It is a family-run hotel. The owners were so welcoming and friendly. Both the owners and the staff were very nice, and receptive to any request. I had all what needed for the purpose of my trip. The hotel location cannot be better at all, as the main train station is 3 minutes walking distance, the major shopping centers and mall are just across the street, and the airport shuttle stop is only 11 minutes walking distance. Bakirkoy has a lovely sea-side corniche of more than 10 km, extending from their yacht port towards Sikeje and the bridge connecting Fatih to Galata/Taksim areas, and walking there was so relaxing and amazing, with many open-air gym facilities and children playgrounds all the way. For me, Ravvda hotel was an excellent value for the money, and a super location that I would not compromise with any additional luxury for my stay in Bakirkoy.
