A hotel in the sky

They gave me a room at 6th floor, but didn’t liked it, didn’t liked the view. At night my boyfriend arrive and asked for a higher floor room, but they told him that for security for the earthquake, they where only giving rooms at lower floors. We insisted and at last they gave us a WONDERFUL VIEW AT THE 10TH FLOOR. I will never forget the views I had from there. The most beautiful view of the world, the most incredible magic view, all for me … well and for him :))

Unique Quality: The time I went the roof restaurant was the place for breakfast. What incredible wonderful breakfast buffet they had in that incredible panoramic place... all the Borforo for us.

If you don't take a room here, come to have a unforgetable dinner at this panoramic restaurant at the top floor.

At to down floor there is a wonderful cafe with wonderful backery with typical turkish sweet cakes.

Five Star Hotel In Taksim

Plush hotel offering fine views of the city of Istanbul. Very high quality rooms and service. Worthy of its 5 star rating.

Unique Quality: Top class rooftop resturant specialising in seafood. There is also a panorama bar on the rooftop which gives you stunning views of the city and the Bospherous. Both of these places are very pricey (£3.50 for a half litre of local beer). There is an outdoor pool with terrace and also a gym/sauna/solarium which you have to pay for.

Best hotel in Taksim

by linadia

Hello,

I need help with choosing a good hotel in Taksim. All I need is a good place near the shopping zone, reasonable prices and a safe neighborhood. I did a lot of browsing but I couldn't make up my mind. Any help from personal experiences is much appreciated.

Thank you,
Nadia
