The worst service ever - high prices, very poor breakfast (they literally put bread that was left at guests at one table back to thw basket so other guest take it again). We asked for simple “lunckbox” - some fruits or sandwich because early check out and they said “NO, we don’t offer this service”. Also nobody cleans your room during your stay and they don’t provide you clean towels each day. For cherry on the top, also AC doesn’t work properly - we couldn’t turn it off because controler didn’t work. About the room - very dated, old and not clean at all. It’s just an aweful hotel with a not helpful stuff.

Disgusting Filthy Dirty. Bed Bugs Infestation

Jul 2022 | sedato909

We stayed here for only 1 night before we took the decision to leave with immediate effect. We found the room infested with bed bugs. The mattresses were completely ridden with them. The condition of the room was utterly disgusting and filthy. Dirt and what can only be described as human excrement was smeared on the tiny filthy bathroom walls. The staff were very rude and disrespectful. We had to vacate the hotel and book ourselves into a habitable hotel down the street. It is with regret and now trauma that we had to experience a night at The Avicenna Hotel. We urge anyone with any self respect to NOT stay at this hell hole. Save your money and dignity.

Great little place in the best area

Jun 2022 | Z2528DMjond

We booked this holiday before we read the reviews and were worried, but clearly we were wrong to worry. This place is fab and a proper gem. It may not be 4* as us Brits or Europeans may think but I can only speak from our experience and after 5 days, not one problem and the staff, all of them have been exceptionally great. Room very clean and new mattress - yes we checked everything when we arrived. Lol. You absolutely must visit the upstairs restaurant on a Saturday night. We were the only non Turkish people there and had a blast. On our night the place was packed with 2 people celebrating birthdays, an engagement and a wedding party. Very loud, but worth it and food great with local music, belly dancing and entertainment. All staff were very attentive and polite. We stayed on the 2nd floor and while some things in the room needed a look, such as a dodgy shower head, we can not complain about anything. We finished our break with drinks on the roof looking out over the Asian side. Breakfast may have been the same every day but with over 50 things to choose from all was great and no complaints from us. Do sit out the front and people watch late in the evening when you return home. The street is the most unique and beautiful place with great food all around you.Do book a room on 2nd floor. Don't get drawn in to bars nearby where beers are twice as expensive as elsewhere. The upstairs roof bar is perfect. Overall our experience was superb. The staff amazing including day and especially overnight staff. Loved our trip to Istanbul
