The hotel is close to the main attractions in Istanbul, but in a quite place. Everything was just fine, very polite, kind and helpful staff, comfortable bed, clean, spacious room, good breakfast. As an example, my wife left her cardigan in the airport transfer car, and with the leadership of Fouad the staff could get it back, a special thank to everyone involved in it! We felt that the receptionists, the cleaning team and the personal at the breakfast all worked very hard to make sure we could have a good time!

I had the most amazing experience with this hotel, I would totally recommend this hotel to everyone. I stayed 1 night in this hotel, I would say that their hospitality is top notch. I have travelled many times before to many countries but this is the first time I get a perfect service. The staffs are very Accommodating and Friendly. This is how a hotel should be like. Special mention go Mr Davut, he always brings his positive attitude with him everytime and everywhere, he brought to me and impeccable service. It would be amazing if in every hotel industry has staffs like him. And also Special mention to Mr Jhakalia, he too provided me with a excellent service, he offered me a free coffee and as the 1st guest in their hotel, they Gave me a Complimentary Wonderful Breakfast. I really Enjoyed my stay here and I will definitely come and visit again. The way they serve me made me feel special. I hope the hotel could always maintain this impeccable service, all the best endeavours for the hotel. Cheers 🥂

FAQs about hotels in Istanbul

The Best of Asia and Europe

The city of Istanbul offers a trip unlike any other, encompassing Asian and European cultures to create a heady mix of art, music and food. The amazing Old Town and the Sultanahmet are home to iconic Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia. More history is hidden in the Topkapi Palace, where you can glimpse the splendour and opulence of Turkey’s Ottoman heritage.

Take a stroll through the historic centre or the bustling Taksim Square before watching the sun set behind countless mosques and minarets. Local fish markets and numerous restaurants lining the bridge to Galata offer the Golden Horn’s daily catch.

If you prefer the fine art of bargaining to fine art, lose yourself in the Grand Bazar and maybe you’ll emerge with a hookah, some Turkish coffee, or even a carpet. The Spice Bazar further immerses you in the sights, smells, and tastes of Turkish culture.

Getting to Istanbul is an easy trip from Ataturk International Airport or Sabiha Gokcen Airport. Whether you want a luxury hotel on the Asian side or a budget hostel in Taksim Square, Booking.com has over 1,000 great accommodations for your holiday in Istanbul.

A fun crazy place. Don’t stay too long. Better off wanting to come back. Staying in the old town makes the best sense, otherwise you spend too much time in taxis. Tram and Metro works well, but takes some getting used to.

Istanbul is an amazing exciting city and should be visited by everyone during their lifetime. The only drawback is that there are now too many tourists and therefore I advise going out of season ...if there such a thing in this extraordinary city.

Istanbul exceeded my expectations in all senses.

Istanbul exceeded my expectations in all senses. It is a truly great city in all senses, and I absolutely loved pretty much everything in it. It is also symbolic in many senses geographically and historically, spanning two continents united by coming and going ferries, outstanding bridges and efficient tunnels. It is an expansive city which keeps growing at remarkable pace in all directions and no matter where you look, the views are almost always stunning. It is one of those destinations for everyone who could visit it at least once in their lives.

What stayed with me most was not a single monument, but the rhythm of daily life: ferries crossing the Bosphorus, streets that change character every few blocks, the coexistence of history and ordinary routines. I usually prefer to move on and explore places I haven’t been to before, but Istanbul is different. It’s a city that doesn’t feel “finished” after one visit. It stays open, unresolved, and inviting. This trip made it clear to me that Istanbul has earned its place on the short list of cities I would genuinely like to return to.

Amazing city!

Amazing city! It felt overwhelming at times because of its history and culture. The people were very nice and friendly, the food was absolutely fabulous, and the only difficulty was choosing what I wanted. I particularly loved the fresh fruit and vegetable stands at every corner, with the option to have your orange or pomegranate juice juiced in front of you. The history of this place is absolutely invaluable. At times, it felt overwhelming. Walking the grounds of Hagia Sofia, which Emperor Justinian founded in 532 as a Byzantine Cathedral, it was hard not to feel the weight of the centuries embedded in the walls and columns holding it up. The Blue Mosque, an absolute beauty and marvel of architecture; the Grand Bazaar, the Spice Bazaar, and the Cistern Basilica, to name just a few. It was an extraordinary experience. I totally recommend it.

It's a beautiful city, the historic places like Blue Mosque, Grand Bazar and touring in Bosphorous sea all good moments enjoyed. Please don't purchase any items near the Blue Mosque very very expensive, go to grand bazar , quality is the same and pricing is very good. You get the items at 10% value in grand Bazaar compare to the shops near the blue mosque. Rest all, people are very good, very safe place to travel.

I always stay at the Marble Hotel in Istanbul, whether with family or as a solo traveler. This December, I had three different bookings as I traveled to Bursa and returned. I've stayed here almost 10 times over the past three years, spending a total of more than 30 days. The hotel staff are very friendly and supportive. Eren is an excellent leader. The breakfast was outstanding, and the location is unbeatable—right at the heart of Taksim Square and Istiklal Street. December in Istanbul was exceptional, with amazing weather.

The hotel and staff were great; very good location and walking distance to Taksim Square, taksim metro, istiklal Street and all the restaurants, banks and anything one may need. The hotel itself is a very cute and modern place, newly renovated with clean fittings and interiors. Burak at the reception was always there to help with taxi bookings, other info about the city and always prompt on WhatsApp. Must stay in Istanbul. We are coming here again soon!
