“Nice place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013 via mobile

Customer service very good. We arrived having only just made a booking online 45 mins previously. It had yet to come through on their system so the receptionist gave us vouchers to get a free drink in the lounge bar while she sorted it. Very polite and helpful as were all the staff. I recommend the half price cocktails in... More

“Excellent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 May 2013

Excellent - wonderful breakfast with huge choice of all those things you want - cheese, fruit, salad, olives, fantastic bread - coffee not good. My room was quiet and there is a splendid pool in the basement large enough for swimming . The only downside was an inability on the part of the reception staff to deliver written messages as...

“NOT 5 STARS!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 May 2013

When you see 5 stars, you think plush, luxurious, spotless, and extra efficient. This place misses the mark on most counts. The room was so tight that it was barely functional (I dont know how two people manage), you can hardly turn around in the bathroom, and the shower is DANGEROUS! The clincher for me though was the bed and... More

My husband and I spent 3 days in Istanbul in April 2013. We were first afraid to book in this hotel because the reviews didn't seem to be that good. Since we were booking just a few days before our trip and most of hotels were fully booked we had no choice, at least Elite world is rated as a... More

“Nice hotel, but a couple of items to share with readers”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 May 2013

Stayed in the hotel in late April before the "air conditioning" is officially turned on for the summer season. My room faced west and became an oven in the late afternoon and didn't have a window to open. The windows on the east side have windows that open. The A/C was finally turned on during our stay. Also, the outside... More

Stayed here at the start and end of a Turkish tour. I liked the complimentary turkish delights in the lobby. Check in was alright, but we had a bit of room trouble for one of the rooms (the king sized bedroom is significantly smaller that the twin single bedroom and does not have a standing shower) and had to move...

Just spent three days in Istanbul staying at the Elite Hotel, and whilst we will be returning to Istanbul again soon, it won't be to this hotel. We booked the Elite online because it was advertised as a well-located 5 star hotel - unfortunately it turned out to be neither. Whilst the hotel is situated in a popular little area... More
