After spending weeks traveling all over Turkey, we were thrilled to have booked this wonderful boutique hotel for our last three nights. The room was high ceilinged, spacious, elegant with glass walled bath, ancient tiles, a balcony overlooking the Bosphouous, clean crisp linens, slippers, L'Occitaine soaps and shampoos, simply fabulous food and drink - and a bartender who was able...

I visited the Georges Hotel restaurant last Friday and it is an incredible setting. The view is exceptional and the decor is extremely tasteful. The menu is not huge but it gives you a range of European meat, fish and other starch dishes. Coming here in the evening with the sun setting is very romantic and the atmosphere is elegant... More

Georges is a very trendy boutique hotel that's perfectly located, just a few steps from the Galata tower and near all the nightlife in Beyoglu. It's an easy walk to the ferries at Karakoy or Tophane, the Tunel stop, or to the metro. The rooftop bar/restaurant has an amazing view of the Bosphorus and the Istanbul skyline. The rooms are...

I spent a week with two colleagues in Istanbul and we used the Georges as our base in Istanbul. The upside is a trendy location, great staff, nice rooms, wonderful terrace, convenient walk to the ferry to get to the Asian side. The down side is that taxi drivers have a hard time finding the place (Which is probably down... More

Georges is a beautiful hotel but our stay there was a total train wreck - the low score reflects our experience. Some of what went wrong was undoubtedly the capriciousness of luck, but some of it boils down to issues which we felt need to be addressed. Those being noise generated within the hotel and a staff which reacts slowly... More

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Georges. The staff were excellent and always lovely and happy to answer any questions. We had a room which looked out over the Golden Horn and Bosphorus, and if you have the chance, I would definitely advise you to get one of these rooms. The view is spectacular.

Wonderful room - only 20 rooms each with a gloriously soft bed, beautiful style, fantastic bathroom. It was the perfect place for a romantic break and the breakfasts were excellent, served on the terrace looking over the Bosphorus.
