Vardar Palace Hotel  

Location.

Noise from nearby clubs..

Did not like anything. Have nothing good to say. The whole stay was a big pain.

Staff does not know English. Internet connection is very poor. Unable to do any email checking. Young man at reception does not understand English and is not willing to help. Do not choose this hotel. Rooms are very small.

Beds are very old and extremely uncomfortable, we are both very athletic and still had extreme back pain in the morning. This is not very good when you are suppose to rest well during the night and enjoy the day as much as possible!

Location was very nice. Close to istiklal street and the taksim metro station which was very important for me. İnternet was fast and reliable. All staff I encountered spoke good english and were helpful, nice people. Water pressure in the bathroom was very nice.

Bed was a little uncomfortable. I also got a room facing away from the street and it was quıet but i can imagine the noise level on a room towards the street being problematıc. Also alot of the times when guests staying next to my room would enter, it seemed like someone was entering my room. This was more of a annoyance than a problem. I would recommend this hotel to travellers looking for moderate comfort for a good price and great central location.

Convenient location; helpful and friendly front desk staff

There was redecoration going on at the time of my visit

Nice hotel, friendly staff, very willing to help you finding locations in Istanbul you want to visit, willing to help with public transport, nice places to eat etc. Nice large room for reasonable price, nearby shopping street. Taksim is a good starting place in visiting the major tourist attractions as the Blue Mosque, Topkapi, Grand Bazaar.

Although we booked a room in Euro's, we were obliged to pay in Turkish Lires (I payed with credit card, so it should not be any problem to pay in Euros). I am still wondering - have to check - if the hotel used a reasonable rate, but my first impression is that they used a rather high rate, meaning that we payed more than the original price in Euros.

Perfectly situated in the pulsating center of Istanbul, close to Taxi and Metro (Taksim station ca. 500 m). Roof terasse with nice view over Bosporus and city.

Nothing.... but the location is nice since its near to taksim

too old too creepy

Good location. Confortable. Good breakfast. It´s ok.

The staff was friendly. The room was tidy and clean. The breakfast was nice. The wireless connection was quite decent speed. I needed to work and the speed of the wireless connection helped.

Even though the room was large enough, the space around the single bed was restricted by the wall on one side, by a table on the other side.

Location of this hotel is great for exploring Taksim and other areas. It's only a few minutes to Taksim Square and all the public transport, as well as Istiklal Caddesi. It's also fairly quiet despite the location. Bathroom was very clean and room was spacious. Got a pretty good last minute deal, and for the price we paid, I definitely recommend it.

Location is perfect and one of the staff is excellent, if you're interested in enjoying Istanbul with fair hotel service in perfect location you've to book in this hotel

Something hot must be available in breakfast. Staff must be more friendly
