The location is excellent and the staff are great. Special thanks to Irem from the front desk and to Kader who helped us in luggages and car parking. Also, thanks a lot to the chef girls as the breakfast buffet.

The rooms were not up to par. The bed sheets had what appeared the be animal hair, walk ledges were dusty, bathroom tub had a ring and everything was out dated. However staff was very friendly and helpful.

The location is unbeatable. My room was a little small but bathroom was really small. AC fan was too noisy. Staff was kind and valet service was really cheap & convenient. Breakfast was satisfactory. Pool at the roof is tiny but it was a lifesaver at the heat of the day. Price vs what you get is fair I think. I can definitely stay again.

Had a great stay at Marmara Pera Hotel. The place was clean, well-maintained, and the breakfast had plenty of good options. Staff were kind and responsive—we even got a free upgrade to the top floor with an amazing view. Only downside was the language barrier, as few staff spoke English, but overall a great experience.

We always stay at the hotel in Istanbul as the staff is nice and the location is perfect for overnight traveling.
My only dissatisfaction is that the offer paid upgrades, meaning that there are rooms available, however we have never been upgraded as a VIP Expedia member.

We've stayed here a few times. It's nice for the money if you can find a deal. Rooms were clean but could be in better shape for a 4-star. A rewards program would be nice. Overall very good stay.
