This was my first time in Turkey, and we chose this hotel because of location, reviews and the pictures are amazing. Oh boy! We were in for a surprise! This is not a hotel but a motel! The most disgusting place I have ever stayed in my life! Everything is disgustingly dirty! We arrived around midnight and were very exhausted so we noticed the moldy and cigarette smell and the dirty bathroom. But it wasn’t until the next day that we noticed the stains all over the mattress! The bathroom was so small that when I tried to reach my leg to wash it, I couldn’t and hit my knee on the faucet! We made the staff aware of our issues and they told us that they know about it! No apologies. Didn’t even attempt to give us another room or something!
Please, save yourself the trouble and Do Not stay at this place!!

Read that this hotel had a nice rooftop bar so decided to give it a look before going to the Pera Museum. The hotel has an air of faded glory & sadly the rooftop bar had closed for the season so we went next door to the Grand Hotel de Pera.

The location and rooftop are amazing. It as unique hotel. What I find disappointing is the fact that they keep birds in cages on bottom floor and several have died given that guests have given them chocolate, etc. I think they are trying to create an old vibe with the bored cages, but it seems sad and depressing. I wish they would stop keeping birds such as parrots in those little cages:

Very nice hotel , you can stay confortable , and location is the best of all. Take 35 minutos from İstanbul AirPort and around 40 us$ all depend the tráfic, you can go from hotel to Sofia church in 15 minutos around 8 dólares , and the blue mezquita and the bazar oll are around ❤️🙏

This is one of my favorite places to have a drink in Beyoglu- the terrace is lovely and so is the bar on the main floor. They could use a bit more variety of drinks, and maybe some food? -it would be great if the terrace was open already on nice evenings!! (March now.... it usually opens in May I think?) So much history and amazing decor. I hear it's even haunted...

I think this is the best hotel overall in the area. The value for money and the interior and exterior of the hotel are particularly excellent.

Stepping into the Grand Hotel de Londres in Istanbul feels like taking a step back in time. The elegant decor and antique furnishings transport you to a bygone era of romance and luxury. Every corner of the hotel is filled with history and charm, making it the perfect place to immerse yourself in the rich culture of Istanbul. Amazing staff and romantic ambiance made our stay unforgettable!
This hotel is extremely photogenic. We witnessed numerous wedding photo sessions conducted there during our stay and couldn't resist inviting a professional photographer to take some photos for a good memory as well :)

This was my second visit here, and unfortunately, it will be my last. Our experience with the rooftop staff was extremely disappointing. We had both a local Turkish speaker and an English speaker in our group, but when we tried to order an ashtray and place a coffee and tea order at the bar, we were ignored. One staff member who clearly understood English chose to turn away and speak to the person next to him, while three others behind the bar went back to their phones.

When I finally managed to get someone’s attention, I was rudely told to order a beer, with no explanation of what else was available. Frustrated, our group of 15 decided to leave.
The place may look nice but the service sure is lacking!
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
