Bosphorus tour to our transportation to the airport. Even though the entire staff was fantastic, I need to single out one more gentleman besides Murat. Unfortunately, I do not remember his name but my friend was asking for a very specific type of Turkish ice cream and where can we get it and he surprised us all and had these ice creams sent to our rooms. On the house. We are all very very happy with our stay. We will come back and recommend to our friends.
