Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul

10/10 Excellent

"I would like to thank the following employees They went beyond my expectations Huseyin Engin Efe Aldemor Zeynep Kiaikaavdor And front desk at the residence when I checked out"

The Ritz-Carlton, Istanbul

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing great staff. Will be back"

Nuru Ziya Residence

8/10 Good

"The staffs, Ms. Sahel (receptionist) was very pleasant, sweet, excellent, very helpful and accommodating, thank you. Mr. Rames was great and eager to help with handling my luggage at checked in & out, always smiling. The breakfast was great with lots of selections. The best part is a short walk to Taksim Square. The worst part is very noisy, cars are in & out at all hours on the tiny road and people stay up talking, hanging out past 4am on Thursday and Friday! Bring your earplug!"

Pera Palace Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is a beautiful, historical landmark located in a great part of town. I was underwhelmed with the level of service. We were given a room on the first floor knowing there would be a huge wedding that night with music blasting until very late at night. We enquired about a scale and they said there was one in the room which was incorrect. They told us they’d send one but it never happened. We had to go back and ask for one ourselves and the attitude seemed to be of annoyance. We asked for a calf-hour late checkout and were told…NO! We were initially excited to stay in such a beautiful place but were very turned off by the service level."

Rixos Pera Istanbul - Nickelodeon Play Access

10/10 Excellent

"Good hotel, well placed just on the edge of the main Taksim strip - easy to walk into the pedestrian high street, but can still get a taxi straight up to the hotel. Close to all amenities. Clean, tidy, well looked after. Staff were incredibly warm, helpful & very diligent. Frequently visit Istanbul & would definitely visit this hotel again."
