We stayed in Istanbul for 11 nights. We have stayed at boutiques in Istanbul and knew we wanted a larger room than some offer. Our room at the Hotel Niles was just right. The room and everywhere in the hotel was immaculate and every staff person we encountered was smiling and helpful. The location was within walking distance to the historic locations in Istanbul, so when we didn't have a specific plan, we could just wander and marvel at the sights. We've only been gone for 2 days and I already miss the breakfast, my simit and feta - yum! And you can't beat the price. My local family was impressed, too. We will return!

Hotel's Favorite
Hotel Niles is a lovely small boutique hotel placed in excellent position to walk to most of the famous attractions that Istanbul has to offer and shopping that leaves you amazed! It has been renovated in a traditional style to a high standard. My room was perfect - clean and comfortable. The air conditioner was effective. The staff were all friendly and helpful at all times. The roof terrace is a pleasant place where you have breakfast but can use day and night - the night lights are quite lovely to see. I will definitely stay there again and can recommend to my friends.

This hotel is very good. It is centrally located near grand bazaar and tram station. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Very friendly welcome. Rooms very clean and shower is good. Only down side is slightly dated decor and no view from our room. It was not huge but big enough for us.

From the moment we entered we were greeted Very warmly. After we were offered tea we were shown to our rooms. Rooms are very charming. I was in the basic single room and it was spacious and well decorated. Everything was very clean, bed was comfortable and linens clean and nice. We were also shown the beautiful rooftop bar/ breakfast area. The best part of the stay were the wonderful staff. They were kind and genuinely wanted to help and make your stay all that it should be. Location was spot on. We were able to walk to almost all attractions. Lucked out picking this hotel. Reasonable priced for a great hotel experience.

The staff was very helpful and attentive. The facilities were well cared for. The roof top bar and free breakfast was also excellent. When we needed help with anything someone was there. It is in the old section of Istanbul and within walking distance of things you want to see and restaurants to dine at. Our junior suite had a nice size balcony to sit down for coffee and enjoy the atmosphere. Just an unbelievable experience.

My husband and I stayed at the Niles Hotel and loved it. When we first checked in we were met with friendly, courteous staff who brought us hot apple tea and Turkish delight. Our room was clean and cozy. We loved the rooftop terrace where we ate a wonderful breakfast each morning. The views were lovely, and it was great that the terrace was open 24/7. The location was perfect. You are right near a tram station, and a 20 minute walk from all the major sights. We highly recommend this hotel!!

Lovely people. Lovely accommodation. Halil, chef of the Terrace cafe and bar on the rooftop, prepares a beautiful breakfast for us every morning. Rooms are tidy. Not a cookie cutter hotel, located near the Grand Bazaar.

What better way to settle in after a long flight to a (at that point for me) a foreign country than being welcomed at this cozy yet charming boutique hotel. Ertan very pleasantly checked us in, providing helpful information about our stay and about the services that we can avail of. Whatever initial apprehension or awkwardness we may have felt from being in a new country, Ertan made us quickly feel comfortable while patiently answering all our questions and offering us apple teas that we all just loved. The lovely sitting rooms by the front desk prepares you to the grandeur that you will see once you walk around Istanbul. The beds are very comfortable and the room has all the necessities that we expected. The water pressure of the shower is great and we had no problem with getting hot water at any time (I've had previous experiences at other hotels where there were issues with the showers either not having enough water pressure or getting hot water consistently). The hotel is just a couple of blocks from the nearest tram station which, by itself, is already a very big positive. Though conveniently located near a main road where shops may still be open very late, the streets around the hotel are quiet at night. We always felt safe walking back even if very late at night. The hotel is close to many of the attractions that people visiting would want to go to. You can either walk (through a bustling area full of shops and interesting things to look at) or take the tram (two short tram stops) to the Sultanahmet Square/Hagia Sophia/Blue Mosque/Basilica Cistern area. What makes the Hotel Niles really special (especially if newly visiting Istanbul) are the very helpful, patient, welcoming staff! Ertan helped us quickly arrange a couple of reservations. He's always checking on us when he sees us if we need anything or just to ask us how we are doing. Oguz, the Front Desk guy at night, helped us to not get into an overpriced cab ride and arranged for us a properly meter-using taxi. Housekeeping maintained our rooms very well every day. Gurhan was very pleasant and attentive when we saw him in the restaurant bar. He always has a ready smile for us, which we always appreciate especially being new to a place where we did not know anyone. A very special mention deservedly goes to Halil and Muhammet. Having a great breakfast at the rooftop terrace always makes us get ready for the full day of walking around the city and Halil does an amazing job every morning. He prepares such a delicious set of breakfast food that we look forward to partaking every morning even if we had a very late night out previously. Aside from preparing the delicious food, he would take time to go around the restaurant to make sure everyone is well taken care of, stopping by the tables to check on us. He would also several times come with special surprise treats (teas, specially prepared eggs) that we truly appreciate every morning. In addition, he is a very pleasant and fun guy that you would want to greet you (with his delicious food) to start your morning right. Meanwhile, the hotel's rooftop bar is open 24/7 so that was a very great amenity especially whenever we had trouble sleeping due to jet lag. And Muhammet is always there to take care of us. He is a one-of-a-kind, special barkeep, top-notch. More than his very competent way of doing his job well, he seems to genuinely provide a personal service to every guest. Always smiling and pleasant, he is very helpful and personable--definitely beats the services being provided by those at high-end bars or clubs. He was great at listening to our questions, very respectful, and very helpful at providing guidance or information to us (where to shop specific things, what else to visit, how to navigate different areas of Istanbul). We followed his tips and advice, feeling more confident or assured and had better experiences doing so. He is also very approachable and has very good communication skills. It was great learning about Istanbul and more of the Turkish culture just from having night caps at the hotel's rooftop bar. He dutifully and very competently does his work while making sure he takes care of every guest there who may be there even if very late at night. Definitely had a great time learning from him about Istanbul and about other places to visit in his country. He sincerely is interested about the people he's talking to and that's great. Like having a new friend in a foreign country... It is what makes traveling really special, more than just seeing the beautiful sites and attractions. All in all, the hotel with its charm, its location, and especially its hard working yet very friendly, competent, and helpful staff is what makes Hotel Niles a perfect place to stay at whenever you're in Istanbul. The next time we go to Istanbul, it will feel like we will be meeting up and staying with friends when we stay again at Hotel Niles. We got lucky that we picked it as our hotel on our first visit to the city!…

We really had a great time staying in Hotel Niles. It is a well maintained boutique hotel. Location is near the historical sites in Istanbul. Entrance to the Grand Bazaar and tram station is short walking distance. Hotel staff members are all friendly and very accommodating! Upon arrival, they offered us apple tea which I’m obsessed with! Ertan made sure we have all info to venture out! He even made our Hammam reservations 😄. Halil made sure that we have our delicious breakfast before heading out. All food served are home cooked by him! When you want to gonout at night and experience the Istanbul nightlife, Oguz is there to help arrange your transportation. He was very helpful with us! When we are done for the day and we need to have a nightcap in their terrace, Muhammet and Gurhan are there to make our drinks! BTW, terrace is open 24hrs! I highly recommend staying in Hotel Niles!…
