Location was central to cafes, restaurants, shopping centre and the waterfront. ##### Craig Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### proceso Aug 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great hotel in a good location in Karakoy, walkable to many dining spots and the Galata tower. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and modern - however, I would definitely pay a little bit extra and book a spacier standard room rather than the economy room (which is pretty much just a bed and bathroom). Lots of options for coffee and restaurants (though the famous dining area running parallel to the hotel street is almost entirely Turkish food...which is awesome, until you start craving variety after a few days). I do think the hotel is a bit too dimly lit, but that is the chosen vibe of the hotel. Finally, the woman working the front desk is very friendly and cute :) ##### proceso Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elena Oct 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Cute, modern hotel.

Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### elviro Nov 24, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities No hot water, soiled bed sheet, bracken coffee maker no air conditioning room was very hot i complained that the ac didn't work they told me to open the very small window.ithe only good thing was the breakfast. And the location ##### elviro Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### lucia May 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room was clean and exact as you look in pictures, the description about how close are the galata Tower, and Istiklal square was not even close, (the description says 4 and 8 mins walking which it is not true, not even in car...) The lobby hotel and other spaces look exactly as pictured and considere them very pretty!! the front desk service considered mediocre, as tourist non turkish language knowledge, asked some help asking one of the guys to talk to a company by phone which we needed some info, and didn´t show any urge or act of interest in helping us. Also, we where kind of lost trying to get to the hotel (walking) cause we didn't have a sim card at the moment to ask for a grab or uber and it was impossible to get there walking with bags due to the wrong info in description about the walking distance time. so.. more less the place was more than great, but would not stay again because of the average service. ##### lucia Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Fareen Feb 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Immediately upon arrival, the toilet malfunctioned. I was there for three days and there was no fix. But what’s worse is they did not give me a discount. Disappointing. The breakfast was amazing. Room was great otherwise. Amazing location. ##### Fareen ### 8/10 Good #### john Nov 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good location and close to attractions and tram. The Wifi is very slow and almost not workable so I have to use my cell data to connect to the internet. Also the taxi the hotel booked for me overcharged me to the airport. When I booked the taxi the front desk told me the charge will be a flat rate at 750 Lira (about $26) but when the driver dropped me off at the airport he asked for $35. I had to catch the flight and had no choice but paid him money. that is not honest and the hotel should not hire the taxi company. ##### john Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Elsie May 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Uncomfortable Room is super small. My friend paid for the exact same room $105, but I was charged $192. This made me very angry. On top of that the room was freezing and they could not control the air conditioner. Very small room to walk. Bathroom super small and uncomfortable. They didn't even had a transformer. Definitely paid too much for this hotel I feel robbed. ##### Elsie Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ersin Oct 5, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was like a horror movie. The room had plumbing problems and it was smelling disgusting, almost impossible to breath. When we contacted to front desk, they told us they don't have any other room available. We asked for a refund and they told us we need to contact expedia about a refund (ofcourse, expedia never refunds). When we were in the room, we realized there is blood stain on the sheets and they replaced the sheets. We couldn't sleep a single minute and it was the worst experience of my life. Now, neither hotel nor expedia is not willing to refund. Definitely not recommending this place to anyone. ##### Ersin Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Rojin Jun 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Wir waren nur eine Nacht da und waren sehr zufrieden ##### Rojin Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Amira Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Hotel-Amira-Istanbul.h3546734.Hotel-Information) > > [The Marmara Pera](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-The-Marmara-Pera.h11691.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, Istanbul Sisli](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h6250043.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet - Special Class](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Istanbul-At-Sultanahmet.h443490.Hotel-Information) > > [Hagia Sofia Mansions Istanbul, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Hagia-Sofia-Mansions-Istanbul.h29743791.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at the Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Istanbul-At-The-Bosphorus.h1856092.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel Istanbul Taksim](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Sofitel-Istanbul-Taksim.h42400472.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Quasar Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Fairmont-Quasar-Istanbul.h16385021.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Istanbul.h14428.Hotel-Information) > > [The Marmara Taksim](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-The-Marmara-Taksim.h26048.Hotel-Information) > > [GLK PREMIER Regency Suites & Spa - Special Class](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-GLK-PREMIER-Regency-Suites-Spa.h1876165.Hotel-Information) > > [Sultanhan Hotel - Special Class](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Sultanhan-Hotel-Special-Class.h1388776.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Grand Istanbul Kalamis Marina Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Wyndham-Grand-Istanbul-Kalamis-Marina-Hotel.h5484206.Hotel-Information) > > [Istanbul Marriott Hotel Sisli](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Istanbul-Marriott-Hotel-Sisli.h6771400.Hotel-Information) > > [CVK Park Bosphorus Hotel Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-CVK-Park-Bosphorus-Hotel-Istanbul.h6055713.Hotel-Information) > > [Sultanahmet Palace Hotel - Special Class](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Sultanahmet-Palace-Hotel-Special-Class.h479516.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Istanbul Bomonti Hotel & Conference Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Hilton-Istanbul-Bomonti-Hotel-Conference-Center.h6226720.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Hilton-Istanbul-Bosphorus.h20867.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Istanbul City Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Sheraton-Istanbul-City-Center.h38329865.Hotel-Information) > > [Conrad Istanbul Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Conrad-Istanbul-Bosphorus.h15234.Hotel-Information) > > [Sura Hagia Sophia Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Sura-Hagia-Sophia-Hotel.h8046669.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Yavuz Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Grand-Yavuz-Hotel.h531232.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Istanbul by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-InterContinental-Istanbul.h521137.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h565576.Hotel-Information) > > [Dorne Suite Taksim](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Dorne-Suite-Taksim.h38494876.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Cevahir Hotel & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Grand-Cevahir-Hotel-Convention-Center.h972529.Hotel-Information) > > [Pera Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Pera-Palace-Hotel.h20555.Hotel-Information) > > [Elite World Grand Istanbul Kucukyali](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Elite-World-Asia-Hotel.h26886285.Hotel-Information) > > [Barcelo Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Barcelo-Istanbul.h32516024.Hotel-Information) > > [Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Swissotel-The-Bosphorus-Istanbul.h889869.Hotel-Information)
