We stayed here in May at the end of a trip around Turkey. the hotel is OK and has a very good hotel, but we found the entrance and lobby area to be extremely busy with lots of people coming and going. We did not get a good feeling of security at this hotel, as basically anybody can walk into... More

The service at the Crowne Plaza is very good. They do try to make it a worthwhile stay with help with your bags and great breakfast. They are a little slow on the coffee though...lol. The rooms are nice and clean with 2 bathrooms...more than enough. The location is great as it is a block away from the tram that... More

Sorry for not being Excited like I normally am with hotels of the IC Group. Loved the outer part, the entrance to reception area, but in spite of my upgrade as Platinum member to a suite # 4309, I thought the room was very outdated, something I have seen more often in older Crowne Plaza's such as Auckland New Zealand....

Overall good experience. Good price/quality. Very good location, one block away from the tram station (Laleli) that takes you to the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace and spice market; walking distance to the Grand Bazaar. The room was comfortable, nice bed and pillows, great shower. Breakfast was good with a wide offer. The hotel has a good wellness area, with a... More

Location is near the iconic Istanbul landmark, just several stop by tram. A fabulous hotel you will not regret. Annoying log in and log out on internet connection. Luckily the front desk offering me to use internet cable in the room which is far better than wi fi with its repeated log in and automatic log out options. Club lounge... More

Being a Platinum Priority club member, I received an upgrade to a small suite and complimentary access to the Club Lounge. Reception staff were very welcoming and informative. Free WiFi provided, with excellent connection and fast broadband. The Club Lounge was the only disappointing feature - rather cramped and, late afternoon, not much to choose from and no clean cutlery,... More

Situated within a easy walk to the Grand Bazaar and near a tram line that can take you to the grand mosques of Istanbul and the spice market. Beautiful lobby, large rooms, reliable air conditioning, spotless. Dining room a bit pricey when compared to nearby neighborhood restaurants.

Stayed at this hotel for 4 nights. Check-in went smoothly, although I felt that the receptionist was a little dour. The bell boy who escorted me to my room was very pleasant and welcoming. I was travelling solo and my room was a single room on the first floor (2109) with a view onto a busy side street. I had... More

Just returned from 7 day stay at this hotel. My husband is a gold card holder which enabled us to get a room upgrade upon arrival and access to the member lounge...which was virtually always empty! Attractive hotel inside but you'll go crazy spending too much time in the communal parts as they're continuously playing the same harp music...Claire de... More

Stayed here for 6 nights. The location is great - can walk to all the tourist sights and safe area. It is on the tram line which is great too. The service was generally poor (there were two exceptions where it was good). The gym was supposed to open at 7:30. Why so late I cannot understand. Hard to get... More
