Azade Hotel

Conveniently located near Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, other Old City attractions and public transportation system. They may consider improving breakfast and cleanliness. Nice and helpful front desk staff.

A welcoming Multilingual receptionist, the restaurant has a super nice view but the breakfast wasn’t that good! The room we booked was nice but some kid painted it with his own opera d’arte! They should’ve take care of covering or whipping it out.

I stayed for one night on the 12th July. We booked a dulux superior sea view room at £97. I will start with the pros. The location is very central, everything around opens till late. The receptionist Sinan is very polite and very helpful. The building itself is lovely, with nice details especially in one of the elevators with the wooden door and mirror interior. The rooms are outdated, in need of repair and in need of a deep clean. The room is in no way superior, nor dulux nor a sea view. It is a standard room with a partial sea view. To see the sea, you have to stand in the window. And half the sea is blocked by a building next door. Sinan tried his best to show us his other available rooms but they were worse for wear and we understood that the title dulux has been given to a general room that was an overreach. The room was not cleaned well but after a generous tip to the cleaners, they came back and did it again. I understood that the people before checked out late and in a rush to prepare the room, the ladies didn’t clean very thoroughly. After all this, we were too tired to go out for lunch, thankfully Sinan helped us order in, we appreciate that. The top floor has a terrace with a view of the sea but the windows haven’t been cleaned in a long time so it’s foggy to see, a shame. Breakfast was a disappointment. The only thing that saved it was the homemade cake that the cook made the day before, delicious and saved the breakfast. All in all, nothing special about the hotel, £97 is way too much for this place. The hotel offered me a 25£ refund after I complained to agoda about the room and they called the manager. Would stay again if the room is priced at 55/60 a night, no more really.

It's too expensive for what they give you, comparing to Aparthotel Hippodrome ( much cleaner, beautiful and cheeper ) !!! I found hair in and on the toilet!!!! The position is good, they give you parking and it's close to Grand Bazar!
