Golden Horn Hotel

This hotel have only good location. Everything is to old and have some smell . The rooms is small and dirty. My friend hurt finger on the broken door Staff is really friendly but we spend only one night and move to another hotel

I spent a week in the hotel in September 2020 while waiting for my partner to join me. The hotel is in the centre of Istanbul, surrounded by hundreds of restaurants and other hotels. It's a 10-minute walk to cross the Bosphorus and get to many beautiful sites. The metro stop is at the end of the road for those who want to use public transport. The hotel itself is neat and comfortable. The rooms are sophisticated and nicely decorated, if not a little on the small side for two people with two big suitcases. The bathroom is a delight, though, being small but it feels luxurious. There some parts of the hotel that need some extra attention: one of my towels had holes and some the wallpaper in the hall was coming loose. There was only a small travel iron for the guests to use, and no ironing board, which was an inconvenience. In the wardrobes there were just 3 hangers, which for 1 person was difficult enough, but for 2 was impossible. The highlight of the hotel was the staff. They were extremely helpful and did everything they could to help, give advice, and organise anything we asked. The breakfast served in the morning was a treat. The staff really go the extra mile to help you, to make sure you are happy with what they serve and to make sure you get the breakfast they want. Polite and friendly, it was a lovely way to start the day and we looked forward going for breakfast just for the welcome of the staff. The hotel reception staff were equally as helpful. Whether it was helping with recommendations, finding local services and even taxis to the airport, the staff were always willing to help and seemed to have time for everyone without needing to rush. I'd definitely recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in Istanbul.

A 4 night stay turned into 14 nights due to unforeseen circumstances. The Golden Horn in Serkici is a lovely hotel. Situated in the historic Part of Instanbul close to many major tourist attractions and 5 minutes from Gülhane Park. 15/20 restaurants within 5 minutes of hotel and local shops. Metro tram station at end of road. Seckin Kaya and Waan in the restaurant are the stars of the hotel, breakfast always a treat and these guys were friendly helpful and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. Great views on the rooftop restaurant. The guys on reception always helpful too. In these awful Covid times felt very safe in hotel as all precautions taken. No hesitation in staying there again in the future.

I stayed here in March on a week long trip. The staff was very nice, and attentive offering tips for tours and providing us with tips regarding restaurants. The rooms were clean, if a little narrow, but I've become used to that. The restaurant in the hotel provided a free basic breakfast, but the view was the best part. The hotel is pretty centrally located and walking distance to several major attractions.

Excellent stay. Thanks especially to Seckin Kaya for making our stay comfortable. Very helpful, polite staff. Breakfast was good, accomodations were made to our requests and suggestions. Excellent view from the eating lounge.
