Top Istiklal Avenue Hotel Reviews

The Ritz-Carlton, Istanbul

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was good !! The only problem is the noise, stadium and concert hall next to the hotel !!"

CVK Park Bosphorus Hotel Istanbul

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I stayed at CVK Park Bosphorus for the final night of our anniversary trip to Turkey, and it was the perfect ending. The location is excellent — right by Taksim with beautiful Bosphorus views, and an easy walk to Dolmabahçe Palace. Our room was spacious, spotless, and very comfortable, and the staff were attentive throughout — they even responded to our pre-arrival email the same day with thoughtful anniversary suggestions. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and everything felt polished and well run. We only wish we could have stayed longer — highly recommended for a special occasion in Istanbul."

Pera Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We recently stayed at the Pera Palace and our accommodations were fabulous. This old historic hotel did not show any signs of its age. The buffet breakfast is a real added treat with an incredible array of choices. The staff is very attentive and when we checked in our attendent accompanied us to our room via the old historic elevator."

Sanat Hostel Taksim

10/10 Excellent

"Magnifique hôtel avec une belle ambiance"

Divan Istanbul

8/10 Good

"Not providing much help on a confusion with the Expedia reservation. Also be aware of the offer of transport from the airports as their rate is double the standard. also, if you're using Expedia, and you get the 20% offer off spa and food, make sure they add it, because I had to request it at the end. it is a nice property. I'm just saying they were not very flexible."

The Marmara Taksim

10/10 Excellent

"1. Superb location at the heart of Istanbul - proximity to tourist locations and transportation 2. Great amenities with the view on Taksim square 3. Large gym, very well equipped and maintained 4. Attentive staff. We had an initial issue with the room, which was solved first thing on the morning."

Aria Palace Taksim

10/10 Excellent

"I always stay at Aria Hotel in Istanbul as it is the best option for location, cleanliness and service. Management at reception always welcoming and accommodating!"

Taxim Trend Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed at Taksim Trend Suites and had a wonderful experience — but what truly made our stay special was manager Azosh. He was incredibly helpful from the moment we arrived: always available, quick to sort out anything we needed, and genuinely caring about making our stay comfortable."

Rixos Pera Istanbul - Nickelodeon Play Access

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed to this hotel this year for 9th time in a row. It feels like a home. We always stayed there whenever we are in Istanbul. Love the hotel, excellent location and wonderful staff. Rooms are very nice. Only thing I would add that hotel now needs some renovation. I would still stay there but wear and tear is very obvious now. They do a great job to keep it clean but furniture and bathrooms definitely need some love and attention. But still love this hotel and staff is so welcoming and friendly."
