Guest reviews for Legacy Ottoman Hotel

Everyone (1)
2 out of 5

More like a 3 star hotel not the 5 star advertised

Pros: Good customer service from the health spa attendant
Cons: Customer service skills for the front desk manager. Improvement needed for a uniform system regarding responding to emails
Location: Great location, close to the Spice Market, Grand Bazaar, Karakoy restaurants
Having given an overall disappointing rating for the staff, the fault lay mainly with the aggressive front desk manager who should've been a role model for his staff. The hotel was not 5 star despite the grandeur of its foyer, the rooms small, generally unclean with malfunctioning air conditioning. The "disappointing" rating for all criteria is apt given we have enjoyed exceptional customer service and standard of accommodation in Turkey, hence the high expectations for this establishment.
