My wife and I planned our first trip to Turkey and a friend recommended the Valide Sultan Konagi Hotel. First, the reservation process was easy and we took them up on their offer to pick us up at the airport. Our flight was delayed and re routed resulting in a five hour delay and they were able to respond mid... More

I just returned from 6 nights at Hotel Valide. It's a real treasure, located just a few minutes walking form most of the sites, yet very quite and peaceful. The hotel is so well maintained and managed. Rooms may be a little small but tasteful decorated, small marble bath in my room 0 3rd floor and heated floors which were... More

This hotel is in a good location and has a spectacular view from the breakfast room. Some of the staff were great, some were overattentive in a way that was a little disturbing to me as a female traveler on my own for part of my stay. The rooms are small but well maintained and clean. Breakfast was very good... More

We visited this hotel 10 years ago and I can vouch for the fact that the location is great. I tried to book again but they were full. But they did have an apartment I could have instead so we took it. It is in a private bulding on the 4th floor a five minute walk from the hotel (they... More

The rooms are small but charming, as one would expect in a boutique hotel which was the former residence of the Turkish Queen Mother. The... More

My mother and I discovered the little restaurant on the top floor of this hotel on the last night of our trip. It was slightly away from the lively strip of restaurants nearby so was very peaceful and tranquil. It had the most stunning views of the Aya Sophia, the Blue Mosque and the Bosphoros! The menu wasn't that diverse... More

Almost boutique hotel with nice interiours. Nice room, but quite small. This is the reason, why I rate as an average. Was nice furnished, but for dolls mainly. On a site of our room was a lift and emergency exit and also some ventilation, making noise in the night. Breakfest was little bit dull especially the salty part - 3... More
