Great hotel in the heart of Istanbul

I had an amazing experience with The Story Hotel Pera, staff is really friendly, and hygiene is taken seriously.

We stayed for four nights and absolutely loved this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff made our experience exceptional—every single person we interacted with was kind, helpful, and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The location couldn’t be better if you’re planning to explore Istanbul’s historic heart. The Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia are just a short walk away, and the surrounding area is filled with fantastic restaurants—many with rooftop patios offering stunning views...

Good location, very helpful staff

We had a great stay for four nights at Hotel Celine. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Our room was great. We also liked the location, which was very close to things to see and do in Sultan Ahmet, and also close to the tram line which is a great way to get to other parts of the city.

Amazing boutique hotel. Room was great, comfortable bed, large space, only a few rooms per floor. Only drawback was a light noise from the power units outside the window in back, but not too bothersome. Breakfast each morning was fantastic, with an incredible view of Istanbul. A few minutes walk to Istiklal, the new port, and the tram which goes right to Sultanahmet. A few steep roads around the area. Location is next to the Italian Consulate which is good to know for pick ups and drop offs, but...

Clean, safe and very friendly. Excellent customer service

This has been the best hotel I’ve ever been to, and I’ve stayed in resorts before. I’m so incredibly grateful for everyone being so kind, and accommodating regarding my allergies, the 90 minute massage with Nila was heavenly, and the food was magnificent from the room service dinner to the Turkish Breakfast, the bed made me never want to leave, I have to come back to Turkey just for this hotel 💜

Really nice

Exceptional Hospitality and Outstanding Service! What really made our stay special was the incredible staff. Everyone we encountered was genuinely friendly, welcoming, and exceptionally helpful. Their professionalism, politeness, and willingness to go above and beyond made us feel truly valued as guests. It’s rare to find such a consistently high level of hospitality. A wonderful experience, and we would happily stay here again!

The staff were very welcoming and helpful. We spent a week in Istanbul and found our hotel to be an oasis from the business of the city. The breakfast had such an assortment of delicious foods and coffees, and the restaurant staff were very attentive.

Location was central to majority of the sights, restaurants, and nightlife. The staff were hospitable, friendly, and helpful. I would stay here again if I’m back in Istanbul.

Great staff and great location!

excellent location for walking to the major old city sites, good breakfast and nice staff

We had a wonderful experience at this hotel. I can't say enough how great, kind and helpful the staff at were. Breakfast was excellent. The hotel was in a great area where you can walk anywhere so many places to eat around. Very clean rooms with a unique design.I highly recommend this hotel. Tried the Turkish bath in the hotel spa and very much enjoyed it, very unique experience.

The property was lovely and the staff were very helpful and made us feel like home. We had breakfast in the restaurant 3 times - but for the price I would have only gone there once. The room was beautiful and had everything we could want in it - only thing was I wish it had more natural light. Overall we were happy we stayed there the ambience exceeded our expectations.
