Stayed here for 3 nights for a city break in late autumn. We were allocated a lovely room, good size with great views over the Bhosphorous - requested in advance. The hotel is in a good location and a short walk to bars and restaurants. We ate in the hotel one evening and the food was excellent, although after dinner... More

My wife and I stayed there as part of a large company event and so we got upgraded to a very nice suite. As you would expect the service was good, the rooms were clean and the food was okay as you come to expect with the Intercontinental brand. It is located very near the soccer stadium so one night...

Expensive- but makes no bones or excuses about it. You get what you pay for. A bit over the top on the gaudy gold/crystal decor everywhere. Staff is fantastic- everyone of them. They value you as a customer and do their jobs well. The top floor restaurant and lounge is fantastic- views, food and ambience. Amenities are great. Rooms have... More

We stayed at this luxury hotel for the last three nights of our tour. After staying in two other so called 5 star hotels in Turkey, we were somewhat apprehensive about this hotel. However our concerns soon disappeared after we checked in. Our room was just so spacious and comfortable. Service staff did a great job. Breakfast was a bit... More

The one who called a cab for us, even took the cab's information to lodge a complaint if he... More

I've been staying in the Intercontinental for 3 days in April. A little bit old fashion, but a very good hotel. Good location, in front of the Taksim Park, near to a tramway station. Attentive staff and courteous concierge. Rooms are very spacious, comfortable and silent. The Bar on top of the hotel has an amazing view of Istanbul at... More
