Levent Hotel Istanbul

Location for our business trip

Breakfast was a bit limited with now Orange juice available

Clean and friendly staff. Relatively low price. levent regional office was able to walk to work. Kanyon department stores and shopping centers such as Metro City if you can go for 5-10 minutes walking distance.

Thin walls. There was noise. Cleaning staff did not speak English. She do not take tips. (t_t) I hope a lot of fruit in the morning menu.

The staff was extremely helpful but due to the language barrier(no English) that didn't always result in the required solution. WiFi connection was free, very fast and reliable.

The bed was very uncomfortable (hard), street noise penetrated into the room (generators, airco's etc.). Lighting in the room was insufficient(desk) and very cold(energy-saving bare bulbs). TV had almost no English language channels (no CNN, CNBC, EuroNews, BBC etc.).The public spaces (except lobby) were not airconditioned. Breakfast was limited (f.i. no juice or other cold drinks). Biggest issue is that the hotel does not accept AMEX leading to a problem on checkout. Hotel bill was not itemized.
