The breakfast buffet was adequate and good value. My only reservation was the thickness of the walls - not very well soundproofed. The staff were extremely helpful. VG | 14/01/2010 Rate: 7 The hotel was overall nice. However, be prepared for a small room, although mine had a gorgeous view so it compensated for the lack of space. Probably the worst thing of the stay is their breakfast - same options every day and those (cold cuts, cereals and weak Nescafe coffee) were not that great to begin with. I think it was slightly overpriced for what it had to offer, but generally good. I also believe for that price, especially off-season, they might have offered a free ride BOTH to and from the airport. Michael Bostwick | 11/01/2010 Rate: 10 The Byzantium is the perfect boutique hotel! The rooms compact and immaculate with incredible views. The terrace provides an ideal panorama of the Bosphorous and Sultanahmet. The staff are friendly and courteous. They are always on available and will go out of their way to help. The location of the Byzantium could not be more ideal with a short but picturesque walk to the Blue Mosque, Aya Sophia and Topkapi Palace. My stay? Perfect Luca | 11/12/2009 Rate: 10 I spent 3 days between 3rd and 7th of December in Byzantium Hotel and I can say very clean hotel, gentle personnel great location close to the main monuments the only remark I can rise is lack of sound insulation between each room, that could be improved to give more privacy to guests Anyway my opinion still stay positive, I will use stay at this hotel again if got vthe occasion Luca, Treviso (Italy) Marty Haub | 10/12/2009 Rate: 10 The staff at the hotel was very polite and helpfull. Melisa was most knowledgeable about activities that we inquired about. She gave very good instructions and reccomendations each day. The breakfast was always on time and fresh each day, with a good selection of choices. The location was excellent and convenient to the old town. Also good location to metro and train. The airport pickup was great and also easy to arrange with return trip. Our room was small but comfortable. It was kept very clean and nice during out stay. I would highly reccommend this hotel and will stay upon our return to Istanbul. Aileen Hill | 15/11/2009 Rate: 10 Excellent tourist hotel. Very well situated,clean and really obliging and friendly staff. Sian Smathers | 10/11/2009 Rate: 8 Great location. Very clean. Charming, helpful staff especially Melissa, the Customer Liaison. Good buffet breakfast. Complementary afternoon tea/coffee and cake was a nice touch. Compact spa in the basement is worth a visit. Note: we had reserved a superior double room with seaview for all 4 nights. However, it was not available on our first night and we therefore had to move rooms on our second day. The standard double room was tiny. The superior room was as expected. We were given a small discount for the inconvenience. Also, the internal walls are rather thin - suggest taking ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. We would return to this lovely hotel. Sabina Prendergast | 21/10/2009 Rate: 9 very cozy - staff was great - Ed Tiley | 18/10/2009 Rate: 6 positives;- Excellent location with great views from the rooftop terrace, just a short walk to many of the very best sights in Istanbul. The staff were better than good - they were excellent. Melissa, their tourism advisor, was really helpful. Downside:- very small room without even enough space for a chair and a tiny 'bathroom' with no bath, just a shower. Regula Berndt | 07/10/2009 Rate: 7 Great, central location Very friendly staff, especially Gengiz from the reception Great terrace with a wonderful view Hard beds (too hard) Very clean Nice breakfast Good value for the money Antonio da Cruz | 24/09/2009 Rate: 9 The Byzantium Hotel was a pleasant surprise in all aspects. Wanting to stay in the heart of Sultanenmet I selected the hotel off the internet using istanbulhotels.com. Having been disappointed on previouss web based bookings were wide angle lenses and night shots make even the most dreary hotel look posh. The Byzantium did not dissapoint but exceeded my expectations. The views of the bosphorous , blue mosque, etc from the hotel are astounding. The location is spot on for a city vacation. The cherry on the cake was the staff. Very professional and friendly. To all the staff at the hotels, keep up the good work. Antonio da Cruz A D Rousead | 20/09/2009 Rate: 9 We stayed at the Byzantium Hotel, Istanbul for 4 nights in mid September 09.We found everything first rate - the staff could not have been more helpful or courteous; the rooms were spotless with linen and towels changed daily; the Turkish bath and massage centre in the basement was excellent; and, of course, being in the centre of Sultanahmet it was the best possible location.