The property is good, it was clean and hygiene

The room which I was given was too small it’s not worth the money I paid when compared to other hotels of same or even less price.. and with the price I paid I did not even get even breakfast

The location was close to main touristic places such as Hagia Sophia, Sultanahmed Mosque, Grand Bazaar. Also, it was very clean, and the stuff was very nice people.

The room was too small and there was not elevator.

Staff were friendly and helpful. They offer airport transfers. Good communication leading up to our stay. The room had air conditioning and lots of windows with blockout blinds. While the room is small, it has all you need for a short stay in Istanbul. Great shower head and water pressure with hot water, which was a huge bonus.

There was a lot of black mould in the shower. The fan and the air conditioner rattled loudly and the walls were thin (we could hear other peoples alarms in the morning) - but all of this was overshadowed by the very reasonable price and convenience of location.

We loved the cleanliness, the smell inside the hallway and inside the rooms was amazing! You can view Istanbul from the terrace. Friendly and talkative staff acquainted us and made our staying here as if we were at home. Although on Fridays the area is a little crowded, you can have very good meals at affordable prices at the local, family owned, small restaurants. Search for the by walking, not necessarily by looking for them online (they don't appear online...) The staff helped us with our heavy luggage

:)

I liked the cleanliness, location (far away from the main street which is busy and noisy), and value for money.

It can be fully booked during peak tourist season so I was unable to check in early due to my flight arrival time at 5am in the morning. However this was no problem as the staff allowed me to store my bags at the reception.

Location was amazing -- a minute to the metro, walking distance to the Old City and the main attractions. Neighbourhood restaurant scene was vibrant and plentiful, locals are helpful, we felt very safe, lots of amenties within walking distance. Shower was great. Very quiet considering the location. Staff was very helpful and friendly in general.

The room was cramped and the pillows were very thick and bad for the neck. We asked for new pillows and were told that's all that was available. The base sheet was too small and didn't stay in position during the night, exposing the plastic mattress cover; however when the room was cleaned, that sheet was replaced by two larger sheets which stayed in place.

Very clean and very professional and caring staff.

Location is actually really good too, except the shortest way to some of the main attractions is through a very steep upward street. A good condition is recommended!

My stay at Hotel Orkide in Istanbul was fantastic. The hotel's location is perfect, just a 5-minute walk from the tram station and in the heart of the old city, close to the Indian Bazaar and the Grand Bazaar. Iconic landmarks like Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and Topkapi Palace were all within a 10-minute walk. The room was clean, with housekeeping provided every 4 days, and the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Moreover, the staff was exceptionally kind and accommodating. Overall, I highly recommend Hotel Orkide for its convenient location, comfortable accommodations, and friendly staff.

Sometimes, the wifi was bad

-Bright white sheets, pillowcases, and towels. The rooms are spotless and dust-free. The cleaning lady deserves credit. She does an amazing job. -Coffee/tea-making possible in the room. Also, a refrigerator. -The hotel is located on a quiet side street, but just a couple minutes' walk to restaurants, shops, tram, metro and everything else you need. -Smooth check-in. The owner, who greets you on arrival, is attentive and really friendly. If you have heavy luggage, he will help you bring it up the stairs (b/c there is no elevator). He is former military so no problem! haha We had a nice conversation while I waited for the private van - which he arranged for me at a good price - to take me to the airport. -I asked for a quiet room and was given a top-floor room (4th floor) away from street noise. I would definitely come back here when I'm in Istanbul.

Not a big problem, but the bathroom (in the room I stayed...I don't know about the others) could use one of those mini electric-fan ventilators to ventilate 24/7 (moldy air from the drains appears to build up).

We recommend the Hotel, especially for family visits. They fulfilled our expectations, the ROOM was VERY CLEAN, the staff was very friendly, we had a coffee or tea maker, air conditioning that works perfectly, hair dryer, clean towels, slippers and bed linen and everything else that completed our pleasure in the hotel. The surroundings of the hotel do not seem so nice, but you can quickly get around and there is a tram, bus and metro nearby. The view from the window is on the Bosphorus, the surroundings are peaceful. Greetings to everyone from Hotel Orkide from us ❤️❤️❤️
