I had a wonderful stay at RECITAL! The rooms were very much spacious compared to other hotels nearby, with a kettle, coffee, tea, and a cosy, comfy bed. The minibar and balcony with a view were great additions. The service was helpful and polite, adding to a relaxing experience. The hotel's location was a highlight for me, being close to all attractions and near fantastic local eateries. The dining experience was fabulous with a variety of Turkish cheeses and fresh baked treats.

My stay at the hotel was excellent overall. The rooms were decorated to a very high standard and were comfortable and clean. However, the room size was not as spacious as depicted in some photos. The service was top-notch, especially with Murat at reception who went above and beyond, such as bringing our drinks to the 5th floor. The location was superb, being quite near the Tram Station and close to the city and bazaar, making it very convenient for exploring. The dining experience offered delicious meals with plenty of choices to enjoy each morning. The facilities were well-maintained, ensuring a pleasant stay.
