Pros:

The Peninsula Istanbul is an excellent hotel. The wings maintain a high classical standard, but the main building with the reception area would benefit from an update. Service by the pool is outstanding, especially from one of the staff members from Hong Kong who studied at a hotel program in Switzerland – the service level was truly exceptional.

The breakfast staff were very friendly, but service was slow despite the restaurant not being full. The rooms were good, as was the gym, although the hotel lacks some machines for abdominal and back training, and the treadmills need to be replaced.

The indoor pool and spa facilities are of the highest standard. Overall, The Peninsula Istanbul is a hotel that can definitely be recommended.

Superb hospitality from start to finish.
Pros:

Fantastic. Lovely property any a true refuge from the fast, crowded pulse of the beautiful big city of Istanbul. Having the pool after a day of sight seeing or shopping was very enjoyable and relaxing. The spa was beautiful and the trainer in the gym was extremely nice and helpful! The concierge team was so helpful. Superb staff throughout from checkin to checkout!

Pros:

It is an excellent stay,the hardware and service are immaculate. I am very grateful to the team of the hotel. Every one is very kind and accommodating, they gave us early check in and late check out.Even I didn’t mention my wife’s birthday they noticed it and sent a birthday cake with handwritten card to her. So far it is the best hotel we had ever stayed

Excellent hotel directly on the Bosphorus, with a beautiful promenade and close to many restaurants. The only downside is that the front of the hotel is always crowded and there’s too much traffic.”

Pros:

Our stay at The Peninsula Istanbul was an unforgettable experience of pure luxury and hospitality. The hotel is breathtaking-elegant, refined, and designed with incredible attention to detail. Every space, from the stunning lobby to the tranquil spa, feels thoughtfully curated.

Our high-tech room was beautifully appointed, blending cutting-edge convenience with comfort and style. The staff throughout the hotel were warm, professional, and genuinely welcoming, striking the perfect balance between high-end service and friendly charm.

A real highlight was the complimentary chauffeur-driven car, a beautiful and convenient way to explore the local area - just one of many thoughtful touches that set this hotel apart.

The hammam treatment was sublime, leaving us completely relaxed, while the pool and spa area were both visually stunning and deeply calming. Dining at the hotel’s restaurant was a delight, with delicious food and impeccable service.

From start to finish, The Peninsula Istanbul exceeded every expectation. A perfect blend of luxury, warmth, and world-class service - highly recommended.
