I love this hotel. I care about this property. I will be honest about my advice. At breakfast, I would advise to be available until 10:30 instead of 10:00 a.m. Also, please change the juice at breakfast. It is not pleasing. One last thing; the carpet area on the 4th floor near the elevators needs some cleaning. There is a lot of staining to the area carpets.

Centrum hotel stay
The stay was good. Area is very good. Walking distance to most places. Breakfast is good. Only problem is they do not have an iron to use just to iron sone clothes. It is so cheap dont know why they dont get one. Only other issue is that they do not have a late check out option. If needing to check out later than 12 then need to pay for full day extra. Other places I have been have like a half day payment for late check outs. But all in all a good hotel. Will stay again.

We had a wonderful stay! Unfortunately, the hotel as a whole had yet to start utilizing AC but we managed to get a room where we could turn the unit on without the remote. The rooms were small. Breakfast was always great and the staff was very helpful. Located close to many attractions and lots of restaurants and services; barber, salon, laundry, pharmacy, shops and stores of all kinds. There is even a Turkish bath in hotel!

Great location great stay
The location was perfect ... within easy walking distance of the Blue Mosque, Grand Market, and many other sights. The tram is very very close as are lots of restaurants. Breakfast had a lot of options in the roof top room with nice views. We had an econo room which was small but but we didn’t find it uncomfortably so. We could have upgraded to another room when our tour started but we decided not to. The hotel and room were clean. We had plenty of hot water for showering.

Good location BUT poor service & poor rooms
I had trouble with the shuttle service they provided..coming 30 mins late..thereafter, the driver making us walk down the road to get to the hotel. Hotel itself was decent for a 2 star hotel. The location is great! Breakfast was usually the same everyday and very oily. We had construction outside of our room which gave us sleepless nights..even after complaining the hotel did not move our rooms.
Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2017
I am examining the problems you are experiencing individually 1.the driver is not late, you can not find the driver. 2.You have found the hotel breakfast as greasy and you are saying that it is a 2 star hotel, we watched you at breakfast every morning, you eat your dishes with your hands and you say you do not like it. 3.You are planning to stay in a 5 star hotel for the room price you pay. (25 euros for 2 people) you are defamating our hotel to get everything free of charge. If you can not prove these laws, our lawyer will contact you. Your comments because it does not reflect the truth 4.The hotel is in the city center if you are using dir.Internet you would not look at the position. I reckon you will re-examine your comment.

Excellent place to stay in Istanbul
We stayed 2 nights before our Turkey tour and 2 nights after the tour. Bed and room clean and comfortable. Had the best shower in all our trip. Food was excellent including all the breakfasts. Centrum allowed us to store luggage which was very helpful and the staff happily arranged the shuttle bus for us. Nothing was too much trouble.The hotel was in a very central part of the old city.

A great location for sightseeing in Istanbul
The Centrum is a good choice without spending a fortune. One of the best old Istanbul locations, easy walking to any tourist place. The hotel is very well run, the breakfast is good to excellent and the staff tries hard to be helpful. Unless you are looking for high end hotels this should be a choice.
