What guests think

At Grand Cevahir Hotel Convention Center, guests report mixed service and housekeeping, variable room comfort from spacious and modern to dated with weak air conditioning, and appreciate the free shuttle that helps with getting around.

The location feels a bit far from key attractions to some, though several mention easy driving and parking. Breakfast often earns praise, but food quality and variety are inconsistent, and multiple reviews note that no alcohol is served. Overall, expect a large conference hotel with variable service and room experiences.

It is located a little far from main attractions but the Hotel provides a free shuttle from Hotel to Taqsim Square and Grand Cehavir Mall Mon - Sat which is very convenient. Only thing I would suggest not to take a taxi provided by the hotel specially going back to the airport as they will demand an extra fare at the end and make an excuse of taking the toll express highway. I would rather call an Uber or a Bitaksi instead.

Went for breakfast just as the cleaner started cleaning our room, came back after 1 and 1/2 hours, our room door (which is by the elevator) was left wide open, we tried to contact the reception asked to speak to the manager to see how on earth this can happen, they completely ignored our concerns, everytime we ask they say the manager is looking into this and we never heard back from them. Beware, the breakfast is average and they never change the food selection we stayed for 10 days, food was the same every day. Cleaning of the room is very poor, everyday we come back and they missed something, no towels, rubbish not removed, dirty cups were left in the room for two days (even though the room was supposed to be cleaned). We were big group and had five rooms, we all had the same poor experience. Finally, the staff are rude including the driver of the shuttle bus and have no experience in customer service and no proper concierge service

Room was big, and a nice big basker of fruit awaited. Big hotel, possibility to store luggage after check-out. Non smooking floor, stinks of tabacco, clearly have issues with ventilation from other rooms or smooking floors. Vegetable soup from restaurant was at best edible. Not possible to use facilities after check-out even if you vacate the room (vary unusual per our experience in aimilar standard hotels). Not all staff is fluent in english.

Disappointing Experience - No Alcohol and Poor Housekeeping I recently stayed at this hotel and was quite disappointed. First, the hotel does not provide alcohol, which was not mentioned anywhere on their website. When I asked the reception about it, the receptionist’s response was shocking—she said, “I am not the owner of the hotel,” instead of providing any helpful information. I found this attitude unprofessional. The housekeeping was terrible. They only made the bed and did not clean the bathroom properly. To make things worse, they didn’t change the glasses daily. When I asked them to clean properly, nothing improved. Communication was also an issue, as none of the housekeeping staff spoke English, making it difficult to address my concerns. Overall, my stay was not what I expected, and I wouldn’t recommend this hotel.

1. Shower didn't drain well. Informed the front desk but they didn't want to look at it unless I was there (kind of understandable) and I wouldn't think about it until next morning. Hopefully, they fix it for the next guests, but this is not a new problem and should have been looked at before I checked in. 2. Took a long time to get hot water for shower. 3. The "hot" Breakfast was cold despite I was one of the first to enter the dinning hall at opening time. 4. Room was too hot, tried to adjust the temperature, but I didn't feel a difference; tried to keep the window open, but then had to deal with all the outside noise and it only helped a little.

Böyle bir otel için bunları söyleyeceğim hiç aklıma gelmezdi ancak yatak son derece eski ve inanılmaz derecede konforsuzdu. Ondan da kötüsü, içine ne bulunabildiyse doldurulmuş gibi pütür pütür yastıklar nedeniyle uyumak neredeyse imkânsızdı. Civarda daha düzgün ve rahat bir konaklama olur düşüncesiyle özellikle bu oteli seçmiştim. Ancak yaşadığımız deneyimden sonra ne tekrar kalırım ne de kimseye tavsiye ederim.
