Would definitely recommend visiting Istanbul and Pera Palace above any other hotel
Pros:

The location is great if you are here for leisure. Just walking around in any of the common areas gives a feeling that your stay is an occasion, a joyful experience and you can't help but want to take your time to explore everything the hotel has to offer. The room itself isn't the biggest, but absolutely sufficient. Staff are very accommodating and almost all of them fluent in English. Breakfast was very fresh and delicious. I would definitely recommend visiting Istanbul and Pera Palace above any other hotel!

Cons:

The mattress was too soft for my liking while the pillows too firm.

Traumhaftes historisches Hotel mit Charme und Wohlfülfaktor

Einfach wow, dieses Hotel mit historischem Charme, ohne verstaubt oder zu plüschig zu sein. Überwältigende Architektur, super freundliche Hotelmitarbeitende, die es einem an nichts fehlen lassen. Absolute Empfehlung

A memorable excellent stay!
Pros:

Excellent staff environment history and location.
Efficient friendly responsive front desk and concierge ; Lin , selim, Rachel Derya and Tekin all stand out. The renovated spa was great!

Cons:

Acknowledging more the Greek history; for example in the photo of Inonu the patriarch’s name is not mentioned -and such a powerful telling photo of the glances. As this was a period of good relations it has to be celebrated..

The common areas of the hotel are beautifully presented and maintained. Staff are friendly, helpful
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent - a buffet with a very wide choice and fantastic quality. It was also very well presented and frequently refreshed.

Cons:

It was hard to control the temperature in my room.
Also the over-bath shower, over a sloping claw-foot bath, felt hazardous.
