Very nice hotel, very nice and convenient location, near the hotel many shops and nice restaurants, very clean and food is very nice, stuff are very friendly and helpful

It's a nice hotel to stay. They help well with everything upon arrival

Great hotel with good location and very good service

Great hotel with amazing facilities, room service and caring attitude coming from the staff.

Excellent Hotel. Great location. Holiday Vibes

The food in the restaurant is constantly evolving. I have been visiting this hotel for 5 years and I can feel the evolution of the food.

Oh my god, this hotel was next level. This location is unbeatable magnificent views of the Bosphorous the blue mosque and many other sightseeing must do’s. The house Restaurant were fantastic. The staff all spoke English fluently. They couldn’t do enough to assist. I love the place. I can’t recommend this hotel highly enough.

The hotel is great! Location is wonderful.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The room was spacious, clean, and incredibly comfortable, making my stay truly relaxing. The services provided were top-notch, exceeding my expectations in every way. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, always ready to assist with a smile. A special shoutout to Özgür Çiçekdal, who went above and beyond to ensure a fantastic experience. I highly...

This is my sixth stay at what I consider to be the best hotel in Istanbul. I consistently find everything to be excellent, from the rooms and breakfast to the impeccable service and housekeeping. A particular highlight is the exceptional service in the Executive Lounge, where Ali and Eren are consistently kind and helpful.

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to the entire team for the exceptional hospitality and service I experienced during my stay. From the moment I arrived, I was truly impressed by the professionalism and attentiveness of your security staff and reception team, who ensured a smooth and welcoming check-in process. Their warmth and efficiency made my stay all the more enjoyable. A special thanks...

It's a great decision to stay at this hotel. There are many amenities inside, the rooms are spacious, and the rooms overlooking the Bosphorus have a beautiful, mesmerizing view. The furniture and decoration of the room are amazing and impressive, it is comfortable to work at a desk in the room, the staff is extremely friendly and willing to help and solve all problems. There is a good gym, there are...

The Green Park Pendik Hotel & Convention Center offers luxurious rooms, a variety of amenities including pools and a spa, and a convenient location near the airport and ferry terminals. However, some guests have reported negative experiences with the reception staff and technical issues. Overall, the hotel provides a comfortable stay with good facilities, but potential guests should be aware of mixed...

Close to a metro station. It is relatively easy to reach it by car. The breakfast was poor compared to my expectations for this price. The shower was broken and the cards for the room constantly stopped working. The staff was pleasant and always sent the service man after we complained. Overall I can say that my stay was positive no matter the issues we had.

Very good hotel. Stayed there a fair few times. It's a but aged now and could do with a bit of modernisation. The most memorable feature was the 7th floor I was in had a great view of the sea and the window opened fully like a door with no balcony. A shear drop.

We were put up.in this hotel by pegasus airlines when they messed up our flight. Lovely hotel and super comfy rooms. Restaurant has nice food - restaurant staff were not the quickest

I read some negative reviews but still chosen to stay here due to location and good price. I found it as good as any 5 star hotel. I am happy and strongly recommend.

Value for money the hotel is very good and for a one night stay trip was Fair. Having said that, the details are a miss, and you get what you paid for. Check-in experience was not friendly, neither fast. The rooms are good and spacious. Best of the hotel. I take out a star as you can hear the noise from the other rooms and the 6.30am prayers from the street. Breakfast is of average quality but extensive...

IT WAS A GREAT HOTEL AND GOOD LOCTATION THE STAFF WAS FRIENDLY WE SPENT A FUN OF TIME THE ORICE WAS LITLE HIGH

Excellent hotel, staff were extremely accommodating for every single need. The hotel was very clean and well maintained. The quality of the food was excellent and the room service staff were kind and helpful. I will be a repeat customer every trip in Istanbul.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for Mehmet Göktekin and his team in the Guest Services Department. They consistently go above and beyond to ensure that every guest has an exceptional experience at the hotel. I highly recommend this hotel for sure we will always be their guests 🏨! Special thanks once again to Mehmet and his team for their outstanding service✨.

