This is a small hotel very close to lots of restaurants. It's a short walk to Kumkapi station which gives you an easy journey to all the main attractions. Hotel facilities are basic but the beds are comfortable and a reasonable breakfast is included. The best feature is the staff - they are just so friendly and helpful and made us feel so welcome.

A great place to stay overall, with awesome staff

Staff at the hotel is very helpful and want you to have a great time at Istanbul. The area is good place to stay and see old Istanbul, Just keep in mind that in order to get to public transport you need To walk at least 15’min with a good portion being uphill. Anyways it’s a great place to stay and the staff it’s great. Best cost benefit relation.

We had a lovely stay here at Goldensand hotel. First time in Istanbul and we was in the centre of everything. 5 min walk to the sea, 10 min walk to the grand bazaar and other attractions. The hotel staff were lovely and always accommodating. Shout out to Nergiz & Yaser. Thank you for a lovely stay

The staff was very kind, and willing to help you out. The area where the hotel is located near by to main tourist attractions. If you are a walker by heart, this is your place, no need to buy train tickets, all can be done just by walking. The staff recommended a great tour by boat. The area is noisy, music and dancing can be listened late at night, probably a great place to stay for younger folks. Overall we had a good time.

2/10 Poor

Nicht zu empfehlen

Personal war zunächst sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Wir hatten 2 Zimmer gebucht. Diese waren nicht in Ordnung. Nichtig richtig sauber in einem Zimmer ein sehr unangenehmer Fäkaliengeruch im Bad. Das andere Zimmer sehr sehr klein, im Bad konnte man sich kaum drehen. Auf die Bechwerde an der Rezeption wurde zugesagt, dass am nächsten Tag andere Zimmer bezogen werden könnten. Am nächsten Tag wollte uns der Hotelmanager um einen weiteren Tag vertrösten, weil das Hotel angeblich ausgebucht sei, was defintiv nicht der Fall war. Letztlich wurde nach heftiger Diskussion ein anderes Zimmer zur Verfügung gestellt was zwar größer war, aber im Bad einen großen Schimmelbefall an der Decke und den Wänden aufwies. Leider ist das Hotel nicht zu empfehlen für diesen Preis gibt es deutlich bessere Hotels in Istanbul. Die Unehrlichkeit des Managers ist auch nicht alzeptabel.
