My stay at Elite World Istanbul Taksim had its ups and downs. The location near Taksim Square is incredibly convenient and the breakfast options were quite varied. However, I encountered some issues with room cleanliness and staff behavior that detracted from my experience. Overall, it felt more like a 3-star hotel rather than the advertised 5-star status. 😞

Rooms

The room was clean, but quite small and not as modern as I had hoped, showing signs of wear. I was disappointed with the lack of attention to cleanliness during my stay, especially with housekeeping forgetting items like towels and shampoos.

Service

Facilities

5.0

The spa facilities seemed nice, but I didn't make use of them due to other issues. The overall amenities were okay, but nothing felt luxurious as one would expect from a 5-star hotel.

The location near Taksim Square was perfect for exploring the city, and the staff, particularly Aziz and Guzel, were incredibly friendly and helpful.

Additionally, the WiFi was frustratingly slow during my stay, which is something that needs improvement.
