Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was appalled by this place. After staying at over 10 hotels in the last 2 months I couldn’t believe it. The staff are so rude. I pointed out problems with the room such as holes in the floor, dirty beds and a strong smell - however, the staff were so rude to laugh and not take any responsibility. Not only this but they were talking about us in a rude and impolite manner to each other - not knowing we speak fluent Turkish and can know exactly they are saying. I reccomend everyone avoids this place

I asked for a refund and they refused. So I booked somewhere else. I thought Taksim was far so booked another hotel in Sultanahmet. The hotel didn't even refund despite us not coming to the hotel and informing them way in advance.

Good budget hotel...room was very clean and was equipped with everything you need. Lift goes up only to the 7th floor so if you are given the 8th floor rooms, you will have to lug your luggage up 1 floor. Located 5-7 minutes walk from Point Hotel stop for Havabus and Havaist. So location is great!!

Exceptional Stay

We would like to express many thanks to everyone at Faros hotel, they were extremely helpful and went above and beyond to help my mothers wheelchair needs & mobility issues. The were kind enough to arrange our transport. A very friendly and genuine hotel service. The food was also very delicious with a lot of variety and the overall cleanliness was excellent. We would definitely stay again should the need arise.

Excellent Breakfast

We stayed 2 nights. The rooms was very clean, Bed was comfortable. The staff at the front desk were helpful. The breakfast was very good with lots of choices. The only problem I had was the noise. There is a club close by that payed loud music until 4:30AM. It was impossible to sleep. The hotel is close to Taksim and will definitively recommend as long as you take ear plugs for the noise.
