3 star hotels in Istanbul

The hotel has not been renovated for a long time, very small rooms! Two people are dough. In the closet, a coat, a dress does not fit. Extremely not tasty breakfast! But a good location, polite staff, the room was cleaned daily

The hotel is good. We were on holiday with a large family, so we took a two-room suite on the 1st floor. Thanks to the hotel for a pleasant surprise on my birthday 🥰 The breakfasts are delicious, the staff is always ready to help, and Dmitry will answer any questions in Russian)) Thank you!

We stayed at the hotel from March 14 to 17. We easily booked on TRIP.COM, paid with a Russian card with all taxes at once. The hotel is very cozy, located in the historical part of Istanbul, within walking distance of many important attractions. The hotel employee Dmitry helped a lot with adaptation. Cleaning was done every day, breakfasts were decent, against the background of all the cuisine in Istanbul...

I felt there were few amenities, so I wish there was conditioner, a toothbrush, and a comb. Also, the shower room didn't drain well. The room was very clean and comfortable.

The small balcony is a plus, very quiet.

I arrived late at night and originally booked a three-bed room, but the hotel arranged a twin bed (double bed plus single bed). There was no vacancy and I could change it immediately. I could only change it the day after (but I changed it to a family room). The location is very convenient. You can walk to the Grand Bazaar and Sophia Cathedral. The hotel is also clean.

Very good hotel for staying in Istanbul. Clean, good staff, good breakfast, near to public transportation. Thanks 🙏

A cozy hotel in the Avcılar district. It's located in a beautiful area with numerous delightful parks, 15 minutes from the beach. There are also plenty of food and shopping options nearby. It's conveniently located near the metrobus, just 3 minutes away. The hotel has wonderful staff and a decent breakfast. I recommend it for a budget stay in a less touristy area of ​​Istanbul.

Room was clean and location was nice . I enjoyed to stay in this hotel .

Otel çok temizdi. Tavsiye ederim.

The hotel was clean and close to transportation. We were treated with kindness throughout our stay. Thank you.

The hotel service is extremely good.

Nice hotel on a slope in kadikoy on the Asia continent wall distance to the ferry terminal. Very good location. Clean and their breakfast spread is amazing.

Sidonya Hotel is very modern, clean and at a convenient location about 7 mins walk to the train station that connects directly to Saw Airport. I would have given a 5 star but unfortunately their air con and hair dryer was a let down. Hair dryer auto stop every 30 seconds and I have to wait a while before using it again. The aircon was not working and the room was so stuffy we had to open the window

I stayed in this hotel for 2 night. I can say that location and breakfast was good. However the window was not closing very well that's why wind sound was so strong. Also they told us we can't use sauna or gym..Also even a water is paid at minibar.. Except location and view in the breakfast it was a disappointment for me..

As a solo female traveller I would absolutely steer clear from this hotel. Evening staff are questionable and gave me the absolute creeps! When I arrived reception and staff are very welcoming, nice, friendly and super helpful when you Breakfast is really decent and has good variety and fresh, nice view of the Bospherus and lots of seagulls around, serving staff are lovely too, the location is...

There was a kettle but no coffee or tea provided and no water. The breakfast was nice just cold if you got there about 9 am. Room was clean and staff lovely

it was fantastic weekend. We came for concert, but found this district very cute: a lot of specialty caffès, local cousine, friendly people. Waiter helped us to schedule our last day – we left our bag on reception and went for lovely walk before went to the airport. Place is nice, restaurant on 5th floor where we had a good breakfast, also has a nice view. Will be back ;)

good hotel. stayed for 2 days Sep 16 to Sep 18 2025

Good location as it's close to major metro lines. WiFi is good but sometimes has connection issues or slowness.

When I first got my room it wasn't very clean,I had to ask at least 3 times on my first full day to have it cleaned. It is advertised with bar , this did not exist. There was no interaction from restaurant staff at all not even good morning at breakfast.

Nice location and staff was very helpful. Room had all the amenities and had nice views too. Breakfast had nice variety of options. Hotel helped us book the taxi to go to airport also.

