5 star hotels in Istanbul

Love this hotel, location is just 5mins walking to Galata and 5mins walk to Karakoy tram station. Room is soooo big! And worth the price. Paid for Presidential Suite and i consider it one of the best hotel in the area

Good location and nearby Galata Kulesi. And i booked the room with sea view, so amazing.

We had a great stay overall. The location is great - right in the center with access both on foot and by car. The area itself is beautiful, especially the historic “bank street” nearby with its impressive architecture, which made every walk pleasant. One of the highlights was the luxurious, historic hammam - a unique experience and very well maintained. Breakfast was also excellent, with a good selection...

The hotel boasts an excellent location, perfect for sightseeing. Public transportation makes everything easily accessible, and a 10-minute walk across the bridge gets you to the other side of the city. The hotel is very clean and smells lovely throughout. My only complaint would be the swing door to the bathroom/toilet. Firstly, it doesn't close completely, which compromises privacy, and secondly...

It was a very nice expérience in the galata hotel, the people of staff were perfect in every fields, we tried the beautiful hammam and they were so gentle and kind with my family and me, thanks also to Shahribanu who welcomed us warmly with her advices. The room was great and the hotel is well located. thank you again, we will come back I recommand !

The hotel is centrally located downtown, which made getting around easy. The room was clean and comfortable.

Good hotel nice location,love it,good service,room is big

Had a wonderful stay at Hyatt Centric. The room was quite large, open, and very comfortable. The staff were all really nice and friendly! The only comment is that the police sirens can be a bit annoying as I believe there is a police station nearby.

One of the best hotels I’ve stayed in. The customer service was excellent, and the rooms were spacious and spotless. The breakfast selection was also impressive. I’d definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Hyatt! The atmosphere was great, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly and professional. The breakfast was excellent, and our waiter Muhammad Santos was especially kind. Highly recommend!

Verry nice hotel. But the service went a bit down. And it is also overpriced. We had breakfast in the room and the waiter just brought it and left. Didnet set up the table or take any off the food out from the hot boxes. Hi barely spoke to us, basically just rolled the table in and left. Also when we extended our stay the staff at reception was verry rude, didnet have any manners at all It may have...

To be honest, I was impressed by the room I stayed in. I believe I was upgraded to a higher room category due to my loyalty to this hotel chain. And they surprised me with a well chilled bottle of wine and some fruits upon arrival. The modern room was really spacious and, among other things, featured a huge couch. The bed was comfortable enough to get a good rest during the night. And even more important...

The staff were very friendly and attentive. Service is overall very very very good. Room was very clean and spacious for the family suite. Breakfast was good, has a live station making different types of eggs.

Excellent location at door steps of both grand mosques. Rooms are spacious and well ventilated. Staff is really friendly and helpful. Manager Ahmed was very helpful kind and friendly.

Great hotel with incredible service, especially Dalha at the front desk who was super attentive and helpful. Hotel is literally a 1 minute walk from the Hagia Sophia and the blue mosque. Grand Bazaar 15 min walk, spice Bazaar 20 min walk and lots of restaurants around. Also nice very spacious rooms. Would 100% recommend the stay!

Our stay at Hotel Vogue in Istanbul was absolutely fantastic! The location is perfect for exploring the city, and the service was truly outstanding. The staff were incredibly friendly, and we were delighted to receive a complimentary room upgrade—it made our stay extra special. A huge thank you to Ayan, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. He was caring, attentive, and always ready to...

The location is good, the hotel is "tired", old, I will not go there again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A wonderful experience at Vogue Supreme Hotel Istanbul! Our stay at Vogue Supreme Hotel in Istanbul was absolutely fantastic. The hotel offers a luxurious and relaxing atmosphere, beautifully clean rooms, and excellent facilities. The food was delicious and varied, and the entire place radiates quality and great service. A special thank you to receptionist Ayhan, who was incredibly helpful...

