The property has a beautiful architecture, furniture and excellent location! Also, the restaurant is very nice, elegant, good food for fair price and has an amazing view! The staff are all supportive and kind! Especially the breakfast staff and very gentle Inhaim who assisted me with taxi and always works with a big smile! Unfortunately, the facilities are not very good. When I got there, my vault was broken, the air conditioner had no remote and the room was a little warm. When you open the window which couldn't be open more than 45°, the noise outside invaded the room and was not efficient enough. Also, the shower was weak, hard to fix a pleasant temperature and the stand broken. And the tv remote wasn't working and after they fix it, the sign went out and didn't come back for a couple of days. The very helpful staff sorted out a new control for the air conditioner on my 2nd night. I conclude it's a hotel with potential, but they need to be more careful with details and maintenance.

Although I rank Avicenna a s a good hotel, it is not suitable for the elderly unless they are assured of a room on the ground floor as there are no lifts.

We stayed at 4 hotels in Türkiye due to travel and Avecinna was by far the best. The breakfast’s were delicious and well presented. The front desk was helpful, kind, and accommodating. The concierge by the name of Bilal was especially helpful and extended himself far beyond what was expected. We thank Avicenna for a delightful stay.

This is now my third time at this hotel and it’s huge attraction is its situation so close to to the historical centre. As I get older I regret that it has no lift, but in all other respects it met my needs very well.

Needs improvement
We stayed one night and it happened to be a Saturday night. They did not inform us that there will be live music in the evening in the restaurant just above our room. The noise was unbearable. They finished at 12 o clock midnight and then started the cleaning process which included dragging tables and chairs and the sorting out of glasses and plates, which made an additional two hours of noise, so at 2 a.m we could successfully fall asleep. We had to check out early next morning, so the whole experience was unpleasant and stressful. The staff was polite and helpful, breakfast was good too. The bed sheet is a bit too small for two people. It got cold in the middle of the night and we found out that there was no no additional blanket. The air conditioner had no battery so we couldn’t use it either.

Tolles Hotel um zentral in Istanbul unterzukommen. Das Personal ist sehr zuvorkommend, höflich und immer hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer war sauber und für unseren dreitägigen Kurzurlaub genau richtig. Das Frühstück war lecker und alle sich in der unmittelbaren Umgebung befindenden Restaurants und Lokale waren hervorragend. Alle Leute waren immer sehr höflich und einladend zu uns. Man braucht etwa 3 Minuten zu den Moscheen und von da aus kann man mit der Straßenbahn überall hin. Diese Gegend hat selbstverständlich Touristenpreise wenn man Schoppen will also immer vergleichen und handeln nicht vergessen! In Taksim ist es ratsamer einzukaufen wenn man feste Preise bevorzugt. Dieses Hotel wird von uns wieder gebucht.

Gece 23.00 te gitmemize rağmen , oda olmadığı söylendi . Daha sonra geçiştirmelik ve görselle alakası olamayan 2 tane odamıza şükür edip geçtik . Rezervasyon onayı olduğu halde , nasıl rezervasyonumuz yok denirki . Odalar ve otel eski . Kahvaltı da öyle çok 5 yıldız olacak kahvaltı değil . Kahvaltı işte . Kimseye davet etmiyorum . İndiriminede güvenmeyin. Daha iyi oteller var bu fiyatlara . Personellerinden memnunum
