9.6/10 Exceptional! (271 reviews)
Lovely hotel, front desk staff were amazing. Incredible service. Breakfast and the staff at breakfast was a let down. Very unwelcoming and slightly underwhelming considering Turkish breakfast is incredible in London

Not too much to see, a little overrated and too touristy for my taste.

Food is excellent in Istanbul. Stay away from hotel staff recommandations, you end up paying a lot more for less. Sultan Ahmet fish house is a must, great food and service, All the old Mosques are a piece of art, TopKapi is a must visit. Several malls to choose from, from middle of the road to the best name brands. Grand Bazar is an experience not to be missed.
