I recently stayed at The Elysium Taksim, and there were some highlights and low points. The location was fantastic, just a five-minute walk to Taksim Square. The staff were friendly and attentive, making me feel welcomed. However, I faced some issues with check-in and the Wi-Fi was disappointingly slow. Overall, it's a lovely hotel with potential for improvement.
