Wonderful hotel with excellent service and roof top breakfast. It was worth spending extra for room to get updated room with larger shower. Comfy bed.
Lisa, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel

We were very satisfied with our stay. Hotel is very close to major attractions. Very clean, good breakfast. And the restaurant has a nice view! Staff were very friendly and ready to help. Specifically thanks for letting us checked in earlier, we were very tired after a long trip. We had a very early flight home, the driver they provided was waiting for us when we checked out. They even brought breakfast to our room at 4:45am. Highly recommended this hotel if you visit Istanbul.
Meilu, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Checking into this hotel is like joining a family. They have gone the extra mile each and every day! Besides having a beautiful view of the sea we are treated to a massive breakfast array of foods! The restaurant has an unbelievable view of the most famous sights of Istanbul and the lunch and dinner menus are quite large! We went back to stay 3 different times!

Beautiful hotel with a lovely staff. Location is just a short block away from the square where the Blue mosque and the Sophia Hagai is located. Beautiful rooftop restaurant with delicious food.and an amazing view. Shops and restaurants are everywhere in this location. Would definitely stay here again.

Location is right in the middle of all the major sites. Close to transit so you can get anywhere in the city from there as well. No complaints at all. Great Turkish breakfast and amazing views on the rooftop lounge.
Mark, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Can't beat the location, near all the old city attractions, surrounded by great restaurants, even if they look touristy. The terrace restaurant has amazing views. Helpful staff, convenient shuttle to the airport for 50 euro. A little porous for sound, but on a quiet street for the most part.
Guanqing, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place. Literally 2 minutes to Hagia Sophia. Front desk super helpful, amazing cleaning service and the best breakfast that I had in a long time with an incredible view. Definitely will recommend it.

The Magnaura Palace Hotel

This hotel was perfect for my friend and I. The entire staff was professional, warm and friendly and especially helpful. Their recommendations for tours and places to see was great advice! Although a very busy and tourist-packed area, the location is perfect for first-time visitors like us, who wanted to see the ancient places. We hired a private guide through the hotel who was very knowledgeable and informative. The hotel also arranged rides for us, made reservations and educated us on public transportation, which is by very good in Istanbul, and very inexpensive. The inclusive breakfast is wonderful, and the rooftop restaurant was very good with many menu choices, great service, and beautiful view of the Golden Horn and Bosphorus.
Stephanie J, 3-night trip

Staff were so friendly & helpful. Breakfast was a bit repetitive, but plenty to eat. Rooms were comfortable & clean, great choice of toiletries. Brilliant position, within walking distance of Blue Mosque & Hagia Sophia & Metro stops. Would highly recommend.
