My stay at Hotel Centrum Istanbul had its ups and downs. On one hand, the location was fantastic, giving me easy access to historical sites and local restaurants. On the other hand, the rooms were quite small and appeared a bit outdated. The staff was generally friendly, but my experience with maintenance wasn't great, particularly with a shower that flooded during my stay.

I had a mixed experience at Hotel Centrum Istanbul. The location was fantastic, being right in the heart of the old city and near all major attractions, but the room was cramped and could have been cleaner. The breakfast was decent but offered limited choices and the bathroom left a lot to be desired. Overall, while the price was reasonable, I felt there are better hotel options available for the same investment.
Rooms

The rooms were quite small and felt outdated. The bathroom was even tinier, and cleanliness was a concern, especially with stained toilets and dust in corners. I had a decent bed, but the lack of space made it uncomfortable at times.
Service

Staff were generally friendly and helpful, assisting with early check-ins and luggage storage. However, some didn't have a strong command of English, which made communication occasionally tricky.

The hotel couldn't be more conveniently located, just a short walk from major tourist sites like the Grand Bazaar and the tram line. There's a plethora of restaurants and cafes nearby, making it perfect for exploring.

Breakfast had a good variety, but it lacked fresh fruit and the coffee wasn't the best-just instant from a machine. The rooftop terrace for breakfast was a nice touch, though.

Basic facilities were available, including daily housekeeping and Wi-Fi. However, the lack of air conditioning in common areas and the tiny shower facilities were disappointing.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at Hotel Centrum. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from major attractions like the Hagia Sophia, but the sleep quality was poor due to thin walls. While the staff were mostly friendly, I experienced the air conditioning issues and some basic amenities lacking in the room.

My stay at Hotel Centrum Istanbul had its highs and lows. The location is fantastic for exploring the heart of the city, with many attractions within walking distance. However, the room was quite small and lacked some essential amenities, which made my time there less enjoyable than I'd hoped. Nevertheless, the breakfast options were decent, and the rooftop view was a pleasant surprise.
Rooms

I found my room to be quite small, to the point where only one person could really move around at a time. Also, the absence of a kettle was inconvenient. Even though the room was clean and had a small fridge and safe, it felt quite basic. I experienced some issues like the lack of window coverings leading to too much light in the morning.
Service

The location is one of the hotel's strongest points, as it is very central, making it easy to get around to all the main attractions. Being near the Guhane T1 station was very convenient for accessing different parts of Istanbul. I loved that there were lots of restaurants and cafes nearby.
Dining
