Highly highly recommend staying here. Rooms were amazing. We paid extra to have a hammam room but I promise it was worth every last dollar. It’s close to Taksim and that’s where we wanted to be. Nightlife only a few steps away and it was great. They also have an amazing Spa and hair salon on property.

Very average 5 star hotel. More like a good 4 star Hotel to me. I believe it was a bit pricey for overall experience you would expect from a 5 star hotel. However, the breakfast was really good. The room was clean and organized. Every time I wanted to take a shower I had to let the water run for about 10 minutes or even more to get a hot water.

The location is perfect and is close to everywhere… transportation public or private are very close… would recommend it for all travelers who are looking for a 5 star hotel yet not so expensive

A very special thank you to Perihan for her wonderful work, attentiveness, kindness, and genuine desire to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Employees like her truly represent the heart and soul of a hotel. We would also like to praise the excellent cuisine.

Bathroom: 10/10 – Loved the bathroom, especially the shower! Hospitality: 100/10 – Outstanding service! All staff members were friendly, kind, and helpful. Special thanks to Perihan from housekeeping for her attention to detail and genuine enthusiasm in ensuring our needs were met. Rooms: 8/10 – Comfortable, but the décor could use updating. The bedroom rug looked dated, and the mattress was a little too firm for my preference. Location: 10/10 – Excellent location, close to Istiklal Street. The HAVAIST airport bus stop was just a 3-minute walk away, making airport transfers incredibly convenient without needing a taxi. Breakfast: 9/10 – Amina’s omelettes were consistently delicious! I would have appreciated more international breakfast options. Value for Money: 10/10 We stayed six nights at Barceló Istanbul and had a wonderful experience. The exceptional hospitality truly made our stay special. Thank you to the entire team for making us feel welcome and comfortable. A special thank-you for the lovely birthday cake arranged for me. That gesture was priceless! We can’t wait to return. Highly recommended!

Great location, just a short walk to Taksim. However, in my opinion, this doesn’t feel like a true five-star hotel. The rooms, service, toiletries, and breakfast were more in line with a four-star hotel. Overall, it’s a good choice if location is your priority

The room wasn’t up to prior standards. Two years ago my room was spotless and very clean. This year the sheets wouldn’t get changed everyday, the toilet was terrible, the cleanliness was not like it was two years ago. I would even tell the housekeeping about my comments and they were always said ok but when i come back at night i see no changes..It was noticeable that the women in the housekeeping team are better than the men. During breakfast, the smell of the utensils was awful daily. However the whole staff for the breakfast team was very very good and accommodating.
