Elysian Airport Hotel & Restaurant

Excellent price and quality of room for a night stop over. The rooms and bathrooms are small but tastefully decorated with quality finishes, and well laid-out. Surprisingly far from the airport for an airport hotel but we figured out that all hotels on this street are airport hotels (the 2 cubicle-like hotels in the airport have terrible reviews, so we skipped them); in short all hotels are far from the airport; it appears they are transforming this part of town into an airport hotel area, and the area’s infrastructure is work in progress. The expensive shuttle for 6 that was sold to us as a private Mercedes car took over 20 minutes to arrive to pick us up at the airport (taxi would have been faster). Reception staff made it right by reducing the transportation price and the morning shuttle was on time. Great car. Reception recommended a great family restaurant «  Elvis Kasap Ve » where we enjoyed the freshest and tastiest lamb and lentil soup. It is a 15 minutes walk on a road that lacks a side walk in some sections, worth it and is perfect exercise after a long flight.

Helpful and kind staff, enough amenities, conveniently located close to Istanbul Airport (15 mins) and providing shuttle services for 30 Euros. Yet, you can grab a cab for 1/3 of that price. Nice breakfast options, not allowed to order food from outside, no alcohol service. Overall, nice price/performance ratio.

Hôtel en travaux. Petite équipe très dévoué. Solution pratique pour un départ très tôt à partir de l'aéroport d'Istanbul à une vingtaine de minutes. Attention les frais annexes (navette vers l'aéroport, alimentation sur place) sont élevés.

Reasonably priced, clean, comfortable and spacious rooms with juccuzi tub. Great for overnight overlay stays, short 15-minute taxi ride to the airport for $15 and fast hotel shuttle is 25€.

Otelin lobi kısmı bildiğiniz kaba inşaat halinde. Bu durumdayken oda satışı yapmalarına nasıl izin veriliyor aklım almıyor. 1 gecelik konaklama için kaldım ama etrafında onlarca otel varken bildiğiniz şantiyeye girer gibi otele girip odaya çıkmaya çalışıyorsunuz. Dışarıda sigara içme alanı otelin inşaatında çalışan elemanlarla dolu, bu denli inşaat halinde ki bir otelin oda satışı derhal durdurulmalı. Bitince çok güzel olabilir ama bitince açılmalı!

Konaklama sırasında sabah inşaat ve matkap sesleriyle uyandık, çünkü otel içinde inşaat devam ediyordu.

The service was top-class. All the staff was very friendly and eager to help. I definitely recommend getting their shuttle service to and from the airport, especially for travelers with luggage. The price was very good compared to other transport options. The rooms were also clearly very new, and our stay felt luxurious. The one current downside to this hotel is that they are still undergoing renovations, which means there are sections that are noticeably under construction. This will hopefully be completed soon. Besides that, excellent stay.

The hotel seems new. Very nice until you look closely and find that some of the craftsmanship was rushed. The value of this hotel is fantastic. They offered transportation from the airport, which was fine. The bed was comfortable. When I was there in May 2025, they were still hammering and drilling during the day. So much for sleeping in. There is also Call to Prayer very early in the morning that woke me up as well. Thin walls I guess. Nevertheless, the hotel was very nice, the staff was wonderful, and the price is so worth it. Not a whole lot to see out in town. A few restaurants and a pharmacy. If you get food from the hotel (ordering from a local place), it's delicious.

