"I don’t like it smells bad"

"Extremely disappointing experience. The room was not as described, unhygienic, and had visible mould in the bathroom. Our window looked directly onto a construction site only metres away, with constant noise and no privacy as workers could see straight into the room. We raised the issue immediately but were only offered another room if we paid extra. We were forced to check out early after one night. Would not recommend."

"Had a lovely 3 day break here, room was lovely. Great breakfast and really helpful friendly staff"

"I had a wonderful experience at Swissôtel The Bosphorus Istanbul, and I especially want to thank Bellman Cem for his outstanding service. From the very first day, he was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. When I wasn’t happy with my initial room, the hotel kindly arranged a change, and Cem went above and beyond to assist me with the entire process. He made the transition so smooth and stress-free, helping me with my luggage and making sure everything was perfect. His positive attitude, professionalism, and warm personality truly made a difference in my stay. It’s people like him who turn a good hotel experience into an exceptional one. Highly appreciated and definitely deserves recognition!"

"Great location, friendly staff. Cleaning of the room was great, high standard and lovely cleaning lady. Breakfast choices limited for us personally. Mindful of the level of noise from outside traffic depending on the room. A/C was temperamental and had to keep the door open at night hence all the noise from outside being an issue. Would recommend staying if you want good clean room and perfect location."

"Brilliant location. Stunning rooms (booked the balcony room, so worth it!). AJ on reception was excellent. So knowledgeable, helpful and efficient but also made me feel very welcome."

"I really enjoyed my stay , special thanks to Kudret for her hospitality and always there to help in any matter , special thanks to Selma for her hospitality during breakfast she was always there to answer any question and to make sure guests are served in the best way, thanks to all staff at the reception all very helpful , fast check in and check out. I have one suggestion to the cleaning staff , daily cleaning needs improvement they only make the bed and change the towels , no dust cleaning or floor cleaning during my 4 nights stay ! I am sure they can do better Breakfast is very good may varieties and healthy options. will come back soon... thank you"

"Great value. Excellent location. Charming staff. Would stay again."

"It was an outstanding experience. You can truly feel the vibe of that era wherever you go—whether to the Agatha Restaurant, the Orient Express Bar, or the Turkish hammam."
