Brilliant hotel in a great location

We went to Istanbul for five days and stayed at the WAW Hotel. Upon check in our room was upgraded which was massively appreciated. The room was exceptionally spacious with a little kitchen sink, kettle, fridge and microwave. The bathroom had a nice walk in shower and the water pressure, which I find when holidaying can be poor, was very good. The hotel manager was super helpful as were all the staff. Breakfast was included in our stay which included hot foods as well as pastries and cereals. The location of the hotel was brilliant. 2 minute walk to the tram which takes you in to Sultanahmet for all the sights and grand bazaar only taking 10 minutes on the tram. From the hotel you can walk up to Takism Square and visit the shopping high street. The hotel was surrounded by restaurants serving amazing food and very reasonably priced. We would definitely stay here again.

Séjours

Nous avons passe un bon séjours. Tout ce que je reproche a cet hôtel c est le service de nettoyage de chambre qui n est pas fourni systématiquement. Et le personnel ne maîtrise pas bien la langue pour communiquer avec les touristes, et n arrivent pas a donner des conseils.