I have stayed there multiple times and in different rooms. Was in a double room, king size room, triple room, suite with a bed and pull out sofa and depending on a room the amount of noise was different. If you got to see the street-you will hear all the cars. If you got the room looking inside of the building you will see workers smoking and doing construction.The construction was there last year and it is still going this year. A lot of floors aren’t done. The good thing are the employees of this hotel are friendly and helpful. In the morning of our last stay the light went off and of course the elevators. So we had to shove our staff in the bags without having light. Perks of construction they have. I went down and got a staff member to get our bags and poor thing was carrying everything 3 floors down. Very nice guy. Thank you for that. Internet was down too because of that. Thankfully we had our cell service internet to call a cab. With cabs it is hit or miss with the staff. This time they were offering other people to call it. Another times I stayed they shrugged their shoulders and said they have a shuttle. 30 euros one way. I am from Miami and it is way more expensive than Istanbul and our taxis don’t charge that for 15 minutes ride. So I opened uber app and ordered a taxi. Was about 12 bucks to the airport. Taxis in general in Istanbul are a rip off if you don’t get a meter or an uber. Overall the hotel is ok to sleep at for 1 night.

Staff was very friendly. Room was ok. Doing construction so everything is a mess and the noise was loud. Only street parking and that was limited.

The room and bathroom were tidy and clean. The bed was comfortable. Overall I was pleased with this hotel.

Clean rooms, polite staff.

The covers of both beds were partially stained with dirty.

トイレの掃除が全く出来ていないにも関わらず、掃除が出来たというシールが貼ってあった。シャワーの排水溝にも、髪の毛があったので、全く掃除していなかったのかもしれない。 びっくりした。 エアポートまでのトランスポートの手配、モーニングコールなどのサービスは良かった。

Clean room, excellent staff

Pest control issues need to be addressed!!!

Very clean hotel.

Nice clean rooms that were very large.

Otel tertemiz Personel çok nazik güvenle ailecek kalınabilecek güzel bir otel

I would have loved to give it a 5 stars as when I walked in the place looked amazing....however the bed cover had makeup and the bed had a hair in it. I asked to change it and they did so immediately.

Elysian is a low-budget place about a 15-minute (400 Lira taxi ride) drive from the airport (so further than it appeared on maps). Our room was compact (i.e., very small), with barely enough room to open two suitcases. The mirror/TV on the wall was hung very crookedly, which was off-putting; and the hallways were noisy and loud. And finally, the hotel is in an odd area - there's not a lot around, no real neighborhood, no restaurants we could see.

This was an excellent stay from start to finish. The hotel arranged for my airport transportation to and from the hotel. My room was amazing and I felt like a princess! I was traveling alone and felt very safe! My room was like a spa day! Hot tub, sauna, and Turkish bath! I didn’t want to leave! Thank you for the lovely stay!

Decent hotel for overnight in Istanbul. About 15 minute drive to airport. Room was spacious. Also had a sauna IN the room, which was strange. Round mattress is a bad idea

Reasonably priced, clean, comfortable and spacious rooms with juccuzi tub. Great for overnight overlay stays, short 15-minute taxi ride to the airport for $15 and fast hotel shuttle is 25€.

Staff are excellent and helpful. Room and bathroom nice, but the noise from above and outside has been constant. Poor nights sleep, not ideal when in transit for a long flight.

Die Unterkunft ist OK . Es ist sauber und modern eingerichtet . Einzige was mich gestört hat ist das man Zuviel Lärm mitbekommt

Chambre propre,bien situé,Sauf les claquements des portes toute la nuit et manque d’insonorisation entre les chambres.

Right next to the road. Can hear some traffic in the room. Otherwise nice enough.

Room waw roomy and elegant. Clean and very workable. TV set up should be larger and bedding more fitting. Otherwise a great accommodation

Staff was very accommodating.

The Good: modern design, recently upgraded. Clean. Good breakfast (for a fee). The Bad: not the best location outside the airport. No public transportation close by at least not Sunday evening . Hotel/airport transfers a bit pricey. The Ugly: 7:30AM while I am still sleeping a hotel staff walked into my room by accident. I later found out the room lock never worked!

Bad service

Good stay and good service :)

Easy to find airport shuttle and little wait. Only complaint would be the driver on the return transfer to airport was looking and texting on his phone for almost the entire transfer - only drove with one hand and would be looking at his phone for several seconds at a time. Made me a bit nervous.

