My stay at Grand Esen Boutique Hotel had its ups and downs. The location was unbeatable, right in the heart of Istanbul, making it easy to explore. However, I faced issues with cleanliness, as my bed sheets and towels were not fresh. Despite the kind staff, the room felt tiny and old, which detracted from the experience.

I had a pleasant experience at Grand Esen Boutique Hotel, enjoying the excellent location. just steps away from the tram and close to key attractions. The staff were friendly and dedicated to making my stay comfortable. However, I did face a significant issue with the room arrangements during my visit, which I found quite inconvenient.

I stayed in a Standard Single Room, which was narrow for two people. and the furniture seemed a bit worn. On the bright side, I did enjoy a beautiful view of the Bosphorus from my room.

Service

The staff were generally pleasant and helpful, but there was a serious miscommunication when I was switched to a family room unexpectedly. which required me to change rooms mid-stay.

My stay at Grand Esen Boutique Hotel was a mixed experience. While the location was perfect for accessing central attractions, the room I received did not match the photos on the website, and cleanliness was an issue. The staff were friendly and helpful, which was a positive aspect.

Rooms

I found the room to be quite small and not as clean as I expected. There were hair and dust in various places, and one of the pillows had crumbs under it (not ideal!). Additionally, the sink was too small for comfortable use, and I experienced issues with the toilet lid and mini fridge.

The hotel had essential services like room service, which was convenient. However, I encountered a major issue with leaking from the ceiling, which was troubling to say the least.

The hotel had a lift and a lovely café, which added to the charm, but there were some water issues that I hope have been resolved since.
