The hotel is in a very strategic location, close to the Galata Bridge, and close to all transport links (ferry, tram and bus). The staff were super friendly and accommodating - always smiling and offering to help make our trip memorable. The room was very clean, spacious and modern with all the amenities that we needed. The breakfast was very generous and there was a lovely view from the terrace. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Our stay at The Wings hotel was nothing short of exceptional. I absolutely loved everything about this immaculate hotel. The staff are very friendly and helpful and the hotel is so beautiful. Our room was a good size and very clean. Location is also convenient and close by to everything. The view is breathtaking from the rooftop restaurant.

Clean, convenient location to everything. Staff was excellent. Would have been nice to have the option for wine or beer on the rooftop. We didn’t utilize this at all because of that and it is a nice rooftop. There is undeveloped property right beside the hotel that hopefully gets developed soon as it is an eyesore to such a nice area. Not the hotels fault, and I would still stay here again.

Great Hotel, good amenities and access to roof top restaurant. Location is probably the best. Karakoy has so many dining and shopping options we could have stayed there all of our time in Istanbul. It is also next to the ferries to the Asian side, light rail and tour boats, Taksim square etc. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Would recommend this hotel to anyone.

FRANCISCO

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel is centrally located with beautiful view of the Bosphorus. Quality of service by employers is outstanding. It is kind of inconvenient that there is a construction site right in front of the hotel which seems to be suspended due to archeological discoveries, limiting access by car and creating confusion among taxi cab drivers. It is not the fault of the hotel but it poses logistical challenges which are compensated by the amazing view of the Bosphorus.

We stayed in two corner suites at the Wings Hotel in Istanbul and were genuinely impressed. The rooms were elegant, spacious, and beautifully designed, with stunning views that made our mornings and evenings especially memorable. What really stood out, though, was the staff. Everyone was warm and attentive, going out of their way to make our stay comfortable. A special shoutout to Mert, who personally showed us to our rooms and took the time to help us navigate Istanbul’s public transportation system. That kind of thoughtful service made a big difference. Highly recommend this hotel if you're looking for comfort, style, and genuinely helpful hospitality.
