Recommend first-time visitors to choose it. The location is excellent particularly for 1st-time visitors. T1 tram outside hotel goes to most of the best attractions. The breakfast is very good comparing with a 5-star hotel we stayed in Ankara . I must highly speak of Murat at the reception who is extremely professional and gave us a home-feeling by offering coffee/tea the moment we entered plus a brief introduction of local attractions. Our special thanks are given to him for a pre-booked taxi transfer from SAW airport to IST Airport as our plane was delayed. He supervised the transfer soon after we landed until we safely reached IST airport via email. We got on next plane in time. We had a dinner at the hotel restaurant and food are fabulous . We were told that hotel guests would receive a 20% discount for dinner, but they did not honour their promise. As their food are not expensive, we did not argue.
I would like to express my heartfelt thanks for the warm hospitality and excellent service during my recent stay with you in Istanbul. From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely welcomed by your kind and professional staff. The room was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and beautifully arranged — everything I could have hoped for. It truly made my stay special and memorable. Thank you once again for making me feel at home. I will gladly recommend Faros Hotel to friends and family, and I definitely look forward to staying with you again in the future. Dear Faros Hotel Team, Thank you so much for the warm hospitality during my stay in Istanbul. The room was clean, stylish, and very comfortable — truly a perfect place to relax. I also really enjoyed the beautiful restaurant at the hotel; the food was delicious and the atmosphere was lovely. Your team was always kind and helpful, which made me feel right at home. I look forward to staying at Faros Hotel again in the future and will happily recommend it to others.
I want to share my experience so no other person makes this mistake. The hotel experience was great the tall guy at reception was exeptional and breakfast was stunning but I must write about this. This hotel is in wrong place this “turist” zone is nothing more but a scam zone on every corner people tried to scam us and it was even in licensed shops… Don’t buy anything with cash they will allways try to steal from you especially barbers with post (10€ haircut/foot massage) We wanted to get haircut for 10€ and in the end we were held hostage and paid 200€ and don’t worry nobody will help you in this situation you have no rights there and the city is just big instagram scam not romantic a lil bit it’s dirty and fillwd with bad people also don’t go on tram T1 scamers are waiting on every station. thank you never coming back.
