Would endorse most of the other reviews of the Orient Express, in particular the friendly helpful staff and the standard of cleanliness as well as the excellent location in the historical quarter of Istanbul. Room was a little small but it was the low ceilings that probably emphasised the size along with the minibar/fridge that made access to the window... more

We arrived on 13th June to be met by Ceren, the Guest Relations Manager, as well as a very friendly receptionist. Over a welcome drink, and while the receptionist sorted out our room and paperwork, Ceren gave us a very helpful introduction to the hotel and the surrounding attractions. We then went to our room (703 on the top bedrooms... more

The hotel is ideally situated between the major historical sites, the Grand Bazaar and the Ferry Terminal. Small, but perfectly formed with 8 rooms on 7 floors, a swimming pool in the basement and a good restaurant, with a fantastic view on the roof. the space for clothes is strictly limited but adequate for a short visit. The staff are... more

We booked over the internet at The Orient Express Hotel web site for 4 nights for the beginning of our independent Turkey holiday. We were met at the airport as arranged. On arrival to the hotel, we were welcomed by Ediz and Ali, and a cup of hot apple tea. Ediz gave us helpful information and maps of what to... more

Great staff at this hotel!! Everyone was very kind and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and welcome. One front desk gentleman even tried to help us track down the head of the Orthodox church in Istanbul!! (This was something on our agenda requested by my mother in law). This seemed to be a far fetched... more

This was the first time I've deliberately returned to the same hotel and what a good decision that was. A great hotel in a brilliant position. Everything other reviewers have said about the friendly staff is true. The breakfast is exceptional both with regards to choice and quality. The roof top restaurant has amazing views over the Bosphorus, excellent food... more
