My stay at this hotel was unfortunately marred by several issues. The location was decent, providing easy access to attractions without being too far from the city buzz. However, the room conditions were lacking as they felt cramped and poorly maintained. Service was a highlight, with staff members attempting to assist despite some shortcomings in their offerings. Overall, it wasn't the best experience, but it had its redeeming moments.

I had a wonderful stay at Skalion Hotel. The location is perfect, just a short walk from iconic attractions like the Grand Bazaar and Blue Mosque, and the staff made us feel truly valued with their attentive service. The breakfast was a delightful highlight, offering a wide variety of delicious options. However, the room was a bit small for three people and occasionally had a slight cigarette smell, which could be improved.

The Skalion Hotel provided a delightful stay with welcoming staff and a good atmosphere. The location is strategic, making it easy to explore local attractions like the Grand Bazaar. However, the rooms' comfort level varied, particularly concerning noise, and some facilities need maintenance. Overall, the hotel offers a good experience but could benefit from addressing a few issues to enhance guest satisfaction.

My stay at the Skalion Hotel was a mix of good and bad experiences. The staff were genuinely friendly and went out of their way to help us with our needs, which made us feel welcomed. However, the rooms were smaller than expected and cleanliness was a concern with some areas feeling neglected. The location was fantastic, very close to key attractions, but the dining options could use some improvement. Overall, while it has its charm, there are several areas needing attention.

Staying at the Skalion Hotel and Spa was an incredible experience. The welcoming ambiance created by the staff made us feel like we were part of a community. The breakfast was outstanding, offering a delightful variety each day. The location of the hotel could not have been better, as it was within walking distance from major attractions. However, I did notice that the rising noise from the street could occasionally be disruptive, which was a bit of a downside.
