Estambul beautiful
Pros:

Me gustó donde está ubicada tienes cerca muchas cosas importantes. El desayuno era básico y estaba bueno. Los recepcionistas han sido muy amables.

Cons:

No me gustó es la calle tú vuelves el hotel y todas las personas de los restaurantes que le rodean no paran de insistir a que vengas a comer aunque le has rechazado previamente, llega un punto que cansa.

Istanbul April 2026
Pros:

Good stay overall, mainly due to the excellent location—within walking distance of major attractions, bazaars, and plenty of great restaurants. The hotel also helped organise city tours and airport transfers, and the staff were very friendly and accommodating.

Overall, a good choice for those prioritising location and convenience.

Cons:

On the downside, breakfast was adequate but lacked variety, the room floor was consistently warm (likely due to being above the kitchen), drinking water wasn’t provided, and the bed was slightly uneven

Pros:

Tökéletes vendéglátás, kiváló reggeli, hatalmas masszázs kád a fürdőszobába felár nélkül, és külön terasz a reggeli kávézáshoz.
Otthonos légkör, barátságos, figyelmes, segítőkész személyzet. Minden nap takarítás, tiszta törölköző. Remek helyen a Kék Mecset közelében.

Go with a standard room
Pros:

We appreciated the staff and the location.

Cons:

The room was not clean. We booked the studio with "private" terrace but we needed to cross a small corridor in order to arrive the the terrace. Still, the terrace was not usable since it was full of dirt, no pillows, nothing like in the pictures. Also, the spa bathtub was full of dirt, when we turned on the jacuzzi the dirt started to flush out. For a three nights they cleaned our room just once. We paid a very big price for a minimum comfort.

Pros:

Locatie, centraal gelegen in de oude stad.

Cons:

Kamers: foto's komen niet overeen met werkelijkheid. Dat betreft de 'de luxe kamers'. Het ontbijt was sober.

Consigliatissimo Hotel al corno d'oro! Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo
Pros:

Ottima zona, in pieno corno d'oro a due passi dalla moschea blu, da Santa Sofia e dal Tram (che funziona benissimo con la Istanbul card che si fa in edicola). Personale molto disponibile, camera perfetta e accogliente con colazione tipica turca ma anche opzioni continental, e ristorante (come quasi tutti gli hotel) convenzionato al piano terra. Il giorno della partenza ci hanno prenotato il trasferimento all'aeroporto e ci hanno preparato una colazione in anticipo solo per noi perchè partivamo prima dell'orario standard. Consigliatissimo, se dovessimo tornare a Istanbul torneremo. Rapporto qualità prezzo quasi imbattibile!

Cons:

Abbiamo avuto un problema con la doccia che non scaricava bene, senza nemmeno dire niente ce lo hanno sistemato durante il servizio in camera

Camere pulite, personale gentile e posizione ottima.
Pros:

Ho soggiornato in questo hotel e mi sono trovata bene: camere pulite, personale gentile e posizione perfetta, a soli 5 minuti a piedi dalla Moschea Blu. La colazione è un po’ limitata, ma considerando il prezzo conveniente, il rapporto qualità‑prezzo è davvero ottimo. Consigliato.
