Michael
The location of this hotel is perfect for exploring the city, with transportation options like the bus stop and metro station just a short walk away. The staff here were very supportive and provided us with helpful information about local attractions and transportation. We also appreciated that toiletries were regularly replenished and that the rooms and toilets were kept clean.
While there were a few minor inconveniences during our stay, overall, this hotel provided a satisfactory experience.

The rooms at Safir Hotel were absolutely cozy and inviting. I loved the fact that each room came with a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and a minibar. The private bathroom was clean and well-equipped with a hairdryer and free toiletries. As a light sleeper, I appreciated the quietness and the comfortable air conditioning in the single room. In the double room, I enjoyed the additional seating area, perfect for relaxing after a long day of exploring.
Personally, I found the mini-bar in each room to be unnecessary.

Safir Hotel in Istanbul offered great value for our money and the room was comfortable and clean. The hotel's location was perfect, with easy access to transportation and nearby Indian and Arabic restaurants. The staff, especially Mr. Ali Hardan, were extremely friendly and helpful, providing us with directions and assistance whenever we needed it.
As for breakfast, it would be better if there were more seating options available in the small breakfast area.

I have just returned from a wonderful stay in this small hotel, big size and luxurious rooms. The location of the property is marvellous, really close to the Garden and the bus station, safe location and quiet neighborhood and tourist attraction and the opposite bus stop. European Side district is worth looking into...

Great location - next door to Burmali Mescit Camii. Also located walking distance to a subway station. The staff are welcoming and the room is luxurious and reasonably spacious.
No restaurant at all.

The rooms are reasonably spacious with beautiful views. The bathroom looks excellent. The location of the hotel in Istanbul is great and good, close to the bus station, safe location and quiet neighborhood, and the most historical monuments. All in all they offer good service.
Nothing to mention!

My friends and I enjoyed our nights out while staying at a conveniently located hotel near a mosque and public transportation. The room we stayed in had great water pressure in the shower and comfortable beds. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially the night receptionist who spoke Arabic. We also appreciated the available Wi-Fi and TV.
The breakfast area felt cramped with too many people.

During my Christmas stay, I appreciated the friendly staff who provided outstanding service, as well as the complimentary breakfast buffet that we enjoyed every morning. The hotel's prime location allowed us to explore the city conveniently and within a reasonable distance. Lastly, their fitness center was well-equipped, and it was a great privilege to have access to it.
I was quite unhappy with the outdated interior decor and furniture, which could use some updating. the lack of soundproofing between the rooms made it difficult to get a good night's sleep, especially during the holiday season when the hotel was bustling with people.

I recently stayed at Safir Hotel and had a wonderful experience. The location of the hotel was perfect as it was in the city center, with easy access to public transportation like the metro and bus station, both within a short walking distance. The staff, particularly Mr. Barish, were incredibly supportive and accommodating. They allowed us to check in early and even arranged for a cleaner as per our requests. Mr. Barish also provided us with valuable information about nearby attractions and transportation options. The rooms and toilets were clean, and the hotel provided all necessary toiletries. a great value for the price offered.
Nothing, all excellent. 👍

We had a pleasant stay at this hotel where the staff was friendly and helpful. The Wi-Fi worked well, the air conditioning was always in good condition, and the shower had excellent water pressure. Additionally, we loved the proximity to the local mosque and the Wednesday weekly bazaar held nearby.
Nothing that we didn't like.
