Overall great, but needs some more thoughtfulness.

The overall experience was great. The rooms were spacious and very luxurious, and the hotel itself boasted many amenities (like gym, pool, comfortable waiting area, etc.). That said there are a few areas were improvement is necessary. The rooms have a small kitchen, but no utensils or cutlery - they need to provide that. There are large glass areas offering stunning views of the city, however the in-room heating is not sufficient to keep the place warm during winters - they need better insulation or more effective heating. Lastly, there is no door for the shower area, which is not appropriate for families - they need to offer a door or blinds.

We had a wonderful experience staying at The Elysium hotel at Taksim. Great location, food, environment but most importantly the professionalism and friendliness of the staff. The main person who went above and beyond and did of our stay an exceptional experience was Selma, at customer relations.
