The Pera Hotel - Istanbul

The truth, what's good and what's not

Really good location! Just a minute's walk to the train station and Istiklal Street. Borhan from reception was helpful and friendly.

On the downside, the night receptionist's behavior was intrusive and unprofessional, which negatively impacted our experience. The room was quite small and lacked basic amenities, disappointing expectations.

Had neat double room with the sink beside the bed and wake-up service was available in it. Having a hairdryer, a bidet, and a shower cap was a bonus.

My double room was fashionable with a work desk, coffee/tea makers, and TV. The bed was good, a bidet worked well. The hotel was in a marvellous location next to historical peninsula and also Anatolian side.

great location but some minor issues

Staying in the sea view room was amazing-the space was ample, perfect for a couple like us who needed some room to spread out. Our conversations with Borhan at the reception added a personal touch to our experience. Plus, the hotel cat was an adorable companion! I really appreciated the picturesque views. They made our mornings so much more enjoyable while sipping coffee.

I noticed that the bathroom could use more space for added comfort, which would have made our stay more relaxing.

The location was excellent and the hotel staff friendly and helpful. Clean rooms with very comfortable beds

The breakfast was rather poor and standard but ok for the price. Also the room was smelling after smoke, although not so much. However, it would be better if the room would not smell at all.

Hotel is new and still undergoing some construction. The rooms were very small and street facing rooms would get a lot of noise, although we were able to sleep through it. The shower was very small and the shower head was difficult to keep in it's postion while showering.

Perfect Base for Exploring Istanbul with Fine Views

Spent three nights in a double room with amazing views of the Galata Tower. The location was a dream, just steps from the Shishane Metro Station. Enjoyed the local dining options nearby, especially Sahrap Restaurant for breakfast. Be mindful of limited sound insulation from the windows!

The rooms were nice and stylish with great natural light. The double beds were v comfortable

The breakfast could have more vairiety and include scramble eggs/ omlettes.

The staff was really nice, and the rooms are very well decorated and comfortable.

Is small is kind of a B&B but still is very nice.

I spent 4 nights at this hotel and loved the central location, right near istiklal street and public transport. Unlike my last stay in istanbul, the staff were accommodating. The room had a beautiful view and was well decorated.

the bathroom was pretty cramped.

Amicable staff, modern, well-designed rooms on the top level. Friendly service offered. Everything excellent. In the middle of the city, close to a tower and a palace. Located close to bars and restaurants...

Best possible location to Republic Monument. New-fashioned room, comfy bed and QUIET atmosphere! Really helpful and very helpful stuff, excellant services with free wake up service and ironing.

This place was a well-suited match for a weekend break in Istanbul and offered good value for price. The large windows provided a fine view of Galata Tower, made our stay nice. Keep in mind the bathroom is pretty small.

Excellent location near Istiklal street, a metro station just in front of the hotel. Clean and cosy rooms (although small), staff very helpful. A parking near-by.

Poor breakfast.

Excellent location, near restaurants and metro. Small but tidy rooms, helpful staff.
