The food in here is like no other! The staters are amazing and really genuine, full of taste and great spices. There’s also some nice wine and drinks. The service was amazing, our Waiter Mehmet was the best and made sure we have a unique experience. If you’re visiting Istanbul, this place should be on top of your priorities!

Pros: Great Garbo room very nice, spacious, good soundproofing despite nearby highway, food and drink tasty and reasonable, bar and terrace comfortable. Interesting historic building. Good location, near shopping and restaurants and fun night life. Cons: horrible door staff, never said hello or do you need a taxi? just stood around crowding the very small entrance. Same with front desk staff, not helpful or friendly. concierges very snooty or inexperienced. Me: Can you arrange a city tour? Concierge: (with a sneer) I can book a private car and driver. Me: What would we see? Concierge: depends on lines and crowds. afternoon tea a crowded, noisy scene. not relaxing at all.

Felt like you are actually staying old palace. Must see and stay place for Agatha Christi fan. Also I was determined to stay there after watching Netflix series on this hotel. Excellent and courteous service w details. Channing lady ready to clean your room immediately ( does not happen even expensive hotel in US these days. Labor shortage). Bar has great 😊 of worldly atmosphere. Spa body scrub is just incredible. Never had anything like this. I had spa treatment in many places. But this one tops very high on my lists. Very professional. Breakfast buffet is good you can order eggs as you like to waiters no 🍳 station. But you can ask. I stayed there 3 days and now in Bodrum ( beach ). I will go back there 3 days more. Manager wrote me welcome letter beautifully Great location. A lot of night time activists near by. Restaurants and shops …

We had a lovely stay in this historica hotel. The room was large and comfortable. A special thank you to Evren Esen the Concierge Manager and to Emrullah Akkurt that offered exceptional service. We did not enjoy the high tea but it looked absolutely terrific when we watched them set up. We split our stay in Istanbul into two different hotels in different parts of the city. This worked out very well. I am very happy we made this choice as part of our itinerary..breakfast also very good.

The hotel isn’t what it used to be. I was shocked actually - I think it probably is under different management. The rooms were beautiful and food was fine. When we checked in there was a huge queue of people in front of the hotel waiting to see the Ataturk museum. The lobby was chaotic and there were photo sessions in the hallway I’m front of my door. The security tried to prevent the intrusion on guests but didn’t do a very good job.But what the worst thing was is the internet is cheap and awful. It didn’t work and when I asked them to fix it - their attitude was ‘ oh we know, we’ll move you’. I said ‘we’ll why did you put me there in the first place. Weird attitude. When I checked back in on my way home for four nights I decided to get a different room and it worked but still very poor! Honestly in this day and age and with all the competition, I don’t understand. I won’t be staying there again. …
