Me and my sister stayed at this hotel for 6 nights, very beautiful hotel, close to main tourist attraction, not too far from tramway , all the guys that work there very nice and helpful, they do speak English, they are trying to help you with all your needs, I absolutely love their terrace, very beautiful view, that’s where they serve breakfast, love that breakfast included in your stay, it was very good, the only thing, I wish there’s more juice selection, not just orange, didn’t like the taste of that orange juice, other then that, it’s all perfect, salads good, one day they had this very delicious some pink dessert like pudding , wish it was there every day, yes I would stay there again and absolutely recommend this beautiful place.

This was my first time staying in Istanbul, the hotel staff was very helpful in arranging for transport to and from airport at ok price, and in giving suggestions for activities. Walking distance to Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, as well and Grand Bazar. Only criticism is that the room had smell of smoking in it, so i had to keep the airconditioner fan working the whole time to get rid of the smell.

I will always choose to stay here, for sure. The hotel staff was incredibly helpful and kind, the sea view was amazing, both at sunrise and senset and the location it's perfect, close to every important place of Istanbul. Thanks to Mr. Ali and all the staff members who made me feel comfortable and safe 😊

8/10 Very good

The hotel lies in a walking distance to the old bazar and the museums, the traffic in the area is horrible, so be aware not to rent a car if you are staying in this area in general. The hotel itself is old, but kept functional as much as possible, it is clean with daily room service. Rooms of reasonable size, the views towards Marmara sea are good from the top floor. As good as a budget hotel can be, functional clean rooms, and polite and helpful staff. The roof terrace was closed as per previous reviews so i doubt if it will ever be open.

Not that good

Nothing really positive to say about this hotel. The service was fine but not really good. Comfortable for that price but not clean as we would expect any hotel room. When asking for recommendations, they sent us to tourist traps or to very bad restaurants.

6/10 Good

The staff was polite and respectable. They did their best to help us.The hotel is clean. Our reservation was a standard room, but they put us in the first day in an economy room, but in the second day they transfered us to a standard room. Something which was very disappointed, there was a door between us and the next room, we could hear everything from the voice of the next guests !! it was so disturbable!!

Power cut due to water leakage

We were allocated a room with a bathroom that has water leakage from the ceiling, making the bathroom very wet. This has caused power cut in the whole room and we were told to just turn on the bathroom mirror lights. We asked to change rooms but were told there weren’t any availaility. Walls are also very thin and we could hear people from next door talking. Overall not a good stay but for £40 I can’t complain much.

Not a customer service environment. Ppl are plain rude their. Room had mold on selling.

Terrible decision to stay here!!!

It was our family trip along with our 22 months old baby. As seen in their pictures for Roof top breakfast experience we booked this stay but when we reached hotel they told us is closed and they don’t know when it will open again. Room we got with ocean view was very very small. They did not provide house keeping throughout our stay of 3nights 4days. Cheap quality small refrigerator was kept in room caused all the baby food spoiled. All of the Staff members are rude. We booked airport transfer thru them from IST airport to hotel & return; even though we communicated our baggage count to their receptionist, he provided small car/van both ways & were charged extra money by driver at the airport at the time of return drop off. There were so many disappointing moments we faced thru out the our stay which caused us to regret staying here. So think twice before booking at hotel Daphne. Thanks.
