9.6/10 Exceptional! (570 reviews)
Good friendly staff, clean modern rooms, great location but the central AC was off (1st week of November) which was uncomfortable for us as had to leave window open which lead to excessive traffic noise and the odd mosquito.

8.4/10 Very Good! (1,002 reviews)
The room was clean with great views over the marmara sea and towards the asian side. Everything was ready for us when we arrived. There’s robes and slippers. The shampoo, shower gel, conditioner and lotion were all zero parabens and zero soap. We weren’t able to use the pool as it was already cold and they have closed it for the season now. We did not include breakfast with our booking as we intended to eat out for most of the stay. The location of the hotel is just one street away from istiklal street and a few minutes walk to the galata tower and area which is so busy and buzzing at night. Amazing as its very close to everything. The karakoy tram to get to sultanahmet is also short walking distance downhill. Great stay. Will be back again, hopefully when there is a bosphorus view room available.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Worth a visit if you’re interested in history and Oriental culture

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Lots of interesting artefacts. Could do with a bit more information in English and in some places the lighting was quite poor.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Good place to buy the museum card as queuses are short, then carry on up the hill to the Topapki Palace etc

4/5 - Good

Jo

Half of it is closed for renovation- but the half that's open has some very impressive exhibits.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveller

The museum is in the middle of major renovations. 80% of it is closed (and you only find out after you buy the tickets)

3/5 - Okay

Joy

A rather large part of the Museum being restored and closed to the public hence above rating.
