Vavien Hotel

A lovely little spot, and close to everything :)

Clean, good price, friendly staff.

I liked that there were free bottles of water at reception and our room (junior suite) had a nice view of the city! The location was good, as it was very central for where we wanted to go! The staff was also very very nice, and tried to communicate with us, even though they didn't speak much English and we don't speak Turkish. The room was pretty expensive, and didn't really feel worth the price. Also a few little things -- the balcony doors were also really hard to open and close, the pillows were very thick and hard, the floor of the room was always very dirty, despite them cleaning our room every second day as requested. However, these were minor things!

I enjoyed my time in the Vavien hotel. Hotel staff: Vavien hotel staff was very helpful and customer oriented. Location: 2 minutes of walking to food shops, restaurants, sea and Ataturk bridge with metro train. Galata bridge, Galata Tower, Egyptian bazaar, famous Istiklal street and ferry boat stations are 5-10 minutes of walking distance from the hotel. Vavien hotel is located in the district where a lot of shops sell construction, bathroom and plumbing materials. So, don’t be shocked to see them during the day. It is very quiet around the hotel during night time. Room: My room was very comfortable and warm, considering cold weather outside. My room had clean and comfortable single bed, towels, TV, fridge, safe, electric kettle, cup with tea spoon, tiny table with chair, mirror and cloth hangers. Bedside table was comfortable to put drinks or food during watching movies. Bathroom with toilet and hot/cold shower and sink was divided by glass wall. Complimentary tea, sugar and water were provided on a daily basis. Room cleaning was offered every day. But I didn’t need daily cleaning. Wi-Fi worked very well in my room. Overall, I found Vavien hotel very comfortable for short and long stay. I would be happy to come back here again. I liked everything.

Good location, decent price, clean rooms, simple but a serviceable place to stay for a short trip. Few amenities in the rooms, but this is not advertised as such.

Glass door to bathroom, let me peek in Can be peeked on using the shower

Superb

Great location right in the center. River and Galata Tower not far by foot. Busses, ferry and train are close by. Single bed room quiet, spacious and comfortable. Mosque view. Free water bottles provided to take at the entrance.

Exceptional

no

Staff so attentive, lovely atmosphere. In an industrial area, so very eerie at night walking back to the hotel, only 500 metres from main shopping bar area but seems miles at night.

The staff was very nice The wifi was not great The neighbours in the room were loud and we could hear everything next door

very polite and kind stuff, clean space Unstable wi-fi in my bed

Clean and tidy, fab location. Staff were amazing at reccommendations and helping book taxis Arrived late at night and wasn’t sure about street but it was absolutely fine

If you can not sleep without AC, then this place is not for you. There is AC but it’s not cold, and it takes forever to get a good temp in a room.

Near from metro and tramby

The location was very good and they clean your room every day, they also bring you tea and water which is nice gesture + free apples. Staff was enough friendly and helped us when we needed. Also they have elevator which is goood. Pillows were the only terrible thing tbh.

Location
