Good hotel, very close of subway, café, restaurants, stores, galata tower, Taksim square....

Breakfast 60 lira ,
Hair cut 45 lira
Shoe Shine 25 Lira ,

Perfect place for rip off the tourist.
Stayed total of 9 nights and not happy at all.Never ever go back again .

It's a good hotel, to me it's a good 4* though, not 5.
It was clean.
Room was big for standard category.
The conciege staff was very helpful.
The bed was not very comfortable. I would give it 3*.
Bath tub was a bit old, the drain had problems.
The hotel's location was not an advantage. not sure if there's a police starion or a hospital in the area, but we couldn't sleep from the constant siren and that was a real issue when we returned to the hotel tired and in need of good rest.
I won't stay at this hotel again. good rest is important for me.

I stayed for 4 days in the marmara taksim Istanbul from January 1st til Jan 5th and I stayed I many hotels in many countries and I can say this is one of the best ones ! I left the marmara ery satisfied and happy with customer service, friendly staff , amazing concierge staff very helpful, good breakfast, amazing bosphur view in my room, and the location is just amazing the view from the Lobby. And I would say the marmara made my trip amazing to Istanbul and I advice anyone to consider this hotel when visiting Istanbul and I'll def go there again