The service was excellent, reflected in all the small details. We had a great stay.

Every day in Istanbul was filled with strong winds and heavy rain, and it wasn't until the last day that I finally experienced the breathtaking fjords. The hotel spa experience wasn't as amazing as I had imagined; it was quite average. Perhaps my expectations were too high. The breakfast, however, was plentiful with many choices, and the location was very convenient. The hotel service was Peninsula...

The hotel's overall facilities are great, and the air conditioning in the rooms works perfectly for both heating and cooling. During check-out, we met Manager Darhan, who provided professional and enthusiastic service. The hotel is truly lucky to have him and his team. A manager from the housekeeping department, who appeared to be of Indian/Pakistani descent, also provided excellent service. However...

The hotel abutting the seaside closest to adjacent restaurants, pier and a bridge where you can walk across the harbour. The hotel rooms and public areas were newly decorated to a luxurious standard. As we told the "Hamam" in Turkey is a must try experience, we went to the Peninsula Spa and booked a Couple's Retreat. The given treatment room for a couple is deemed too small with only 1 small shower...

The most distinctive feature of this Peninsula hotel is its prime location on the waterfront, known as "The Lobby." However, it appears to be open to the public as well; hotel guests receive neither discounts nor priority service. Requests to staff were frequent, requiring multiple reminders before items were brought to the table. In the evenings, it was cold, and after repeatedly asking for a heater...

The room was very clean, the hotel service was very good, the scenery was very beautiful, and there were many restaurants.

Honestly l've been living in 4 and 5 star hotels across the Middle East for the last 4 years and this has been outstanding in terms of feeling like at home. 10/10

I’ll highly recommend who come to this country and choosing this hotel

Hotel staff were friendly & helpful. Great location to get around Istanbul. Hotel is very clean. Highly recommend

Its good but the room service close at 11pm And the room cleaning stopped at 4pm No any spa But there is a small gym

Was not worth it! I’ve booked terrace room, which is one of highest priced and expected good quality room and view. Terrace was already closed in November, even tho weather is good, furniture is covered. But more importantly the view from the balcony is awful, there is nothing but garbage and backyard. Literally not worth it! Room is clean, but not super fresh. This hotel doesn’t have rooms with...

The hotel is in the Karaköy district, which is perfect for exploring Istanbul. It’s walkable to the T1 tram station, Galata Tower, and the art museum so location is definitely a highlight. The area also feels pretty safe, even for female travelers, which is a big plus. Our room was clean and had a spacious bathroom, which was nice. However, we were placed on the first floor, and the view was underwhelming...

The room service and hygiene are really poor, and the standards are inconsistent. Judging by the room rates across all four seasons, it's really not worth it. The only advantage is the location!

Aside from the price, there are no other drawbacks. Located right next to the Blue Mosque, you can hear the call to prayer every day, which creates a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. The breakfast price is acceptable, but ordering is a bit of a struggle, especially for Chinese stomachs. We recommend adding a Chinese menu. The hotel's shampoo and conditioner are excellent.

I was originally staying for five consecutive nights. Upon arrival, I was dissatisfied with my room and contacted the front desk to resolve the issue. The staff member I was dealing with kept changing their explanations, eventually flatly saying, "I've tried my best to resolve the issue, but you don't seem satisfied. Remember, I'm trying to help you." After receiving this response, I decided to change...

Well, that is the definition of class. A tip for any other hotel - want to make guest leave money in the hotel and stay inside as long as possible without leaving? Then do your thing good. Amazing stuff, amazing garden, amazing food and drinks, fantastic bed and service implacable yet invisible. You’re out for a garden coffee for 20 mins? Your room is done. Out in the evening for quick nearby...

The rooms are small, the public areas are also small. It is not a new hotel, but it is well maintained. The facilities are completely incomparable to those of the Peninsula. However, the location is very good, and it is very convenient to go to the surrounding attractions. In particular, there are yachts that can go to another peninsula by the sea. The yachts are great. I suggest that you can stay...

