The hotel has a superb location on a steep slope overlooking the Bosphorus near the Dolmabahce Palace. It has clearly been designed to give as many rooms as possible a view of the Bosphorus, but on the lower levels this view is obscured by trees. It seems to cater in large part to business/conference travellers. Rooms are well-sized and equipped... More

This hotel has excellent quality concerning rooms, views and a superb buffet for breakfast, one of the best. Restaurant for breakfast is located in front of the Bosphorus. Room views to the Bosphorus are partial. I disliked that wifi was charged, it was the only hotel that charged us for the internet during our trip. Location is not good for... More

Swissotel is a charming hotel with (arguably) the best views of the bosphorous. Pricey and booked/overbooked most of the time, i am now getting a bit disappointed with this place.

I stayed in the east wing and my room was a bit dated but was very clean. Air con was broken and the bed needs... More

The Swissotel the Bosphorous is big and busy, not right on the water but with excellent views of the water and across the Bosphorous, is a bit elevated and you dont have to pay for the direct-water-frontage location..and you don't need to. This Hotel has everything and more. Is well priced, has the best hammam I have experienced and one... More
