We had an air conditioned Deluxe Room for our two night stay in early May 2012, which was quiet and comfortable. We arrived early morning and were able to go straight to the room. The Front Desk Manager, Sezai DOGAN, was very pleasant, hospitable and helpful, as were all the staff, and "Kadir" provided a wonderful first-time Turkish Bath experience... More

we booked this hotel as a top secret hotel and appart from the area it was a big dissapointment . It was not worth the price we payed. The only saving grace were the staff especially Baran Yatcim who was always friendly and informative. A lot of the managers and Front desk staff could learn to smile it would make... More

We booked this hotel through lastminute.com as a top secret hotel and were very disappointed. The booking made was for a 'comfortable double with street view' but we were given a room in the old wing of the hotel, which was very small and had a double and a single bed in it, leaving hardly any room for our luggage....

I needed a place to stay for just half a night, and picked this one for its attractive price. It has an excellent location in the historic district of European Istanbul, a walking distance from many attractions, and right in the middle of a street full of (touristy) restaurants, bars, and other hotels. Reception was inefficient and made me wait... More

04/25 to 04/28 What a nice break from working in the Middle East! I have traveled a lot in the last two years and this is one of the nicer places I have stayed--have a major chain platinum card. The BH&S is an older hotel (Special Class) and in a very historic part of town. Most of the major sites... More

We really enjoyed staying at the Byzantium Hotel and Suites for 4 nights on part of our honeymoon. The location was great! Although its in a pretty 'touristy area' all hot spots are walkable. We even walked across the bridge to the other side - towards Taksim Square. (although you could taxi...we don't mind walking) Literally 300 meters from the... More

Wanting to experience a Turkish bath, but hesitant to bare all in a public setting, I chose to use the facilities at the Byzantium Hotel. They choice was based on location and reputation of the hotel. I tried to make the reservation via the internet, but when I showed up early to see if they had received it there was... More

Really Exellent location, a quick step to the Blu Mosque , Hagia Sophia, and Topkapi museum, also close to Dedi Effendi house. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially Ordan & shaaheen i think. Make Sure you get the sea view room or the slighlty bigger rooms, Dont book the tiny room. Thanks More
