Everything was perfect - location, room, staff, check-in, food tea/coffee, service, VIEW!!! Concierge Cem is fantastic, all people at the check in are fast, friendly and efficient. Executive room has the best view. Great stay as always!

On the negative side - Stella lounge was WAY too crowded at breakfast - too many people, not enough tables, lousy service because of the crowd. It would be great if families with kids (staying in apartments) had breakfast in the restaurant on the 6th floor, not in the executive Stella Lounge! Please. Also, the food could be a bit more various in the evening (6-8pm).

Room was great and upgraded by the manager. Very spacious however facing courtyard which was a pitty givent hat the hotel had a great bay view. I wish they offered of a price to get bay view.

- I made a reservation for terrace restaurant, surprisingly, it was not recorded neither by name nor by room number. - It could be great if such hotel offer shuttle or trasfer from the airport. - I hope they let the guest know if there is room vacancy with the Bay view so that they can choose. UnfortunatelyI was not aware that the other side of the hotel had such an amazing views, otherwise I would have definitely considered it.

The hotel is located close to Taksim Square which is convenient but far enough away from the crowds that flock to the area each night. From the moment we were greeted at the car to escort us to the lobby to when we checked out the staff interactions were highly professional and friendly. Our Bosphorus View Balcony room was beautiful and comfortable - perfect having spent 6 days at the start of our trip exploring Instanbul and on returning to the city we could enjoy the room and the other hotel features like the hammam in luxury with no tourist sightseeing pressures.

The cup of tea we ordered to drink in the lovely enclosed lobby balcony was terribly expensive...and no different to the excellent Turkish tea available throughout the country for much cheaper! We were also disappointed with the price quoted for an airport transfer with the cheapest option 189euro compared with a previous transfer arranged by another hotel for 45euro - in the same 6 seater minivan. We opted to book our own transfer through booking.com for a similar price to our previous journey.

Room was very spacious, we had our 9 year old with us on an extra bed and still there was plenty of room. The bathrooms were very clean with top supplies and lots of space. The hotel's location was wonderful within walking distance to Taksim square and Galata Port. Staff were super friendly, Jihan at Concierge was very helpful, Malak in housekeeping was such a lovely lady and kept our room super clean during our stay,

There was no where to hang the towels after a shower. It would be great to add extra hooks in bathroom or bars.

The room was fine and super clean the lightning control have multiple modes that you can be able to select from . Hotel breakfast was superb has a lot of different selections of food that would meet any kind of choices it also has a great window tables with nice view of the sea .

Well the room I booked was good I have selected one king size bed but when I arrive it was twin bed joint together and was so wide and there was a slim joining mattress between the two beds that I haven't expected to see when I already ask for one king size bed also the bathroom door made from glass and its not totally sound proofed so if you're with someone else you can't be able to act like if you're alone have to be carful with the sound if you know what I mean :) Also I hear our neighbor next door talking loudly and fighting all nigh when I talked to the reception when checking out I have been told that there are still working with the soundproofing walls for some of the remaining rooms I hope they get this fixed soon

I recently stayed at the CVK Bosphorus Hotel in Istanbul, and the experience was nothing short of spectacular. The hotel itself was immaculate, with every corner radiating cleanliness and elegance. One of the highlights was the stunning view of the Bosphorus, which added a magical touch to the entire stay. The service was top-notch, with staff always ready to assist in a friendly and professional manner. A special mention goes to the spa, where I had a perfect massage. The atmosphere was serene, and the massage was incredibly rejuvenating. Ari, the massage therapist, was absolutely wonderful—both lovely and highly efficient. She truly knew how to tailor the massage to ensure complete relaxation. I left feeling completely refreshed.

Réception Oguzhan was very nice and helpful! Our stay at the hotel was great and had good experience overall.

The breakfast was good but could’ve been better or have more options overall

Nicely located near several attraction area. The Hotel facilities and rooms and equipements, as well as the personal, was above standards. The breakfast is nearly a one of a kind but for sure, a very rich and tasty one.

Rooms doesn’t have balcony. Rooms are not well isolated for sound. We was unlucky with very noisy neighbour.

Ideal location, just a few minutes from Taksim Square and the unique İstiklal Street, and only a short walk to the Dolmabahçe Palace. The facilities are modern and luxurious; we had a room with a simply breathtaking view of the Bosphorus (two photos attached), and everything was absolutely flawless. The restaurants and bars are excellent; on behalf of the other staff, we would like to mention Mr. Mert from the Stella Lounge, who always served us with exceptional kindness at breakfast; all of them were exceptionally friendly and thoroughly professional. We are truly grateful to the hotel and its staff for the wonderful stay!

Our stay at the hotel was truly a wonderful experience. The location and facilities were exceptional, offering everything we could have hoped for. With our executive room, we enjoyed not only a delightful breakfast but also access to an open buffet from 1 PM to 10 PM. The food was superb—plentiful, varied, and absolutely delicious. The executive rooms and suites with a city view were very comfortable and stylish. Unfortunately, there were no sea-view rooms available during New Year’s Eve, but the city view was still lovely. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. While everyone was kind and attentive, special thanks go to Zeynep Torun from reception, Murat and Erk from the breakfast restaurant, Yusuf Kayacı from Stella Restaurant, and Onur from room service for their exceptional service. We highly recommend this hotel for its excellent hospitality, top-notch amenities, and fantastic dining options. We’re looking forward to returning in the future!
