COCKROACH INFESTED + ESCORTS WALKING AROUND
COCKROACHES IN ROOMS: Video will be uploaded to youtube. I am beyond disappointed with the horrific experience my family and I endured during our recent stay at The Ritz-Carlton Istanbul. This hotel not only failed to meet basic hygiene standards but also demonstrated a complete lack of professionalism and customer care. Cockroach Infestation: We were horrified to discover a cockroach in our room, which is completely unacceptable for any hotel, let alone one claiming to be luxurious. My wife and children fled the room in terror, which you can confirm through the CCTV footage. I had to catch the cockroach myself as no staff responded promptly. It took an unreasonably long time for the manager to attend to the situation, and even then, there was no urgency or genuine concern. Health Concerns: My toddler has been ill for the last two days, and I now suspect this may have been caused by the unhygienic conditions in the room. For a hotel that claims to be of high standards, this is utterly unacceptable. Safety Hazards: The issues didn’t stop there—there was a broken scale in the room that shattered during use, which could have seriously injured someone. Such negligence further highlights the lack of proper maintenance in the hotel. The staff failed to clean up all the shattered glass until approximately 40 minutes to an hour later. Staff Behavior: To make matters worse, the staff showed incredibly poor professionalism. They argued with me about complimentary laundry, claiming it

Smoking hotel
There is smoking in the hotel, in some rooms, but the scent gets everywhere. We had to switch rooms because of this, and we'd still get whiffs of it at times. They say your floor is non-smoking, but that really doesn't matter since the air circulates throughout the building. Service was ok, but they nickel and dime like crazy. $15 for a bottle of water is outrageous. But hey, it's Turkey and the entire country is out to rip off travelers.

2/10 Poor

We booked and paid for a premium king room with a full Bosphorus view. When we checked into our room, we had a view of another structure 20 feet from the room. When I called to change our room, the front desk literally told me “yea well you’re on the 3rd floor so there’s not a full view there”. What kind of response is that? It’s not my fault or responsibility that I’m on the 3rd floor and therefore I don’t get the view I paid for. They didn’t have any other rooms available that night and told us they’d change our rooms in the morning. So we didn’t unpack that night. Woke up, reminded them of the change, and went out for the day. Came back around 6PM - which is ample time for them to change rooms for us - and a new room wasn’t ready. After I expressed my unhappiness, a room became available in 5 mins. Fine, thanks. Even worse than this, some floors of this hotel are smoking floors. Every time someone lit a cigarette, the smell of it came into the room through the ventilation. It was disgusting. One morning we were woken up at 6am in the morning with the literal smell of raw sewage. I ran to the bathroom to see if our toilet overflowed or something. Nope. Somewhere I guess something happened with a toilet or sewer system, and the smell came into our room through the ventilation. We had to shower and dress with this smell. When I complained about this, I was asked if we had any accidents… no. Said they send somebody to clean our toilets. Great problem solving, thanks.
