I had a mixed experience during my stay at the Radisson Blu Bosphorus Hotel. The location and views were stunning, which truly enhanced my overall experience. However, I encountered issues with the cleanliness of my room and some outdated furnishings, which really didn't meet the standards I expected. The friendly staff definitely stood out, helping me feel welcome, but there were times when service could have been improved.

Rooms

5.0

I stayed in a junior suite with a panoramic Bosphorus view, and while the view was very nice, the room itself left much to be desired. The decor felt outdated, and there were stains on the carpets, which detracted from the luxury feel. On one occasion, I noticed the curtains had wear and tear, which was disappointing for the price I paid.

Service

7.0

I found the staff to be exceptionally friendly and helpful, especially the reception team. However, I did encounter a few hiccups with requests not being met as promptly as I would have liked. It did seem as though they were quite busy but still maintained a positive attitude throughout my stay.

Location

The hotel's location is fantastic, right by the Bosphorus and close to various restaurants and attractions. I could easily explore the local area, which added a lot of convenience to my trip. The views from the terrace overlooking the water were amazing, making it a great spot to relax after a day out.

Dining

8.0

The breakfast spread was quite good, offering a variety of options that kept me satisfied each morning. However, I felt that the variety could have been even greater to cater to diverse tastes and preferences. Some days, I noticed similar selections, which could be improved to elevate the overall dining experience.

Facilities

I appreciated the spa services available, which provided a nice respite after a day of sightseeing. However, I did notice that some areas, like common spaces and amenities, could use a bit of refreshing. Overall, the facilities served their purpose but didn't quite exceed expectations.

My stay at the Radisson Blu Bosphorus Hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The amazing views of the Bosphorus were lovely, making it hard to leave the hotel. However, the room I was given had issues with cleanliness and noise from the nearby nightlife, which made for a less than restful experience. Overall, while the location and views were fantastic, the quality of the accommodations did not meet expectations.

My recent stay at the Radisson Blu Bosphorus had its ups and downs. The stunning views of the Bosphorus were a definite highlight, but the service and room quality left much to be desired. I loved the location, close to beautiful cafes and the market, yet I faced several cleanliness issues that I didn't expect from a hotel boasting five stars.

Breakfast had a rich variety, but I found the standard to be inconsistent. On one hand, there were lovely options, yet on the other, I faced hygiene issues that made me hesitant to indulge fully.
