We spent our last two nights in Istanbul at this hotel, and found it was great value for money. The breakfast on the roof-top terrace was great, and the two cute hotel cats proved very entertaining. The free internet access in reception was really useful. Highly recommended more

I stayed at Hotel Peninsula for 12 nights in Oct/Nov 2009. It was terrific and I would stay there again. The staff are helpful and are a big plus for the hotel. The rooms are comfortable and cleaned daily. Room decore was average -- it's not a priority for me in budget accommodation. The shower is outstanding: plentiful hot water,... more

This hotel is ideally situated a stroll away from the Blue Mosque and offers tasty breakfasts, warm and friendly service and incredible views. The room was a little basic but great value. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to the roof terrace, not just for the views but to play with the cats who reside here too! A welcoming and... more

I have traveled to Istanbul many times with my family and have found Peninsula to be the place we will always stay. The location is perfect and the hotel is a beautiful little gem.

It's fantastically located for sight-seeing and the metro, and was very easy to reach from the airport on... more

Good value, great location, fine service. When I complained about a boat trip purchased at the hotel, they immediately refunded ALL my money - even though I was willing to pay at least half the cost. I definitely recommend this hotel to everyone more

We stayed here for 3 nights and the staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. They had so many tips about where to eat, places to see in Istanbul, they booked shuttles for us etc.. etc... Really great. The rooms were basic but nice enough and the terrace on the roof where breakfast is served (again the breakfast guy was amazingly... more

Stayed here for 3 nights in Sep 2009. Had a triple room. It was much smaller than i expected and hence the room got cramped once the bags were taken inside. The bathroom is reasonably fine in size and kept very clean. We enjoyed our stay here because of the location. The Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Sultanahment tram... more
