I was very happy with the decision to stay at the Casa Wagner in Brasov. The location on the main old town square is ideal and it's short walk to all of the main sites in the city center. The rooms have some great character, being decorated in a traditional style; they were very clean and well appointed. Also, the staff was extremely helpful--they were […] great with restaurant recommendations, arranging tours and calling taxis. Highly recommended. Read more

I enjoyed Istanbul, but I was disappointed with the services of the hotel. The room was not cleaned properly. I requested for a late check out, but they refused to grant me any although the hotel was almost empty. I requested airport shuttle, but the price was more than double a normal taxi.....etc

This hotel was very disappointing. It was booked as a 5 star hotel with breakfast. At breakfast (which is poor) they have an additional charge of Euro 2 for an omlet (5 star ehhh). When we asked for a restaurant, the concierge walked us three doors down and they were very insistent for us to eat there - (not sure if they get a commisison for this) At […] the hotel reception, a big sign no outside food for drink in the room - very low class - so what if i want to bring a bottle of water or coke or a candy bar from outside - I found this rude. It is definately not a 5 star hotel, and I was disappointed as I travel a lot (over 100,000 miles a year with the airline and stay in hotels all the time) and this was a getaway for my birthday that was disappoiinting. The hotel adverstises near Grand Bazaar but it is a taxi ride away and not that close compared to other normal five star hotels Read more

Elegant. Also included a wonderful breakfast buffet. Our room had a jucuzzi plus a full shower. It is near the major historic sites, which we walked to. Very reasonable price, maybe because the exchange rate to the US dollar was so good.

The room was simply great. Very spacious, clean and the beds are comfortable (don't forget to choose your favourite pillow. The Jacuzzi is big and functional. The toilets have a geberit system that is very convenient, you'll quickly get used to it. I've been impressed by the overall quality of the hotel. I also got dinner once there and the fish is […] very good. The service is also good. The breakfast is not good, it may be a good idea to take a light breakfast and try some very good restaurants in Istanbul. Also the location was great for me, animated, not too much touristic, and 200m away from a tramway station (that is OK with a 4 yrs kid) . There are also some good cheap restaurants around.

I booked this as a treat for a two day break in a work schedule, and it was great price for a 5* hotel. The hotel is in a great location, old city next to the Grand Bazaar and of course like many old cities a little dark at night which might make some people nervous. But Istanbul is very safe and not to worry is my advice to anyone. But the hotel is […] very old and not the 5* modern hotel you imagine these days, it has some of the most rude staff I have ever meet in Turkey and in a country where service is great was a shock. Please do not base the country on this hotel as its just their training that was bad. Room was big and the memory mattress and pillow great, but you have to rent the plug for $10 for the bath if you want to use the the advertised hot tub, jacuzzi large tub. It was not what I was looking for, but as it was a "secret" hotel and name not known until booked I could not check it out first. Read more

The hotel was fantastic. The staff was attentive and the hotel was immaculate. The pool/sauna area was the best part of the hotel.

I strongly recommend that you do NOT stay at the Celal Aga Konagi Hotel - the staff were extremely unhelpful. The reception staff upon check-in did not even provide us with a simple greeting of 'Good Afternoon' let alone a summary of the hotel facilities or meal timings. It appeared that most staff members were unable to speak English - when it suited […] them, so to ask simple questions turned in to a complete chore. Although the hotel rooms were of excellent standard and were very well presented and of good size, I feel this was insignificant as compared to the treatment endured by the appalling rude staff. Breakfast was quite average, and again the breakfast staff appeared to 'forget' their English (the hotel literature was written in Turkey and English, so I fail to see why they were unable to communicate accordingly). Therefore, in order for you to fully enjoy your experience in Istanbul, I would suggest that you completely avoid this hotel. Read more