I recently booked executive rooms with breakfast and lounge access using the Hilton app. The hotel lobby and facilities are both impressive and enjoyable. I particularly enjoyed the executive lounge with its great selection of food and the beautiful terrace. Unfortunately, the check-in experience was unnecessarily long, it took around two hours. Also, we requested connected rooms but never granted...

I recently stayed at the Conrad Hotel Istanbul and was quite disappointed with the service, especially towards Turkish guests. It seemed as though international visitors received more attention and hospitality. The staff could have been more accommodating and attentive to local guests, which was disheartening. While the hotel's location is undeniably excellent, offering easy access to various attractions...

I've stayed at this hotel for one week during my first ever trip to Istanbul. The staff here were friendly, accommodating and helpful. The location of the hotel is good and in close proximity of a lot of tourist places as well as supermarkets, pharmacies, etc. The food (in restaurant and room service) does not taste that great and takes forever to be ready. The rooms are okay but it really depends...

Excellent Stay at CVK Hotel – Taksim Square We had a wonderful experience staying at CVK Hotel right in the heart of Taksim Square, Istanbul. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with genuine hospitality and care. A special thanks to Umut, who went above and beyond to help us secure a great room at a very reasonable price. His kindness, professionalism, and willingness to assist made all the...

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire hotel team for their exceptional hospitality during our stay. The staff were consistently kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure a seamless experience. A special mention goes to Umut at the reception desk, whose professional, kind, and welcoming demeanor. He expertly assisted us during check-out, handled our luggage with care...

umran umut, the bed is so comfy, there is always good smell, the staff are so friendly and close to the heart. very good service and communication. second time visiting this hotel. i recommend it. the best place to stay. location is amazing, everything is close. and let’s not forget about the spa. very professional. highly recommend.

Wonderfully stay….perfections everywhere

I’ve stayed at CVK Hotel Taksim in Istanbul several times over the years, mainly for its great location—right in the heart of Taksim Square, close to shops, restaurants, and public transport. In the past, I’ve had consistently good experiences here, which is why I chose to return. Unfortunately, this time didn’t live up to the standard I was used to. While some of the staff were friendly and helpful...

It was a memorable staying! Top notch service and facilities, the room with sea view was stunning. Also, the location very close to Taksim square is perfect. Strongly recommended if you want an unforgettable 5-star hotel experience.

Beautiful place , I just wish they had better restaurant selection.

My stay at this hotel was good unfortunately it was the after service which was terrible. The hotel owed me a refund as I checked out early. They took my account details & even took a screen shot of my account details from there phone. 2 weeks had gone by & I hadn’t received any payment, I called & emailed and was only told it had been paid, I then confirmed my account details with the hotel which...

It is the best hotel in istanbul for me I will repeat this experience again and again

Very nice hotel and staff is really nice too. Far from the town though. Taxi cost 100 liras to grand bazaar and 150 to come back!

Great hotel!!👌 I recommend!!! Service, service all at the highest level

Very nice and comfortable hotel! Breakfast - buffet, variety, very tasty. There is a restaurant and a coffee shop, the price is relatively inexpensive! Impressions are good!

Very limited choice during breakfast and dinner. Both coffee machines not working during breakfast time and when it became ready again, water instead of milk came out for cappuccino. Room is too hot no AC. Had to open window to cook down the room and ended up with bugs calls on and torture is at night.

Great hotel, however a bit far from downtown, where everything is. The pool isn’t heated, which was a bummer. Everything else is pretty much on point. Good cost-benefit.

Had this booked via travel guide. The rooms were fine. Food for a 5* was atrocious. Pool and sauna was good but the steam room looked like a construction site pealing off the walls. No joke. Sadly with Islam comes no drinking culture and that translates to cocktail making - poor man's drink rich man's prices. Location is trash as well as it may take you 2+ hours to go anywhere by taxi!

Me and my husband stay in this hotel. The room was good, however the room was cleaned properly. They just changed the towels and did the bed up. The room wasn’t hoovered. We stayed there for two weeks.. The coffee mugs won’t replaced with Clean ones. I had to wash them myself. The breakfast was okay, but I think they need to improve and have more vegetarian options. They had no bread slices,Just baguettes...

