My stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and spacious, and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the hotel's location was convenient but had some drawbacks. Overall, a good value for money.

The hotel's rooms were clean, modern, and cozy, but lacked privacy in the bathroom due to glass partitions. The location was superb, close to tourist attractions and metro stations. The service was exceptional, with a particularly friendly and helpful staff member named Fatih. Dining offered delicious options, and the hotel facilities were convenient.

The service was excellent, especially Fatih who was very friendly, easy to talk to, and extremely helpful. The location was superb, close to tourist attractions and historical sites. The dining was well-priced with a decent variety of items available.

I had a wonderful time at the hotel. The rooms were nice and super clean, and I was greeted each morning by the lovely and smiling lady in charge. The service, especially from Mustafa and Erdan, was beyond amazing. They even surprised us with a cake for my son's 12th birthday. The location was great, near all the major tourist destinations with good connectivity to public transport. However, the area around the hotel seemed shady and dodgy, giving the place a bad reputation.

My stay at the Best Western Premier Senator Hotel Istanbul was a mix of comfort and noise. The rooms, although clean and comfy, suffered from disruptive air conditioning noise at night. The hotel offers a reasonable price for the quality of the rooms.

The hotel's location is convenient, with easy access to metro and tram stations, but parking can be challenging due to restricted access during certain hours. The proximity to popular attractions like the Blue Mosque and Spice Bazaar adds to its appeal.

The dining experience was a mix of positives and negatives. While the food was well-priced, the limited choices and low-quality fruit and cheese options were disappointing, especially for a city known for its culinary offerings.

The hotel is very accessible for wheelchair users and offers a nice view. The rooms are quite small, though. The staff are professional and helpful, representing the hotel well. The location is good with many shops and restaurants nearby, but it may not be exactly what you're looking for. Dining options are comfortable with a range of choices, but some items may not meet expectations.
