How we score
Each score is worked out by code from the facts this page shows, never from guests’ ratings or a writer’s opinion, and is given as 1 to 5 dots.
Near the sights: how close the nearest listed sight is, and how many are within 1 km. Rooms: the room sizes we show and how many types there are. Facilities: how many kinds the hotel lists (dining, pool or spa, fitness, front desk services, comfort and access). Families: whether children are welcome, and family rooms, a kids’ club or pool, a playground, babysitting. Wellness: spa, hammam, sauna, steam room, pools, gym and massage.
A score is left out when the hotel’s facts are too few to judge it.
About 0.3 km from Taksim Square
Ess Hotel stands on Şehit Muhtar Bey Caddesi in Istanbul, about 0.3 km from Taksim Square in a straight line. Dolmabahçe Palace is about 1.5 km away and Galata Tower about 1.7 km.
Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport is about 31.5 km away, and the hotel runs a paid airport shuttle.
From the 18 m² double to the 25 m² triple
The Standard Double Room and the Standard Twin Room are both 18 m², and each sleeps up to three. The double has one queen bed and a city view; the twin has two twin beds and a street view. A couple sharing one bed and three travellers splitting separate beds therefore get the same floor space, and the choice between them comes down to bedding and which view you prefer.
The Standard Triple Room is the largest of the three at 25 m², with one queen bed and one twin bed, and a city view. It is the room to pick when you want both a mixed bedding arrangement and the extra space, rather than the extra bed alone.
The hotel also has family rooms, and children are allowed.
| Room type | Size | Beds | Sleeps | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Double Room | 18 m² | 1 queen bed | up to 3 | city view |
| Standard Triple Room | 25 m² | 1 twin bed, 1 queen bed | – | city view |
| Standard Twin Room | 18 m² | 2 twin beds | up to 3 | street view |
An indoor pool, spa and hammam
The hotel has an indoor pool, a spa, a hammam and a sauna.
For eating, there is a restaurant and room service. The hotel also provides facilities for disabled guests and a lift.
Check-in, children and pets
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 12:00. Children are allowed. Pets are not allowed, so leave them at home.
The airport shuttle is paid, as is any shuttle service the hotel arranges. If you are arriving by air, factor the shuttle charge into your plans rather than assuming it is included.
Who Ess Hotel suits
It suits couples and small families. Children are allowed, family rooms exist, and the triple at 25 m² gives a family of three both beds and space, while the double and twin each sleep up to three at 18 m².
It also suits a traveller who wants a pool, a spa and a hammam as part of the stay rather than as something to search for elsewhere, and anyone who values an indoor pool in particular.
It does not suit pet owners, as pets are not allowed. And if you are a group needing more than three people in one room, the double and the twin top out at three each.
