The service was excellent and staff were very friendly. However, I (and my friend in another room) left covered in bed bug bites. Additionally, my sleep mask went missing from my room (when do not disturb was on and housekeeping had clearly not come) and it was found sitting behind reception… a very odd occurrence.
I had a great stay at La Porte de la Taksim in Istanbul. The location is fantastic — just a 3-minute walk to Taksim Square, which is full of restaurants, cafés, and shops. It’s also very close to the metro and bus stops, making it super easy to get around the city.
The hotel is clean, modern, and cozy. While the rooms are on the smaller side, they’re comfortable and well-equipped. Room service is scheduled once every three days, but the staff are happy to accommodate earlier requests if needed.
A special shout-out to Selman, Mehdi, Zekeriya, and Emre at the reception — they were all incredibly helpful and welcoming throughout the stay.
Highly recommended if you’re looking for a central, convenient, and friendly place to stay in Istanbul.
The staff are so helpful and professional. The rooms are clean. Taksim square is just around the corner, 100 metres where the metro is connecting to the rest of the city.
My son and I had a great visit to Turkey and really enjoyed staying at the La Porte de Taksim. Our room was perfect. Our room opened to a small hallway. There were two seperate rooms, each with its own locked door, each with its own queen bed, bathroom & shower. It was perfect for us. There was always a person at the front desk no matter what time of the day. It is in walking distance to Taksim square, the train station, the bus station and taxis. The staff was very friendly.
Great and affordable place to stay at, staff were amazing, very helpful for hotel questions and helped us alot with outside of hotel booking information! Great location, about a minute walking from Taksim square. Only issue with it, is that the surrounding neighborhood is a bit worrying, unsafe for women who are alone, however this issue has nothing to do with the hotel as they are phenomenal!
The hotel staff were wonderful! I was traveling with my adult son so we prefer separate rooms. This hotel had the perfect layout for us with affordable separate rooms (and bathrooms) connected by a short hallway. The beds were fantastic. I got sick and spent far more time sleeping and resting in bed than usual on vacation in such a fabulous city!!
The staff were very kind and helpful. The place was nice and clean but the room was cramped. We didn’t have space to eat in the rooms. If you’re okay with tight spaces, then you’ll be fine. It was a convenient location- walking distance from Taksim Square so that was helpful.

Most hotel staffs very pleasant and always helpful. Location was not bad at all.
Hotel ist old und needs renovation specially the bathroom. Rooms too small for family with kids.
The service in the hotel was really great. Everytime you came in the staff stud up and greeted you really friendly. The AC was great but sometimes the power was out for a few seconds. The Wlan for the floor did not really reach the end of the room but it was okay. The hotel has a really great rooftop where you can enjoy your street-purchased food with a great view over the city, especially on sunset.
All in all a really solid and nice hotel.
The hotel is a warm and welcoming place, run by Emre, Salman and Mehdi. They are helpful in ensuring in all your staying needs are met. They even helped me reserved a canoeing session since I did not have a Turkish number.
The hotel is situated near the Taksim transport node so the buses and metro are just a short walking distance away.
It is also near Istikal shopping district but far enough that you can have a good night's sleep without the music from clubs or noises from people outside.
A great place to rest and recharge before tomorrow's adventure.
Our stay was quite comfortable, pretty much this hotel matches all my expectations. Hotel staff ( Mehmar, hopefully i am spelling it correctly) and other young gentleman were extremely nice and were willing to guide and help whenever it was needed. They also ordered taxis for us, which i strongly recommend to do, dont take taxi on your own because you will definitely get ripped off. Hotel is on a narrow street but there are so many options to eat or grab snacks at any time of the day. Beds are very comfortable, rooms are not huge but big enough, you can request room service, its not by default. Taksim Square, tram and metro station is literally 3 minutes walk. I will stay again on my next trip
Both Mahdi and Salman who were the staff during our stay were really nice and helpful with any request we had. Mahdi was great to talk to and always had a big smile and great recommendations for our trip only wish we had asked him earlier. The hotel was clean and cute. Water is available for 10 TL. The only negative was that internet is really bad and did not work most of the time that we were there.Better to get an e Sim and use that. The hotel is located in the middle eastern area with lots of Arabic food and a nice hookah lounge. Taksim square is a five min walk to the metro and streetcar. Rooms are small but it’s ok as we spent most time outside.

Superb staff!
Extremely friendly staff! We were extremely well taken care of, especially by Mahdi, that worked during nighttime. The other staff were also very accommodating and ensuring that our stay was good!
Rooms are okay, quite small. Good if they are only to be used for sleeping but not for a family to also have space to socialize indoors. Unfortunately there was a sewage smell coming from the bathroom, that came from the drains. The sheets were clean but I could see that the blanket, mattress and pillow under the shears Gad many stains, as did the chairs in the room. A few other things such as the cleanliness of the shower cabinet edges and corners could also improve. Cleaning is provided every 3 days but clean towels and other stuff are provided whenever needed.
Overall however the stay was pleasant. I would stay again if it was for a shorter visit and I wasn’t needing a space to socialize with family/friends. Location is top notch.
