I just returned from a wonderful 3 nights stay at the Ritz and I must say it is simply the best in Istanbul. And I have already stayed at Swissotel, W and Four Seasons there, and nothing compares. Spacious Rooms, Hotel Luxury, fantastic spa and indoor pool, and unsurpassed customer service make the Ritz Carlton Istanbul very special. I know... More

we spent 8 days in this hotel and were very pleased with the service of the hotel....and the staff also were very very helpful ....as my husband had run out of his medicines for taking insulin ...they arranged to get it for him...which would have been impossible for us to do in Turkey....and i don't know of how many other...

Booking my week long holiday in Istanbul in 2009 required some deliberation bcs of the number of choices Istanbul offers in terms of good hotels in the expensive yet affordable category. I was a bit apprehensive about the location of the hotel after reading some Trip Advisor reviews and these proved to be accurate. The only major negative point about... More

Well located on the hill leading up to Taksim and Nisantasi, The Ritz Carlton remains one of Istanbul's best deluxe hotels. Service is impeccable in every way, and rooms with views of the Bospherous are spectacular. Corner and front Bospherous rooms are very roomy and the suites are bigger and more comfortable than you could want. The buffet breakfast is... More

Entering the lobby you are greeted with luxurious Ottoman charm, Turkish delights, and tea. The food is exquisite (don't miss the brunch!!), bar/lounge tasteful, and spa relaxing (make sure to get a traditional massage). What makes the hotel unparalleled is the personal service of the staff. We stayed a full week and the concierge helped us plan each day visiting... More

We stayed at the Ritz Isranbul to combine business with a quick family getaway. First of all, if you want four star service and four star surroundings, I would recommend the Four seasons on the Bosporus or the four seasons in the old city. The ritz is located across the bridge in taksim square and the hotel itself is located... More

From the moment of arriving into the lobby, we were greeted with snacks and hot drinks prior to checking-in. This was the start of an unparalleled service that lasted for the duration of our stay. The conference facilities were great, the food was delicious and varied and the rooms were very well equipped with bath & shower and one of... More

This hotel deserves its 5-Star rating and then a few more stars on top of that for the quality of its staff. The hotel location is great (only a few minute walk from the tram that takes you to most points of interest) and the rooms are generously sized. What sets the hotel apart is its staff, which went above-and-beyond... More

Stayed for 2 nights just before Christmas (although booked in for 4 nights). Nice: Great staff (concierge - Cenk Caner - and restaurant staff, in particular), amazing breakfast choice - I have not seen such an array of delights before! Spa, Not-so-nice: slightly remote in a windswept plaza and a trek to Taksim given local taxis normally refuse such a... More