The hotel is luxurious and comfortable. It had a good breakfast, although the selection was a bit limited. The hotel had a good location and friendly staff. Unfortunately, there were also a few bad things: 1. The kiosk in the hotel was way too overpriced. It's a disgrace to charge 400 TL for a chocolate bar. Unfortunately, the room layout wasn't that good either. There was a huge entrance, but you...

A long layover at Istanbul airport brought us to this hotel! 30 minutes by cab and we are there! Large hotel of several buildings, with cozy rooms, restaurant, cafe Starbucks and wine bar. There is a beauty salon and business center. Very friendly staff and cab rank next to the hotel. I recommend it, especially if you are flying on business.

The hotel is excellent, location, service, concierge's attention and care. We loved the 360 view of Istanbul from  the cafe/restaurant on the top floor. We will certainly return.! 

Good Hotel with an Excellent location. Rooms a little small and some cleanliness issues. A/C was not working but was fixed the next day. Room safe wasnt working in one of the rooms, and the bathroom door did not close properly in one room.

Good service and great locations. Enjoyable and relaxing stay/trip.

Very nice hotel and nice atmosphere

Went to the bar of the hotel the other day which is right next to Okra Restaurant. A bit overpriced but reasonable for a hotel. The location is amazing. It’s quiet and calm, perfect for reading or laptop work.

Firstly , the staff is very kind and welcoming,we are room 315 and the lobby is very nice and nice decoration and safe great security also the gym is very nice and big the food is excellent and unique also very tasty very good chefs and the manager for the breakfast is excellent and observed the place for any mistakes that happened but when we asked for coffee they told us to pay extra(yes we got the...

the hotel provided me with wrong info which made me stuck in the traffic jammed for long hours . Talks to hotel Duty Mgr but i was blamed and hotel refuse to accept their mistakes. . . . at the end i hv to change my whole itinerary and cancel my car rental. What a awful experience !

Had to remind them to clean up our rooms before we go out for our activities.

Great location near the Taksim square and airport bus terminal

Hotel breakfast very nice western & middle east . Location 200m from taksim centre. Hotel room big . Staff very attentive and friendly. Near to taksim park and shopping area

The lobby is quite small and tje building overall is quite old.

Everything is perfectly luxurious, the rooms the alleys and staff! I recommend for a perfectly restful vacation or business trip. Breakfast could be improved with some local sweets and better choice cold drinks..

Very pleasant stay, nice and tidy hotel. The spa was very impressive for a hotel spa and the gym equipment was very good. The hotel staff is also very friendly especially Yusuf who brought us room service several times during our stay. Yusuf was very attentive and made sure that we were taken care of through our entire stay.

We've been twice to this hotel now, both times were pleasant stays. The hotel generally has very nice internal architecture and decor. Front of house staff are friendly and accommodating. Location is semi-decent too as it's walking distance from a shopping mall and easy to take a taxi to other parts of the city. By far our favourite thing about this hotel is the Spa facilities, which are included as...

First time in Istanbul, and booked Junior Suite. The suite was very clean and beautiful and very spacious. The grill on the 15th floor was fabulous plus the breakfast in the morning is good with a lot of options. The cafeteria is again good with delicious cakes . My personal favorite was red velvet cake. Great indoor and outdoor pools. An issue we faced during our stay was Room service, which was slow...

Stayed 14 nights in July 2024 and loved it. The staff, room, restaurants, buffet, spa and pools are all top notch. Was in town for a medical procedure with another friend and we found the hotel a perfect place to recover and relax. The hotel is very mixed use, there were business professionals, a wedding, many families, and quite a few people undergoing procedures similar to ours that we instantly...

Yusuf was really nice when he came with the food. I’m on a solo trip and he talks to me, and making me feel welcome and really special. I hope everyone can experience such hospitality. Good service and food. Thank you for good total experience.

