Safran Vacations from $640

Staff at the main desk were very helpful, booked a lot of tours for me, helped me with navigating around the area. Cleaners also did a great job everyday. Hotel is placed in the perfect location with great views of Hagia Sohia and the blue mosque, also have great views of the sea from the restaurant on the 6th floor. Overall my stay the the hotel for 5 nights was absolutely amazing.

Extremely friendly, helpful and accomodatig staff. The breakfast was spectacular and tasty. We arrived early in the morning and were pleasantly surprised by a complimentary early check in and breakfast! Our room had a lot of space and very interesting decor. The roof top terrace, where we had an amazing breakfast buffet every morning, had a breathtaking view on the sea and a city. I would consider this hotel for our next time in Istanbul.

Since my first review was rejected, I’ll rewrite as simple as it gets. As a second stay at Richmond in Istanbul, i can clearly say the following: Staff are not friendly, if you ask for something as if they don’t like to help. Most important thing, I don’t know if I can trust this hotel again when my suitcase was gone missing from the reception safety!! The manager was the only helpful person who made sure we located our suitcase and got it back while taking us to the airport on his expense. Other than that, the hotel is nice, clean, perfect location with fine rooms.

Excellent staff and excellent breakfast

Hotel is very centrally located and the Manager Mr Tolga Akay is very helpful and friendly in fact best manager, he know his job very well ,breakfast is also good but bathrooms too much problem as it is open and no ventilation, secondly taxi drop you very far as the road is close , so b prepare to drag your bags to the hotel.
