My two-night stay at the Istanbul Marriott Hotel Sisli turned out to be one of the most bizarre experiences I've had across many countries. On day one, after using the restroom, I noticed the entire inside of the toilet bowl was covered in dried urine stains—quite disgusting. I immediately called the front desk requesting cleaning, and a staff member arrived shortly afterward. He was diligent and thoroughly cleaned the area, so I gave him 100 Turkish lira as a tip—a gesture I genuinely appreciated. The next morning, during breakfast, a hotel manager approached guests for feedback. When it was my turn, I mentioned the previous night’s hygiene issue. She listened attentively, took down my room number, and promised to look into it and possibly upgrade our accommodation. I left the hotel feeling hopeful. Around 10 PM that evening, I returned and was told we’d been moved to the highest floor. I assumed this meant a room upgrade—my excitement was real. But when we finally reached the 33rd floor, things took a strange turn: the elevator didn’t go directly there. We had to transfer to a smaller elevator via the 30th or 31st floor, then walk through a narrow corridor. Once inside the new room, I was shocked—the space was noticeably smaller than our original room. Beds were pushed closer together, and we lost the desk and sofa entirely. The bathroom had shrunk by nearly half. This wasn’t an upgrade—it felt like a prank. Disappointed, I asked to return to our original room. We had to retrace our steps through multiple elevators, which was extremely inconvenient. Later, my colleague requested tea leaves be sent up. The front desk confirmed it would come promptly—but over an hour passed with no delivery. Only after I called again did someone finally arrive. Throughout the entire stay, the two hand soap bottles on the sink remained dusty, untouched by housekeeping. Even worse, during the final two nights, I found a mysterious stain under the bed cover when I lifted the blanket—too tired to complain, I just avoided that spot. Another incident involved the lounge server: when I asked to settle my bill, she ignored me completely—no eye contact, no response—even after three attempts. I had to step outside to smoke a cigarette before returning and standing right in front of her until she finally handed over the invoice. I paid in cash. To be honest, this experience fell far short of what I expect from a five-star hotel. Service, cleanliness, and facilities were all subpar. Despite giving at least 100 TL in tips daily, I got very little in return. If you're considering a Marriott stay in Istanbul, please look elsewhere. This property offers terrible value for money.

My two-night stay at the Istanbul Marriott Hotel Sisli turned out to be one of the most bizarre experiences I've had across multiple countries. On the first day, after using the restroom, I noticed the entire toilet wall was streaked with dried urine—extremely unpleasant. I immediately called reception, and a cleaning staff member arrived shortly afterward. He was diligent and thoroughly cleaned the area, so I gave him 100 Turkish Lira as a tip. During breakfast the next morning, a hotel manager approached me for guest feedback. I mentioned my concern from the previous night, and she listened attentively, took notes, and promised to address it by upgrading our room. I returned to the front desk and confirmed we'd switch rooms that evening. Around 10 PM, I was informed we’d been moved to the highest floor. My spirits lifted—surely this meant a better room? But then came the twist: the elevator didn’t go all the way to the 33rd floor. We had to transfer at the 30th or 31st floor, walk down a short corridor, and take a small secondary elevator. When we finally reached our new room, the disappointment hit hard—smaller than our original room, bed pushed closer together, no desk or sofa, and the bathroom cut in half. This wasn’t an upgrade—it felt like a joke. We asked to return to our original room and retraced our steps through the confusing elevator system. Later, my colleague requested tea, and although they said yes right away, nothing arrived for over an hour. I had to call again before someone showed up. Throughout the entire stay, the hand soap bottles on the sink remained dusty and untouched—even after daily housekeeping visits. The hygiene standards were clearly lacking. On the final two nights, when I pulled back the bedsheet to sleep, I found a stain. Too tired to complain, I just avoided that spot. At the lounge, a female server ignored me completely when I asked to settle the bill. I had to call out three times before she even acknowledged me, and only after I returned from smoking nearby did she finally hand over the invoice. Despite giving at least 100 TL in tips daily, the service, cleanliness, and overall experience fell far short of five-star expectations. Honestly, this Marriott doesn’t come close. If you’re considering a Marriott stay in Istanbul, please look elsewhere—this location offers terrible value for money.

Stayed here twice and couldn’t be happier. The room was spacious with a great layout, and the staff went above and beyond—so friendly and helpful. On my second visit, I was upgraded to a better room and treated to a delicious complimentary dessert that actually tasted better than what you’d find at a local shop! The only minor downside is that it’s a bit of a walk from the metro station—about 8 to 10 minutes—but honestly, it’s totally manageable. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and full of charm, with plenty of cafes and local spots nearby. A short ride or a quick taxi gets you anywhere you need to go. Overall, an excellent value and a truly enjoyable stay—I’ll definitely come back.

My stay at Victory Hotel & Spa Istanbul was absolutely delightful. The breakfast was outstanding—fresh, diverse, and well-prepared. The spa facilities were relaxing and impeccably clean, and the gym and swimming pool were top-notch, with excellent maintenance throughout. Located in a prime spot, the hotel is just steps away from both the tram and metro, making it super easy to explore the city without hassle. That said, I noticed the lighting in my room and around the pool area could be improved—it felt a bit dim at times. Also, the Wi-Fi signal in the room was quite weak, which made streaming or video calls a bit frustrating. Still, these minor drawbacks didn’t take away from the overall experience. With its great location, superb amenities, and warm hospitality, this hotel offers incredible value for money. I’d happily return and recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul.

Staying at 38 Hotel was a wonderful experience from start to finish.