Great Stay Near the Airport My wife and I had a great stay during our long layover in Istanbul. The hotel is affordable, cozy, and just 15 minutes from the airport. We took a two-way taxi for 1600 Turkish lira, which was reasonable. The room was clean, well-designed, and comfortable, and the staff were very welcoming. Overall, it was a great choice for a quick stay near the airport. The only downside was when we ordered kunefe late at night. We weren’t told it would take a long time because they had to order it from outside. Still, I’d give this hotel 5 stars and recommend it for anyone looking for a comfortable, affordable place near the airport.

My stay at the Elysian Hotel was exceptional from start to finish. The property itself is beautiful, offering elegant and comfortable rooms that create a relaxing and luxurious environment. The atmosphere throughout the hotel is warm and welcoming, making it an ideal place for both leisure and business travelers. As a female solo traveler who has stayed at many hotels, I felt especially safe and comfortable here. The hotel’s environment, combined with the professionalism of the staff, made this experience stand out as one of the best in terms of overall safety and peace of mind. The staff were consistently amazing, professional, respectful, and genuinely committed to providing outstanding service. Among them, Ibrahim stood out for his remarkable dedication. He was exceedingly respectful, professional, and attentive, going above and beyond to ensure all of my needs were met. His hard work and willingness to assist did not go unnoticed. While the entire team was wonderful, I happened to interact with Ibrahim more frequently, and his exceptional service made a lasting impression. Overall, the Elysian Hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking comfort, beauty, and great hospitality.

Thank you for your service and professionalism

The staff were polite and helpful, the hotel was clean and well-appointed. The rate was great, especially for a last-minute booking when our flight was delayed. The rooms are definitely not sound-proofed from each other - I heard sneezes and coughing - but there wasn't a lot of noise from outside. The biggest issue I had is that the door to my room wouldn't actually lock (neither with the normal digital lock or the deadbolt; there was no chain on the door) but I was too tired to try and switch rooms at midnight. I just put the luggage stand in front of the door so something would wake me up if the door opened.

Good staff clean room good location from Istanbul air port

Das Hotel liegt abgelegen der Ort hat nichts zu bieten einfach nur wenn man eine Nacht dort übernachtet ok

très satisfait , bon rapport qualité/prix. A environ 15 min de taxi de l'aéroport

Havaalanına yakın. Temiz. Su ikramları var. Odada ketil ve çay var. Kahvaltı yada yemek imkanları yok

Great hotel and low price. Very nice front desk staff. Walking distance to market and restaurants.

It's not very close to the airport

Good hotel. Prices are a bit over the top. For an airport hotel it is still 30 minutes away from the airport.

This place is literally in the middle of nowhere

Only 15 minutes from the airport

Small room but very comfortable well arranged with a very nice and welcome bath to soak away those tied muscles. No restaurant in the hotel, nor close to local facilities, but room service available at reasonable extra charge in TL. Not Euro like manny of the other hotels nearby.

As an airport hotel located in a cluster of other airport hotels, this was a very good choice for us. The room for 3 was a suite with a small sofa and coffee table lounge, so there was a lot of space for us and our luggage. There was 24 hour food delivery service in the absence of a restaurant, which was convenient. The staff were friendly and helpful.

There are hotels closer to the airport with better food options. My room service delivery was always cold.

Food wasn’t great, but the overall hotel experience was good

located in somewhat dodgy part of town, but only 20 or so minutes from airport. Rooms are relatively small but modern and comfortable. Given that there's no restaurant I ordered via hotel's room service from local restaurants...a big mistake. Sick all the way home! Can't really say this is the hotel's fault, but they need to vet their restaurants better.

No restaurant, no alcohol, no breakfast

The hotel was convenient for an overnight stop. Staff and cleanliness very good. Unfortunately, the hotel is a long way from decent restaurants. The hotel offers a take-away menu but the food quality is poor (& cold) and prices high.
