GLK PREMIER Sea Mansion Suites & Spa - Special Class

This hotel is 2 blocks from the Blue Mosque and Hippodrome. Excellent location. The staff is extremely helpful and accommodating. They went above and beyond expectations. You will not be disappointed. Excellent WiFi as well which is rare in Turkey

Friendly staff

Great location, great view, great staff

The breakfast could be better..

Loved the location. Staff friendly and helpful. Had lots of fun in the spa, which is booked (free) for private use. Good selection of restaurants and bars nearby. Easy walk to all attractions.

Don’t fall for the super “special offer” of half price or more discount. That is absolutely nonsense.The place is fine, rooms are clean and showers have good water pressure.We booked a corner sea view room and paid for the best room to only walk into a tiny room with a tiny window with no sea view from the room, only from the balcony.We asked immediately ti be moved but it was only possible from the next evening.Breakfast was so mediocre with no eggs to order, instead they have boiled eggs and cheap viennas. They have a coffee machine but it only serves instant coffee. It was actually very disappointing.You have use of the sauna and hammam for one hour - which is not enough at all. They give soap, shampoo & conditioner but no scrub for the hammam , which is quite pointless.Ali was a fabulous and very friendly bell boy, waiter and ‘water deliverer’ to the room.Would I stay there again? Definitely not, it is totally over priced.

good location-5 min. walk from the tram stop, very kind and helpful staff, delicious breakfast. Beds are comfortable to sleep in, everything is clean and tidy?

As someone wrote here - the furniture is worn out? the jacuzzi in the bathroom is broken...

The room was spacious and relatively close (10 minutes walk) from the main points of interest.

The bathroom door did not close and they forgot to bring us towels.

Friendly staff and an excellent Turkish breakfast buffet. Superb location within a short walk of all the main sites in the old city. Pretty quiet despite being above the railway line.

We booked an airport transfer as our flight arrived at 23:55 but it didn't turn up and we were not informed of this so had to get a more expensive taxi.

Amazing hotel in the heart of Istanbul. Close to the city centre and all turistic places .The hotel and the room were spotless, we stayed here for one week and every single day housekeepers cleaned our room to a very high standard. Reception team is all fantastic and helpful. A special thanks goes to Salih, nothing was too much trouble for him. Great breakfast choice served from professional and helpful staff. Thank you everyone for making our stay exceptional.

The staff was very nice and helpful

The room we got across from the main blg. I believe I had asked a higher room with a balcony . We didn’t have an elevator and are not young travellers. We had to step into the shower to get in the bathroom comfortably and the space between the toilet and sink I barely comfortable. If you are bigger people, it’s a problem.

The hotel was lovely. The breakfast area/restaurant was amazing, it has the view of an ancient roman palace + sea. I heard from staff that the chairs and tables in the restaurant were newly renovated and they were beautiful. Other than that the hotel is in a serene location but also is close to Sultanahmet Square. I loved my room, I think I was upgraded. Room was clean and spacious. Staff was friendly and professional. I would definitely stay in this hotel again when I come to Istanbul. I think this place is a semi hidden gem. Interestingly they make great latte macchiato and homemade cheesecake!!

I loved everything about the hotel

They took extra care of us to make it feel comfortable. Arranged for room upgrade and Turkish Bath etc. There location and breakfast was also good. They have very nice reception and other staff.

The complementary water bottle was given for the first day only, where as in all other hotels that we stayed in Turkey had complementary water bottle everyday after room cleaning.

The location, the quiet

I book a room with sea view and they say there didn't have such a room and gave me a very small room. So after complaining for 3 day the changed me to a better room but still not the sea view I paid for.The fitness studio is just some walking machines and a rack of small weights

The location of the hotel was excellent, right in the heart of Sultanahmed's historical district. The hotel has limited rooms with balconies and sea views, the breakfast was appalling.I booked a sea view room with a balcony and when I arrived, they offered me a small room with a limed sea view and a very small balcony and they changed to the room that I had booked it after two days. Staff are very friendly and specific. MR. SAELH. Instead of Sultanahmet, I would recommend staying in Karaköy, which has more life and plenty of cafes and shops open until late at night.

Breakfast was a disaster.

The staff are amazing. Ibrahim and Ali were so helpful. Thank you guys.Location was excellent, close to all the sites.Hotel was very clean.

It's a small hotel.Its not a 5 star.The breakfast was so basic. Not enough variety.

location, view. Easy to get around.nice comfy bed

I would have liked to have dinner. having said this, it made us go out and explore, some very close nice restaurants

Room - Good, they shows with balcony but be careful they have one more building just opposite to the original hotel in which they do not have balcony. Also there is a strange stinky smell at the inside the entrance of the building.Location - Superb, correct place for the Blue Mosque/Hajia sofia/ grand bazarBreakfast - Be there at 9am, or else you have nothing to eat and the staff really do not bother to serve you if you are non-white, if you are white they will come to your place and serve you even if you are almost late to your breakfast. I felt and experienced that.

Nothing new or much in the breakfast.Wifi is not working in the new building.Ask for the room with balcony, do not worry if you are white they will automatically give the room with balcony, i think.Spa is not interesting?More important bad experience i have faced is - Dinner in bosporus elite cruise ship - where they should pick you up from the hotel and drop you at the hotel. They have picked me and my family [wife and two kids] from the hotel and drop me somewhere which i do not know away from my hotel at midnight 12.45, i have struggled to get back to my hotel after 25 minutes of walk and there is no one to ask on the road and i do not have mobile date on my mobile to navigate to the hotel and at last with the help of traffic police, he gave me the direction which i have fallowed and reached the hotel at night 1.30. When I explained this to the hotel they simply said they will check with the elite cruise and no sorry and no compensation and nothing, simply they do not worried and if you are white it might have a different case....!

Great location, lovely room with ocean view, excellent breakfast buffet AND a tiny lobby bar if you wanted to grab a drink for your room.

More English language TV channels.

room view was real Seaview clean place location is good for the price

no elevator (lift) one of the buildings.breakfast limited choices could been better.

Loved everything about this hotel. The views, the staff, the decor. It was all so wonderful.

It was a little hard to get to by car, but that’s to be expected in the heart of the city. The location was perfect for walking.
