We arrived at the hotel early and had hoped to have our bags kept while we went out, as our check in time was at 3 pm, but to our surprise, the young lady Aysha said that she could have our room ready for us within an hour, after a long night on the airplane this was a blessing in... More

We stayed 4 nights. The first night on the 5th floor was way too hot . we moved to the 3rd floor and the temperature was fine for sleeping. We loved the services at the spa - foot reflexology and shiatsu massage. The food for our tour group offered a wide variety for breakfast, and the first night light dinner... More

Recently spent three nights at the Barcelo Eresin Topkapi. I paid a little over $500 with breakfast included which I thought was an excellent bargain with this hotel. Before I get to the positives, there are two "negatives", if they can be called that, to address. First, the hotel bills itself as a five star hotel on many hotel websites.... More

We have just come back from 4 nights at the Barcelo and had read several reports on tripadvisor about it. All have some truth to them. We paid £125 a night on Last Minute dot com and it was the right price, much more and might have been disappointed. Our room, at the back of the Hotel, was fine. Modern... More

I stayed at the Barceló Erisin Topkapi for 4 nights in April 2013, along with 2 friends from work. We each had our own room and all the rooms met expectations. This is an older 5-star hotel located just inside the far reaches of the old city wall that once surrounded Istanbul. As other travelers have said, there is a... More

Stayed a week with my wife, three days business and four days tourism. Been in Istanbul before so we appreciated the location exactly on the ancient walls of Constantinople. In the walking distance there is the famous church of Chora with exemplary Byzantine mosaics. For everything else there is a tram station in front of the hotel. For 3 TL... More

We used this hotel over the Easter holidays for a 8 night city break to Istanbul, staying on a half board basis in the Deluxe Club Premium room. Found it suitable for our needs as it slept a family of 4 comfortably. Buffet service provided for breakfast and evening meals. The menu spread covered all nationalities and catered for all.... More

I spent four days in April 2013 in this hotel, having the opportunity to try its good level. I just could critizise the location, which is a litte far from the city. But the tramway line T1, which is in front of the hotel, reduces considerably the problem. During my stay I enjoied very much the internal spa, included in... More

Room Deluxe was ok, we'd rather had a shower than a tub in the bathroom. Good buffet with variations of tipical turkish food. Friendly and helpful staff. Interesting mixture of international guests. Perfect place slightly outside the busy centers of town and although next to a large street with a lot of traffic surprisingly quiet. Next mosque 100 meters away,... More