What do I think about this hotel? In the old city, it is very convenient to go to the Blue Mosque or Hagia Sophia. However, since the hotel is converted from an old building, the room is not very big. However, since it has been renovated, the whole room is very modern. I especially like its service staff because they are quite considerate and the overall feeling is very good. However, if you want to...

The location is excellent, with a great view of the Bosphorus. The rooms are tastefully designed, clean, and tidy. All the hotel staff are very friendly and welcoming!

I only stayed at this hotel for one night, but it left a very good impression on me. The staff were genuinely kind and welcoming. The room was modern and very clean, with a large window and a great view of Istanbul, which I really enjoyed. The location is also very convenient—close to Taksim Square and within walking distance of the Atatürk Cultural Center. It was a comfortable and enjoyable stay...

This was my second stay at this hotel, and once again we had an amazing experience. The staff and service were truly 10/10. I would like to thank the entire team for their professionalism, friendliness, and helpfulness. Special thanks to Mr. Burak from the reception, as well as Mr. Kutay and Mr. Gencer — they all made our stay even more comfortable and special. The hotel is cozy and quiet despite...

My stay at the Gezi Hotel was a very positive experience overall, primarily because the location was absolutely perfect and made exploring the city incredibly easy. The rooms were notably clean and well-maintained; although they were a bit on the small side, they were still comfortable and well-designed for a pleasant stay. What truly stood out was the service, as every member of the staff was exceptionally...

The staff at Gezi Bosphorus truly made this stay exceptional. From the moment I arrived, the service was kind, personal, and genuinely thoughtful, and I felt right at home. A special thank you to Fadi, who quickly picked up on my love of a good wine moment and made thoughtful recommendations, and to Ohan, who was incredibly helpful throughout my stay. I also really appreciated the upgrade to the ...

Amazing hotel with a stunning view! I booked the Sky Suite and was thrilled to find it looked exactly like the pictures—you truly get what you book here. The panoramic view of the Bosphorus is one of the best in all of Istanbul. The suite itself was spacious, impeccably clean, and very well-maintained. While the hotel itself is not large, it feels cozy and comfortable.location is perfect , near Taksim...

The hotel is of an average standard, with decent service. Overall, the stay was good everything was clean and well-maintained. The staff was polite and helpful. The only thing I would suggest is a bit of renovation or refresh to make the rooms feel more modern. Overall, a comfortable option, especially for a short stay near the airport.

I wa just there for a layover  Hotel location was convenient, comfortable room and good service

Slippers & Toothbrushes & Toothpaste Not available in room But they are Kind and polite and resolve the issues

Spacious room but very standard service and amenity. We had dinner at the restaurant downstars, it was quite slow. Almost 1hr to get the dishes despite that very few customers. The transfer car from/to the airport was good, by the way.

Not far from Airport. Good room. A beautiful mosque is next door. No bus service coonects to the City area.

We stayed at this hotel for one night with my family, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Everything was very clean and well maintained, which immediately made us feel comfortable. After a long flight, Mr. Adil kindly helped us get a comfortable room where we could properly rest. The service was genuinely warm, the dinner was very good, and Mr. Adil went above and beyond by arranging...

Amazing place, super convenient location, close to all the main attractions. The breakfast was delicious and the service was impeccable. The room was very spacious and new, and the housekeeping was beyond excellent. There's even a rooftop restaurant and bar on the top floor! I'll definitely stay here again! Much better than the Intercontinental, where I stayed for the first two days.

A great hotel, a historic building with a magnificent interior. Everything in the room was very comfortable and well-thought-out. We had a quiet room on the 3rd floor. Special thanks to the reception staff, who were so attentive to my husband's birthday, sending a cake to our room and allowing us to check in early at our request. The terrace is excellent, very pleasant to sit on. Cons: I can only note...

