    cramped room
    dim lighting
    lack of dining

    The cramped room left me with barely any space to move around, making it tough to navigate daily activities. The lighting was dim, creating an unwelcoming atmosphere, while the bathroom was too small for comfort, complicating simple tasks like brushing my teeth. There's an absence of proper dining options other than breakfast, requiring orders from outside for meals, and the massage center was overpriced for what it offered. the late checkout request was denied without reason, despite the hotel having clear availability in other bookings.

    noisy environment

    I had a great experience at the Grand Durmaz Hotel! The breakfast spread was really delightful with plenty of options. Serkan and Onur at the front desk were super helpful with local tips. Just a bit noisy outside at night, but overall, it was a comfortable stay.

    dim lighting

    I stayed in a Standard Twin Room for 6 nights and enjoyed the spacious design and cleanliness. The breakfast buffet was surprisingly delightful with ample options, and the location was conveniently close to metro and tram stations, making it easy to explore Istanbul.

    Dim lighting.

    good experience but some room for improvement

    The bellboy Tolga provided excellent service by assisting me with parking and luggage upon arrival. Onur at the reception spoke great English and offered valuable tour guidance. There was a friendly atmosphere among the staff, enhancing my overall experience during my short stay.

    The economy double room could benefit from more thorough cleaning.

    It was just a great match for strolling around in Istanbul with good value. The staff were really friendly and helpful when I asked for a sewing kit. Be sure to inquire about any specific amenities you might need during your stay.
