A very pleasant surprise

We loved the evening meals on the terrace, the swimming facilities and location. Breakfast could be better, tea was a stew and soft drinks rather odd - no fresh orange. However, the staff were helpful and we enjoyed our time. Very handy near the tram.

Family trip

The only thing that we liked about the hotel was the restaurant, the food that they serve and thier service is amazing. I didn't like the fact that the hotel rooms are too dark and the swimming pool is dark even on s day time.

Can easily be better

Reception staff on arrival very friendly and accommodated a late check in completely hassle free. Located in a very nice (busy) area near a lot of the touristy locations. Wifi is well below average with barely any coverage in rooms. Air conditioning in room very good. Swimming pool very good. Jacuzzi is on cold for some reason, and even though I requested warmer water since no one else was in it - they couldn't do this - never been in a cold jacuzzi. Breakfast was useless - very well below average. Although nice view from the restaurant. Staff in restaurant and generally around the hotel need to improve their hospitality skills - reception staff were the only outstanding ones. Had a massage for 25 USD - which was also very good. On checkout they tried to charge us for something we didn't get from the minibar - but this was easily resolved. Overall - not a 4* hotel - but could easily become one.

Hier ist meine Hotel Bewertung mit pro und kontra. Pro: - Die Lage ist sehr gut gelegen - Die Hotelzimmer sind grosszügig - Hat viele Läden in der direkten Umgebung - Tram-Station gleich 300m entfernt - Der grosse Bazar ist schnell erreicht - Schönes Terrassen Restaurant mit gutem Essen Kontra: - Sehr unfreundliches Personal. Man wird nicht mal begrüsst, geschweige denn beachtet. Helfen nicht wirklich bei Problemen. Wie es im Hotel abläuft bezüglich Spa, Pool und Frühstück muss man selber herausfinden - Die Zimmer wurden nicht mal richtig sauber gemacht vor der Übernahme. Es lag noch diverser Abfall auf dem Boden und unter dem Bett - Klimanlage wurde nicht repariert trotz Meldung, sie mache Störgeräusche - Frühstück für den Preis sehr dürftig. Vor allem muss man für Orangensaft und kleine Omeletten noch draufzahlen - Auch wenn der Hotel Name Darkhill ist, es ist gefährlich dunkel teilweise. Vor allem bei der Treppe zum Spa im U3... Fazit: Es ist vor allem fragwürdig, wie die 4 Sterne zustande gekommen sind. Es sind nämlich keine 4 Sterne wert! Beim nächsten Istanbul Aufenthalt werde ich mir ein besseres Hotel suchen.

Ich fand meine Aufenthalt angenehm. Personal war sehr nett, Kompliment. Die Zimmer sind ein wenig hellhörig und man sollte umbedingt ein "bitte nicht stören" Schild für die Putzfrauen organisieren. Die Putzfrauen kommen am morgen immer wieder einfach ins Zimmer!! Das geht gar nicht. Ausserdem ist der Transfer vom Hotel bis zum Flughafen eine Katastrophe!!! Ich hatte Todesangst mit diesem Taxifahrer zu fahren, der nebenbei seine Frau und Sohn dabei hatte. Ich finde sowas ganz schlimm, der ist wie ein Geistesgestörter gefahren und hat das ganze noch mit dem Handy gefilmt! Den Teasnfer umbedingt meiden!!!

Wir würden das Hotel nie weiterempfehlen, es ist sicher kein 4* hotel höchstens nur 1*. Das Bad ist sehr klein, sehr alt und sehr dreckig und es hatte überall Schimmel. Zimmer hatte kein Tageslicht und es war sehr dunkel.

Das Hotel befindet sich direkt beim Grand Bazaar, man hat die Möglichkeit die Metro zu nutzen, reichliche Auswahl an verschiedenen Restaurants in der Umgebung und freundliches Personal. Bezüglich den von Händlern angebotenen Preisen, stehts vergleichen und bei Skepsis, lieber sein lassen - Dienstleistungen besonders Kleidung. Taxifahrten nie ohne Taxometer annehmen - Metro ist um vielfaches günstiger und schneller. In gewissen Geschäften in der Shoppingmall erhält man gegen vorweisen des Passes sogar Rabatt.
