My wife and I stayed at the Sofa Hotel in Istanbul and found the experience exceptional. The Sofa is an amazing architectural building. The design is modern and unique and the rooms are elegant as well. What really distinguished the Sofa was the staff. This was our first visit to Istanbul and we are not the kind of people who... more

I have just landed to Istanbul after my long business trip around Europa and Middle East. My house is under renovation and I decided to stay in Sofa Hotel &Residence before moving to my new renovated house. I did my my reservation via web site. Hotel's web site is very clear and very informative. Very nice web site... After arriving... more

We're veteran travelers, so I don't write lightly that the Hotel Sofa is among the best places we've ever stayed. But it most definitely was. In addition to the usual luxe amenities -- good spa products, in-room safe and mini bar, lavish breakfast, spacious room, high-count bedding -- it offered such thoughtful extras as a free laptop and wi-fi connection... more

Our stay at the Sofa Hotel in Istanbul was an amazing experience. We have stayed several times and each time we are amazed at the professionalism by which the hotel is run.

When I was looking for hotels, this one stood out. It is fabulous in a very modern, edgy way. I booked the hotel through the hotel website and ordered a transfer from the airport to the hotel upon my arrival. On the day of my arrival, my plane was about one hour later than the arrival time that I quoted... more

The Sofa is in my opinion an excellent hotel conveniently located at a lively, 'high-end', part of Istanbul on the European side. As a business traveler, I have stayed at the Sofa many times and given the boutique nature of the hotel, there is more of a 'family atmosphere' that massive 5 star hotels may naturally lack. I have been... more

My wife and I stayed here on holiday in December 2007. We did a lot of research about Istanbul hotels, and in the end, were deciding between the Ritz Carlton and the Sofa. We are really glad we chose the Sofa for several reasons. If you like modern interesting hotels, this is the place for you. It is luxurious but... more

We stayed in this hotel for three nights in May. The Sofa , located in an upscale shopping district with mostly name brand stores, is a feeble attempt to be urban and hip. In fact, it's dark and dreary, miserably managed and horribly overpriced. Unlike other Turkish hotels, service is inattentive and lethargic, and staff very poorly informed. Any query... more

If you have been to Istanbul before and done all the touristic things and want to experience the young hip and trendy Istanbul. The area around Nisantasi is the place to live in. Many cafes, boutiques, restaurants in the area. Lots of girls spending daddies money:) LoL. Rooms are large and comfortable, great stylish bathroom with seperate shower and bathtub,... more
