Morava Hotel

I’ve stayed here before and really enjoyed it, so when I saw they reopened after a year of renovations, I booked a room right away. I'm glad to say it still has the same great quality and atmosphere. Everything was spotless, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The location is perfect—right in the center of Istanbul and close to everywhere we wanted to visit. The breakfast was delicious with plenty of options, and we also really liked the free, unlimited tea and coffee. Another great stay, thanks for everything!

Location, personal, breakfast, free tea and coffee. There were no slippers in the room

Relatively close to tram. Incorrect bedding arrangements. I specifically requested for 2 adults and 1 kid bedding. However, I was given only 2 single beds. Upon request, a foldable bed was provided. No variation on breakfast. Each day we had the same breakfast items. We were asked for 17 Euro per adult and/or kids upon asking for swimming pool facilities. Then we were informed that the pool is in a separate hotel. After going there, we learnt that the pool is 1.7 metre deep which is not kids friendly. The housekeeping service did the cleaning every day. However, I had to ask for toiletries (shampoo, hair wash etc.) as they were not refilled after the very first day. No tissue papers in the room. No free water. No in-room tea or coffee facilities. There is big gap with the amenities being advertised and being provided. I don't recommend staying in the hotel mainly because of the dodgy approach of the hotel management.

The only good thing about the property is the room itself. However, considering the rate it’s not really a good value for money, see below. [[ Don’t waste your money. ]] Too many things: 1/ no basic facilities like ironing shirts/pants or being able to make some tea in your own room. You’ll need to pay to use an iron. For making tea you’ll need to go downstairs. 2/ the hotel has no swimming pool or gym whatsoever. They rent swimming pool or gym facilities from the nearby hotel at a *dear price*. The pool in the next hotel isn’t kids’ friendly either. 2/ the breakfast lounge and reception are way too small. I’ve had people stepping over me a few times while I was having breakfast. 3/ the hotel staff keep pressing on tour plans which are costed at quite higher rates compared to those available elsewhere. 4/ even basic taxi services organised by the hotel staff are more expensive and less comfortable than those available online. and finally, 5/ there was a error on my part where I hadn’t included my wife’s name in my booking by mistake. The hotel staff made sure of making me pay for it after repeated pressing. But the way the amounts were made up and changed over time made me feel uncomfortable. Interestingly, they made an accommodation arrangement error for my brother’s family who included all three members correctly but the hotel didn’t make necessary bedding arrangements. In my brother’s case they didn’t refund the money or apologise for their mistake. As you can see - there is ABSOLUTE DOUBLE STANDARD!!!!! MAKE MONEY OFF TOURISTS. I’ve travelled around the world for business and leisure but never in any hotel have I felt so let down. Lastly, if you’re going to spend your valuable earnings on hotel, book in an established hotel which are managed by professional people. Don’t come here.

We had a great stay in Morava hotel. Everything was really perfect. The staff, especially the manager of the hotel, the breakfast, the room and bathroom were very clean. Also the beds were very comfortable. We highly recommend this hotel. We found our favourite hotel in Istanbul and will definitely return there!

Nobody could have predicted that choosing this hotel would turn out to be the best decision of our trip. My friend and I have never experienced such a high level of service. Throughout our stay, we felt completely at home, thanks to the positive, kind, and hospitable management. I want to extend a huge thank you to Selcuk. He is more than just a receptionist; he has become our friend! We deeply appreciate everything he did for us—our conversations, the coffee, and his attentive care? We were also fortunate to meet Mesut, another friend, who always paid close attention to his guests and provided exceptional service?. On a more formal note, the rooms are spacious and comfortable, larger than most rooms in other hotels in this area. The hotel’s location is convenient, with public transport about 10-15 minutes away. Breakfast was a highlight of our day—I think we tried all the desserts and might need to work off those extra calories, but it was worth it. The food is made with natural ingredients and prepared fresh. (Thank you Big Mimi Noyade)☺️. Also thank you to our receptionist guys Irfan and Burak for helping us with every our problem??. Dear Morava team, thank you for providing such a wonderful experience. I hope we’ll have the chance to see all of you again someday?. -

The property is not too busy which makes it very relaxing. The rooms are spacious and clean with air con, Wi-Fi etc. Great location and easy to navigate towards the main sights and attractions. Everything was fine!

Absolutely draconic guest visitation policies, even when guests leave their documents in accordance with Turkish lawsv, staff starts calling your room.after 15 minutes threatening to charge you for triple occupancy for your room with 2 single beds . I understand laws , but I have never had this extent of a hassle when having friends over for an hour or two . The law requires documentation which was provided , the hotel managemnt is all about greed ! Wanting to charge 3x for a couple guests for less than 30 minutes . This ruined my whole experoence and left a really bad impression of the hotel! Also there really is no place in the lobby and the only option is sitting outside on plastic chairs in the heat and dust. No where to have a private conversation . I had 2 colleagues over and it was obviousky not a romantic meeting or a party ! Get your ducks in a row !!! I moved out for this reason and will never recommend! This is the higher managements bad , staff are also victims of this policy !

Great helpful staff with a very good location just a walking distance from tourist attraction. Our stay was very pleasant & comfortable the hygiene level was excellent and we had tasty breakfasts . But I have to say it again the best part was the hotel staff. Nothing in particular

The best room is the sea view and is very very nice. But I wouldn’t have this room without the kindness of Selçuk that made everything possible to make me confortable .

Lovely staff, very accommodating. Good Wifi Good morning buffet selection Variety of coffee and tea all day. Clean Close to Grand Bazaar 6 to 7 blocks. Walkable to Blue Mosque, etc if you can walk approximately 20 minutes, with a couple blocks further to promenade along the Mediterranean and or to Bosphorus. 4 blocks to tram or bus, 6 to metro Nothing. However the 0450 noise is a little annoying at first but out of their control.
