IranWonderful manager, beautiful lobby, nice tennis courts with fantastic view
IranThe staff was so helpful They gave us early check in and late check out free of charge
IraqThe hotel has one of the best locations in Istanbul, overlooking the Bosphorus and the Palace. It’s surrounded by beautiful trees. It has all the facilities expected of a five star hotel. Staff are friendly. The breakfast buffet is very extensive, with many choices to satisfy all tastes and the food is good. The lobby lounge has an incredible view of the Bosphorus but is limited in food selection. The rooftop restaurant on the 16th floor is a must to experience, stunning views, good food and excellent service. I also liked the Hamam experience, not authentic but good non the less. My room has stunning view of the Bosphorus, Dolmabahce Palace, and Topkapi palace. Staff take corona virus precaution seriously and enforce wearing masks. All service location has masks for any customer who forgot to bring down a mask.
BahrainI truly enjoyed everything about The Swissotel! The hotel it’s self is beautiful and the view is unparalleled, but what made this stay especially wonderful was the way they made me feel extra special on my birthday. We were enjoying one of our wonderful buffet breakfasts when I was surprised with the chef and a few staff members singing happy birthday with a beautiful pancake bday cake they had made for me. When I asked how they knew they said they take great care/a point at check in to verify guests birthdays! What a special touch! They didn’t stop at the breakfast surprise. Later on that day they sent a chocolate cake ( my favorite )to my room! My daughter and I were so surprised and appreciative. I can’t remember a time I truly felt so surprised and remembered on my birthday! Thank you Swissotel and staff for making it so special!!!
