Ruz Hotels is frequently praised for its stylish, modern rooms, with some highlighting the quality of the showers and appreciated details like brickwork and armchairs. Its location just off Istiklal street is ideal for exploring nearby bars and shops, and the rooftop restaurant offers incredible city views, especially during breakfast. While the street-level noise can be noticeable on weekends, many find the inclusive mini-bar and in-room laundry a great bonus.

Decent stay, some issues

small bathroomloud noise
The bathroom was quite small. I also noticed a lot of noise at night. The street outside had bars that were very loud. This continued until 2 or 3 in the morning. The noise made sleeping difficult, even with the windows closed. I was a bit disappointed.

I appreciated the hotel's central location, near public transport. This made exploring so easy. The interior design felt so chic. The rooftop bar offered a panoramic view. It was really pretty.
The small bathroom was not ideal. I felt there was a lot of noise. The street outside was pedestrianized. The windows seemed poorly insulated. I did not sleep so great.

The location was central! It was near Galata Tower and Istiklal street. The breakfast was of very good quality, served on the top floor terrace. It had amazing views.
The bathroom was too small. The street was located in a car-free zone, but it was very noisy. The windows were poorly insulated.
