It’s a moderate place to stay especially for the price and this time of the year, fairly good and comfortable but don’t expect a more than average accommodation. In general it’s clean for its price as well. It was a pleasant stay.

The rooms are very cold and full of insects
The room was very cold and when I protested, they said that they would turn it on from December and room 206 was full of mosquitoes, so I changed my room. I recommend that if someone chooses this hotel, bring a heater and insecticide.

Best hotel in Taksim
Good hotel with great receptionists, especially Eyyup who always willingly offered help everytime I wanted to explore the city or when i wanted to order food.
My room had a terasse with a nice view of the neighbourhood.

Excellent Stay
I'd definitely recommend Retropera Hotel. I really enjoyed my stay there. My room had everything one would need - kettle, hair dryer, tea/coffee, etc. The bathroom had complimentary shampoo and soap, which was also a very nice touch. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The hotel itself is less than a 5 minute walk to Taksim Square. I will stay here again when I visit İstanbul in the future.