A decent hotel in the heart of Sultanahmet, literally 5-7 minutes from any of its main attractions and yet slightly off the beaten path from the main tourist traffic. When I first visited the square with the Cistern of Theodosius, I noticed this peculiarity and decided to stay there someday. It worked out. The hotel itself is standard for central Istanbul in this price range. The room is small, but...

Excellent hotel, convenient location, comfortable rooms. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Very close to all the sights. Highly recommended!

This hotel is in a very nice location, near water and in heart of old town, with nice breakfast,

The breakfast buffet was good with lots of choices. They were also kind enough to prepare sandwiches for us for our breakfast in the morning when we were leaving the hotel at 4 am.

We had a lovely two day stay at Peyk. Staff was attentive and helpful. Breakfast was amazing and delicious. Really enjoyed the location. there were a lot of shops and good restaurants in the area.

Staff eas very kind and helpful. The beeakfast was poor interms of diversitiy and quality.

The room was very clean. They were very attentive. Thank you

Everything is great, the attitude of the entire staff towards the guests. Many thanks to the young gentleman at the reception for making our stay better. Highly recommended!

Very attentive and friendly staff, it's very clean, the breakfast is delicious. I recommend!

A very clean and cozy hotel. The staff is responsive, attentive, conscientious, and genuinely courteous. You can immediately feel their passion not only for their work but also for every guest. It is so pleasant and comfortable to stay here — the air feels fresh and light. Cleanliness is impeccable. I was especially impressed by the authentic atmosphere and the way the hotel is designed — everything...

I highly recommend Semsan Hotel! I want to give a special shoutout to Murat from the front desk—he was incredibly helpful throughout my stay(8 nights).Also, a big thank you to Beinur from housekeeping; she responded immediately and cleaned my room so quickly when I asked. I don't have enough words to thank them both for making my stay so lovely. I would definitely come back! All the best Semsan hotel...

The hotel was very convenient for me as a first-time visitor to Istanbul. It's located near a tram station and major tourist attractions, making transportation incredibly easy.

The hotel is perfectly located: close to all the attractions and a tram stop. Breakfast was a solid three out of five, and the staff were responsive. The view from the terrace is gorgeous!

Room a little bit small. breakfast is ok

Location : Tram just infront of the hotel, easy to go anywhere. Hagia Sophia & Blue Mosque just few steps aways 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Room : Small but okay for couple 🌟🌟🌟 Breakfast : Not so much variety but okay for standard breakfast 🌟🌟🌟 Breakfast view with terrace : Can see clearly and very near to Blue Mosque. Its 24 hours access. One of the best plus point for this hotel 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Host : Very easy to deal, they...

Great location. Breakfast area gets crowded. The food was okay, pretty average.

Good hotel. The location is simply excellent. The view from the terrace during breakfast is magnificent. Responsive staff. The rooms are small, but all amenities are available. The only thing I didn't like was the breakfast.

Hotel Akchinar is good place to stay! I had stayed at Hotel Akcinar this year. The service is fantastic. And the team are very friendly. Very good location!

I’d highly like to recommend Hotel Akçinar! It’s located just a few steps away from the port and surrounded by many restaurants and shops.It’s also very close to Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque & park.The room is cleaned every day,WiFi works well and breakfast is served daily.The atmosphere is nice,I got this “home away from home” feeling.I’ll definitely choose Hotel Akçinar again when I return to Istanbul

I had stayed at Hotel Akcinar last year and this year. The service is fantastic and the team are very friendly and generous to everyone. I could not be happier with the way they make you feel welcome. It isnt a five star hotel but I rather have Hotel Akcinar everytime I plan to come to İstanbul, it's in the smack middle of everything you need, shops, transport, restaurants,historical places and many...

The people at the reception is very helpful and the staff are very friendly and clean the rooms regularly. We had a lovely view of Istanbul ♥️ The breakfast/rooms is simple.

