Overall, my recent stay was average, with a few significant drawbacks that impacted my experience. The most disappointing issue was that the spa pool was unavailable during my visit due to repairs. This was a key amenity I was looking forward to, and it should have been communicated clearly upon booking or check-in. Another frustration was the small, slow lift. It only accommodated two people, which meant I often had to wait ages for it, especially during peak times. Given the size of the hotel, a more efficient lift system is definitely needed. For those who have to leave early, be aware that the breakfast service starts late. This wasn't ideal for my schedule and could be a major inconvenience for business travelers or anyone needing an early start. Finally, the location, while central, meant the room was quite noisy from the street below, which occasionally disturbed my sleep. On the positive side, the room itself was clean and the staff I encountered were generally pleasant. However, these issues kept the overall experience from being better than just mediocre. I hope the management addresses these points to improve future guest stays.

Misrepresentation I booked Miapera Hotel & Spa – Special Class for September 11–13 through Expedia. The listing (and my booking confirmation) clearly advertised a spa, indoor pool, and hot tub. These amenities were the primary reason for choosing this property above other available hotels. We specifically selected and paid the rate we did because these facilities were included, as they were an important part of the experience we expected. Upon arrival, I discovered that the spa, pool, and hot tub are closed for renovation, and the hotel never informed me in advance. This is a misrepresentation of the property, as I paid for services that were not available. We were very disappointed not to enjoy this luxury, and it dramatically changed our experience during the stay. The hotel did offer us a discounted price on a massage treatment as compensation. However, this was not an acceptable alternative — only male therapists were available, we had no interest in paying extra for another massage, and we were not looking for a massage in the first place. We chose this hotel specifically for the advertised spa, pool, and hot tub facilities, not for massage treatments.

This was a great place to stay right in the heart of the city - walkable to Taksim and all its many restaurants and shops. The spa was awesome, and the Turkish breakfast was delicious and plentiful. For the price, this was a great deal! We’d love to come back.

The stay was amazing staff was so nice and the location was so ideal..

Wonderful place to stay, very nice spacious room and staff was excellent! Close to shopping , eating and historic area. Highly recommend

Clean and tidy hotel , had good beds and pleasure to stay at . Would come again.

It’s very good the hotel but the air conditioner it’s so noisy

It was great. I just wish I could have stayed a little longer.

The hotel is a beautiful soave in a super central location. The staff is helpful and the breakfast spread was delicious. The pool was unavailable which was disappointing but other than that, this is a great stay.

Nobody speak English! Only front desk person speaks English!

I had a terrible experience at Great Fortune hotel and spa when the staff were violent, calling unsavoury characters to the hote and I was forced to move to another hotel. I came here and within 5 minutes I was checked in and given a cup of tea..really really friendly and excellent services..I will use this hotel this hotel has renewed my faith that good people exist again..Thankyou

Hotel quality was pretty bad, everything is old, even towels and bad sheets looked like they haven’t been changed in years. Description said they would provide free transportation to the airport, but of course they did not. Room had a bad smell because of the poor sewerage. Hotel breakfast didn’t have any drinks but tea, coffee or water, no juices or anything else. The food quality was average. Location was central, but that’s about only good thing.

Good location

Hotel is conveniently located, but I had some issues. I had a 5 night stay, the Bathroom light was broken on the first day. I asked multiple staff members to fix it, but nothing was done so I just had to make do without it which was very annoying. They didn't clean the room so during the stay I asked for the room to be cleaned and fresh towels to be provided but these weren't provided until 9pm the night before I left. An error in my booking resulted in me being charged an extra night and the hotel refused to refund this. Overall I was disappointed with the level of service. The bathroom was nicely decorated, however the bedroom felt old and dated. If I am back in Istanbul I will definitely be trying somewhere else, as there were cheaper options nearby which seemed at least as good.

The hotel is in a good location and the price seemed competitive. Unfortunately we were allocated a bad room at the front of the building, with no view, overlooked by apartments opposite with loud noises at all hours from the street. The room was also dirty on arrival (hair and mud on the wooden floors) and only cleaned once (we had to request it!) in our three night stay. The room was large (big enough for 2 couples), but the duplex layout meant it felt like having two separate, smaller rooms. The door to the outside balcony couldn't be locked, which felt unsafe for this central, busy area. The breakfast service was good and the kitchen staff were lovely. Staff were friendly, but could do with better organisation and more cleaners.

was said to have access to the indoor pool / jacuzzi but sadly did not have access till last 3 days of my visit p:s was there for 12 days seems to pull customers into an expectation but did not deliver as Advertised on the website. the Staff are Great and helpful , just be sure the facilities are active and running inbefore you book!
