The rooms are very large, clean, and comfortable and the rooftop terrace where the free breakfast is served every morning has excellent panoramic views of the city. The room decor is certainly not first rate but has all the amenities you need such as AC, TV, fridge and there is free internet in the lobby.
The aspect that puts the Hotel Niles over the top is the service. The front desk was extremely helpful and kind under all circumstances. We had stayed at their sister hotel, Dersaadet Oteli, the previous four nights and tried to extend for a fifth but they were full. The staff at Dersaadet booked us at the Niles for the fifth night and transported us there for free. Also because we ended up staying more than three nights at their hotels we became eligible for a free transfer to the airport and the staff at both hotels made it a point that we got that free transfer.
The Dersaadet is a little more expensive but is a little more elegant and in a nicer neighborhood while Niles is the better value.
I would not hesitate to stay here again if traveling to Istanbul. You can read more about out visit to Istanbul on our travel blog- http://patrinadoestheglobe.blo
