New Taksim Hotel has a great location, very convenient for accessing the lively Taksim area. It’s close to both metro and bus stations, making it easy to get around the city. There are plenty of local restaurants nearby offering delicious food.
Like many other guests have mentioned, there is some noise from the nearby school, but it's manageable. On a positive note, the hotel building withstood a 6.2 magnitude earthquake, which speaks well of its construction quality.
The staff are very friendly and helpful, which made the stay even more pleasant. Overall, a good choice if you're looking for a central location and easy access to transportation.
