The entrance is on Siraselviler Caddesi, a short stroll from the square itself, the metro, and a cluster of restaurants and shops.

Inside, the public areas are decorated in an Ottoman style that some guests find atmospheric and others find dated. Rooms are described as spacious and clean, with air conditioning, mini-bars, and tea and coffee facilities. The hotel also offers practical touches like a currency exchange, valet parking, and a paid airport shuttle.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Dining experience is not a highlight — The Dining category scores only 5 out of 10, suggesting the restaurant and breakfast, while adequate, may not meet everyone's expectations.
- Mixed guest satisfaction — While many reviews are positive, one guest said 'Everything very bad,' and another noted the hotel's name appeared differently as 'Square Hotel,' which could cause confusion.
- Rooms and cleanliness could be better — The Rooms and cleanliness category scores 7, indicating that some guests found room standards or housekeeping not up to a 4-star level.
- No pets allowed — If you're traveling with a pet, this hotel is not an option – the policy explicitly states pets are not allowed.
