The room decoration was tastefully done, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. One of the highlights of my stay was the delightful tea time, which included a selection of snacks that were both delicious and satisfying. It was a lovely touch that made the experience feel even more special. The staff truly went above and beyond to ensure that all my needs were met. They were attentive and willing to help with any requests I had, whether it was arranging services or providing recommendations for local attractions.

We had a wonderful 5 nights at the hotel. The staff were friendly and very helpful. They were informative and arranged a guide for a day - an excellent experience. The location was perfect, near to trams, ferries and the metro, with lots of places to eat. We particularly enjoyed the breakfast and the afternoon tea and cakes at the hotel. The rooms were large, despite being in a busy area after 11pm it was very quiet. No hesitation in recommending this hotel.

Terrific staff from greeting to departure. Everyone smiling, helpful, knowledgeable and going out of their way to help with bags or whatever. Lovely large room, spotlessly clean and well furnished. Excellent buffet breakfast for about $12. Perfect location in the old town. Walking distance from Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Basilica Cisterns, Spice Market and Bazaar. Reasonably priced, right in the center of endless restaurants and shops and fronting on a trolley, if you are so inclined.

The Romance Istanbul Hotel has a fantastic location with easy walks to Hagia Sofia, the Blue Mosque, and Topkapi Palace, and the tram lines. The hotel itself has a superb breakfast buffet, lovely comfortable rooms, and the best staff that I have ever encountered in 50 years of traveling. I truly felt sad leaving for the cruise ship. I can’t recommend it enough! And special thanks to Hakan and Onder for their help and restaurant recommendations!
