Terribly rude staff who take forever to process guests. No one in the airport has any clue on how to get to airside and it took us ages to find the place in spite of so called instructions from hotel. Very overpriced and staff are very smug about it.

Basic for the price

We were overnighting in the Istanbul airport and for the amount of money expected more than a partially used roll of toilet paper. But more importantly, having coffee in the room for that price was expected. Instead we were told that we had to buy the entire breakfast at 45 Euros to get any coffee.

It’s an airport hotel so it suits its purpose and a specific need. The rooms were clean and decent size considering it’s in an airport. The air conditioning was terrible so room was very warm and stuffy. Only interacted with front desk staff - they seemed grumpy.

I booked my stay through Expedia and stayed in a Premium King Room for a 10-hour layover. The experience was excellent. The room was modern, spacious, and very comfortable—perfect for getting a solid rest between flights. The bed was good and I was able to get great, uninterrupted sleep. The best part is the location inside the airport, which makes it extremely convenient. No need to leave the terminal or go through security again—everything is right there, just steps from your gate. Staff were professional and efficient, and the check-in/check-out process was smooth and quick, which is exactly what you need during a short stay. I highly recommend YOTEL Istanbul if you have a layover and need a comfortable, stress-free place to stay inside the airport. Booking through Expedia made it easy and hassle-free.

Happy there’s a hotel in transit zone

Rooms are tiny but that’s totally okay for the purpose. Saying this for those who need a bigger room. Also don’t think you are going to get a beauty sleep! You ll hear alarms all the time and people walking back and forth! Which is obvious too

Horrible experience

Staying at this hotel was an absolute nightmare. My family and I paid over $1000 for two rooms, only to be met with a truly horrible experience. The check-in and check-out times were bizarre—8 p.m. to 9 a.m.—and made no sense. The staff was incredibly rude and argumentative, with the manager being the worst of all. To top it all off, the noise was unbearable. Every time our neighbors used their shower or opened their door, the sound was so loud it was impossible to rest. I would honestly rather sleep on an airport chair than ever stay here again. I will never be back.
