Wonderful experience staying with the Sergüzeçt Otel. They were the perfect start to each morning (especially that amazing breakfast spread!) and the perfect close to each evening.

Highlights include the amazing communication with the host who helped me find all the correct timetables to arrive and leave the island. Also, don't forget to stay for dinner at their adjacent café. That culinary team know how to do a fish! And that cheesecake was to die for 🤤

Looking forward already to my next stay on the island.

A true hidden gem on Büyükada!

From the moment we arrived, Manager Hakan was so welcoming and attentive. The hotel has a very warm, charming atmosphere. Our room was spacious with a superb view, and the courtyard where breakfast is served is absolutely delightful — full of beautiful plants, cozy seating, and a relaxed vibe.

Breakfast was amazing, with fresh and delicious options, including freshly made blintzes, which were a real highlight. The location is perfect — close to everything yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful.

One of my personal highlights was the mother cat and her two kittens living in the courtyard. The owners care deeply for them, feeding and looking after them with such kindness and compassion. It made the hotel feel even more special and heartwarming.

The combination of great food, fair pricing, kind service, and a welcoming atmosphere makes this hotel a wonderful find. The garden, the people, the animals — everything came together to create one of the most memorable stays I’ve had.

I will definitely be coming back! 🌸🐾

A peaceful place, amazing dishes, and great service. The octopus was one of the best I’ve ever had, and the seabass was also wonderful! We really enjoyed the food and the calm atmosphere, without crowds of people. The garden is truly very beautiful.

Amazing 👏 place, wonderful experience ❤️ Clean rooms, very tasty breakfast 😋, owner is super helpful! Not so far from a beach as well! Sonya is super kind and helpful, our stay was really good! I recommend this place if you want quality rest 💜

An absolute gem.
The island is quiet but full of life and beauty and the Sergüzeşt Otel is a testament to just that.

The rooms are beautiful - the neighborhood friendly and the staff is just so so so kind.
It is a hard world out there and there is nothing hard about this place unless you have 2 heavy bags and insist on the top floor.

The restaurant is wonderful and makes the case to never leave and the breakfast coffees a tad addictive.

Cannot rave enough about my stay and especially appreciate the help of Sonia who is a literal queen.

If im in turkey - ill be here.

Nice hotel with lovely outdoor garden seating, OK value for money. 7/10

Pros:

We stayed 2 nights at this cute small hotel on the island located on a side street approx. 10 mins from the port. It is a bit of a steep walk to the hotel but we got used to it pretty quickly. It was quick to walk to nearby restaurants and shops.

The room was a nice mix modern and old, with picturesque stained glass windows in the bathroom. The room was fairly clean and spacious (although the bathroom/shower is very small). The best feature in the hotel is the outdoor garden which was really pleasant to sit and relax in, and we chose to eat dinner one night there as well (food was pretty good!) As my girlfriend and I are fond of animals, we also liked the neighbourhood cats that would visit the restaurant. Lastly, the staff were very friendly and helpful too, which is always important!

Cons:

In general, we were a bit let down by Büyükada Island, compared to the main parts of Istanbul where we stayed for the rest of our trip. The surrounding area near the hotel is not the most picturesque, and there was far less to do on the island than we realised. Even the beaches are quite poor for swimming (high entrance fees, dirty water, poor facilities, etc). So I suppose our slightly negative experience is mostly not down to the hotel.

With that said, I did have a few criticisms of the hotel. Breakfast was a bit limited in terms of food/drink (e.g. no juice or anything for non-tea/coffee drinkers). Also, if you choose to eat at the restaurant for lunch/dinner, you may struggle to find options if you are vegetarian (though this seems to be the case for most of the restaurants we visited in Istanbul). Lastly, the bathroom was quite small and had an old wooden sliding door that kept getting stuck. We eventually had to just leave the door partially open.

Overall though, this was a decent hotel, and seemed to be better than other hotels on the island for this price range.

A peaceful place, amazing dishes, and great service. The octopus was one of the best I’ve ever had, and the seabass was also wonderful! We really enjoyed the food and the calm atmosphere, without crowds of people. The garden is truly very beautiful.
