I recently had the pleasure of staying at Grand Makel Hotel and I can't say enough good things about the experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and a genuine sense of hospitality that set the tone for my entire stay. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained, with elegant decor and comfortable accommodations that made me feel right at home. My room was spotless, spacious, and well-appointed with all the amenities I could ask for. The attention to detail in the design and cleanliness was truly impressive. What really stood out, however, was the exceptional service provided by the staff. Every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. Whether it was the front desk staff, housekeeping, or the concierge, everyone was attentive, friendly, and eager to assist with any request. Their dedication to providing top-notch service truly made my stay memorable. The location of the hotel was also ideal, with easy access to local attractions and dining options. I appreciated the recommendations from the concierge, which led me to some fantastic local experiences. Overall, my stay at Grand Makel Hotel was outstanding, and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable, welcoming, and well-located place to stay. The staff's commitment to excellence made all the difference, and I look forward to returning in the future.

The turkish bath and massage was excellent. The girls and Ashish delivered their promise as we were told. The "private" tour that was scheduled for us on the 2nd day was not at all a tour. Therefore, We demanded our money back and after so many arguments with different members. we got it. The breakfast was excellent service and food. For the price the hotel is ok where we stayed. Thanks

The staff were very friendly and helpful. However, room service needs improvent with how the food is delivered. The food should be covered in order to keep it hot. Otherwise the food was prepared well. The walls are very thin i could hear guest's conversations in the next room which kept me awake until after 2 a.m. Otherwise nice property and conveniently located to where i needed to be.

Very welcoming hotel, I usually stay in Grand Makel when I come to Turkey. Staff are professionals and friendly, check in was easy with Emre, and the manager Burcu was amazing and she was making sure the guests are satisfied and happy with their stay at the hotel. I recommended this hotel if you are traveling for business or with your family

Nice staff poor room condition phone and airconditioning not working in the room, pool spa not open even in hot days it’s always under renovation apparently, area around is good coffee shop restaurant bus train 5 minutes walking it’s definitely not 5 star maybe 3-4 star but over all turkey hotels are all over rated any hotel you chose take 1-2 stars away from what the state on the website. Never trust the photos of any hotels I have stayed in many hotels in Istanbul and Antalya none of them match the photos

This property I did not like it at all. Yes it’s convenient because you have restaurants very close to the hotel. Which is convenient. But is relatively far from the main area in Istanbul. The air conditioning system was horrible, did not cool the room at all. The Wifi connection was horrible.
