Warm and friendly experience.
Pros:

Well located and comfortable hotel with a bit of older style charm and beautiful internal decoration. Warm and inviting the hotel staff were really helpful and recommended some really nice places to eat, drink and shop. While the roof top restaurant was being renovated the breakfast room was really warm and provided an excellent breakfast to start each day. Overall a good experience. Close to the mosques, palace and other attractions that make Istanbul unique.

Excellent location and professional staff- shame the terrace was closed.
Pros:

Location excellent. Flatbreads made to order at breakfast were a nice surprise and the breakfast generally was very good. Staff were very helpful and friendly - provided map and lots of advice re places to see, taxi fares etc

Cons:

Room was a bit dated but disappointingly the roof terrace bar/restaurant was closed due to water damage. If we'd known in advance, we'd have switched to one of the many other hotels with a roof terrace. Not their fault of course.

Cutest Hotel right in the middle of Istanbul!!
Pros:

Such a cute hotel right in the middle of Istanbul!! The Staff was awesome!! Whatever question or request we had, they answered it with kindness and respect, and we had a lot of questions!! Their daily breakfast was unbelievable! They had anything and everything you can imagine! They even had a lady making by hand “gözleme” everyday, filled with meat or cheese!! We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!!

Prime Location at Hotel Amira
Pros:

We had a great stay at Hotel Amira. The staff are kind, attentive and always willing to assist. Breakfasts are a full spread, catering for all. Exellent position, near to attractions, all within walking distance. Pity the Terrance was closed for renovations, but we found alternative comfortable eateries and places nearby. Rooms are very comfortable. A great central location from where Istanbul can be explored. Thanks to all the staff. A great stay.

Pros:

Good location

Cons:

We changed from a 4 day stay to a 3cday stay and we ended up paying for 7 days. Do not book any trips via the hotel a lot cheaper using outside vendors

A good value hotel in a convenient location near major attractions.
Pros:

Great location. Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was good

Cons:

Rooms were a little noisy and we had an issue with mould in our original booking. But staff were extremely apologetic and moved us to an upgraded room at no extra charge.
