Room Mate Emir Hotel

Magnificent boutique hotel with spacious and beautifully designed rooms as well as the most helpful staff. During our five night stay at Room Mate Emir Hotel, we couldn't be happier with the experience. The duplex suite was clean, well-lit, spacious with very nice amenities from bathtub, shower, to microwave and stoves. Minor imperfections include loose light switch panels. The staff were definitely a big part of our wonderful experience - they helped from translating taxi driver's demands to retrieving a lost jacket to printing and ordering. The location was very close to many shops and restaurants and allowed us to walk everywhere (even to Otakoy and Hagia Sofia). The small downside is that it is located on a narrow windy one way street so it is a bit difficult to access by car or taxi (expect 10 min delay).nnOverall, I recommend this to everyone and personally I would definitely consider returning here during my next visit in Istanbul depending on the price (we got a good discounted rate due to boxing day sale and the winter season of few tourists).

We stayed here twice during our 5 week stay in Turkey. Loved the place so much! Accommodating staff, lovely and spacious rooms! We got the duplex and it was everything we wanted. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a stay within the heart of Istanbul and walking distance to everything.

The rudest staff ever. They made a big deal about guests visiting me at the hotel. Not recommended.

Great quality and amazing staff!

Stayed here for some time ago. Beautiful hotel, very nice room, great location and friendly front desk staff.nnUnfortunately the cleaning lady stole from the room my passport (safe that I didn't lock) and part of souvenirs that we'd bought. Stolen passport caused a huge problems to get out of the country.nnIf you stay, remember to keep all your valuables you don't want to lose in that tiny safe they kindly provide.
