The Marmara Pera was probably a gorgeous hotel in its heyday. Unfortunately, it is showing its age and it's service does nothing to compensate. We checked in at 8 in the morning and our room, understandably, was not ready. However, when we came back at 4, we were given our key and entered a room that still was not ready.... More

Don't let the road works outside put you off, this is still a nice hotel with top notch restaurants. Take ear plugs while the underpass is being installed under the main square outside - the inconvenience now may help solve the horrendous road jams in the future. Reception fairly efficient at sorting out my booking problem, however my colleagues experienced... More

Although this is the same group as the Marmara Taksim, the quality and standard of service was far below the Marmara Taksim. Reception staff tend to answer the phone when they are in the middle of serving you!! Really annoying. They charge for parking despite seeing my car in the street most days!! I can park in the street myself.... More

We had a good experience at this hotel. Rooms are comfortable although bathrooms are relatively small. Breakfast is sizable and the staff is nice. Very nice rooftop bar with great views! Location is excellent - right off the big shopping street in Beyoglu and near the Tunel. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby as well. I would stay here again... More

Terribly consistent bad service from when we stepped out of the taxi to enter until we left. Rude front desk staff where you feel you are at the grand bazaar negotiating your way in and out. Other service staff are sparse if at all. Good quality breakfast is the one positive element. Rooms overlook noisy carpark and clubs. Pool as... More

Ok so we did not stay here we just went to the 17th floor at sunset to get a cocktail. 30$ for two gin and tonics later but amazing views of the city on a clear day. Just gorgeous. Staff were not so helpful or friendly, and we waited at the bar to be served whilst others seemed to be... More

The people working at the hotel are very friendly, some even speak fluently German (I'm a German native). Breakfast is good with many things to choose from and very international. Cooks are there to make you a fresh omelette. The roof top is amazing, great view over Istanbul, you can also see the Asian side of the city. However, when... More

We booked here having read all the rave reviews on this website. Location wise, high up rooms have a reasonable view 30 euros extra if you want sea view. It's directly opposite a taxi rank and near the football stadium. Not far from the main street. We arrived here and were initially shown to a twin room having requested a... More

Theme continues in the rooms really nice touches all round. Very quiet stay and right in the old town district with lots of everything happening just around the corner. Hoping... More
