G Suites Airport

İstanbul, Turkey
$40-60 (Historical/Zombie Listing)/ yö

Varaa tämä, jos You enjoy the thrill of arriving at a hotel that has been shut down by authorities for lacking a license.

Miksi ihmiset rakastuvat sitä

  • They don't — it is closed for sale on major platforms
  • Formerly cheap rates for long stays
  • Proximity to the defunct Ataturk Airport (not the new one)

Pikakatsaus: A 'zombie' listing that is legally closed due to permit issues; do not book this under any circumstances.

Arvioinut @TravelwithMichael: I booked this for a quick work trip and didn't want to leave. Having a washing machine and a separate living room to take calls changed the game. It felt like my own luxury apartment in Istanbul, not just a hotel room. Perfect for getting work done in peace.

The hype

Before it closed, guests described it as a dirty, basement-level disaster with non-existent service.

Reality check

Agoda reviews left it with a dismal 5.3/10 cleanliness score, citing stains, hairs in beds, and basement rooms with no windows.

  • You are an investigative journalist looking for a scam
  • You want to lose your deposit
  • You enjoy sleeping in industrial zones far from tourist sites

FAQ & Piilotut vinkit

Kaikki mitä haluat todella tietää ennen varaamista.

Is G Suites Airport near the Istanbul Airport (IST)?

NO. It is 40km away. The name refers to the old, closed Ataturk Airport.

Is the pool free?

The listing claims pool access, but it is a shared resident pool that may be inaccessible to illegal short-term rentals.

Why can't I find this on Booking.com?

It has been delisted or marked 'closed' on reputable platforms due to quality and licensing issues.

Is it safe?

The building (G Plus) is safe and modern, but the 'G Suites' operator is unverified and likely operating without a license.

What is the difference between G Suites and The G Hotels?

Huge difference. 'The G Hotels' is a legitimate 5-star hotel. 'G Suites' is a shady apartment rental operator in the same complex.

Can I get a refund if I booked it?

Unlikely. Third-party operators like this are notorious for ghosting guests.

Sisäpiirin vinkit

  • ✨

    If you are stuck in Bagcilar, 'Sirazen Doner' nearby has excellent 4.2-star wood-fire doner kebab.

  • ✨

    The 'G Plus' complex has a Migros supermarket on the ground floor — useful for supplies.

  • ✨

    Use the M9 Metro line (Mimar Sinan station) to escape the traffic, though it's still a long ride to tourist areas.

5 asiaa, jotka sinun pitää tietää ennen matkaasi

  • 💡The cleanliness score on Agoda was 5.3, which is catastrophically low for Istanbul.

  • 💡You might be asked to meet someone at a corner rather than a reception desk.

  • 💡The 'Spa' is likely off-limits to guests of this specific operator.
