The staff were friendly- very helpful giving us directions on how to get around for the evening. It looked nice on the outside and the rooms were nice as well. Nothing too fancy but definitely worth it. Was a fairly low price - compared to American hotel standards at least. If you are looking for a place near the airport to stay, it's a great option. And it's right next to the subway station so you can hop on there and head to the more touristy sites if you'd like real easy.

The hotel is on the air side of the terminal and provides refuge from the noise and bustle of the international terminal. They will provide a wake up (err, get out of the room NOW) call when your time inside is up, but the clean and quiet and the option to stretch out my legs and get some rest makes it worth the price.

The general airport noise near the room is more then offset by the convenience factor of this…read morehotel. Instead of heading through passport control, picking up your bags and taking a shuttle to an offsite hotel, you can transit through to this hotel without leaving the secure zone if you have a long layover, or early flight. Free wifi that works great, plugins (which are lacking in the IST airport terminal) comfy beds, cleeaannn rooms, nice carpet, sparkling tub/shower and large bathroom, and even glass block lighted 'window' so you can pretend it is daytime outside along with in-room tea and coffee combine to offset the high cost of relaxing before a 14 hour non-stop flight back to LAX. Rates are in three hour time blocks, but very spendy. The down side was that our luggage that was supposed to be checked through didn't make it to LAX, but that isn't the hotel's fault.

This was our first visit to Istanbul, so we did not know what to expect at this hotel. When are…read morearrived, I was pleased with the exterior of the property. Once I entered the main entrance, I had to go through a security check, almost like I was at the airport. It only took two seconds, then I approached the front desk. Let me just say that the decor in the lobby was stunning and certainly comparable to a 4 star hotel in the States. The check in process was swift, and the front desk agent was very hospitable. My husband and I truly enjoyed our room. It was extremely clean and modern. Just be sure to bring a universal charger with you if you're an American. Even though my stay was brief, I made time experience a Hammam bath (Turkish bath) at their spa. They did not disappoint, and I think I only paid $30 USD. What a bargain! If you're visiting Istanbul for any length of time, be sure to stay at this property. You won't regret it!!

But we found out that the room didn't include the pool access and we were asked 50 bucks additional fee per person just to get in to pool :( No minibar in our room but they provided free bottle water daily.

Being in Istanbul for 15 hours at the end of our trip, we decided to get a hotel instead of…read moredreading our stay in the airport. The good: It's near the airport so location is great if you need somewhere nearby for the short amount of time. The lobby and computer area are contemporary and a nice set up. They reply quickly to emails if you need help with any accommodations. The hotel provides a complimentary shuttle to and from the airport. The bad: The complimentary shuttle is hard to find in the airport since they don't have a clear sign like some other near by hotels however the tip is: it's in the arrivals between A and B, it's white and says the hotel logo on the door part. No major restaurants were near by, and the ones which were near by were closed at night when we got to the hotel. The employees at the front desk were extremely rude and didn't want to answer questions and were shooing us away fairly quickly when checking us in. The room was pretty standard however the bed was very uncomfortable and I couldn't sleep the whole night. Also the heat was extreme in the room and we couldn't turn down the heat, in addition they don't have AC, so good luck in the summer if your visiting. Closing thoughts: I rather travel 30-40 minutes to the Sultanahmet part of Istanbul to stay in a much better hotel and pay around the same price.~

Usually the Radisson Blu brand is considered to be one of the top brands along with Marriott Hilton…read moreand Hyatt. When we had an overnight transit in Istanbul i was looking for a good hotel near the airport and after reading reviews on expedia i choose the Radisson Blu as we had stayed with them in other cities. Unfortunately, this Radisson Blu was definitely not up to par. We got to the hotel late around 1130 pm and everything around the hotel was already closed. Also at the airport it was very difficult to find the hotel shuttle as there were no signs so we had to take a cab to the hotel. Holiday Inn and Hyatt had shuttle signs but Radisson Blu had none. As it was a very short stay i was hoping the room would be ok but the bed was very hard and uncomfortable and the room had no air and it was very hot even though the weather was very nice outside. Positives are that the hotel is near the airport plus we took the shuttle back to the airport but plane noise is tremendous as flights are taking off and landing consistently though out the night.

The receptionist checked in for us(because when he booked the hotel room it accepted and the convention was hold this hotel, so they trust us) and told my husband to call and talk Amex customer service person. We got our room and my talked to the Amex person who told my husband "no tap, no tip, use the scan". So my husband went back to the front desk and told them what he talked with Amex person, then tried to use Amex card but didn't work. They swapped another credit card scanner, but still didn't work. Finally, another card worked, so we made it but hard work. Our room was good size for us but, sink drain was super slow, and we told about it, didn't fixed until we checked out, and room TV didn't work (we heard same complain from the people who attended the convention) and reported but it finally worked in the morning we left. Our hotel room booking plan was included executive lounge plan, we enjoyed cocktail time with some Turkish Pupus and some Turkish sweets. Breakfast was buffet, many selection of Turkish meals. Not everybody could speak English (except receptionist) but their service was common.

We had a high floor sea view and the room was lovely - I would avoid booking a garden suite as those rooms are old and tired (and smoky and previously used for Covid-quarantine) but the tower was lovely and as many others have said, the staff is wonderful. An extensive breakfast buffet was included - served downstairs in a dedicated restaurant just above the pool. They had a huge variety of fruit, salads, cheese, pastries (Turkish and French - sweet and savory), sausage, eggs/omelets made to order, pancakes, yogurt, etc. Plus, coffee/tea/espresso drinks and many juices. We ate one evening in the hotel's restaurant and were pleasantly surprised but the exceptional fish and great wine list. Definitely would recommend. The pool was great and very refreshing in the 40+ degree days. Overall, super happy with our quick 2-day stopover stay.
