Good hotel within a busy area.
The hotel is located within a busy shopping district, close to a tram stop. A metro station is also within walkable distance. Road access may be a bit complicated I think. The taxi from the airport dropped me at a busy road intersection and asked me to cross 2 roads and walk up the street on the opposite side to reach the hotel.

Amethyst hotel was quite a good experience. Firstly we were given rooms on the first floor that had no light coming from window. There was just a wall outside with wires. 3 days later fortunately with some persuasion they transferred me to another room which was much better. The breakfast was lovely but the actual Amethyst restaurant is not good at all. Overall it was comfortable with friendly helpful staff.

Great staff
A great staff. My room was dated, small, and with a very hard bed. The breakfast was average, and crowded. Food in the restaurant I found a bit pricey, and only average. I had a big problem getting taxis to drop me off given the location. The spa was modern and very clean. You can swim lengths in the pool.

The best thing that can be said for the property is that the location is good. It is walking distance to a lot of the attractions in the old city and is right by a tram stop leading to easy access to the public transportation. The area around the hotel is relatively safe and has food and shopping options even late at night. For the most part the staff was polite and did try to accomodate our needs, however they did ignore our requests for water and towels one night. The hotel itself is lacking and misleading. The pictures online are for their deluxe room and not representative of their regular rooms which are small and very old. The whole hotel smells of cigarette smoke, the walls and carpet were dirty, and the toilet was old with dirty tubs. This was the case unfortunately with all 3 rooms that we booked with this property. We stayed for 7 nights and wanted to leave after the first day, however the hotel would not reimburse us for the other nights and we were stuck there. I would not stay here again nor would I recommend anyone staying here. For the price and location there are other hotels that are better. It was a disappointing stay.

The hotel went above and beyond to ensure I was satisfied during my stay. They was a bit of an issue but in. O time the management correct it with a sense of urgency and ensure that I was comfortable and checked in with me daily during my stay. I have stayed here 4 times now doing my visits to istanbul and I come for the exceptional Customerservice and hotel quality as well as the neighborhood. Front desk staff is wonderful and so is the bell staff. The sales manager went above and beyond and exceeded all my expectations when an issued occurred. I am pleased as always and I recommend this property if you decide to visit istanbul. It’s close and walking distance from everything even the bazar and markets. There is 24 hour reception desk and also room service and free breakfast if you choose that option. There is also inside great amenities spa sauna and pool. In most of the hotels I have stayed ar in turkey this is by far one of the best in service and catering to the needs of the client. Gabriel D NYC

I love the location of the Amethyst Hotel. Everybody is very nice and helpful. The pool is amazing and has a perfect temperature. The only thing that's really bothered me is the mattress. It is like concrete. I had a really hard time sleeping.
