10 night stay with family

We returned from Istanbul on 29th August following a 10 night stay at the Meserret Palace Hotel. We were a little apprehensive given some of the reviews, however, our stay was amazing. Yes, the property is a little dated, but that is to be expected for a property over 100 years old in a city like Istanbul. The roads are manic outside the hotel and horns are honked constantly, but you have to appreciate that you are incredibly close to many of the tourist attractions. Do take ear plugs if you want silence at night/early mornings. Our room (Exclusive Suite) was dressed in a traditional Ottoman style. Housekeeping arrive daily and if you miss them or need anything extra doing, you only have to call Reception and ask. Breakfast is traditional turkish fare. This may not suit those looking for a continental breakfast UK style, but it was fresh and regularly topped up. I saw some negative comments about the Manager, but we found him to be professional, caring, attentive and welcoming, a lovely man. Front of house staff are wonderful, all 4 of the young men we met were so friendly and happy to assist in any way they could. A special mention goes to Çan and Recep, both always greeted us with smiles on their faces, Çan especially went the extra mile with advice on the most efficient way to get around the City and hidden little gems to visit. We would happily stay here again. 5 Star Service all around.

Great location, but bring earplugs

Positives: The hotel location is perfect, within walking distance to the Grand Bazaar, Spice Bazaar, the major mosques and Top Kapi Palace, and from Eminonu pier for boat trips. You can also walk across the Galata bridge to get to Galata very easily, or take the tram. Great location. It’s also very clean, can’t fault that, and the staff in general are very helpful. Can, who was on the front desk during the day was very friendly, had some funny stories and was willing to help us with anything, we really appreciated him. The breakfast is ample to start your day, and if you want hot options, they cost a little extra, but nothing more than you would pay outside the hotel. We had a double room, and it was spacious and the bed was comfy. Negatives: The hotel could do with a little updating. Not too much that it loses its charm, but just a little like a deep clean of the carpets (or new carpets), and adding more storage space and shelves in the rooms. It is also very noisy. We didn’t mind the traffic noise after the first night (Istanbul is alive 24/7, so expect traffic noise at all hours of the day if you’re in the old town), but the rooms are apparently soundproof, and I can tell you, they are not. We were woken up every night by a group of ladies staying down the corridor coming back late and shouting and banging doors every night. To be fair to the hotel staff, after we told them about it, they did stop them. Overall, good stay, great value for money, and very convenient.

Avoid this place. So many better in Istanbul

The staff were not honest or transparent. A couple of times they pushed us into places of lower quality saying it was the best and clearly it was about their kick back for sending people there. Over 3 days we didn’t get a room cleaning once.

Lovely location, near the coast. Built in the 1800’s, so be prepared to visit a bit of nostalgia. The room decor suits the era the building was built in, which is spectacular. The staff are great. The rooms and bathrooms were quite clean. The family room was large, with three single beds in one room and a larger, king size bed in another. The are was spacious. Only down side was that there was a smell of onions and food coming into our side of the room from either the vents or below kebab shop. Otherwise a recommended hotel for a few days if you wish to stay near to the Istanbul sites.

Room was amazing!

The family room was excellent and really beautiful. 3 twin beds and one king. Room had a refrigerator, safe, great AC and really nice washroom amenities. The room was absolutely fantastic. High ceilings and made me feel like a king. Only complaint is that there is quite a bit of street noise. Otherwise the hotel itself has spiral staircase, tiny elevator. Breakfast was ok. Nothing absolutely amazing but I think it was very traditional and not my type. They had everything including pastries and scrambled eggs, etc.

Very convenient location, staffs are friendly and extremely helpful. Stayed at the Executive suite which has 2 rooms and spacious but the room with Queen bed doesn’t have a closet or any place to hang clothes. Suggest hotel to look into this. Mattress is firm and soooo comfortable which rested our bodies after long walks around the city. There was a sewer smell in the middle of the night on our return stay at suite #206 but not on our first stay with suite #106. The smell went away after 30 minutes. An old charm but updated facilities.

Superb hotel

The place is near korcyki tram station. At the centre of shops and restaurants. Safe to go around even in the evening. HUMAY, the staff in reception is really helpful that makes our check in smooth. She guides us on how to get to places. The room is clean, super comfortable bed and pillows. Enough size for the 3 of us. Delicious breakfast which is included when I booked this hotel. All staff are polite and accomodating. They make sure that all our querries are answered. I will recommend this hotel to whoever is visiting Istanbul Turkey.
