The Seaview room had amazing views but too far from anything, it was on a residential street with no parking available and paid parking was at least 20 minute walk away. I think it was a residential building made into a hotel because it was old style, only 4 floors and elevator was small which took awhile to reach each floor. Reception was in the basement, street view of building was empty and we thought it was closed down! The room was clean and furniture was suitable for the suite room. Before arriving, we had emailed for parking and they responded that there was parking and they would assist but once we arrived he claimed no such email was sent and we had to search & find it ourselves. Poor reception& assistance for all matters! The price was too much for the location & service!
We had an amazing stay in this hotel.
At first sight you have to question whether it’s opened or not but the entrance is on the right side!
Staff was very welcoming.
We haven’t tried the food but we booked the room with jacuzzi.. what a view, with a balcony!
Moda/ Kadikoy area is definitely our favorite in Istanbul so we can only recommend!
I would never recommendthis establishment to anyone. I am surprised that expedia would have such an establishment on thier listings. My guest left the room first thing next morning. I feel cheated of the 3 days advance payment i made through Expedia. This also reflects upon my trust on Expedia listings.
The view of the room was amazing. I loved that they thought about putting a Bluetooth speaker to the room, made my music more pleasurable.
The sound proofing was not good though, you can hear other people’s sex noises which is weird but not so rare when you’re staying in a hotel.
I could stay again for that view
Definitely a budget room, especially the super water saver shower and room size. Overall though it was very clean, the bed was comfortable and the staff was nice. Location was very convenient to walk by the water and to be close to all the amazing coffee shops. Great place for those on a tighter budget. Would love to see them transition away from single use plastic shampoo/conditioner bottles!

We are happy to see you again. Your feedback is important to us.
From the road the hotel frontage looks unprepossessing and the path into the hotel is across uneven flagstones and down a steep flight of steps. However, once inside the hotel lobby is full of quirky objects arranged in a pleasing way. Reception is friendly and helpful. Our room on the third floor had superb views over The Bosphorus and a small balcony. The room was relatively spacious and the bed extremely comfortable. The bathroom was a little basic by modern standards, but had all the necessary amenities. On return from our sightseeing each day we found the room immaculately clean and tidy. The commute to the European side of the Bosphorus by ferry was pleasant - either views from the top deck or live Turkish folk music in the saloon - and this plus the value of the hotel we think justified our decision to base ourselves in Kadikoy rather than Sultanahmet.
We had a suite overlooking the water. The room was beautiful and the bed was comfortable. They allow their customers to smoke in the rooms so our room did smell like smoke. The top terrace is nice and has a large table that can be used for small parties and meetings. We loved the location. It is near a park and close to the water walkway that takes you to the city. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Melek Hotels Moda was a bit of a disappointing experience. We arrived a bit late and one of the staff members offered to park our car - which was fine in the long term, but it was a rental and seeing him drive it like a race car around the block gave
me anxiety. Additionally, we had to carry our suitcase up the stairs without even the suggestion of assistance by the staff. The bed was two beds put together and the shower had mold. Parts of the building looked like they were still under construction/remodelling. Otherwise the neighborhood is great, there is a brasserie next door that we were too late to try, but a 15-20 min walk can get you to some nice restaurants and cafes. Overall it was an average experience but I wouldnt stay here again.

Really nice, spacious and clean place. Helpful staff
We stayed at Melek Hotels because we had a conference nearby. Their City View Suite was very comfortable and spacious enough to get work done, eat well, and sleep well. The hotel is very close to the park and the seaside, and only a few minutes by cab to the Kadikoy ferryboat station. Highly recommended.

Birthday stay in Moda
It was a decent experience in a decent hotel.
My wife and I booked for a night at the hotel for my birthday. We had asked for an upgrade which we didn’t receive, which was annoying but not the be all and end all.
The standard room was spacious, especially the shower and the bed was large and comfortable. We had a view of the road outside which is in a quiet neighbourhood.
Check in was straightforward and hassle free. No foreign language channels on the TV but again, not the end of the world.
The view from the roof terrace was great and it was nice to have access to tea and coffee from there too. The terrace was a little dirty and the stairwells were dark but did give something of an independent charm to the place.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay. The location was good for relaxing or enjoying the atmosphere of Moda and we would recommend it. The price was reasonable and for a short stay it was fine.
Breakfast is not included but, to be honest, there are so many great eateries in Moda that this should not be a decision maker.
All in all it was a relaxing stay in a decent hotel.
I enjoyed my stay at Melek hotel for 8 nights. I had a suite with sea view and the room was large and comfortable. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful at all times. Room was very clean and quiet My only complaint was with limited channels available on TV. There was not any English speaking news channel available. I would definitely stay there again.
Nice little hotel in good, safe location. Friendly, kind, helpful, English speaking staff. Theaters, opera, art galleries, plenty of nice cafes, bars and restaurants are within 5 - 10 minute walk away. I recommend to all.
The room was comfortable and clean, they even moved us into an available bigger room at no extra cost, which was generous. The staff were attentive and helpful with all our questions. We REALLY enjoyed the terrace in the evenings. They provide free coffee, tea, and water, but you can bring your own wine. The view of the Prince's Islands and park is stunning and so restful.
It was very pleasant and would again come back to the same place,
its very nice,in morning i asked for the transport to go to my destination,the manager came outside the hotel to tell the taxi guy the place name as i was not able to pronounce it properly,its very nice gesture and meeting every one gave a great feeling ,all time happiness and smiling face of all staff.breakfast was cooked very quickly in 10 min though i gave a very short notice and it was very nice.
I totally loved the room that I stayed in. It was the suite room.
Large room with lots of space.
However, the location is rather secluded but close to Kadikoy.
Reception was very friendly and helpful.
Service was also good.
It was a shame that they did not provide breakfast.
Hotel in posizione tranquilla a Kadiköy, a 10 minuti dalla stazione metro di Söğütlüçeşme. Bellissima la vista sul Mar di Marmara. Consiglio le stanze con vista mare più grandi che sono al secondo terzo e quarto piano. Tv con canali internazionali, pulizie costanti se lo si desidera. Gli ambienti sono un po' datati e alcune cose in stanza necessitavano di essere riparate. Molto comodi a 2 minuti a piedi alcuni posti dove fare colazione, sia dolce che continentale. Il personale è molto gentile e disponibile.

Daha önce de kaldığımız için tercih etmiştik.Ailece gelip iki oda aldık.Ancak odadaki havlular çok eski ve kirli .402 no da Yatakta yastık kılıfında saç kılları kalmış .memnun kalmadık.
Berbat bir deneyim yasadik. Odalar tuvalet les gibi. Havlular ve nevresimler o kadar eski ve lekeliki kullanmaktan imtina ediyorsunuz. Oda temizligi yok. Odaniza su bile birakmiyorlar. Tum oda, duş, yatak kıllar ve sac icerisindeydi. Havlunuzu asacaginiz bir aski bile yok. Havasiz, basik, odalar. Les gibi toz icinde perdeler vs...

Aslı hanım iki günlük konaklamanız içinde odanız iki kere temizlendi otel ücretini ödememek için türlü türlü yollara yalanlara başvurup kabul edilmeyince ve biz polise başvurmaya karar verince bu şekilde yorum yapmanız biraz komik olmuş bize ve çalışanlarımıza ettiğiniz hakaretlerde cabası oldu yorumunuzun gerçekleri yansıtmadığının sizde bilincindesinizdir daha dürüst olmanız dileğiyle...