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are planning our next trip there. Shawn | 17/09/2009 Rate: 10 This hotel was fantastic! It was located just a few blocks from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, the staff was excellent and we'd definitely stay here again. We had a sea side view and great service. Stathis | 16/09/2009 Rate: 9 We stayed for 4 days(27-31 Aug 2009) and really enjoyed the magnificent view over Marmara sea (room on the 4th floor at the back), the perfect location of the Hotel in the heart of the Old City, the helpful and kind hotel stuff (special thanks to Melisa at the reception) and the more than adequate breakfast. We went to Insambul by our car with my wife and my 6 year-old son and we parked at the "Otopark" one block away, with the cost payed by the Hotel (60 TL) and we were pleased with the easy access to Kennedy Kadesi and from there to all the main roads around Bosporus. Overall it was a pefect choise of Hotel and location in a reasonable price.The only thing that could be better is that we would have prefered to have breakfast up on the terace with the manificent view over Marmara sea, Agyia Sofia and Blue Mosque, instead of the basement, since the weather was perfect. Jackie Mitchell | 13/09/2009 Rate: 9 I was travelling on my own and found the hotel to be in a great location for the sights. It is on a street with other hotels and cafes and small supermarkets so there are places to sit if you don't want to go far. The hotel is clean and the staff go out of their way to be helpful. It was quiet outside at night when I visited - September. The only negative point was that the only way to use the steam room was to buy a massage package. I would definitely stay there again. Artem | 06/08/2009 Rate: 7 Very nice hotel. I had room with perfect seaview. Room was clean and good furnished. Good personnel. Nice terrace on the roof. Hotel is located very close to tourist attractions. Breakfast is on avaerage level. Main issues: breakfast is served in the ground hall, not in the roof terrace. Air conditioning does not work properly living at its own. alexandra | 05/08/2009 Rate: 8 comfortable hotel with great location. new rooms, neat and with a nice terrace on the top roof. staff was WONDERFUL, breakfast good, nice view from room. only problem was overbooked first night. But the staff did the best to ompensate us for that 1st night Melia | 24/07/2009 Rate: 8 Comfortable, clean, located within walking distance to many shops and of course the Sultanahmet, Haðia Sophia and Basilica Cistern. The staff were very very friendly and helpful. Value for money. Raed | 30/06/2009 Rate: 9 I want to thank all the hotel stuff for all the great services and welcoming for us , i think it was a great experience to discover Istanbul through the Byzantium Hotel , the location of the hotel is very nice and beside the most historic symbols of Istanbul City , the Health club and Turkish hammam in the hotel were a fantastic experience for me and my wife . Now i know whenever i want to visit Istanbul next time which hotel I'll choose . Raed Seddek Dubai-UAE 30/06/2009 Ari Fuad | 29/06/2009 Rate: 9 We very much enjoyed our stay at the Byzantium. We got 2 rooms, one double for our two teenage boys and one with a king size bed for us. The location is perfect, close to key sights in Sultanahmet, and the rooms and amenities were excellent. Rooms and bathrooms are clean and modern and the water pressure in the showers was excellent. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had nothing to complain about during our stay. It was warm during our stay but the air conditioning worked great and despite being on a busy "tourist" street, the rooms were quiet at night. Highly recommended. Andrea Bertoz | 11/06/2009 Rate: 10 Clean, very good position in town. Ideal for a short vacation in Istanbul. Only thing to improve, the room are very small. Best regards. Andrea Bertoz Markus Büchel | 23/04/2009 Rate: 9 Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Angestellte. Ziemlich neu renovierte und saubere Räumlichkeiten. Hotel liegt an bester Lage. Top Dachterrasse mit fantastischem Ausblick. Türkisch Bad mit Massage ist empfehlenswert und absolut preiswert. All children under 2 years stay free of charge for cots. All children under 6 years stay free of charge when using existing bedding.
