Hotels near Rahmi Koc Museum, Istanbul

We stayed as 3 people in one room. The beds were very comfortable and the room was exceptionally clean. The breakfast was excellent. It's a hotel with great value for money.

Booked this hotel because it's a short walk to Chora Church and Tekfur Palace, and indeed, both were easily accessible on foot. My room was on the first floor facing the street. While the windows were of good quality, the noise from pedestrians and traffic didn't quiet down until late into the night. The service was excellent; even though there was no elevator to my floor, my luggage was still carried for me. The breakfast quality was also satisfying. You can take the tram from the road facing the river by purchasing tickets from the self-service machine.

The location was perfect, the staff were very polite, the price was great, the room was spacious, and it was within walking distance of everything.

Location is very near Taksim Square and also to both Istanbul Airport and Sabiha Airport bus stop. 5 to 10 min relaxing walk. No need to worry how to get to the airport. The accomodation itself, big room and bathroom with kitchenette. No stove but given fidge and microwave oven. Full kitchen is available on the ground floor for free use 24/7. Abdullah is a great host. Recommended if anyone wants conveniences. You get what you pay.

The hotel is in a dilapidated, sketchy neighbourhood. As a female solo traveller, it feels very scary to travel alone back to the hotel at night, as you will come across groups of men hanging along the street. It’s also ridiculously far from major train stations (15-20 minutes depending on your walking speed) and a lot of uphill climbing, which is a big minus for people who would stay more than 3 nights with more luggage / elderly. My local friend said with this price I could’ve booked a hotel at a more convenient location. The room is clean and has a functional layout. The sound insulation is poor, the first two nights I could hear the neighbour laughing, they were loud but still I had to wear earplugs to sleep. Also traffic noise continued even during late night. The hot water in shower is not very consistent, I had two days of perfectly hot water, and two days of lukewarm water. I was shivering when I went out of the shower. The water tap of the sink is very hard to switch on/off. The sink is big but not much space for putting necessities, which is a bit of an impractical design. As I was travelling alone, they only gave me one room card, which could be inconvenient in some way because if I would like to use the fridge in the room, it would turn off after I left the room. Even though I didn’t use the fridge, it is something to be noticed. I had experience staying in other hotels alone, they always give two cards. While it’s more energy saving this way, it’s inconvenient. The breakfast was alright, just like all other 3/4-star hotel breakfast, there is a variety of food. Staff checked the buffet area quite frequently, and the dining area is comfortable with a lot of light. It also has Turkish tea, which is great. One key event: the door lock was not functioning. After I left the room the second day, I checked if the door is being locked but it didn’t. I was terrified to know that the door lock wasn’t functioning, as I could go inside without a card. I immediately asked the front desk to fix it, and turned out the door lock was just out of battery. However, if I didn’t check the door, my room could’ve been easily broken in. Another thing is after this, I couldn’t find my earrings which were on the table. The coincidence made me think it was a stealing event. While eventually they found them after I checked out and they returned them to me, I could not help but felt frustrated in the meantime as my trust for the hotel was damaged. Despite that might have been just a misunderstanding, the hotel staff, especially Dilan, was very helpful and proactive in handling the event, and she also promised to compensate me, even though they saw no other people entering my room in the surveillance camera and she claimed that no stealing event has happened. Overall, despite all that has happened, I think the hotel is good and quite affordable for a short stay, but there might as well be other better options. l

Overall, it's pretty good. The location is excellent, right by Taksim Square, making it super convenient for getting around, and there are tons of food options nearby. Plus, they offer free luggage storage, which is a nice perk. The only thing is I couldn't get the AC to work in the room, and I'm not sure why.

It’s ok for those who is only thinking about sleep at night but nothing else.They moved us from our first existing room to the other small room for an excuse that they will do some work on the room but the very next day or the immediate day we don’t even know there is another guest apparently came.we paid for bigger room but end up in a small bedroom which was not fair.Power plug has no electricity, walls are cracked all the amenity is way too old I feel like I am living in a musium.However I got what I paid for and that’s how I can convince myself.Thank you Turkey and will see u next time.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-kept. The staff were friendly and helpful, always willing to assist. Breakfast was good, with a nice variety to start the day. The location was convenient for exploring the area. It’s not a luxury hotel, but it’s cozy, welcoming, and a reliable choice for a relaxing stay.. I do recommend it

We had a lovely staycation as a couple at Meroddi Beyoğlu Residence, staying in a studio with a balcony, and overall it was a very comfortable and relaxing experience. The room was modern, clean, and well-maintained, with a cozy layout that felt more like a serviced apartment than a typical hotel room. The balcony was a great bonus for enjoying some fresh air and coffee together. The kitchenette was fully equipped, which made the stay even more convenient for a short getaway. Staff were friendly and helpful, check-in was smooth, and the shuttle service to central areas like Taksim was very useful. While the surrounding area is quieter than central Beyoğlu, it suited us well for a peaceful staycation. We would definitely recommend this property for couples looking for comfort, privacy, and good value.

The hotel's location is excellent, and it's very clean and comfortable. I stayed for three days and didn't find any flaws. I saw some negative reviews, but that wasn't my experience at all. The towels and linens were clean, and room cleaning was done upon request. You leave your key at the front desk, and your room will be cleaned when you arrive. Many thanks to Hotel La Serena. I highly recommend this hotel to all Chinese citizens.
