Golden Horn Bosphorus Hotel

From the moment we stepped in, greated with warmness and kindness and a glass of lemonade ☺️ We were skeptical about the location, but as soon as we reached, we were more than assured. They were kind enough to accommodate us at every step. The rooms are nicely renovated and clean. They have a small cafe below where you get all types of teas and coffees complimentary (love that). There is a rooftop as well which is great to sit and see the sunset and where you have a nice view of the galata tower. The location is near trams, lively neighbourhood, its easy to get around places from the location and the hotel staff were kind enough to lend us their Istanbulkart as well. Lastly their luggage storage helped us on our domestic travel during our stay in turkey as well. The only drawback was that there was no restaurant at the hotel itself. So breakfast is something to think about during ur stay. But they recommended a restaurant nearby. It had been an absolute pleasure to stay here. The location, the service, the hotel rooms, the rooftop, the complimentary drinks and the staff, all were top tier. We loved it to the point where we extended our stay. Huge shoutout to Majid (“the golden boy” as I’ve heard and have no doubts about), who welcomed us so warmly. Took good care of us during our stay, guided us on spots to go and provided us amazing recommendations. His attention to detail, ability to handle things on the spot and care for each guest is admirable, making sure we were comfortable during our trip. My mom is a very picky person when comes to hotels, and I am happy to say that she was pleased with the whole arrangement and service the hotel has provided. The staff are amazing, quick and detail oriented making our stay more memorable. Just as warmly Majid and Hayrullah welcomed us, Utkan warmly sent us off. Kudos to the team! Already planning our next stay 🙌🏻

Clearly good enough that we chose to extend. Special mention to Majd and Utkan who are AMAZING!

The people at the front desk is very friendly and so nice i was only there for a day but I would like to staythey for more days! Its right i. The middle of the old town next to the tourist attractions Utkan and Ali are so nice five stars!!

Utkan , ali and aziz there were very helpful I enjoyed staying here Very clean and comfortable I recommend it

Our stay here was wonderful! The room was very clean and comfortable, and the location was super convenient — easy to reach everywhere we wanted to go. What impressed us most was the amazing service. Our flight was delayed, and we didn’t arrive until around 2 a.m., but we were still warmly welcomed with a welcome dessert and drinks. That really made us feel cared for after a long day of travel. I’d especially like to thank Majd and another staff member from Korea at the reception. They were both incredibly professional, always smiling, and made everything feel calm and well-organised. I also noticed how kindly and attentively they served other guests. Overall, we’re truly grateful for their hospitality — it made our trip to Istanbul even more memorable. I’d definitely stay here again on my next visit! 🩵

The hotel is located within a walking distance from all the major attractions of the ancient part of Istambul. It's also great for exploring the city as M1, Marmaray and ferry stations are all close by. All the staff are very friendly and helpful, speak good English and some Russian. The rooms are not big, but have everything one might need. Another advantage of this hotel is that they have a rooftop terrace with a wonderful view on the Golden Horn and the city on the other side, moreover they serve free drinks there 24/7. You can also enjoy the view from you window if you book one of the top floors.
