Room were very nice, staff was great polite, friendly and helpful
Usman, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Don’t park your car here unless you want dents

The reason for the overal poor rating is due to our car having multiple door dents that resulted within the hotel parking grounds. So if you have a nice or newer car with no dents we would not recommend parking here. They need to incorporate valet parking to avoid this. Guests were careless obviously and now repairing the door dents (5 new ones) will cost more than the few days of accommodations. Aside from this disaster the hotel was clean and located in a very walkable spot. Breakfast was good and the service prompt. Beds and room were comfortable and typical of a 4 star rating.

It was one of the best experience of my life. Staff is number one in my list of traveling for past 30 years. I want to return to visit Turkey and the only reaosn is to stay in this hotel and meet the great staff. I will highly recommend. The manager was always there to help me and my family.

Very bad hotel to stay at. Refrigerator, television dont work. Maintenance unwilling to make an effort to fix what's broken using the excuse "No English". Bathroom wall leaking water from hotel laundry. You can hear next room conversation.
Melissa, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Had someone claiming to be a repairman try to get into my daughter’s room at 1:30 in the morning. Luckily she had the secondary latch in place. When we reported it to the desk, they had no record of a repair request and acted like it was no big deal. VERY POOR SECURITY FOR GUESTS…
Gul, 1-night trip

Excellent place

The Kalyon Hotel was suggested by my friend who lives in Istanbul. We really liked the closeness of the hotel to the Sultan Ahmet where majority of the touristic attractions were accessed by walking. Our room was facing to the Marmara sea. The room was quiet and clean. There was a minibar refrigerator. It was empty and hot at the beginning. If you run the air condition and leave the enclosed furniture door open (not the fridge door), the fridge will get cold enough to have cold water. You will not have ice but the front desk can send you a bucket of ice. Ask the front desk how to go to Sultan Ahmet. They will open the back door for you. It is less than 5 minutes to Sultan Ahmet. Otherwise, the map shows 15 minutes. The front desk, Enis, Ekrem, and others like Fatih and Omer (sorry I couldn’t remember all the names) were absolutely kind and answered all of our questions. We highly recommend this place. One more thing, the hotels in Turkey run in different way. We shouldn’t expect the same kind of facilities and the same styles. Be a little open minded and pass your recommendations to the hotel so that they can implement. Thanks Kalyon Hotel for making our visit to Istanbul memorable.

Gulhan, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Breakfast was okay. Staff gave the impression that requests were a nuisance, which may be a cultural thing. It was recommended that we don't drink the tap water, and most days 4 oz of water was provided and if we needed more, it was available for a fee, not high but much good will could have been earned at little cost to them if it were provided gratis. Cats! If you like cats, Istanbul is the town for you and they wandered through the restaurant, even jumping on the table if you had left to get something. Again, a cultural thing, just something you don't see anywhere else. Bed was not particularly comfortable, I would suggest replacing it. The location is excellent, walkable to the famous mosques and Topkapi palace, right on the waterfront and close to good restaurants.

Good accommodation. Access was improved from my last visit with a new light railway station within 100m to Sirkeci.
John, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location was good. We were able to walk to many places within 10 minutes. The view of the sea was amazing! The rooms were a good size. The restaurant breakfast was expensive- Twenty Euros a person- so we chose to eat at the local restaurants on the main road overlooking the sea. The front desk staff were not that friendly. They did not give us a warm welcome when we arrived. They didn’t smile, were short with their answers and didn’t look at us while checking in. The door man and the bellhop were very kind and warm with their interactions.

Linda, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Average Hotel. No reason for them to be this expensive. I have better experience at Hilton in cheaper price. Rooms are not sound prove. Rooms are also interconnected, means there is a door between 2 rooms. Random ppl knocked on my room 2 nights in a row.
Mohammad, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel has a great location overlooking the sea. The staff is friendly. The breakfast is great in general. However, if you’re going to stay multiple days then it becomes repetitive and may consider taking the breakfast elsewhere. When I was booking this hotel, I read some bad reviews related to the air conditioning. I think this must an old problem. The air conditioning is very good now.
