Great hotel and location. Has real character with shops and restaurants close by. Attractions are all 10-15 min walk away. Staff were friendly and place was clean with great facilities. Travelled with a family of 4. So we got the family room with interconnected bedrooms. Fantastic stay. Would highly recommend staying here.
The breakfast buffet was delicious. We had our room on the sixth floor and it overlooked the pretty streets down below. The location of this hotel is fantastic where everything was within walking distance. The hotel staff were so helpful and nice. We would definitely come back to this hotel the next time we visit Istanbul.
The hotel was close to the attractions and public transportation. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful in recommending restaurants and the best way get around. The room was clean and large
The staff were great. Friendly and helpful. Everyone was willing to help and anticipated our needs. The cafe terrace was loses but the 4th floor rooms had a quaint balcony with a partial water view. Breakfast was good Over stay at $230 a good value in a charming neighborhood close to the sites
Close to major sights and attraction within Cultural Centre. Facilities little dated and some in need of attention or renovation. WiFi was super weak and sometimes nonexistent. Staff very friendly and helpful the highlight.
This property was excellent. So helpful, friendly, and dependable for a solo female traveler. I loved the view from the tiny one-step-out balcony of the Roman hippodrome wall. Don't miss having a coffee and dessert on the rooftop overlooking the Bosphorus and the city. Highly recommend.
Clean, comfortable, and charming, this hotel was wonderfully quiet while still within easy walking distance of many of Istanbul’s major sights and attractions. The staff was friendly and accommodating and helped arrange several excursions that I really enjoyed - the Bosphorus yacht tour and the dervish performance were standouts. The rooftop bar has an excellent view and great food. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and highly recommend it.
Helpful and friendly staff. My room did not connected to elevator floor, the staff helped us bring up luggage.
Breakfast was a Ok, and it was free.
Room’s bath room needed to be update, there was black stains around Edges of bath tub. But it has very good and full enclosed shower inside the tube, no water splashing out.
Hotel Amira was a wonderful choice for our stay in Istanbul. The location was perfect and within easy reach of all the major sights, which made exploring the city incredibly convenient.
The staff was one of the highlights of our stay. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and extremely efficient. Whenever we needed something, it was taken care of right away—you never felt like you were waiting. By the end of our stay, we felt like we knew everyone, which gave the hotel such a warm and personal atmosphere.
Our room was great, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Between the excellent location and genuinely wonderful staff, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend Hotel Amira.
The location to sightseeing is excellent. We can't say enough about how helpful and friendly the staff are. Front desk provided help numerous times, from dinner suggestions to directions to our restaurant I'd booked 1 hour away by ferry. Nice room and decent breakfast offered in the morning. Would recommend to fellow travelers and would stay here again.
Great hotel near the all of the major attractions. Plenty of great restaurants in the area as well. Rooms were very clean and hotel staff was friendly. They were also very helpful in helping us figure out the best way to get around and places to go. Overall would highly recommend staying here.
