I had a mixed experience during my stay at Holiday Inn Istanbul City. On the positive side, I thoroughly enjoyed the spaciousness of my family suite and the fantastic breakfast options. the live omelet station was a definite highlight. However, I encountered some hiccups upon check-in with delays and missing towels in the bathroom. this affected my overall impression. The location was great, being right across from the tram station, which facilitated getting around Istanbul quite easily.

I had a pretty good stay overall at the Holiday Inn Istanbul City, despite a few hiccups. The staff were truly attentive and welcoming, which made up for the initial confusion with my booking. I found the location convenient, with easy access to a tram station right across the street that made getting around a breeze. However, the breakfast situation could definitely use some improvement, especially during busy times when the single omelet station just can't keep up.

Breakfast had a decent variety, but during peak times, the wait for freshly made omelets was too long. An upgrade on the toaster situation would be a big help. Other than that, local cafes nearby offer great options.
