My stay at Royal Bosphorus Hotel & Spa was quite mixed. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of Istanbul, making it easy to access major attractions. However, I faced several issues with housekeeping and the state of my room, which left me feeling frustrated by the end of my visit.

Rooms

The Standard Double Room was cozy, but definitely lacked space, making it challenging to relax. There were also problems with cleanliness and maintenance, from not having garbage cans to some plumbing issues that weren't resolved in a timely manner.

While the staff tried their best to assist guests, communication barriers made some interactions quite difficult. I struggled with cash payments and found the housekeeping service lacking, which dampened my overall experience.

Breakfast was decent, albeit repetitive. I did find it a bit frustrating that new dishes were put out later, meaning those of us eating early missed them. Still, it was satisfying overall.
