Cleanless

Sohaib 10.0

In a very lively neighborhood of Beyoglu. Steps from Istiklal street. Short walk from Metro station. Very friendly and cooperative staff. Will definitely consider on my next Istanbul visit.

Gregory 9.0

The staff couldn't have been nicer or more helpful The location is excellent. Just two blocks away is the famous İstiklal Avenue with the historic tram running down the middle of this pedestrian street. What I loved was that to get to the waterfront you walk downhill. The area has a wonderful mixture of cafés and restaurants to suit every taste. Our room was quiet. It was at the back of the hotel facing the alley behind.

Location is best

Mikhail 9.0

We like hotel and our room. Especially pleasant was good ventilation and air condition of the room. Hotel is in commercial centre of Istanbul with intensive night life, open windows is bad option for sleeping. So good ventilation and air condition is very important. We slept comfortably with close windows.

Bassem 8.0

Amazing location and very good breakfast All the staff were welcoming and speaking English. The cleaner lady was very friendly and our baby boy spent time with her more than us 😍 she’s very good person. Location only steps away from istiklal street

Helene 9.0

Beautiful old building in the heart of Taksim, literally half a block from the main shopping street. Very close to public transportation, with numerous restaurants in close proximity. The front desk staff helped us pull off a big surprise for a friend's birthday and kept us updated every step of the way. Very helpful and professional in making transfer and activity arrangements.

Mustafa 10.0

The rooms and bathroom are spacious. The high ceilings provide extra airiness. The bed and pillows are comfortable. It is very clean. The housekeeping service is impeccable. I would like to extend my special thanks to the lady providing the housekeeping service. The breakfast is of excellent quality and sufficient. If I need to stay in the Beyoğlu area, this will be my only choice. I would like to thank all the staff and the hotel owners.

Achraf 9.0

First of all, I would like to thank the staff for their warm welcome, especially Haltir at the reception. Taxim Lounge Hotel is very clean with excellent service. The only downside was some late-night noise due to several cafés and bars nearby. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I would definitely come back if I visit Istanbul again. Important note: There is a nearby café called Kharon Cafe & Bar. Its owner is racist towards Arabs, so I strongly recommend avoiding this place.

Zabeen 10.0

My family and I stayed at this hotel for 10 nights. The hotel rooms are large and very clean. The hotel is located right behind Istikaal Street which is a bonus. The daytime team leader Kadir is experienced, friendly and was willing to answer all our questions. Thank you very much Kadir, you are an asset for your hotel. The staff at the restaurant also had exceptional customer service. Deniz, Gurbet, Ahmed and Shezgin were welcoming at the breakfast time and always said hello to make us and other visitors comfortable. The variety of breakfast changed daily and we never got bored of the food. A special thank you to Deniz for her kindness and assistance with breakfast. All the staff give their best to ensure people get what they need during breakfast time. I recommend this hotel to anyone and when I return to Istanbul, I will only stay at this hotel.

Hiba 8.0

The staff were very nice, they were helpful and we could change our room easily. The rooms are very good, and modern. The breakfast was very good. The location is amazing for those who want to be in the hart of Isteklal street, it can be hectic though.

Adelina 9.0

We had a very pleasant stay at the hotel. We werewas satisfied with the facilities, the convenient location, and the breakfast provided. Additionally, I highly recommend Kharon Cafe, which is located near the hotel. The food there is very good, reasonably priced, and the environment is welcoming and comfortable — a great place to relax and enjoy a meal.
