This is an amazing experience! If you want to feel like a guest in the palace of a king/sultan - I’d highly recommend. What a slice of amazing history. Perfectly preserved and kept by the amazing staff. Walking in through the doors feels like being teleported back in time. Do not miss a chance to experience a stay here while you are traveling through Istanbul

The hotel and room look beautiful. It has a great terrace upstairs and a beautiful lobby for great memory pictures. The staff was very helpful. They gave us room prepared for the child. The only problem was smoking was coming from the other room and then later it was a construction very noisy. Also, the bathroom was pretty messy. The shower did not work well.

This hotel is a hidden jam if you consider its decor, location and price. It’s indeed an Italian palazzo, and if you like the style, it’s your choice! I expected the hotel to be dated but it’s recently renovated or very well maintained. Wonderful breakfast on the roof with the city and Bosporus view. The location is in the heart of the city, you can walk to almost everywhere.

The Hotel is central, location is cool, about a minute or two walk to the famous Istaklal street. Lot of bars and restaurants within a few hundred meters. However, the hotel needs maintenance and deep cleansing!!! Breakfast was just ok, house keeping just ok!!

Hotel has a lot of potential, however we were unable to enjoy our stay due to the temperature of our room. A/c advertised but was not available (I suspect they simply did not want to turn it on). Room window faced inside the building so it was very dark and we couldn't cool the room naturally. It never dropped below 27.5°C. Could not use swimming pool as a swimming cap is needed which they charge quite a lot for if you do not have your own.

We loved our stay at the Palazzo. Staff were very welcoming and the room was like the photos. We got an early check-in which was much appreciated as we were so tired. It was really lovely staying there.
