Maravilloso Hotel Pera

Terrible. I am so confused as to how this hotel has good reviews. I assume its because of a very nice hotel nearby with a suspiciously similar name. Unlike the listing indicates, this hotel has no reception. You need a code to go in, which I never received. Luckily another guest shared it with me and the janitor happened to be there and was nice enough to carry my suitcase up the 5 flights of stairs where my room was. The room walls were covered in greasy palm prints and other stains. There was no wifi and the TV didn't work. The dry wall was desintegrating in some spots and the white dust got on my clothes, since there's virtually no floor space and I had to have my suitcase again the wall. The toilet seat didn't stay open, so it just leaned on your back while you're using it. The door was very hard to lock and unlock. I contacted hotels.com about it and all they offered was a $20 travel credit on a future sty and didn't follow up with me by email as they promised. I tried to contact the property through hotel.com to at least get the wifi information but never received a reply. Luckily Istanbul is a great city so I just spent as mush time outside as possible, only coming to the room to shower and sleep. Do yourself a favor and do not book the terrace room! . .

Great place. It was great place and experience. Room was so clean, tidy and warm. It has a big terrace that you can feel like sitting in a cafe. Additionally their staff helped so much. Communication was perfect. Hope to stay there again.. .

. The property is very close to Istiklal St and very easy to find off of the Metro. Bahar was extremely helpful: sharing hip places to eat/drink, organizing a ride to the airport, providing luggage storage, being kind & friendly! I will certainly stay here again next time I visit Istanbul. Just a heads up -- if you have the room with a terrace, the room itself is quite small, but the outdoor space makes up for it!. .

. Hotel is at a very nice walking distance from istiklal street and taksin square. We only stayed one night and booked it due to the free airport shuttle as mentioned on the amenities. However as we reached we go to know the airport shuttle wasn’t free and was priced at 40 euros. We declined and took an alternative at a cheaper price. The entrance is kinda hard to find and we had to contact the manager as we waited outside for 5-10mins. Someone came and gave us the entrance code. Hotel room itself tiny but cant complain at the price paid. It was below minus temperature and heating in room was poor. Recommended for a short transit trip and if you want to explore a little bit of the taksim square however no airport shuttle is provided for free. . .

. Хорошее местоположение. Номер просторный. Вид из окна, стройка вблизи отеля и отсутствие нормальной уборки - большой минус. Сантехника в душевой хлипкая и требует замены. В условиях локдауна не рекомендую.. .

We felt like home. Thank you so much for your hospitality and kindness. We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was on time: our shuttle was great. Room service was really good and people working here were always nice and helpful. Personals thanks to Volkan. The location is very well centered: in the heart of Istanbul with all good restaurants and life. Thank you for changing our room and do caring. It was a beautiful trip. We felt like home.. .
