"Out of all the hotel staff I’ve met during my travels, he was by far the kindest. Despite the rain and the early morning hour, he still came out with an umbrella and walked with us—honestly, it felt like a savior had appeared in that moment. From before the trip, throughout our stay, and even after we checked out, he went above and beyond to help us with every little detail. Thanks to him, our impression of Istanbul and Türkiye became incredibly positive. Thank you so, so much. If I ever visit...

Top French Palace Hotel Reviews

Richmond Istanbul

8/10 Good

"Petit-déjeuner et hôtel central"

Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul

4/10 Poor

"The restaurant and cafe staff seemed unhappy and the level of service was poor. Only liked the room and bathroom is decent, however had no bath tub or dressing table to get ready. Spa facilities are great. Overall wouldn’t stay again, wasn’t welcomed or made feel special for our wedding anniversary. Has a good Indian restaurant called Madhu’s but the staff doesn’t understand basic English. Poor service too."

The Marmara Taksim

8/10 Good

"Great location right in the heart of Taksim. Our room had an amazing view, which was definitely the highlight of our stay. While the room was a bit small for two people, the stunning view more than made up for it. A special thank you to our housekeeper, Bedriye, who was incredibly kind and kept our room spotless every day. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back!"

Pera Palace Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel building itself is beautiful as is the internal communal areas like the lounge, which hosts afternoon tea, and staircases to access the rooms. The electric lift is wonderful, very historic and still in full working order as we gratefully experienced. The staff were all pleasant yet slightly robotic in their approach to interaction. Our room was perfectly adequate (wouldn’t want to relax for extended periods in it) and had great views of the city and Bosphorus from the balcony so long as you overlooked the loud, busy road beneath. The high ceiling in the room really helped offset the overall square footage of the room to give it a more spacious feeling. The hotel is in a good location with many tourist sites in walking distance. Plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants in the immediate vicinity. Apart from slight wear and tear and dated fixtures like the rugs in corridors, breakfast was a letdown. Given we had just had an exceptional breakfast in a true five star hotel in Istanbul the day before, the bar was high but unfortunately couldn’t nearly be matched. There was a large enough breakfast buffet spread but it didn’t feel or taste high quality. The fact only eggs could be ordered off an invisible menu was very disappointing and having to make a specialty coffee yourself from a machine is not 5 star. We did not go for breakfast the second morning and headed out the hotel for it. Overall, the Pera Palace must not rest on its history alone to satisfy customers. "

DeCamondo Galata, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Be cautious when booking this hotel if you are looking for a good night's sleep. The room was not soundproof which they acknowledged when moving us to another room. The noise was constant throughout the day and night. There is a wine bar directly below the hotel, a rooftop bar above, a busy tourist route outside, regular prayer calls, and numerous stray cats in the area caterwauling all night. As a result, sleep quality was extremely poor during our stay. Breakfast was disappointing, with eggs often served cold. Communication with staff was also frustrating. Many staff members appeared to have limited English, but were reluctant to acknowledge this, which led to repeated misunderstandings and unnecessary frustration. The location may suit those who want to be in the heart of the action, but for anyone who values rest and comfort, the constant noise makes it difficult to relax or sleep properly."
