Top Imperial Gate Hotel Reviews

Hotel Saba Sultan

8/10 Good

"Cleanliness: 4/5 Service: 3/5 Comfort: 3/5 Noise: 4/5 Overall: Relatively clean but worn down. The extended review... Cleanliness: 4/5 - Clean linens and sheets. Service: 3/5 - Standard service and breakfast was included. Comfort: 3/5 - Beds were relatively comfortable but the air conditioning took a while to cool the room down. Couldn’t figure out how the tv worked because it was hooked up to a cable system. Noise: 4/5 - Relatively quiet even as we faced the street."

"Great location, amazing view and the staff was super helpful!! Totally recommend"

Hotel Arcadia Blue Istanbul

10/10 Excellent

"Hospitality was a top-notch, the reception guys were so attentive, polite, and helpful and treated every guest like VIP. I wanted to give the special shoutout to Burat (I might have mistaken his name, the tall curly guy), he was so quick and professional. Hotel is beautiful and well maintained, the rooms are clean and well maintained as well. The location is great - all the historical places are 10 minutes away by walking. There is a tram if you want to go to Galata/Karakoy area, the whole trip takes only about 20 minutes. Restaurants, tourist attractions, money exchange places with great rates, anything you need is just right there if you don’t want to travel far! I saw a lot of negative reviews about the breakfast, but in my opinion it was solid - good variety, the food was delicious, staff were attentive and quick as well. Overall, I give this hotel 100 out of 10 and I will definitely be back next year. Already looking forward to it!"

"Helpful and friendly staff, great location, and breakfast included! Stayed here for 4 evenings and we enjoyed our time. Friendly and flexible front desk that coordinated our hotel transfer, so one less thing to worry about when visiting an unfamiliar place for the first time. Cleaning staff was cheerful and helpful. Breakfast was included and you get a European style breakfast with a slight Turkish twist. Good way to start off the day! Location was very walkable to the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and other sights. Lots of dining options within 1 to 5 min walk. Felt safe walking around, even at night in the area. I would definitely consider staying here again!"
