We found the Grand Star to be a good value the 3 nights we stayed there. Nicely renovated room & bath with a window onto a quiet street below. Nice view from breakfast room. Arriving late on two nights, we found the night staff to be exceptionally helpful. A call to the front desk got our air conditioning switched on... More

First the positive: the location is very good, the breakfast was abundant and had Ok food. Now the issues: the rooms smelled bad (a mix of humidity and bad ventilation), the service was terrible (they told us they could not change our room b/c they were full, the next day (with a different shift in the reception) I asked about...

The good: nice room, nice bathroom, and awesome view from the breakfast area. The bad: staff is not very helpful, paper thin walls ( I was able to her the guy in the next room snoring), bad breakfast, they padlock the emergency exit every nigh and horrible wifi conection. Stay somewhere else.

This is a passable hotel with newly renovated rooms. Small but clean room with decent amenities. The hotel lobby was cramped and the elevator in our wing was ancient. The hotel staff delivered average service but not exceptional. The breakfast area was modest but additional charges apply if you get a glass of freshly squeezed juice. The breakfast spread was...

It is not good idea to compare "star" rating across different countries as 4 star Hotel in Germany, Greece , Italy or Turkey usually mean different things. But calling this place a 4 star Hotel in any geographies would be a huge stretch. I have to start with very basic stuff that are simply unacceptable like breakfast without coffee (coffee... More

The crew at the hotel site .. Asattav uncooperative and is friendly and service very bad and has a restaurant and the lobby is very old but excellent rooms somewhat, but a very small inconvenience comes to you from the inside and the outside and the rooms are not soundproofed

Stayed in this hotel 7 days. The only plus is a convenient location to Taksim Square. Breakfast is monotonous and not always fresh. The staff at the reception was not always friendly. The rooms are not all good, the ones that face the street, very noisy and they can not sleep. From the bathroom really does stink .. Also, I... More

I am currently staying here and am glad to make this choice as it is 2 mins walk from Taksim Square and has the shopping area at walking distance. I took the Havatas bus from the airport and reach taksim square in an hour (thanks to all the traffic enroute) and took a 2 minute walk to this hotel. The... More

I have stayed 2 nights in the Hotel Butik Star managed by and situated in the same building as Hotel Grand Star, I guess I can write my review here. This has been the worst stay ever in a hotel, the room was noisy but clean but the service is absolutely miserable. Not helpful and not friendly at all. Way... More