This was our third time in Istanbul and during first two stays we stayed at the Beyazit area, but this time we decided to give Sirkeci and hotel Akçinar a try, and we definitely didn’t regret it! Firstly, we got a room on the third floor which was quite nice but we wanted a room on a higher floor, and after we asked hotel manager he gave us the most comfortable room on the fifth floor, which had an...

We had to change accommodation on such short notice in the middle of the night and they took us right in, they were extremely kind and hospitable and the room was perfect and clean, breakfast included in the price as well. They helped us book an airport shuttle as well to pick us up right outside. Location is convenient, plenty of shops and restaurants close by. Within walking distance from Aya sofiya...

The location is strategic near to hagia sofea n blue mosque. It also near to restaurants.

Second time im booking here. So far thats good

I had a wonderful stay at Divas Hotel. The location is perfect and the atmosphere is very welcoming and comfortable. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel at home. A special thank you to Dilbar, who prepares the breakfast every morning. She is always so friendly, kind, and welcoming. You can really see the effort and care she puts into the food. Breakfast was always fresh, tasty, and prepared...

So far so good because near at tourism place. Love it

Tthat was clean and friendly hotel

Staff very helpful and friendly. Room very basic although clean, good location.

Great value for money, and the airport shuttle bus picks you up right outside. The only downside was that the toilet seat was broken; hope they get that fixed.

The hotel's location is excellent, only about a ten-minute drive from the airport. A taxi ride costs around 100 RMB.

Very hospitable staff. We stayed here during a layover. There's a Russian-speaking administrator.

Clean and convenient to the nearer food stores and convenient stores, 6 minutes walking distance. about 12km to IST airport.

Located in Shenzhen, it's conveniently situated and the service attitude is standard. The room facilities are a bit old, and the Wi-Fi isn't very stable. However, the price is affordable, so overall it offers good value for money. It's perfectly fine for a one-night stay.

The only good thing was the location and the staff. The rooms can get noisy (window) and the room with window was too noisy with broken furniture, ok for an overnight sleep but that's about it.

I stayed at this hotel for the first time. I checked in late at night. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and spacious, and the location was excellent. I will definitely come back to this hotel.

Very fair comparing to: Price, Location, Wifi Breakfast, However, make sure to check your room equipment functionality. The AC, Fridge, and TV.

the hotel is good. the staff are friendly and cooperative.. the hotel is clean. it is near the transportation. But the breakfast is bad, no variety, not much food even if you come early. some dishes are enough for two people at most not for the whole hotel. And if the dish finishes they do not put more.

For me it was very good stay: very nice people excellent service, reasonable size roome newly refurbished, tv, fridge wooden floor, nice clean breakfast, new matress

The hotel is under renovation now.

The Hotel was a pleasant suprise, as it doesn't look much from outside. Number one, it has a lift in the building, though there are maybe 6 or 7 stairs to the entrance. The room was sufficient for my needs with an even temperature. The shower is large and the toilet has an anti-drop lid. I like the overalldesign it was very resting to the eyes. The bed was comfy and warm. It had a kettle and the water...

This hotel is the 4 star hotel at real

I will give 3*and 1/2. Good hotel .hearty breakfast. Everything is close by. Good stay. But at night the disco next door bothers a little but it depends on the side of the room

Good location . problem of disco you can't sleep if you take the floor 1 to 3. very small room but enough.

The rooms in the old lodge are mediocre by those of the new are correct, and a thousand times better The new ones are just next to the reception Good stay

Excellent location with everything within walking distance. The breakfast was very good with plenty of options, and the service was friendly and professional. I would definitely stay here again.

The bed is so bad , really not comportable,

The room wasn't restocked with new slippers after cleaning.

Good stuff, rooms were smaller than we expected; we were there for a fair in Yenikapı so very close to exhibition center.

This is my 2nd time staying at this hotel and I can honestly say it always feels like home. The staff are incredibly kind and welcoming. Special thanks to Matin so kind as always and the lovely lady at the reception Kardalan, they are always smiling, attentive and ready to help with anything you need. Highly recommended!

