A very busy property, this one. With the pool, gym, sauna, well-appointed rooms, 24hr reception, bar, gift shop, free wi-fi and proper restaurant, this hotel deserves it's four stars.  The location can not be beat, two blocks from Taksim Square. Central, right amongst all the restaurants, nightlife, banks, other hotels, and cafes. Of course this means your only issue is... More

We stayed at the hotel with my wife for three nights. Our room was on the seventh floor. The room was small but had a great view of one part of the city. The noise from the traffic though was very loud, could even hear it with the windows closed. The mattress was awful. Very old, hard, and almost broken... More

Hotel is in great location just a minutes walk from the Taksim square. It is a bit outdated in design and a bit murky but eventually you get used to it and it feels ok. Rooms were not so big but functional. Breakfast is also nice with a bit variety. Probably not a match to the big luxury hotels in... More

I stayed at Golden Age 2 for three nights last week and I was plesantly surprised. The first room we were given was noisy and we asked to have it changed and then got a room with the most magnificent view of Istanbul. The second one was alo much bigger and beds were more comfortable. The hotel has perfect location,... More

We stayed here for 5 nights recently and really liked it. This is undoubtedly the best place to stay in Istanbul as is so conveniently located to Metro, Tour Buses, Airport Shuttle and above all walking distance to Taksim Square & the famous Istiklal Street. The area around is so lively and interesting that you can't be bored at all...late... More

Beside the great location near the Taksim square, all the rest are average on this hotel. Expensive and definatelly not a 4 stars hotel. Old rooms, noisy neighbourhood, below average cleaning. Breakfast was awful. Personnel speaks barely some English. More

I have visited this hotel twice now and also stayed at this hotel group's newer outpost, the Avantgarde Hotel which is SUPERB although located in a less central location. Check it out also: http://www.avantgardehotel.com For the location as an occasional tourist to Istanbul, this is an excellent place to have as a base. As in all the hotels at this... More
