Отель отличный, удобный современный. Все предусмотрено. Расположение прекрасное. Шумоизоляция неплохая. Остановился бы в отеле снова.

Дурацкие выключатели света в номере. Какие то неудобные. И воды не поставили в номер. Обычно всегда пару бутылочек дают попить. Но это мелочи конечно

Great Location and good Value in heart of Isatanbul

8.0

We stayed at Maywood Hotel, sister hotel to Hotel Sapphire (which had been closed by the Municipality prior to our arrival). Rooms are very small but clean and comfortable. Includes a good buffet breakfast. Really good location, walkable to River, spice markets, Blue and pink mosque and The Grand Bazaar.

Small rooms, otherwise everything else OK. Would have like to stay at Hotel Sapphire (not Maywood Hotel) which came recommended.

Meets expectations for the price

We actually ended up at Maywood hotel, after hotel Sapphire sent us there due to some issues with their tourist licence.

We ended up with two single beds, worked ok for a couple of days. Internet speed quite fast.

Our room was very comfortable and clean. Bed very comfortable, nice pool. Breakfast was very good.Great position only a short walk to harbour and tram station only up the road which took you anywhere over the city. Restaurants and cafes all around,so close. Staff were so helpful and friendly. They arranged our transfer to the airport. All round 10/10. I would certainly recommend this hotel.