The location is great, and the front desk staff were very nice and let us check in early.

Fantastic hotel. Centrally located. Friendly staff. We stayed in the Deluxe Duplex Room. The sofa wasn’t a sofa bed but it was no problem. Staff quickly put in an extra bed for us. Couldn’t fault the place.

Exceeded expectations, high ceilings, good living environment

I've been to Istanbul several times and I like the location of this hotel. It's convenient to get around. The breakfast is simple and not very rich. The room is small, but the service is OK. Overall, it's a hotel worth trying because the hotel's architecture is very unique.

Very clean and nice hotel, staff was not in good mood...🙃 Train railway is next to the hotel and is so noisy all night long but not a big thing✌️Breakfast was excellent✌️

Great hotel with swimmingpool and perfect service. They even park your car for you. Would definitely recommend this hotel! 😄

Good value for money hotel. Service from front of house to restaurant / bar staff was great. Rooms are big with tea / coffee minibar etc. Beds comfy and decent pillows. Breakfast is comprehensive!

Staff was very helpful otel was clean breakfast was very good I recommend to everyone.

Clean friendly I recommend to everyone.

Rooms were okay and staff were super friendly. Bed mattresses need some deep cleaning though. Breakfast is decent and in any case there are plenty of stores and restaurants around. It is also 7 mins drive from Maltepe Mall. Swimming pool was alright and the hotel got a barber in the ground floor. We had a pleasant stay overall.

THE HOTEL IS OLD AND NOT VERY CLEAN, IT NEEDS RENOVATION. THE STAFF AT THE DOOR WERE NOT AT ALL HELPFUL, WHICH WAS DISAPPOINTING.

The staff at reception were incredibly helpful. They were very kind and upgraded our room. I'd especially like to thank Mr. Samet and Mr. Emin for their attention and courtesy.

*Rotta Hotel is an amazing place to stay!* The staff were incredibly friendly, and the breakfast was excellent. A special thanks to Suray and Atila, the breakfast hosts — they were both very polite, professional, and made the experience even better. Overall, a great stay. I highly recommend Rotta Hotel!

The breakfast is really good, the service was really nice, we got a free room upgrade in the beginning. The bed sheet was not clean when we arrived, also the room itself was not 100% clean, but it was okay for us. We were used to high clean standards before.

Dated and no attention to detail. Nearly every chrome surface in the room was tarnished like it was cleaned with an old dirty rag. The whole of my floor (1) stank of cigarettes and there was a strong smoke odour in my room that I shared with my 5 year old. She woke a little congested. TV remote missing back so batteries kept falling out. Also the light from the channel thing they attach to the tv is...

We stayed sponsored by airlines. Rooms are good and well maintained. But food supply was so limited and inadequate. It’s located an industrial zone so cannot find any place to explore. Overall is average

I'll try to stick to the facts. I arrived at 10 AM and was immediately checked in and offered breakfast (even though breakfast on the day of arrival wasn't included). The administrator was very welcoming and friendly. My room was right by the elevator, so in the mornings and evenings, I could hear people as if they were in my room. In the evenings, I could clearly hear my neighbors (their phone conversations...

***The meat was nice, the staff was friendly, approachable and I would like to thank everyone involved...

I stayed at this hotel from October 20th to 25th. The location is excellent, close to the Aksaray metro station and the final stop of the Khavais, which I took from the airport. There's also a tram stop nearby. On the other side of the hotel, the Yenikapı metro station and the Marmaray line are even closer. The bus stop is literally 300 meters away. I stayed on the top floor, and the elevator worked...

Good hotel just for one night, very outdated, breakfast is ordinary

Very nice location near to the tram or metro the staff very friendly and helpful 👍

Located in the heart of the old European district, it's a convenient walk to nearby attractions and the old city. Transportation is extremely convenient, and everything is nearby. The windows are well-insulated, so even in the bustling city, it's quiet. A great choice for a short stay. The hotel's practicality and value for money are key factors in its evaluation. Photos are from the hotel exterior

This hotel is great. The room amenities are very complete, making it an excellent choice for a business trip to Istanbul. The breakfast is also very good.