This is my 3rd stay in this hotel. Always great service, best room experience. In my current visit the staff service was just superb. I had a nasty experience with a tax driver, the staff provided me support to lodge a complaint and offered a fruit salad plate to compensate for the day bad experience. I was truly grateful.

This is an amazing hotel that's perfectly positioned in Istabul next to the Bosphorus Strait. My room had a gorgeous sea view, very comfortable bed, and a spacious bathroom. Lobby and meeting space has been recently upgraded and it's absolutely beautiful! (Event planners... I definitely recommend you check this hotel out! The service staff are incredible!) There's an amazing rooftop bar with great...

Excellent location with less than five min walk to Taxim square. Spacious lobby Service is prompt Rooms are a little old fashioned. Ours was facing Bosphorus Breakfast had good options mostly continental and Turkish We had an issue with water logging which was resolved Overall we had a pleasant stay.

One of my favorite hotels in beautiful Istanbul.🇹🇷 The rooms are comfortable and spacious. The outdoor pool is wonderful. The breakfast is varied and delicious. The most important thing is the wonderful treatment by the staff, especially Mr. Muhammad at the reception, Mr. Ahmed, 🇱🇧🇨🇵 and everyone without exception. The security is very excellent. Thank you all. 🇸🇦❤️

Simply a wonderful stay. Arrived and they only had one non smoking room and it was a twin and I accepted it. Five minutes after arriving in the room staff showed up and completely rearranged the bed to make it a queen. The pool is great, the lobby viranda amazing. Simply loved the stay

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, the location is very good, the hotel is clean, the breakfast buffet is amazing! A lot of choices with very high quality of food and hygiene. The waiters in the breakfast were very helpful and professional! They brought my toddler some coloring book, they helped me with getting us breakfast. However, we had an incident that I wish the hotel management will look at...

Fantastic hotel in a fantastic location. The staff are mainly young so you have to give them some relaxation but the senior staff are truly professionals. We were greeted by Mr. Murat at the pool bar who knew how to serve many guests at the same time with his strongest weapon, his smile.

Good service, nice location, friendly staff, facilities is great. Superb experience if you booking executive room

the great hotel ever i have been. Thank you murat!!!

Excellent hotel, close to city center, near taxim square, neat and clean, good variety of breakfast, helpful staff.

The building it was under renovation work Unfortunately we have to take 3 lefts in order go get yo our suite No mentioned about this customer should know about this before booking

My family had a wonderful time in our favorite hotel. We always stay in Hilton if there is one in any city we visit. Sometimes we stay in other hotels and miss Hilton. We love the service and all other amenities that Hilton provides and great location with style and history. Amazing service and comfortable rooms. Staff are very helpful special thanks to .Mr Murat and Mr mehmet were exceptionally helpful...

This was my first time visiting Turkey and I must say all the staff at Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus made the stay so enjoyable, relaxing, and fun. Any questions or concerns I had throughout my stay, they were more than willing to help and accommodate. Thank you so much for the wonderful time.

Very very good! The service is superb and the hardware is superb! The housekeeper is very considerate, the welcome dessert and fruit are very good, all the drinks in the MINI bar are not only free but also very high-end, every time we come back from an outing, the MINI bar is filled up, and we get warm greetings and friendly chats from every hotel staff!

The hotel is very beautiful, and it is an integrated building with the Ciragan Palace. Standing on the balcony of the room, you can enjoy the beautiful view of the Bosphorus. The breakfast restaurant, Peacock Restaurant, and Turkish Restaurant have rich and delicious dishes. Especially in the breakfast restaurant and Peacock Restaurant, you can experience the best service. Every manager of the restaurant...

The service was very good. We arrived at the hotel very early and helped to arrange early check-in.

The service is good, thumbs up. But the price is over 20,000 per night, the cost performance is really bad. I booked the Sultan Suite, thinking it was a sea view, but it turned out to be a side view of the sea. Can it still be called a sea view room? If it is a front view, you have to add another 30,000. Over 20,000 per night, not as good as the Bulgari in China, which is less than 10,000. This hotel...

