Top Istiklal Avenue Hotel Reviews

Çırağan Hotel Bosphorus

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel with quite friendly and helpful staff. Our room was good with confortable bed and spacious bathroom. Well kept. Breakfast was quite an experience with many traditional western breakfast staples and great local delicacies. The park across the street is amazing and walking to the Ciragan palace is easy. By the way make sure that whomever is driving you are clear that they are going to the Ciragan Bosphorus and not to the Ciragan palace. Nice coffees and restaurants in walkable distance. Area has a lot of young people since a couple of universities are in the neighborhood."

Richmond Istanbul

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Taksim, Istanbul! The location is excellent, with easy access to restaurants, shopping, public transportation, and all the main attractions. The hotel was comfortable, clean, and welcoming, making my stay very enjoyable. The staff were friendly, helpful, and attentive, always ready to assist with anything I needed. I truly appreciated the hospitality and the pleasant atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul who wants to stay in a convenient location and enjoy a comfortable experience. I would happily stay here again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"

Aria Palace Taksim

8/10 Good

"I had two different rooms. A suite for 3. That was nice but not sure if the price was worth it. O think 10-20 dollars less would be perfect for the quality of the room. The second room I got was a single bed for 2 people. No windows. It was ok for one night. I didn’t even get to sleep as I had to leave early morning. Same as above, the price would be better if it were a bit cheaper. It is very centric and a block from the main street and from the bus stop. Staff needs to be more friendly."