It was just okay. I booked it because I had an early flight. It wasn't particularly clean, about on par with a typical Home Inn.

Had a wonderful stay! Not only was Veysel amazing, but the entire team—from room service to the spa & restaurant & front desk reception staff—were incredibly friendly and welcoming. I truly enjoyed my time here and would definitely love to come back.

Clean and comfortable. Location near metro but a bit far from tourist attraction. The in room menu is good. Breakfast option will be better if they have more variety and more turkish food

Overall good, but the meal was soso compared to other similar hotel. The staff were very friendly

Lovely hotel would definitely recommend. Staff are very attentive, they cant do enough for you.

I would go again and I love it !!! The welcome deserts was amazing

Fantastic! Very clean, and the service was excellent. A great first choice when arriving in Turkey.

The hotel staff were all very kind, and the entire hotel was spotless. Breakfast wasn't a buffet, but there were individually portioned jams, butter, cheeses, and a wide variety of other spreads for bread, which filled us up every morning. The ferry terminal was nearby, and we took the ferry to the city center. The view of Istanbul from the ferry was absolutely amazing. Also, right in front of the...

Good hotel and parking costs 5 Euros per day

I booked this hotel because my flight landed at dusk, and I planned to visit Miniatürk and the Rahmi M. Koç Museum the next day. The front desk staff spoke excellent English. While the room wasn't large, it was tastefully decorated, and the breakfast was particularly unique.

Superb service. Room size is small but well organized Park terrace room

⸻ Stayed at Radisson Residences Vadistanbul. Great location with easy access to everything. Service and cleanliness were good overall, but the room had a noticeable food smell. Still a decent stay.

Very Well equipped kitchen. A pleasure to spend a night there.

The hotel is excellent and family-friendly. I thank everyone from reception to the baggage handlers and cleaning staff.

The location is great, with complete amenities nearby. If you don't like Turkish food, you can buy groceries and cook your own meals; there's a small supermarket downstairs with all the necessary ingredients.

Overall it's OK, it's OK for business trips

Besides the guy preoccupied at the front desk with a game on his phone while checking us in, the service was very good, especially during the breakfast. The apartment surpassed my expectations. It is modern, spacious  and very clean. Everything you need is there.  They also provided complimentary water, Nespresso expresso, coffee and tea that's refilled when the room is clean. You will feel at home...

Good location amazing staff will highly recommend it loved how invested they are in high service

We booked a family suite. It was beautiful and spacious, with a seating area, dining table, bedroom, and bathroom. However, I have some observations: the bathroom handle near the toilet seat for flushing is difficult to open and close, and it's small; the water jet on the toilet seat doesn't work well; there are tissues, papers, and dust under the bed; there are brown stains in the corners of the shower...

Besides the size of room and breakfast price tag, everything else was good

I would like to thank the reception staff, many thanks Farouk, Musa, Zahra, Omit and the rest whose names I don't remember. They were very helpful, cooperative and kind. They spared no effort in helping us. The hotel is beautiful, clean and has an excellent location. I highly recommend it. My name is Eman Alfi . We from 23 - 28 / 10 / 2025.

It was really good. Staff was very friendly and caring, specially Zoha.

There was always someone at reception who could speak English, help with my needs and answer my questions.

As a Bond fan, I came specifically for the 007 filming location. The room was a bit small, but the location is great. The 7th-floor observation deck offers an amazing view, perfect for taking photos!

It was a lovely hotel, near to everything. Spice bazaar is just 50m away.. near tram stop and pier.. easy to go new European side by tram and Asian side by ferry.. will stay here again

Good location but room is quite smal

We chose this hotel because it was one of the filming locations for 007: Skyfall—and ended up having an incredible five-night stay! The most memorable part of our experience was the staff. Every single person we encountered was warm, helpful, and genuinely kind. We were greeted every time we passed through the lobby, and they went above and beyond to help us—booking our taxi to the airport and even...