Hotel äusserlich gut ABER: Service ignoriert völlig die Gäste und lässt sich bei Privatgesprächen nicht stören.Gepäckträger wartet bis Gast Gepäckstücke an die Rezeption gewuchtet hat und nimmt dann kleinstes Gepäckstück geht voran verlangt anschließend intensiv einen Tip. Das Bad war teilweise verschimmelt, stank übel nach Abfluss. Die Wannenstöpsel […] fehlen-sind optional buchbar ! Die Armaturen sind teilweise schwarz verschimmelt. Bettwäsche vom vorherigen Gast verschmutzt. Man sollte Badetücher benutzen zum schlafen. Klimaanlage brummte laut, schlafen nur mit Ohrenstopfen, Der Kaffe miserabel,.- Maschine unsauber Leere Schalen, Brot ...wird nicht aufgefüllt, Bettler setzen sich auf Terasse an Tische der Gäste und fingern im Essen rum, Service ignoriert dies, Fernseher auf beiden Zimmern defekt , der Pool stark verschmutzt, der Haman, wurde dreifach berechnet, - Sonderangebot 15 Euro- abgerechnet 75 Euro , Hotelgänge dunkel, Aschenbecher auf den Etagen seit wochen nicht gereinigt.Team mit großer Sprühanlage läuft auf den Etagen herum und versprüht Pestizide in Ecken und Winkel !!! Orangensaft kostet extra, Der kranke Papagei im Frühstücksbereich bekommt kein frisches Wasser- ist sehr krank ! Steht den ganzen restlichen Tag im Dunkeln ... was soll man da sagen - eine traurige Vorstellung. Angeblich interessiert sich Chef nur für seinen Prosche vor Hotel, ist für Reklamationen nicht ansprechbar,feuert sofort seine Leute bei kleinen Rückfragen. Read more

Hotellet er fint, men de er ikke specielt servicemindede i receptionen. Jeg bliver personligt irriteret når et hotel mener de skal blande sig i om jeg har en flaske vand på mit værelse. Alt i altt pænt og nydeligt og et kursus til de ansatte ville gøre mirakler.

Eine wunderbare, etwas hektische Stadt - das Hotel an poerfekter Lage, unfreundliche Concierge - noch nicht alt und doch schon vieles am verlotteren - schade, ich kann dieses Hotel niemandem empfehlen.

The hotel looks nice and a very good location but is extremely bad maintained. A lot of utilities does not work for example I did not had air conditioning for two days. The pool program on the roof is too short only until 19:00, the staff is not helpfull and quite unpolite. The breakfast is also very bad and the restaurant looks more like a cantine […] than a 5 stars hotel restaurant. Read more

Personalet er venligt, men med meget dårlig engelsk kundskaber, selv de simpleste ting var en udfordring. Servicen på hotellet når man fx bestilte en kaffe var dårlig. Vi ventede ved den indendørs pool i 30-45 min på en kop kaffe Morgen buffen lever ikke op til standard. Der er ikke frisk juice, men noget der minder om meget tynd saftevand.

I utgangspunktet flotte rom, god beliggenhet, men mye fungerte ikke.Vannet forsvant, måte flere ganger ha hjelp for å få badesystemet til å virke. En av resepsjonsmedarbeiderene var utrolig sur. Grei frkost og meget hyggelig frokostpersonale.

Fin beliggenhet, bra basseng. Dårlig AC gjør at det blir varmt på rommet hvis det er varmt ute.

morgenmad ikke i top og på et af to værelser fungerede aircondition ikke og da vi efter tre-fire dage fik tilbudt et andet værelse fungerede det heller ikke optimalt på det nye værelse. Herudover var vi meget tilfredse og kunne sagtens finde på at bo der igen og anbefale det til andre.

Net hotel, grote kamers. Airco deed het niet. Late check out kostte 100 euro voor 4 uurtjes. Zou er weer verblijven. Ontbijt is goed, alleen geen verse koffie en voor verse jus d'orange moet 7 TL worden betaald.

L'Hôtel était indiqué come un 5 étoiles. C'est une contre vérité. Il est assez obscur, le service n'est pas au niveau, le petit déjeuner est proche de celui d'une gare. Bref décevant.

Really nice hotel with excellent SPA facilities. If you're looking for that special place so spend a nice romantic weekend, then this is the place. fireplace next top the bed, jacuzzi designed for 2 persons all a very spacious room.

Bei unserer Ankunft war die Reservierung nicht bekannt. Erst nach einem 15-minütigem checken im Office hat sich unsere Reservierung (Zimmer war ja schon zur Gänze bezahlt) doch gefunden. Zimmer war in Ordnung, leider ließ sich die Balkontür nicht richtig schließen, was angesichts des Straßenlärms doch unangenehm war. Der Pool am Dach war Ende Oktober […] schon ausgelassen, muss aber im Sommer ein tolles Erlebnis sein, nach dem Besichtigen auf dem Dach mit toller Aussicht zu entspannen! Frühstücksbuffet war einfach aber in Ordnung, ärgerlich war die Aufzahlung von EUR 2.- für frisch gepressten Orangesaft oder ein frisch gemachtes Omelette! Hallenbad liegt im Keller ohne Fenster, haben wir nur einmal kurz angeschaut, nicht wirklich einladend. Die Lage ist sehr zentral, sowohl zur Hagia Sofia/Blaue Moschee als auch zur Galatbrücke nach Beyoglu kommt man gut zu Fuß. Read more

