Stay was good but needs improvement in service

The worst part is someone from front desk created Radisson reward account on my behalf, without my permission nor authorization I specifically answered NO when we checked in. As soon as we checked out this morning account was created I received an email fro Radisson to confirm creation of the account. I walked into hotel 2 nights ago very thirsty and asked for water but front desk said they will send bottles of water to our room which was never delivered to us, we were forced to drink tap water

Room was suitable. Very clean. Kind of tight. WiFi was sufficient. Outlets were sufficient. Shower was lovely. Rooms were cleaned everyday. Breakfast was a hit every day. The area is walkable. Very close to grand bazaar and transportation. I found ride share options to be very affordable. I loved this hotel. I would stay again

Staff is one of the friendliest that I have come across. They ensure that all guests are well looked after and comfortable. The hotel is situated on a hill, but its not far to walk to the main street and trams. The location for me was perfect as it had a good combination of being close to liveliness but far enough away that you dont hear any of the noise. The hotel facilities are a bit dated and could do with a bit of a revamp. The beds are not the most comfortable, but its not bad either. That being said, the staff always ensure that the hotel is neat, tidy and clean

Everything about my stay was good, except the hotel was very busy and seems primarily designed for business travelers. Although I traveled to Istanbul for business, I really wanted to enjoy my leisure time. However, the sauna and pool were closed for the rest of the day, which was quite annoying. On a positive note, the breakfast was great. If you’re requesting a sea view, make sure to choose a hotel that truly offers a real sea view without too many other properties blocking the view from your window. One more thing: the walls are not soundproof, which made it inconvenient to hear noises from other rooms.

Check out time was 12, we had two rooms, it was 15 till noon and someone was outside our rooms, told us to get out. She entered one of our rooms and told my family to leave immediately. Then the lady stood outside our other room next door, with a straight face. I had to talk to the front desk about this outrageous attitude and treatment.

We enjoyed our stay at the Radisson. We liked that it’s within walking distance to many shops, Grand Bazaar and restaurants. We will definitely stay there again if we go back. The only downside is the AC could’ve been a bit colder, I don’t think it was working properly. The amenities in the bathroom was not refilled when emptied.

Wonderful location close to many main historical sites, shops, restaurants and public transportation. The hotel itself is very clean, personnel were very kind and helpful, and the rooms full of facilities and technology. The street is not very clean by the end of the day, it is not garbage but pieces of cardboard and plastic left by some shop vendors. Humid zone should be open until 10pm (it closes at 7pm) as most turists return to the hotel around 6pm.
