This hotel is perfect for someone who would rather spend money on seeing turkey rather than luxurious hotel. This place is away from tourists and made me experience turkey away from the tourism. Food nearby is cheaper, bus literally 30 second walk from the hotel which can take you anywhere. And the reception that is the most sweetest. The breakfast was the same every day but i could never get tired because it was fresh. Plus a nice view of the entire city and suleymaniye mosque. Id recommend this place forever❤️ ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0167E6FB39850F9FF1748DB331A59D382FEE09BB1695390510450.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/33D451E7949D6AC9EE0ED8A8EF41E8EACC8863811695390507201.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/98219F3F24BB488FA29628C718A149470FACF6DB1695390513176.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nicole Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dusanka 2 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The stay was excellent.

Eventually, with enough pressure, the staff moved us to another room, smaller and less accommodating than the one we had paid for. This room's bathroom appeared to have a bird's nest bulging through the vent, the sink was one light push from toppling over, the toilet seat was loose, and mold was around the edges of the floor and in the shower. We raised up this issue with the staff and they agreed they would move us to a similar deluxe room that we had originally paid the following day. In this deluxe room, we found a pair of used underwear and towels stuffed in the bottom of the closet. The balcony had bird poop stains on the chairs and the table top was missing. This bathroom also had mold around the edges of the floor and the air conditioner piping was stuffed with paper towels around it and was leaking into the shower. Cleaning service only came around every other day to clean, and cleaning was spotty at best. One time after a cleaning, we noticed that 8000 TL had disappeared from our room. We raised this issue up with the staff and nothing was done. On the last day, my two older parents asked for some help from the front desk to bring down their large bag from the fourth floor after I had left for the airport overnight and they refused to help. I do not recommend this place. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 27 Jul 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### TERRIBLE - 😞 Don't make the same mistake I made One of the worst experiences of my life. I've traveled to very many different countries and have never had such bad experience with a hotel. My family and I arrived and checked in late around 10:00pm after a very long flight from USA. At around 1:30am while we were sleep, other guests checked in nextdoor and their kids started running and screaming by our doors and the hallway until around 4:00am, banging the walls and slamming the doors. We had 2 rooms, both rooms were very small and had no room to walk around. Outdated and dirty bathrooms. There are no telephones inside the rooms to contact the front desk. We had the rooms for 3 nights and decided to check out in the morning and move to another hotel. I gave the hotel, hotel.com and the management a chance to offer a refund and correct this and they decided to hold myoney and not give me a refund. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Ünal 18 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Odalar temiz çalışanlar güleryüzlü otelin önüne park edilip anahtarı resepsiyona teslim ettik kahvaltı orta diyebilirim çay kahve her zaman var ##### Ünal Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Vialand Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Isfanbul-Holiday-Home-Suites.h8451969.Hotel-Information) > - [Bosphorus Palace Hotel - Special Class](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Bosphorus-Palace-Hotel-Special-Class.h528546.Hotel-Information) > - [The Stay Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-The-Stay-Bosphorus.h4339523.Hotel-Information) > - [Frezya Family Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Frezya-Hotel.h107306634.Hotel-Information) > - [Istanbul Marriott Hotel Pendik](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Istanbul-Marriott-Hotel-Pendik.h2974591.Hotel-Information) > - [Sunlight Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Sunlight-Hotel.h479507.Hotel-Information) > - [Tomtom Suites - Special Class](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Tomtom-Suites-Special-Class.h2647566.Hotel-Information) > - [Vogue Hotel Supreme Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Vogue-Hotel-Istanbul.h36840828.Hotel-Information) > - [Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Swissotel-The-Bosphorus-Istanbul.h889869.Hotel-Information) > - [Kilyos Kale Otel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Kilyos-Kale-Otel.h31009504.Hotel-Information) > - [Catch Sultanahmet - Special Class](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Catch-Hotel.h44565108.Hotel-Information) > - [Sura Hagia Sophia Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Sura-Hagia-Sophia-Hotel.h8046669.Hotel-Information) > - [Conrad Istanbul Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Conrad-Istanbul-Bosphorus.h15234.Hotel-Information) > - [Gleam Bomonti Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Istanbull-Hotel-Spa-Bomonti.h36712019.Hotel-Information) > - [AHC Ayasofya Hotel ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Pierre-Loti-Hotel-Special-Class.h531238.Hotel-Information) > - [THE OMIYA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-THEOMIYA.h89683120.Hotel-Information) > - [Akka Suites Taksim](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Akka-Suite-Taksim.h39277606.Hotel-Information) > - [Taksim Landhouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Taksim-View-Hotel.h38918070.Hotel-Information) > - [Seven Hills Palace & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Seven-Hills-Palace-Hotel-Special-Class.h33786700.Hotel-Information) > - [Nova Plaza Crystal Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Nova-Plaza-Crystal-Hotel.h114364.Hotel-Information) > - [The Elysium Taksim](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-The-Elysium-Taksim.h11553986.Hotel-Information) > - [The G Hotels Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Divan-Suites-Istanbul-G-Plus.h8768240.Hotel-Information) > - [Mayi Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Qua-Hotel.h11779565.Hotel-Information) > - [Windsor Hotel & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Windsor-Hotel-Convention-Center-Istanbul.h72496995.Hotel-Information) > - [ Me by Mula ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Motto-By-Mula.h97514344.Hotel-Information) > - [La Quinta by Wyndham Istanbul Gunesli](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-ZENON-HOTEL.h39794717.Hotel-Information) > - [Büke Hotel Şişli](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Buke-Hotel.h19820371.Hotel-Information) > - [Mövenpick Hotel Istanbul Asia Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Movenpick-Istanbul-Sabiha-Gokca.h69357345.Hotel-Information) > - [No:12 Hotel Sultanahmet](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-No-12-Hotel-Sultanahmet.h68451430.Hotel-Information) ---
