Top Topkapi Palace Hotel Reviews

Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul

"Dejligt tæt på alt i den gamle bydel"

The Marmara Taksim

10/10 Excellent

"amazing hotel but the staff at rooftop was really rude, and kept asking if we were staying here and refused us entry. the staff always questioned if we were actually staying here"

Four - G Hotel Premium

10/10 Excellent

Emerald Mansion Hotel – Special Class

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this boutique hotel. Very convenient to go tour the city, close to many points of interest. The staff was the best part, very helpful and always with a smile."

Ottoman Hotel Imperial - Special Class

8/10 Good

"The hotel is older and they are renovating some of the bathrooms. Ours was not one of them...however it was fine. The staff are extremely helpful and nice. The included breakfast was very good. However the restaurant was very expensive along with the bar menu. The hotel is situated on top of a high hill along a street that is reserved for pedestrians during the day. This prevents any taxis from gaining front door entrance - so we had to climb a high hill with our luggage - very exhausting. I wish the hotel had notified us of this in advance and we could have called them to have one of their electric cars pick us up. Access by taxi is available in the evening and early morning. Given the location, you are within a short walking distance to the Topkapi Palace and Cistern. All in all, the hotel served us well."

Hotel Saba Sultan

10/10 Excellent

"The location for seeing the sites in Istanbul was perfect"

Sura Hagia Sophia Hotel

8/10 Good

"It’s near of every thing I will recommend this hotel"