Very good, good service. Pleasant scenery

Good location nice view Clean and comfortable

Excellent customer service, very helpful staff and clean rooms.

The airport is accessible by direct subway, which is very convenient. The breakfast is not very rich, which may have a lot to do with the rising prices, but everything else is pretty good. Convenient transportation.

The shower was not working and the room was not as clean as I would have expected.

Close to airport train station, but far from city center

Convenient location. Very delicious meals provided in the restaurant.

Very good, attitude is great. Room is clean, service great.

I only stayed for a very long layover and it was really good. The rooms are nice and clean. The staff is super friendly and it has a beautiful view. Great location and a great hotel!

A beautiful hotel with full amenities as you would expect from a Marriott hotel. Our sea view room was wonderful. The entire facility was very clean and breakfast was excellent with a huge variety. All the breakfast staff were very attentive and polite but Azra, who welcomes everyone at the entrance made our day every morning when we arrived. What an outstanding ambassador she is for the hotel!!! Already...

Recently stayed here for a conference. Everything was very well managed by the hotel staff. Food is also very good especially the buffet lunch. I found the reception staff to be exceptionally helpful. Rooms were good but nothing out of the ordinary. Shower had good pressure and kept its set temperature. Bed was comfortable with adequate pillows.

Average Marriott property. The management has to wake up and check the staff for their consistency! Some staff menders are excellent but many are forgetting basic things! Room services are the worst! Board room was excellent. Fitness and SPA facilities are good. Food is a huge problem! Quality of the food is way below of the Worldwide Marriott standard. Food choices are not so wide neither. Overall...

First of all: This hotel is really clean and service is professional and friendly. The room I had was well equipped with a nice view over the sea. The breakfast buffet is large with enough variety for everyone. I just missed typical dark European breads. The hotel has its own taxi service which is very convenient and you don’t have to worry about card payments or unusual rates. The only negative point...

Great service, very good breakfast. Surrounding neighborhood was quiet. Lots of great places to eat. The hotel has a very large and well maintained pool. Excellent gym and spa

Beautiful hotel, beautiful food and really helpful and friendly staff. The spa and pool are brilliant, the gym has enough equipment to cover short breaks. Cleanliness was excellent. Positioned well in textile city for shopping malls and far enough out of Istanbul centre to be relatively quiet although it’s still a busy area.

I was staying in the hotel while I was recovering from surgery. The rooms were spacious and airy, the bed was so comfortable and the staff really were lovely and did so much to help.

Stayed for 2 days after a delay to my flight and was very impressed with the quality of amenities, service, and food. My family and I had dinner twice in the restaurant on the main floor and were served by Sila and Cetin, very much would like to recognize their excellent service, professionalism, and attention to detail. I HIGHLY recommend staying here and especially eating at the restaurant, the...

Modern hotel, clean, good security. They don't allow outside food in the hotel. There are dogs outside that I could hear barking all night. The rooms don't have proper AC, so they're a bit too warm. The original room they gave me smelled like cigarettes, even though it was a non smoking room, so I asked them to move me. Once I moved rooms, it was better. However, like other people mentioned, I also...

The transportation is very convenient. I traveled a lot during the exhibition. Fortunately, the transportation is very convenient, the hotel is comfortable, and the sanitary environment is pretty good. I will come again when I get off the bus on a business trip.

It is a very good hotel, its facilities are also ***et sufficient for two people. Mini bar prices are a bit expensive, there is a shortage of markets in the area, this should be taken into consideration, however we did not use the mini bar, we ordered from the surrounding markets over the internet, ***et it was economical.

I had a wonderful experience during my stay! The room service was exceptional, earning a five out of five—prompt and delicious, with the salmon and tomato soup being my favorites. The breakfast buffet at €20 is worth it, offering an abundance of tasty options. Arrive early to avoid long lines for the made-to-order omelettes, but the attentive staff will keep things moving. There's a spacious Starbucks...

The rooms are perfect—clean and comfortable, with complete facilities. The service is very good. All the staff are really friendly and helpful. The food is very good, and Mr. Osman in the restaurant is really friendly and helpful. The location is perfect, with many restaurants and mini markets around the hotel. I would recommend this Hotel for anyone who will stay in Kurtkoy area.

