Reviews for Hotel Venera

Review 1:The room was rather small. The hotel arranged a private taxi to our shipthat was very costly. The hotel was not heavily booked, probably due tothe turkish security warnings.

Review 2:Staff were pleasant and helpful. The rooftop restaurant was impressiveand the food was good.

Review 3:First, we got a smaller room and the carpet was kind of old. But then, they gave us a larger room and it was as if we had changed hotels!! And the staff was very friendly all the time.

Review 4:the staff was excellent. The location was very good as well. Very good breakfast

Review 5:I book extra night for early check in and late check out but the hotel refuse to allow late checkout with extra pay and the staff was hopeless and could not do any thing without his manager who was in weekend. Very bad

Review 6:with the dynamic of istanbul and its hectic style of the bazaar, being at the rooftop bar really makes me happy and relax! Highly recommend it... The rooms are adequate for my honeymoon and we are well taken care off

Review 7:Fan leaking from the ceiling...you could have shower whilst sit on the toilet, as I ended up all wet. In-room fridge minibar not working. Noisy. Dreadful food (very low quality). Spa staff extremely rude. Should be rated as a three stars hotel

Review 8:Nice view from the rooftop bar. Good location

Review 9:i already booked double bed, but hotel gives me twin bed room. and they never say sorry. view was bad. when i see through window, i can see only other hotel's window.

Review 12:near the metro and bazar clean and not old bilding نزدیک استگاه مترو بود تمیز و نوساز

Review 13:Reception could be better with explanation of overall visit ideas with open/closing time as wrong info was provided to us... They also refused to give us a city map when they had given this to other guests...

Review 14:Ideally situated with easy access to the transport system...

Review 15:Tried 2 rooms,first one was extremely small (unbelievable!). Second room was good enough. Breakfast variety was a bit poor (and yes,the turtle thing is disgusting!). Uphill walk in the direction back to the hotel (from the metro) and to the tram a bit exhausting for old adults.

Review 16:Very clean hotel,great staff, helpful,informative. Good location (not excellent but good). Access to tram and metro acceptable walking distance about 5 mins and 15 mins (but the street is inclined).

Review 17:double room in the website photo seems larger than they are

Review 45:Nothing to mention.

Review 46:Nothing special.

Review 47:Everything was just perfect for us

Review 48:Water has strong chlorine smell, but this is evidently what you can get in the region. I would appreciate if there was trash bin in the room and shower gel (not only shampoo) in the bathroom

Review 49:Very good location, good breakfast - choice also for those who do not eat meat, helpful staff

Review 50:Nothing to say.

Review 51:The hotel is near the tram and in a walking distance to grand bazaar, Ayia Sofia and the other attractions near them. It was very clean and our room was amazing (6th floor) with a nice view. The staff was polite and helpful especially Kadir at the reception who did everything to make our stay memorable!!

Review 52:- A/C adjusted at temp.24 So hot room - staff needs to be cute and smiley face -

Review 53:Good area& location needs improvement for staff experience . More cleane rooms . Needs friendly staff and cute. More varieties of breakfast meal Regards

Review 54:During a week we have stayed in this hotel, the room service never cleaned our bathroom. Also the room was dirty. The room was too small, we even have no place to walk through the room to open the window, so we went through our bed. LCD TV? The screen was smaller than our laptop's screen.

Review 55:Very good location. Easy to visit Blue mosque and other historical places.

Review 56:Hotel is walking distance from Istanbul popular spots ( Kapali Carsi is only one tram station away) and we got a nice map at the reception. Hotel staff was very nice, thanks Selim. Food was excellent with lots of options for vegetarians. There were three of us and the room was big and impeccably clean, other facilities were nice as well including the bar terrace –great view. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to check SPA.

Review 57:WiFi did not work and being ripped-off by hotel taxi. The hotel is near to a sewage since I could smell it in the air from time to time in the restaurant/bar on the 9th floor.

Review 58:Nothing

Review 59:It's not 4 star it should be 3 star the furniture poor and the AC not cool and buffet breakfast not for 4 star restaurant

Review 60:The location very good in the hart of Istanbul

Review 61:The fact that we paid for a triple room and got a double room with anextra bed, the pictures on booking.com are deceiving. The staff did saywe where in an double room but there only was 1 triple room and this onewas already booked. We did not get a refund. Also there is a lot ofnoise of the street. The beds are very hard. Cleaning every day duringour stay was minimum (only new towels).

Review 62:The breakfast is excellent, the rooms are very clean. Good location.

Review 63:For a Turkish hotel in Istanbul, hotel Venera has a too strong Russian/Soviet influence - Lenin's portrait on the wall in the lobby and more Russian TV channels than in any other language (even Turkish). Genuine coffee and not Nescafe at breakfast would be mostly welcome.

Review 64:The Venera hotel staff and facilities were excellent. The view of the sea/city from the terrace is great. WiFi of very good quality. The placement of the hotel in the Laleli neighborhood is giving a good opportunity to explore as pedestrian the old part of the city (SultanAhmet) in your (remaining) free time. Tramway stop is close by. I recommend the hotel to any interested person visiting Istanbul. Also I recommend a pedestrian walk from hotel Venera to Taksim area via GrandBazar and Galata Bridge. A better English speaking people at all time at the front desk would be appreciated.

Review 65:The hotel is located in the center of whoulsale market. Price for saunafacility is 30usd per person, the facility is pretty small.

Review 66:Staff was friendly and very helpful! Breakfast is very good, with a bigchoice of food and hotel restaurant has also tasty meals. A view fromthe restaurant is very nice!

Review 67:Our room was smelling terrible because of old carpets. Due to carpets there was dusty air in the room. Makes us to have block nose. It was hard to breath properly. I suggest them to change by new one or use parquet which is more hygienic.

Review 68:It has perfect location. Warm staff and many facilities.

Review 69:Rooms is small size, no enough space, WC is small, no chairs in room

Review 70:Hotel is very clean and location is perfect.The staff are very friendly and alway ready to help.
