The hotel location is in the heart of Taksim square. Easy walking to all the shops and Mosque. The rooms are beautiful, all new and modern. I loved the rain showerhead in the bathroom. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. Candan and all the guest services staff helped us plan our days for the best tours, shopping , and restaurants.

Would not recommend staying here. I booked a luxury room for my family with a young child. This was confirmed! Arrived late night following a long flight to be told at check in at the hotel that my booking was cancelled. The reception staff was rude making out I cancelled it- why would I cancel it myself and then turn up at midnight! I was offered a standard room for one night instead of the four nights I had originally booked! Considering the mess up no one spoke to me the following morning. Definitely not 5star service and not Sofitel standard! Lucky I didn’t stay here longer. I stayed at a much better hotel for the remaining 3 days! Would not recommend - chaotic and again ripped off over taxi arrangement to next hotel.

Not a bad hotel but the pool is filthy.

The room was clean and tidy and a decent space. Checked in and went to the roof top pool to relax after our flight only to be horrified by a dirty pool. Shocked to see this at the hotel. The staff were all friendly and the location is good.
Filthy pool. No signs to say it’s closed.
Not been cleaned for months.
I wouldn’t want to swim in this.

It was a great hotel with very good support staff. The staff was very frinedly and helpful The only improvement we suggest is on the higher level floors, there was loud music sound coming from near by hotel playing music even after fully closing the window that the hotel management need to do something
