Front desk day shift guy was very rude and smoking by the lobby door all the time. Room ceiling showed sign of water damage by the AC unit. Every night around 3 am, people start shouting and yelling. Never new who and why. Overall it was a vey frustrating experience. At least we learned to never completely trust the pictures on the website. Expedia should do a better job to check the veracity of the items they offering to users.we had to go in person to check our next hotel before booking it.

Little good words about a nice stay in a nice hote

Our stay was excellent. Clean hotel. Beautiful location despite the crowds and the small narrow streets. Staff very helpful, respectful, caring and welcoming (especially Mrs. YAĞMUR Hanum). However, I advise guests with cars to make prior arrangement (preferably with the hotel) before arriving on site to arrange parking). The breakfast is simple but very nice and adequate with a very nice view of the buffet room.

2 night stay in the Olimpic Hotel.

It was a good stay for the price. The location was very good for foot traffic. The staff was very friendly to me and allowed me to check in earlier than 2pm so I wouldn’t have to leave my luggage just chilling while I went out and about. I did the 10€ boat tour that they offered at the front desk and it was pretty legit for the price and they pick you up from the front desk. I am happy that the staff was very helpful! Even made sure I got in the correct ride to the airport. Thanks!

Stayed here for 7 nights. Staff were very friendly and on hand 24 hours to help. Good location as not far from the Cemberlitas tram station and the Blue mosque. Close to various eateries and supermarkets. Good selection for breakfast. The view can be hit and miss depending on what room you're offered. You may get a seaview but it may be restricted. All in all I would stay again. Good value for money.