Good breakfast, big room, convenient to access metro station.

A good hotel in the heart of Istanbul and Istiklal Street

I really liked the hotel! Clean, beautiful interior, service, location, and price. There was no loud noise from the main street. We'll be back!

The best hotel! Close to all the attractions, excellent transportation, shops, cafes, and more! The staff is friendly and attentive. Excellent customer service! The room is clean, bright, and comfortable! The best bed! Thank you for everything! I highly recommend it to everyone, you won't regret it! The hotel offers complimentary tea, coffee, and snacks. I'll definitely stay here again.

Love everything about this hotel, very cozy room, staff were friendly and helpful, especially mustafa which I had more conversations with. I chose this hotel mainly for location and it was the best location for me. I will def rebook when I visit Istinbual again. Very clean a staff is friendly.

Our favorite place in Istanbul since 2021! Very cozy and tasteful! The staff is helpful and attentive, and the rooms are spotlessly clean! We'll be back again and again!

The hotel is very clean, the location is excellent. Of course, don't come by car, it's a side street leading to Istiklal Street. There's no breakfast, but there are complimentary items. The staff are very attentive. The hotel is very new, probably recently renovated. Don't use the street to the left of the main entrance; choose the right side, the Nevizade side. Don't ask why :)

Hotel near the center, fairly clean but unpretentious, near the metro. The furniture and bathrooms are rather dated and dilapidated. Continental breakfast but not special, in my opinion at that price you can find better. I stayed there as it was part of a purchased package!

Good location to reach the center by tram and metro. Rooms (with carpet) essential as well as the kit for personal hygiene. Slippers provided, only one key per room. The staff is cooperative and helpful. Sufficient breakfast.

Emin hotel Nice hotel with big rooms I recommend this Safe place, safe area

Nice hotel. The cleaning service is not really good. There is only one elevator for max 2persons and in the morning is a nightmare..if you want to go up or down have to use the stairs

Very serene environment. Great breakfast and easy access to the city centre for shopping

I stayed in a more expensive room on the 6th floor. ROOM 608. Room was clean (needed some minor repairs) however in the room nextdoor nr 601 was very noisy (talking load, laughing, running around until 4 AM). No possibility to sleep before that time nevermind I went twice to ask to be more quiet. It was the room where the staff were staying. So my advise is stay away from the 6th floor.

I spent a gud time here, the reception was so nice especially that curly red girl she was so kind, thank you (˵ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°˵)

These people were so kind to delay our check out time till 3pm for our late flight, at no extra charge! Norman from Australia.

I liked the location and staff willingness to help. On the other hand, I stayed in what you could call a “suite” with two rooms — technically, a bedroom and a living room (which oddly had two beds and a sofa 😵‍💫). There was only one air conditioner, placed in the bedroom, and apparently it was expected to cool the living room as well. Translation: you couldn’t close the bedroom door 😂. Which makes...

It feels good. The front desk service is also very good. They will come at any time when you call them. They are also very thoughtful. They will also send some boiled water and help you open the door. The service is very good. I also like their front desk very much. The breakfast is good

Went here over my birthday and what a great hotel! Having been travelling through Turkey already we came to Istanbul and moved in here and it was great, the room was clean modern and had a great balcony. My girlfriend has asked the reception to get a cake organised and some balloons for my birthday and they got a great cake and put balloons all over the room so when I came back after our breakfast...

Great hotel, fantastic location. Guys at reception were extremely helpful and spoke good English. Clean hotel, easy to make your way around the area!!!

Lovely staff & great hotel. Room was great and we got the sea view. Great breakfast. We used the airport service provided by the hotel which was fixed fare. Only downside was when we were checking in the taxis were refusing to go to the street as its pedestrianized. To see nearby attractions there is a walk up hill - we chose to use the taxi.

The location is fantastic, featuring a spacious terrace and incredibly close proximity to the T6 tram line, a bus stop, and the seaside. This prime spot comes highly recommended. They offer convenient luggage storage. Breakfast was excellent, and you can enjoy beautiful sea views.