L'albergo è moderno anche se di un'architettura esterna abbastanza tradizionale. E' grande e bene attrezzato. Ha una zona zona "benessere" con piscina, sauna, sala strumenti ginnici, ecc. Attorno alla piscina bisogna fare attenzione a non scivolare sulle zone bagnate, soprattutto calzando le sconsigliabili ciabiattine messe a disposizione dall'albergo. Ha […] un ampio garage interno In camera è disponibile internet hi-fi e un grande televisore a schermo piatto. La spaziosità è normale. La facciata principale su cui affaccia la maggior parte delle camere è su una strada trafficata, ma in pratica il rumore non dà serio fastidio, grazie sia alle finestre con i doppi vetri che alla dimunzione notturna del traffico. Attenzione: i rubinetti dell'acqua calda e fredda recano le relative indicazioni "C" (cold = fredda) e "H" (hot = calda) invertiti e il rubinetto dell'acqua calda ruota in senso opposto a quello abituale. La sala per la colazione è confortevole; l'offerta di cibi e bevande è ampia ma a noi è apparsa un po' carente riguardo a brioches, dolci e frutta. Il peresonale è sufficientemente gentile e disponibile. Read more

Das Hotel bemüht sich mit allem möglichen Schnickschnack (Jacuzzi Badewanne im Zimmer) top zu sein, ist es aber nicht. Den Stöpsel für die Jacuzzi Badewanne muss man für 10 $ kaufen und kann ansonsten gar nicht baden. Personal insbes. Rezeption ist extrem unfreundlich.

Das Celal Aga Konagi ist ein wunderschönes und gediegenes Hotel. Alles ist sehr sauber, das Personal sehr sehr freundlich und bemüht. Nur das Frühstücksbuffet war eine totale Katastrophe. Es wurde nichts augefüllt, alle Brotkörbe leer, O-Saft immer leer, Kaffee aus dem Automaten nicht geniessbar.

Een prima hotel op 20 minuten wandelen van de meeste bezienswaardigheden.

Decir que nosotros quedamos satisfechos del hotel principalmente por su relación calidad-precio, nos costó poco más de lo que cuesta una cena normalita en España en habitación Deluxe (no me permiten poner precios). De haber pagado más dinero la reseña no habría sido igual de satisfactoria. Habitación: decir que era enorme, materiales de calidad (marmol, […] etc), una chimenea artificial muy bonita y acogedora, 2 camas de matrimonio, una mesa con 3 butacas alrededor, un escritorio, pantalla TFT, WC electrónico y un jacuzzi enorme Como puntos negativos añadir que algunos de los mandos de la bañera estaban rotos, que además no nos pusieron tapón (y cuando se lo pedimos a la gobernanta nos dijo que teníamos que hablar con recepción, cosa que no hicimos porque nos daba igual usarla que no) y la señal de la TV era bastante mala. Limpieza: bastante regular. El cristal que unía la habitación con el baño estaba asqueroso, numerosas bolas de polvo y hasta un bastoncillo de las orejas de unos inquilinos anteriores tirado en el suelo. Además un olor bastante profundo a desagüe al entrar en la habitación, aunque esto es bastante típico en hoteles de Oriente Medio. Instalaciones: geniales, el SPA es totalmente gratuito, con piscina, duchas de varios tipos, cañón de hielo, baño turco, sauna, etc, lo mismo que el gimnasio. Aunque he de decir que muchos de los chorros y jacuzzi de la piscina no funcionaban. Además con un horario amplio, de 10 a 10, de modo que al regresar a la tarde al hotel era ideal bajarse al Spa. En la azotea cuenta con otra piscina y terraza, si bien en enero estaba cerrada, pero en verano debe ser una gozada. Desayuno: estaba incluido en el precio. No está mal, pero nada del otro mundo. Destacar la variedad de mermeladas diferentes y las tortillas de distintos ingredientes al momento. El zumo era de polvos y si querías natural te lo cobraban aparte, bastante caro para el país que es, por cierto. Para los que no tomamos café, había chocolate caliente, punto a Read more
