Crowne Plaza Istanbul - Ortakoy Bosphorus By Ihg, Istanbul

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room, although a bit small for my liking, was clean and decent. The service, despite some language barriers, was friendly and prompt. The location was convenient for my plans, albeit a bit noisy due to traffic. The dining options were satisfactory, with a good variety available. The facilities were adequate but nothing extraordinary.

I loved the hotel's location, surrounded by many supermarkets, restaurants, and cafes, making it a convenient spot in Istanbul. The rooms, although lacking natural light and airing due to the absence of windows, were decent if you're lucky to get a good one. The service had its ups and downs, with English-speaking staff but a slight disappointment with the view mix-up. The facilities offered were satisfactory, adding to the overall stay experience.

My recent stay at the hotel was pretty average. The rooms were decent - not too small, not too big, just okay. They had air conditioning, and you could open a window if needed, but nothing extraordinary. The service was a bit of a letdown; they were not very helpful when we wanted to change our room, and there was some street noise. On the bright side, they had a good understanding of English. The location was convenient for business areas, but nothing exceptional. The dining was nothing special, but it was nice to sit outside on the terrace by the pool. Overall, a mediocre experience.

The hotel had a room that was not too small, not too big, and somewhat old and rusty. The air conditioning worked, and you could open a window, but there was nothing special about it. The service on the 3rd floor, especially the airport transfer, was very good, but some staff members were rude and disrespectful. The location was fantastic if you didn't want to be in SultanAhmet, offering proximity to bars and restaurants. The dining experience was underwhelming with insufficient tables for guests. Overall, the facilities were substantial but uninspiring.

My stay at the hotel was overall enjoyable. The rooms facing the pool were now very clean compared to the older rooms, and although they seemed a bit run down, they were adequate for my four-night pre-paid stay. The service was good, especially on the 3rd floor with a pool view, but I did have an encounter when the staff overseeing reception was not very courteous. The location was convenient, being close to the Besiktas mosque and nice restaurants along the corniche, but the constant traffic noise from the busy bridge made it hard to relax by the pool. The dining experience was decent, offering a good variety of choices even though some items were occasionally served cold.
