The reason to stay at the Novotel Istanbul Bosphorus is for a night's stay before or after an ocean cruise. Novotel delivers on good location (we walked to our cruise ship with our luggage in tow), the rooms were clean and the a/c worked! HOWEVER, we were unfortunate to receive a room that was directly over a bar that played loud thumping disco music until after 2 am (and this was on a Wednesday night). After two nights of very little sleep traveling to Istanbul, we desperately needed a good night's sleep! Unfortunately, that was impossible in this room. Consequently, I would consider a different hotel in the same area next time.

Novotel is a great place to stay if you want to be near everything. Lots of shops and restaurants as well. Old city is very accessible for sight seeing, shopping and dining around Galata, Taksim and Istiklal is very easy to do as well. Hotel was super clean, quiet for a nice restful sleep after a long day. Amenities were fabulous too! Will definitely stay here again when I visit Turkey again.

Very well-located: perfect for those who need the port, close to the main attractions, Bosphorus ferries in all directions, plenty of restaurants, and a stroll along the brand-new luxury promenade with the best view of both the bridge and the Golden Horn. But the hotel itself is as basic as it gets. No design, uncomfortable beds and pillows, and a very impractical sink. Don’t book the “Bosphorus view” rooms — you can’t really see it, and you’ll get all the noise from the promenade and the street. Rooms facing the inner courtyard are the best — simply because they’re quiet! In short, it’s a great budget option if you’re not looking for anything fancy.