Stayed at this hotel due to missing a flight at SAW. The hotel was closer in comparison to the hotel Pegasus placed me in, only 14 minutes away from the airport. Easy check in process. The staff was helpful and efficient. The room was quite big for the price paid, which was a delight. Special thanks to Berk for helping me to my room and giving all the relevant information!

I’ve had an absolutely wonderful experience at Mövenpick Hotel. The breakfast has been fantastic, with fresh, delicious food and so many options to choose from. Osman and his staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. As I am pregnant, Osman went out of his way to make sure I got everything I needed to satisfy my cravings, which was much appreciated. The level of care and attention to detail made...

The hotel located near the airport and surrounded by numerous cafes and restaurants. Our one-night stay was delightful, starting with a very clean and beautifully appointed room. The standout feature, however, was the exceptional staff. They were incredibly helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable, making our experience truly memorable. Overall, we had a great time and would highly recommend this hotel...

Visiting from Florida, I stayed here for four nights and it was a superb experience. I did not receive a bad attitude nor negative vibe from any staff here. The rooms were nice, modern and I had a view overlooking the city. The food was also excellent. This hotel contributed to the overall five star experience I had in Türkiye making me not want to leave. I cannot wait to visit Türkiye again.

Modern beautiful hotel Gorgeous breakfast Good place to stay before morning flight (of course not for sight seeing activities - too far) Absolutely loved this place!

Very nice hotel but not really up to the standards of other 5 star hotels in Turkey. Pros : - The room had a nice view since we were in the 14th floor. - The bathroom had a bath, just as we requested. - Free shuttle to a mall nearby, I forgot its name. Just ask the reception. - Wifi speed was good enough - Rooms were clean - Taxis are available in front of the hotel and public transport is also available...

A few room issues (heating and plumbing) but overall decent hotel

Amazing hotel, spa is all that we need. Breakfast is very good

Lovely staff, lovely housekeepers,nice food and healthy,nice view city from floor 7 and up,good price,I hope they put prayer carpet in all rooms Muslim or not same as they put the alchohol in all room Muslim or not Muslim

Amiable workers helped me a lot to satisfy me. The crew educated very well. High quality service and cleanliness make me to choose them again. Hardly suggested..

thanks large.very good blogowanie.loved it.

This hotel is a real gem! Me and my husband had a real blast here. The hotel is great starting from the lobby with fresh orchids. Very kind personel. Rooms spatious, clean, comfortable. Complementary coffee, tea, chocolate. Very good mini bar. Breakfast vatious, fresh and delicius. And the most important the pool! Very clean, great service. The use of the spa and outdoor pool are in the price as well...

If you want a stress free stay , 5 class service . This hotel is for you - I went with my family - really enjoyed . Staff was very good . Room service was spot on . There to help always . Cleanliness was 100% . Would love to come again and stay .

The rooms are big and not too expensive. The rooms also look comfortable. But we had ants all over our floor! The service is usually very good but one time I ordered fruits and it took 2 HOURS!! In the meanwhile i saw the people next to me get fruits while I waited for so long. The waiters are nice but they sometimes seem a little unfriendly and give people weird looks. The location is nice at the...

This is truly one of the best hotels in Istanbul. The staff were exceptionally friendly, making us feel right at home and always ready to help with anything we needed. The rooms were beautifully decorated, and the breakfast offered a wide variety of options. We especially enjoyed the indoor and outdoor pools, as well as the nearby beach walks and shopping mall. Our only regret was that our stay was...

Some of the staff is fantastic! The ladies working at the indoor bar and poolside bar were excellent. They were the only ones that spoke great English and didn’t get frustrated with attempts to speak Turkish. The property is beautiful, the rooms are very comfortable, and the food is good. There are other places to dine and shop nearby but most historical landmarks are a 30 minute drive (more like...

Beautiful hotel with a lovely promenade and next to a great food and shopping mall. I would recommend getting a sea view room !
