My stay at the hotel in Istanbul was a mixed experience. The location was very convenient for sightseeing, with the Metro right in front of the hotel, but the surrounding area felt unsafe due to the presence of thugs. The service was outstanding, with the staff going above and beyond to solve a complicated issue. However, the dining options were limited, and the rooms, although okay, lacked certain amenities like a tea maker that was missing despite being advertised.

My stay at the Grand Emin Hotel in Istanbul was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were clean and recently repaired, but I felt uneasy about walking around at night. The amenities included a functional bar fridge, air conditioning, and a kettle for hot beverages, although the selection was limited.

The hotel room was big enough to fit us, but having only 1 bathroom was quite inconvenient, especially when my kids needed to use it while I was in the shower. The room had three beds, which was great compared to other hotels that usually offer only two beds and a temporary cot. The view from the room overlooked the main road, but the downside was the noise from traffic. Despite booking a double room, the space was adequate.

I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. While the rooms were small, they offered a panoramic view of the Marmara Sea, which is typical in Istanbul. They were sufficient for an outgoing traveler like myself. The service was friendly, although noisy due to the presence of Libyan guests. The location was convenient with easy access to the tube network and Asia via Marmaray, but it felt far from the center. The dining options were generally good, though limited, and the facilities were adequate.
