Holiday Inn Istanbul - Tuzla Bay by IHG

Colazione buona,

Un po’ decentrato

Close to the airport; clean, good rooms, nice view to the bay in the evening. Good for a stay between the flights.

Smells like cigarettes even in a non smoking room. Not much to see near. Value for money is not great.

The location

The reservation was made through Booking.com. I requested an invoice both directly and by email, but unfortunately I never received a response to my email and the invoice was not provided. This was disappointing and caused unnecessary inconvenience. The hotel is located quite far from the city center, which may not be ideal for guests who plan to explore the city frequently. I had specifically requested a non-smoking room, but unfortunately there was a noticeable smell of tobacco in the room upon arrival. This affected the overall comfort of my stay. Considering the facilities, service, and location, I believe the price-to-quality ratio could be better. While the hotel has some positive aspects, it feels somewhat overpriced for what it offers.

Overall, my stay was acceptable, but there were several aspects that could be improved. On a positive note, the rooftop restaurant offers a beautiful view and was one of the highlights of the hotel experience.
