The front desk staffs on night shift were very unpleasant to work with and appeared don’t know what he was doing . He had no sense of urgency when he knew i have a flight to catch.. He wanted to doubly charge my services and continued questioning me about my integrity .
Location of the hotel is amazing, mall behind the hotel and many coffee shops and dinner places. Hotel was so clean and definitely would stay in again.
Great stay at The Westin Istanbul! Perfect location, beautiful and comfortable rooms, and excellent service throughout our stay. Would definitely stay here again!
Breakfast was great and fresh. Room cleanliness is paramount to my OCD wife. Westin really shined here. Check in and check out were very very smooth. It’s located in a busy part of Istanbul , but still felt very safe. All around a wonderful stay. Not ideally located for “major site” sightseeing BUT a great hotel to return to at night after a days sightseeing. If spending longer than 3 days in Istanbul, would recommend this place for a more relaxed stay!
Excellent staff—very welcoming and accommodating. Everything was clean, and the service was outstanding. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a little bit of luxury while staying close to the hub, with fabulous staff and great amenities.

After 15 days travelling across China — including Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, and Sanya — we stayed for two nights at The Westin Istanbul Nişantaşı on our way back to London.
Our first impression was positive. We arrived early in the morning, well before the official 3pm check-in time, and the gentleman at reception kindly arranged an early check-in for us. This was genuinely appreciated after a long journey. The hotel’s location in Nişantaşı is also excellent.
However, based on our extensive experience of staying in luxury hotels worldwide over the past 30 years, I have to be honest — this property does not meet true 5-star luxury standards, especially considering the price.
During this same trip, we stayed at several high-end properties in China, including Mandarin Oriental Pudong Shanghai, InterContinental Beijing Sanlitun, Conrad Chongqing, and Sofitel resorts in Sanya. All of these hotels offered a noticeably higher level of quality, often at a lower price point (under €200 per night for club-level rooms with breakfast).
In comparison, The Westin Istanbul Nişantaşı was the most expensive stay of our trip (over €220 per night), yet delivered the lowest overall value.
The breakfast was disappointing — the selection was limited, and several items were cold and lacking in quality. The room itself did not feel like a luxury product. The interior finishes, pillows, towels, and bathroom amenities were all below what one would expect from a true 5-star hotel. While there
My stay at the Westin was absolutely amazing! From the helpful staff, to the cleanliness of the rooms, to the wide array of breakfast selections, it was all very satisfying! Given that I had no Turkish knowledge, the staff were so helpful and willing to direct me each day and help make my plans go more smoothly than expected. One of the guest concierge staff, Ilker, was the most helpful; he checked in on us everyday and gave as the best pointers for the area, making sure that we were getting the best bang for our buck! I would absolutely recommend anyone to stay at the Westin if they are visiting Istanbul; besides the service, the location is perfect for eatery, public transit and local shopping!

Wonderful stay, and above the best with amazing staff. Thanks to t
Our 3 day stay was really comfortable. The bed and pillows were great, everything was clean and the breakfast options were plentiful. The hotel is very centrally located in Şişli. The gym was spacious and well equipped.
The staff from the bellboys to front desk to breakfast staff were fabulous! The room was very comfortable. As I travel for business, myself or one of my team members will be back!
Prachtig hotel in goede buurt. Mooie en nette kamers, zeer uitgebreid en gevarieerd ontbijt met alle mogelijkheden om de dag perfect te starten (fruit, broodsoorten, beleg, yoghurt, ei-bereidingen), mooie gym faciliteiten met gratis water.
The Westin is a new property with efficient and attentive staff. The rooms are the standard Westin, comfortable, clean and well appointed, but nothing special. People in Turkey are warm and welcoming and this is reflected in the service the staff provides. The area around the hotel is not as upscale as Istanbul's residential areas or the area around the cruise port and Modern Art museum, but it's good, with lots and lots of shopping at various price points and a small shopping mall next to the hotel with varied restaurant and coffee shop options. The subway is literally at the hotel's doorsteps and the green line takes you directly to the University station with a relatively long walk or a 5 minute tram ride to the Hagia Sophia and the tourist area around it. Istanbul has efficient taxi service that you can reserve through Uber, nice restaurant options are a 10 minute taxi ride away.
