we stayed in the blue mosque suit. The room is very comfortable and the view is of the mosque is fantastic. There is a very large terrace, and it's a lovely place to enjoy a meal from the hotel's room service. This is the first hotel I have stayed at in Istanbul where the service has been good and you...

This hotel had very comfortable rooms, with plenty of cupboard space which means your stuff can be readily stored, out of sight. The rooms are are pleasantly decorated. We had a balcony but it was a bit chilly to sit out much when we were there. It contributed to a feeling of spaciousness however. The bathroom had a lovely large... More

We arranged to be collected at the airport, at time of booking and again via email before boarding our flight to Istanbul, yet there was some confusion. We waited at the airport for nearly 40 minutes, and were not met with anyone who was there to collect us. We called the hotel after acquiring a Turkish sim card, and only... More

Seraglio was excellently located, we were about a 3 minute walk from the Blue Mosque, 5 minutes from Topkapi Palace,10 minutes from the Grand Bazaar, and about 20 minutes from the Spice market and the harbour. The staff were very helpful, as soon as we got there the receptionist gave us a map and told us where to visit and... More

My husband and I just returned from our first trip to Istanbul in late May. Perfect hotel in a wonderful city! First and most important, the staff was the best. They couldn't have been more helpful or accommodating. Great room with a balcony and a very comfy bed. We stayed five nights and found the location to be just right.... More

It's a very clean, comfortable, and reasonably priced hotel within a few minutes walk from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia. The reception staff are very friendly and the food at the street-level restaurant is wonderful. The only wish of mine not fulfilled is that it doesn't have a rooftop to overlook the landmarks nearby, but the comfort of stay... More

We really enjoyed this hotel. We stayed 3 nights and everything was great. The old town location was marvelous and so was the staff who were helpful in every regard. The breakfasts were delicious, and the one dinner we had there was excellent also. I would definitely choose this hotel on a return visit.

Just got back after spending three nights at Seraglio. We were in a standard double room which was well appointed with a clean bathroom and large comfortable double bed. Very friendly service from the reception staff especially Jalal, good advice regarding transportation (including arranging airport-hotel transfers) and things to see and do. Breakfast (excellent choice on the buffet) and teatime... More

Our first visit to Istanbul and the hotel staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful. Can't wait to stay there again. The breakfasts are a treat with a lot of choice and everything spotlessly clean. Do try the bistro because the food is very good and much better value for money than the nearby restaurants. We found the... More