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of the Old Town, making it easy to visit attractions, and it's only 100 meters from the Spice Bazaar. The rooftop views are excellent. The downside is that while the hotel's decor is decent, the rooms are extremely small. The breakfast is also very poor value for money, so I definitely wouldn't recommend it. I stayed for 4 nights, but next time I'll probably...

Service is top notch. They will go above and beyond to ensure that your holiday is perfect.

Heating issues and insufficient service.

Hotel was ok service every day had to ask because the didn’t bring towels or they didn’t put the coffee or they changed the size of the water in the elevator which didn’t work three times also there is a smell of sewage in the eleveator, certainly this hotel is 5 starts but maximum 4 stars

In the heart of good shopping area and greay bars and restuarant

Upscale & special hotel in the heart of Nişantaşı I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. It’s beautiful and perfectly located in the heart of Nişantaşı on a lovely street. I traveled alone to Istanbul this time, and as a woman, I felt very safe and truly welcomed. Erdem and Mehmet were always friendly and smiling while serving a delicious breakfast :) And Nurme was also so kind and service-minded. Overall...

the service was nice and the rooms are clean

This was my 3rd time staying here—definitely my favorite hotel in Istanbul! Huge thanks to Ersin at the front desk for the warm welcome as always, and to Cemil for being incredibly helpful and approachable throughout my stay. Always a pleasure coming back!

Location is really good. Rooftop restaurant view is amazing.

Clean hotel and excellent service

Good location, but the room is too small.

Can Trip.com please stop misleading me with deceptive photos? The hotel's location is great, but besides the helpful porters, everything else was just so-so. The hotel might be a converted old building; the lobby is quite exquisite, and the rooms also look refined, but the soundproofing is extremely poor. You can clearly hear doors opening and closing next door. There was also a mysterious drainage...

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely loved our stay at Orient Occident Hotel! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The rooms are stunning – beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to create a relaxing and stylish space. The service was outstanding. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, professional, and...

The room was a bit small, but everything else was fine. The front desk was very friendly and told us they loved Chongqing, China. We arrived at the hotel at 10 a.m. and they let us check in early. The facilities were exactly as shown in the pictures. In Istanbul, which is full of shabby, dirty, hot and irritating hotels, returning to the hotel felt like entering heaven.

The Cronton was perfectly located in the old town so that all the main sights you want to see are within a 15 minute walk. The staff are so helpful and friendly, the food was very good, the rooftop bar had stunning views and the hotel had a lovely character and atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

Location is great overall but please be advised taxis cannot get exactly in front of the hotel. It’s a cobbled mostly pedestrian road. The room size is very small but overall decor and in particular the bathroom are outstanding.

The room was ok. But there was absolutely no isolation and even on the 5th floor you could hear a lot of noise from the street. There was no tall mirror in the room the toilet paper kept on falling for this kind of price I was expecting much better

The hotel's location gets a 5+! It's within walking distance of Old Town attractions, with plenty of cafes, currency exchange offices, the Egyptian Bazaar, the metro, and the Bosphorus nearby. The hotel itself is very beautiful, especially with the evening lights. Directly opposite is the building where a James Bond film was shot. The restaurant is decorated in a luxurious classic style; you can tell...

It is a great room and location. Walking distance to a lot of key land marks in the old city. It would have been great to have more control of the AC. As it gets hot at night. Overall, lovely hotel and lovely restaurant.

From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Valeria at reception, who was incredibly friendly and shared plenty of helpful tips about the surrounding area. The porter was also extremely attentive, and we truly felt well looked after by the whole team throughout our stay. Our room was fantastic; spacious, thoroughly cleaned, and filled with a lovely fresh scent. The bed was super comfortable...