This Hotel is in a great location being in the centre of the Faith district. It is easy working distance to the Blue Mosque or Grand Bazaar. The staff are very friendly and speak good English. The rooms are very clean, but somewhat small for a family of 3, as we had the family room. Breakfast was good with both hot and cold food. We had a balcony, from where we good see the Blue Mosque. It was only...

We stayed three nights in this hotel. The bed was comfortable, the room was perfectly clean. We chose a room with a balcony, which we really enjoyed. Breakfast was good with a nice view. The neighborhood was calm with a lot of restaurants, near the boardwalk and the Kumkapi train station. All the attractions in Sultanhamet are reachable by foot. 100% would recommend

This is my second time I gave the chance due to the location of the hotel but it has problem with cleanliness and other big problem is hearing almost every single noise from doors and walls. This time at 08:30 am fire alert started ring for nothing.

Arrived with luggage but face a broken lift. Hot water take a long time. House keeping has no basic english such as simple word for water for new day. Tv not much foreign channel. Breakfast is limited. But room is clean.

This is my second time, I have booked this hotel The reception people were very helpful and polite. I got there before the check in time and they were willing to take my luggage and keep it safe for me to return back later in the afternoon. The service guy in the breakfast area called İbrahim was very efficient and kind and kept asking if everything was ok. There is a market nearby called SOK and...

Magnificent hotel at a convenient location. We arrived early in the morning, but were still given an early check in. Very nice and polite staff. Also the breakfast is tasty and healthy.

VERY GOOD LOCATION AND SERVICE

The location of hotel is not bad. There are several bus stations near.

A small and charming hotel right in the heart of the old town. Very friendly staff. Good value for money.

The hotel was good overall. Great location, very quiet, and the food was nice. The bathroom wasn’t as clean as it should’ve been, but honestly, for the price, it’s worth it. The biggest issue with this hotel is the staff. It felt like they didn’t even want us there. The reception was terrible no willingness to help, no smile, nothing. That’s the only thing that really brings the place down.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spotless and very comfortable. Service was terrific and the breakfast delicious.

The reception staff were very kind and helpful! The breakfast was especially delicious! The Blue Mosque and Egyptian Bazaar were nearby!

Stayed here for 5 nights . Really good hotel. Really good customer service. They actually care about you. Adnan and the rest of the staff are really helpful. The breakfast buffet is the best and offers a really wide variety, hot food is freshly Made infront of you.

I had a wonderful stay at Boss Hotel! The location is perfect—close to all the main attractions, restaurants, and transportation, which made exploring the city super easy. The hotel is clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with everything you need for a relaxing stay. The staff were especially impressive: friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything I needed. Their hospitality truly...

Very nice boutique hotel. It's very close to Kadikoy pier and major transportation buses. Check-in was easy. Staff is very friendly. Breakfast was delicious. Internet worked fine. TV has good channels. Hot water was hot. Rooms are a little bit small, but for the location of the hotel, it was good enough. . Staff was friendly. It was very clean.

This is a very nice place with friendly people! My room was small, but very comfortable, quiet, and clean, with everything I needed. I stayed there for five days and felt very relaxed, like home. Thanks to the staff for their hospitality. The location is perfect: close to the pier, metro and bus stops. Getting from Sabiha Gokcen Airport (SAW) was easy by metro, and if you need to get to Istanbul Airport...

Clean but a very small one bedroom. The bed was OK size if you’re not too tall. Service people were very nice. I would definitely come back.

The hotel location is perfect it’s a few minutes walk to the ferry and bus stop.. also a few minutes walk to the busy areas with restaurants and shopping. The rooms however are smaller than they seem online… toilets are small but if you’re not planning to hang out in your room it shouldn’t be a problem… the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet is from 8-10 am only and it’s...

Excellent location near the ferry and all amenities in less tourest more locals area ⛴️. Quaint, boutique hotel and friendly staff. Would stay again.

Nice hotel, clean rooms but unfortunately the water pressure in the bathroom is not strong and the breakfast is not encouraging
