Terki Dünya Monastery

room very small , single bed , AC not working as should be

My wife and I spent several days here. I like to start out with the good stuff. The location, in old town is great. Walking distance to everything. The hotel. To start, its not a 5 star hotel in any stretch of the imagination. Maybe 3 star at best. Rooms are tiny, nothing fancy here.. No space for any of your personal items in the bathroom on the vanity in the deluxe rooms. switched to a family room (2 beds) and it had much more room.. or as much as you were going to get at this hotel. The rooms were clean. The breakfast was just OK. Nothing special, cold creamy eggs, no sausage, bacon, etc. YES the view is nice! So, in the end, set your expectations down to a 3 star hotel, with some of the smallest rooms you've ever stayed in, and you will be just fine!

Grand hotel, good facilities. Good sized restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Spa facilities were clean and quite empty so often had it to yourself. Staff were not the most pleasant. Only nice thing was the lady let me check in quite a few hours early which I was massively grateful for. Staff were quite blunt in their replies, not reciprocating my good mornings or hello, just answer my question so felt like they wanted me gone quite quickly. Room was clean and changed daily. However, the views are deceptive as compared to on their site. Window was beyond filthy. The dirt on the outside of the window gave a brown filter to the outside world. It is also located quite far from main areas like Fatih, Taksim etc so unless you have a reason to be in that location I wouldn’t advise people to book here. Also unsure if the hotel has specific ties to medical/dental centres as there were quite a lot of people with nose jobs, hair transplants and even face lifts which was not pleasant to see when having my breakfast and I am a nurse! Overall okay but would not stay here again
