Fıstıklı Köyü Holidays from AU$3,536

Overall I would rate the hotel as a 3 star not a 4 star hotel. It was very convenient to Istanbul attractions. We walked to the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sofia Mosque in a 15 minute uphill walk. It was entirely safe except for the Turkish rug salesmen around the mosques. The calls for prayer were loud, but this is all over the city. We also walked to the Basilica cistern, Grand Bazaar, Spice Bazaar and Galata Bridge and Tower on easy walks. I feel that the hotels location is its biggest asset. There are a large number of restaurants and nightlife immediately adjacent to the hotel. We had 2 free nights from Turkish Airlines and added 2 additional nights for a total of 4. The breakfast was good and we ate dinner in the hotel restaurant 2 nights. I would definitely stay there again. Istanbul is a lively vibrant city.

Good friendly staff, clean modern rooms, great location but the central AC was off (1st week of November) which was uncomfortable for us as had to leave window open which lead to excessive traffic noise and the odd mosquito.

Lovely hotel in convenient location. Staff friendly and helpful.

Near taksim square i love this hotel very much i will stay again in the future

Good location as it was right at the hill looking over Halic (Golden Horn) and very close to Galata Tower. Lots restaurants near by also. The top floor restaurant provides magnificent view. However, the facilities on site were visibly old and the breakfast only had limited selection. This is of course in comparison with other more modern hotel choices in the area.
