Cagaloglu Spa Hotels & Resorts

We stayed at this hotel for 7 nights and really enjoyed it Compared to other 5 star hotels in the USA, it is not a 5 star. However, considering it is in the old city of istanbul, I will rate it even as 6 stars as the room sizes are very large compared to other hotels in the area. The morning breakfast is very good Location is excellent next to the train and the Masri Bazar

Glad I picked this wonderful hotel for our stay. It was a short visit but a great experience. The staff was so accommodating and pleasant. They made sure all our needs were met and they also made sure they helped in any way to help us get around the city with very knowledgeable information. When I travel, I always like trying a new hotel or a different part of city if I return to same city. If returning to Istanbul, we would return to this hotel no doubt about it.

Staff is AMAZING and the breakfast OUTSTANDING quality and selection

We stayed at Gulhane Park for 3 nights in October 2015. Great location and very easy to get to the bazaars, mosques, cistern, Hagia Sofia and well connected if you want to travel further. Simple Turkish places to eat nearby and very quiet, which is good after a day of walking! Heating doesn't work in the winter, so make sure you get extra duvets in the room. Bathroom is clean and the room pretty standard with TV, dresser, mini fridge etc. Extremely helpful hotel manager - Mehmet - who moved us to the 1st floor after we discovered a leak in our room, due to two days of persistent heavy rain!

Very comfortable hotel with friendly staff and great facilities - much needed in the heat and turmoil of Istanbul.

We stayed here due to its location and proximity to the old city so we're not expecting anything fancy - from the moment we stepped into the lobby we were pleasantly surprised Thank you Orka for a fabulous stay

Our hotel stay was a fantastic experience at this lovely hotel in the heart of old city. Proximity to tourist attractions, dining, shopping and light rail was stupendous. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our stay immensely. We recommend this Doubletree Hilton without hesitation.

Pros: location is within walking distance to all the major tourist stops like topkapi and the blue mosque. Staff speaks English and will help you with whatever you need, very friendly. airport transfer is only 25 lira, rooms are inexpensive and right next to some good food options. Wifi works well, AC works well. Large buffet breakfast available till 10am, mostly turkish style and with some cereal and bread alternatives, very good. Cons: tiny cramped shower with an overextended shower head that will randomly change directions and spray the whole room, installed too high. Provided shampoo/conditioner/body wash is all the same soap and not great. Fridge didnt work, room smells vaguely smokey. Lots of street noise, can clearly hear the lobby phone at all times. Tip: don't book tours or use the Hamam through the hotel, the tours are priced in euros and are much more expensive than necessary. Go for an audio tour at each tourist site instead and look for an authentic turkish Hamam with good reviews.

I wll defenitly recommend this very well located clean confortable hotel with an exceptional and welcoming staff

The location of the hotel is great, close to everything. But it is located in the street with some restaurants right in front and the owners are very aggressive. We had to change the way we came back to the hotel just to avoid them. It was noisy at night but still manageable. The rooms were comfortable but wifi which we needed since we had some work to do too was spotty in the rom. I wish they would remove the carpets and replace with wooden floors ... Just much more cleaner. The staff was great and so was the breakfast in the mornings.
