Marmara Region Vacation Packages

Receptionist was very nice

Hamitbey hotel is one of those little 'jewels' you find when you dig through the huge number of options for hotels in Istanbul. Clean, quiet, and very close to all major attractions (I recommend using the train or taxi for convenience). Close to multiple EXCELLENT restaurants. The only drawback is the bed - I am 6 foot 2 inches tall, and so I had to sleep at an angle. However - the bed was comfortable and I slept like a rock! The breakfast bar is EXTENSIVE with many options to fit multiple palates - lots of vegetarian selections. The food is well-prepared, and of course the coffee and tea were excellent! Finally - the staff are wonderful at pointing out attractions and travel options. My husband was having tea in the downstairs bar as I was napping, and the staff invited him to sit with them as they had their evening dinner. So kind, and so welcoming. Just a wonderful experience.

Excellent property, beautiful views, professional staff. Thank you for the great service.

We absolutely loved the proximity to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia -- and our view of these was FABULOUS! The staff upgraded our room, gave us a tram card, offered valuable information regarding the city, holidays, transportation, etc and mostly they were just so nice. The breakfast was wonderful, but the menu was limited for other meals. Our room was large and the room darkening shades were much appreciated. We'd stay here again and recommend to all.
