Every detail was very good from the beginning, including location and staff, I loved it. The room was cleaned and available with an open terrace and balcony, for example.

    The hotel is conveniently located close to many historic attractions, making it easy to explore the city. Guests can enjoy a delicious breakfast with a variety of options available. Plus, some of the rooms offer stunning views of the nearby mosque and other iconic landmarks.

    Some guests have reported issues with room cleanliness upon arrival.

    During my recent visit to Istanbul, I had the pleasure of staying at a lovely hotel in a great location. The hotel was situated in the heart of the city, just a short walk away from popular attractions such as the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The convenience of being so close to these iconic landmarks made exploring the city easy.

    Great location in the heart of the historical center. Close to major attractions and easy access to public transportation. The breakfast terrace offers amazing views of the city and the food is delicious. Comfortable and clean rooms with free wifi.

    No soundproofing in the rooms, so noise from the surrounding area can be bothersome. Lack of a restaurant or bar on-site could be a disadvantage for some guests.

    Amazing view, varied breakfasts. Delicious coffee. Free wifi. Close to famous spots and tram line. Ideal for sightseeing. Free airport pick-up and smooth return shuttle. Incredible staff, early check-in. Excellent location, near mosques and restaurants. Hotel is decent and centrally located. Lobby lacks atmosphere, rooms are small and noisy but clean. Helpful staff, cute on-site cat. Good breakfast options and beautiful rooftop terrace. a wonderful experience with tours and hamam.

    I stayed at Rast Hotel for 4 nights and really enjoyed my stay. The location was excellent, just an 8-minute walk to the Grand Bazaar, with Starbucks and McDonald's conveniently across the road. The staff, especially Mr. Hamza and Mr. Gokhan, were very helpful. The breakfast buffet had a beautiful view and was served by Ms. Sevgi, who always made sure we had complimentary Turkish tea. The hotel also had a rooftop terrace with an amazing view. I will definitely come back to stay here again!

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

    The view from the terrace is breathtaking, with a stunning sight of both mosques and the river. The location is excellent, allowing easy access to historical attractions and the tram station. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, making for a warm and welcoming stay. Breakfast is outstanding, with a delicious variety and the option to have eggs made to order. Solo travelers will feel comfortable and well taken care of in this hotel.

    Felt well taken care of, with the staff always willing to assist and go the extra mile.

    The hotel's location was superb - most of the city's attractions were within walking distance, and there were many restaurants to choose from nearby. Transportation was also very easy to figure out, even when I was unsure of how to get to certain landmarks. The breakfast was great, offering an excellent spread of food with a fine view.

    Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.

    The best part of our romantic escape was the fine view from our room. We had a beautiful view of the city skyline and it made our stay extra special. The breakfast on the rooftop was also a highlight. We enjoyed the delicious food and the amazing views of the surrounding area. the hotel staff were friendly and helpful. They gave us recommendations for nearby attractions and made sure we had everything we needed.

    Great staff, especially Issa at Reception - fun, knowledgeable, and super helpful. Ideal location, close to main attractions. Good breakfast, just be careful not to leave meals unattended due to crows.

    Felt very lucky, no complaints whatsoever.

    This hotel is in a perfect location, right next to the main area and close to all the major tourist attractions. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet is delicious, and you can enjoy it on the rooftop terrace with beautiful views of the city.

    There was one staff member who was unhelpful and bordering on rude.
