The location was nice right next to the shopping area which is a big plus. But at night, may also be noise because of the bars nearby. And for our stay the WiFi in the room didn’t work properly. The swimming pool at the top was quite winding, and small.

Had a great stay at Marmara Pera Hotel. The place was clean, well-maintained, and the breakfast had plenty of good options. Staff were kind and responsive—we even got a free upgrade to the top floor with an amazing view. Only downside was the language barrier, as few staff spoke English, but overall a great experience.

We always stay at the hotel in Istanbul as the staff is nice and the location is perfect for overnight traveling.
My only dissatisfaction is that the offer paid upgrades, meaning that there are rooms available, however we have never been upgraded as a VIP Expedia member.

We've stayed here a few times. It's nice for the money if you can find a deal. Rooms were clean but could be in better shape for a 4-star. A rewards program would be nice. Overall very good stay.
