Elite World Grand Istanbul Kucukyali
Clean room, luxury premises, everything top notch. You are locked into their restaurants though (nothing else near) which are quite pricey.

Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul
The hotel was nice, you are very well received at the entrance, the receptionists also welcome you well, but some floor workers could have spoken a more formal language, they could have been more respectful. But in general, I liked it. The breakfast is very nice.
