Gravis Suites

Stayed at this hotel for 2 weeks we expected it to be noisy as it was Taksim, However we did not expect an open air nightclub 50 yards away. We went out for food around 9pm upon our return we noticed the air con and bathroom light turned off and the bathroom door was also closed, we went down to confront the so called manager who tried to explain there was a power cut as said this is how they were both off but when i asked how the bathroom door was closed he was stumped and knew he had been caught out he started to panic and sweating profusely he was 100% guilty and i told him i would call the police if anyone except the cleaner goes in our room.No sleep dirty room bedbugs pervy manager who tells lies and refuses to show cctv saying its not there because of power cut the law states it must have backup and kept for 28 days

Staying at Gravis Suites was a wonderful experience. Big Room and in walking distance to the major attraction. Located next to Istiklal street and Taksim in a safe and not crowded street. Ali, the receptionist, was helpful and did the extra mile fo make our stay unforgettable. Whenever I would go to Istanbul I will book this hotel again.

Hotel was very disappointing. It was a bit run down in places (broken fixtures and mirrors, cigarette burns on coach, etc.) - this was not a real issue. The fridge didn't seem to work properly, the TV didn't work, and there was no house cleaning (as advertised), also these things were not really an issue, except no fresh drinking water. The main issue was that it was far too noisy and the air conditioning did not work properly. Our first night we arrived late in the evening, close to midnight, and there was a party atmosphere around the neighbourhood (close to many nightclubs that stay open to very early in the morning), and it was loud with music, cars and people. We had hoped it would not be as loud the next night, unfortunately the position of the hotel, next to busy road and lack of soundproofing, and windows facing the road, meant that it was again extremely loud with traffic, people on the street etc. We did not stay for night 3 or 4, and moved to another hotel. If you can sleep with noise and want a 24 hr vibe, then this hotel may work for you, if you like sleep, and need quite at some point during the night (day or anytime at all), then chose another hotel

It was a decent experience. Located very close to the popular Istiklal Street near Taxim Square, spacious room with great and prompt service. The only surprises were that the one of the two rooms was smaller and different then what was shown in the booking confirmation of hotels.com. On query we were simply told that the picture was of deluxe room whereas we had booked the ordinary room. Strange. also the hotel provides 2 small bottle of drinking water only once in beginning and no water on subsequent days

I checked out after 2h. It was really my bad experience ever in a hotel.
