Pera Sultan Suite Hotel

A calm, cozy spot about a 10-minute walk from Taksim Square. My apartment had twin beds, a locker, and a mini fridge, and the bathroom was spacious. The staff were welcoming and glad to help. I’d come back next time.

The air conditioner worked really well, and the room was clean and decent. Staff were polite and helpful, and for the price, the stay was good. The location wasn’t great, with dirty streets nearby. The shower leaked a little, and at times it got loud at night, with footsteps and outside noise coming through. We’re not light sleepers, so it didn’t bother us, but keep it in mind if you need real quiet. The Wi-Fi was very unstable.

This is a fair-priced place with kind, helpful staff and a calm, safe feel in a lovely traditional alley. Taksim Square and public transport, including the metro, van, and bus, are no more than four minutes away. There are lots of supermarkets and restaurants nearby. The rooms were clean, the sheets tidy, and each room had a safe, electric kettle, and fridge. They’re small, about 10 or 12 square meters, and really just suitable for sleeping, but the price is fair. If you want a luxury hotel with spacious rooms, a scenic view, lots of facilities, and staff to carry your bags or serve you around the clock, this isn’t the place. For acceptable accommodation at a reasonable price with nice staff, it’s a suitable option. I’d definitely choose it again if I return to Istambul.

We spent 10 nights here and had a comfortable stay. The staff were great and the location was perfect. The only problem was that the internet didn’t work properly.
