I absolutely loved my stay at Barceló Istanbul, but the true highlight was the bathroom — more precisely, the in-room hamam. I couldn’t get enough of it! The heated marble, the sheer spaciousness, the luxurious feel… it’s pure indulgence and unlike anything I’ve experienced in a hotel before. Housekeeping deserves a special mention — top-notch service, incredibly attentive, and always thoughtful in the smallest details. The spa on the top floor is another world entirely. The hamam experience there, combined with the massages, is simply unforgettable. Barceló Istanbul is the definition of modern comfort meeting authentic Turkish luxury. I’d go back in a heartbeat.
