I had a lovely stay at Lionel Hotel in Istanbul, but there were definitely some ups and downs. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home, and the rooms were clean and elegantly designed. However, the dining options weren't very impressive and the breakfast selection left a lot to be desired. Overall, I had a pleasant experience, but there's room for improvement in the food department.

I had a mixed experience at the Lionel Hotel Istanbul. While I appreciated the cleanliness and spaciousness of my room, the service, particularly at the front desk, was less than ideal. I encountered issues with room access and staff responsiveness that dampened my overall stay, although I found some staff members genuinely helpful. The location was convenient for public transport but not ideal for tourists.

The hotel is a bit off the beaten path, in an industrial area, which made it tough to find good spots to explore nearby. Public transport was available but a bit of a hassle with taxis costing extra if you didn't pay cash.

Dining options were hit or miss. Some meals were decent, but I found the restaurant's service lacking and the food didn't always meet expectations. The coffee machine was tricky to figure out, too.
