DoubleTree by Hilton Istanbul Esentepe

To be honest its a nice hotel.. lots of cafes nearby.. It isn't the fanciest hotel but for the price you pay thats a given.. stayed for a week and the staff were very pleasant. Our room was cleaned on a daily basis and the room was ok in size.. the one problem i had was the lobby was too small but i dont see that being a problem for a lot of people..

Good but some small details make it better The room can be bigger, no toothbrush, The showers( just dush

The hotel, staff and service is of good standard, nothing extraordinary. the corridor we stayed on smelt of cigarette smoke on two separate nights (we stayed for 7 nights), I suppose guests are allowed to smoke in the corridors as I didn't see any No smoking signs. Lots of people with bandaged heads (hair transplants) walking around the hotel- I suppose this is a norm in Istanbul as its the new capital of hair transplants. hotel location ok, its three stops to Taskim on the metro. Overall its an Ok hotel.

I was there with my mom and we both enjoyed our stay in this hotel. Wonderful staff

The hotel was not too bad. It was rated as a five star - I'm not convinced by this. Four star at best. Location is OK - this does depend on where you need to be - it's about 15-20 minutes from Taksim square in a cab. The reception staff are friendly as are the restaurant staff. The breakfast is average but the staff are always there to make something for you. The room was OK - the duvet is a little small for the King Size bed and the bed is quite soft. Bathroom is nice and the shower was OK too. The slippers are a bit of a joke to be honest - they were like the ones you might be given if you are having an operation - very flimsy, tissue like and extremely thin. Plenty of towels too. So overall not too bad, clean, friendly and tidy but not 5 star.

We came to Istanbul as tourists, the hotel staff were amazing, they made our stay comfortable. We would like to thank Baris for being so friendly and extremely helpful.

Sink would not drain quickly. The electric socket was broken. AC would turn off automatically after a certain period of time. Location was central. Check-in was easy.

Great service for a fantastic price. Definitely recommend it. Also, the hotel has a fabulous location close to many shopping centers and public transport. Large rooms and friendly staff. Overall, this is a great choice if you plan to stay for a long time.

I understand this hotel has changed hands recently to the Hilton Double Tree. One expects a level of standard with such a brand. In short it is not anywhere near close to my expectations. A very tired hotel which looks unloved. Rooms that are not cleaned even when reminded at reception. Other guests hair all over the floor in my room. And mould in the dark dingy bathrooms. Begging for an extra body wash as the room was only given one gives you an idea of how poor this location is

The hotel has a narrow small lobby that is not qualified for a 5* hotel, but the staff and room quality, amenity and cleanliness is top Hilton class.
