“Grand hotel showing its age”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

Enormous and imposing old hotel, long established and beautifully situated on the Bosphorus. The terraces (we had dinner outside, overlooking the twinkling nights over the water) are a huge plus, if you enjoy that sort of thing (which I do!). Dinner was tasty and we enjoyed it (service is swift and we were still eating as they took our plates... More

“Dishonest”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 May 2013 via mobile

A long standing establishment in Istanbul, we were initially pleased by the hotel. We arrived to a busy evening, as there was a convention underway. We waited about 15 minutes in line to check in with no attention anyone waiting. A very factory-like check in. We stayed in an executive room on the 6th floor overlooking the Bosphorous river. Each... More

“Standard Hilton - with a view”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013

I stayed at this hotel to coincide with a conference at their conference center. The hotel is your standard Hilton affair, with the addition of a remarkable view of the Bosphorus. The rooms are decorated like all Hiltons everywhere; the lobby is a little more special, with a nice coffee bar. If you are in Istanbul for leisure and not... More

“Classic Hilton - no surprises, but that's a good thing”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2013

Once we made it through horrendous Istanbul Saturday afternoon trafic from airport - 2 hours bumper to bumper traffic - arrived at an upscale Hilton property. We were somewhat surprised by the level of security, mirror check of cab for explosives and x-ray of bags but have encounted the same in NYC on occassion. I agree with the comments that... More

“The ease of doing business!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2013

Although my stay at the Hilton, Istanbul, was due to a business trip, I felt like I was on vacation! First of all, I chose the Hilton because the conference that I was going to, was going to be held there, at the Hilton Conference centre. I didn't expect too much of the hotel, because I was going to be... More

“Fine if you like characterless could-be-anywhere hotels”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 May 2013

Good food, good staff, lovely to have a balcony. The rooms are comfortable enough, but unbelievably dull, even by the low standards of international chains. You wake up with no clue you are in Istanbul - no sound of the call to prayer, no simit sellers, no ships' horns on the Bosphorus. The hotel is miles from anywhere, unless you... More

“Very good but as for most Hilton overpriced and need refreshment of room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 May 2013

Was there in september 2012 to visit Istanbul. The location of the hotel is great and allow easy access to the city center and place where night live is. The hotel itself is a traditional Hilton that would deserve to have it's room refreshed soon.

“Superb service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 May 2013

With a great location above the Bosphorus, the grande dame of Istanbul's hotels is distinguished by the friendliness of its staff, and their commitment to service quality. A landmark for some 50 years, the Hilton wears its years with distinction.

This is an old property, the location is excellent, but it is no where near a 5 star. The rooms are quite good in size, but it has not been renovated in a while (stayed in September 2012) The breakfast is great, the balcony evening tea/hookah is an experience that
