Pros:

From the moment we arrived the staff was amazing. They go above and beyond for you. The level of service here is incredible. The hotel lobby is gorgeous with its massive mable pillars inside and has great places to relax and admire the architectural details. The rooms are big and well decorated inside. The bed was comfortable with lovely sheets and pillows. The breafast buffet had everything you could want with a spectacular view of the harbor. It's walking distance to the Blue mosque, grand bazaar, and many restaurants. I will definitely stay here again on my next visit. Other hotel should take note on the level of service that AJWA gives for a true 5 star experience 👌

Pros:

Room was great, bed a little creaky and bathroom door didn’t close fully so water would drip out of the shower but otherwise everything was excellent. Breakfast was also great with an amazing view

The staff were so lovely and accommodating. Everyone was genuinely kind, and wanting to help us whenever needed. The spa facilities were great. We even got complimentary breakfast to our room on the day we were leaving early in the morning. Staff communication was impeccable, lovely to meet everyone and hope to return soon. The hotel is close to all places you’d want to visit. The cleaning staff were also very sweet. 10/10

Pros:

From our arrival to our checkout, the hotel and staff were outstanding! Pleasant, unhurried, and very helpful.
The breakfast addition to our booking was an excellent value: beautiful and carefully prepared food with great service. The dining room has an expansive view of the City and harbor area.
Excellent dining directly across the street — Mivan has a great variety of savory local foods.
This is a highly recommended property. I would definitely stay here again!

The staff make the experience here fabulous, the majority of the time the staff were amazing. There were a few language barriers which meant we were overcharged for in room service but nothing too much. The whole decor and atmosphere of the whole was wonderful. We regretted not using the restaurant and will deffo stay here again next time we're in Istanbul. The pool, sauna and steam room were fab!
