limited breakfast options

Delightful staff, great location, bit of faded glory with loads of character. Can't wait to visit again!

i liked the style of this hotel! i was feeling myself as a Agatha Cristy!

a) Amazing rooftop views, historical charm

a) Cleanliness issues

The service was attentive with parking nearby. Our rooms were big size and luxurious with single bed as well as seaview. The personnel was attentive and knowledgeable.

Overall very good stay for a 5 days Xmas holiday. Huge room, tidy with a view over the golden horn. Good area, central location right by istanbul of the 1900's and the metro station and bus stops which give easy access to the main tourism attractions of the city...

The atmosphere is steeped in rich history, capturing the essence of its 19th-century roots. The rooftop terrace offers a charming spot to enjoy drinks and soak in the views of bustling city life below.

Wi-Fi struggles to keep up. The bathroom is due for an upgrade-old and cramped, a bit of a letdown given the potential this place holds. Even with the windows shut, street noise is relentless.

The historical charm of the place captured me instantly, and the rooftop bar overlooking the Golden Horn is a total gem. The architecture is fine, and despite the simplicity of the breakfast, it had everything I needed. The staff were attentive. An authentic experience ☀️

The unique historical charm of the Grand Hotel captivated me right from the start. The terrace view overlooking the Bosphorus was amazing, a perfect spot for morning coffee. I appreciated the art deco furnishings, reflecting the character of days gone by. The staff frequently smiled and offered assistance. While the room was spacious, the lack of air conditioning was quite uncomfortable, especially at night. I found the bathroom amenities lacking and cleanliness could be improved. Breakfast options were minimal, fitting the basic standard for Turkish hotels but didn't necessarily meet my expectations. The vibrant yet noisy street outside kept me awake at times, disappointing. The hotel's value for money in such a central location cannot be overlooked.

The hotel's amazing rooftop views offered us a perfect spot to unwind after our treks. Its historical charm and ambiance added to our unique experience. The attentive and friendly staff were always eager to assist, and the culinary offerings at breakfast reflected local flavors.

We encountered some cleanliness issues .

Charming rooftop bar atmosphere

This was a well-suited match for a quick stopover in Istanbul with great value-to-price ratio. Enjoyed the rooftop terrace for evening drinks with a fantastic view. Check the closing times of the bar to avoid issues with service.

We loved exploring the vibrant energy of Taksim, with its buzzing cafes and lively atmosphere. It was perfect for family outings, and my nephew particularly enjoyed the local bookstores. The hotel's ambiance added charm to our adventures.

In my wife's opinion, more breakfast variety would be great.

Had a fantastic time enjoying the charming rooftop bar with its fine views and soaking in the rich, authentic decor. The lovely garden provided a peaceful escape, perfect for sipping coffee and relaxing. The only drawback was a slight issue with the bathroom setup, but it didn't ruin my experience. Definitely check this place out! ☀️

Historic charm with modern touch

The terrace bar for sunset drinks was a total highlight, but the room could've used a bit more TLC. Staff were super friendly and always down to help, and breakfast was decent. If you love a good story in a hotel, this is the spot!
