Amazing service in the heart of Istanbul. Utkan Ali greeted us with wonderful welcome drinks and told us about the area and the best sites. The hotel is in easy walking distance of all the best sites in Istanbul. We really enjoyed the roof top terrace and complimentary Turkish coffee and tea.

Two things really stood out for me at The Golden Horn: the room quality and the super helpful staff. The room was so spacious and comfortable, with a wonderful Bosphorus view. As for the staff, nothing was too much trouble - reservations, recommendations, advice and help. I felt extremely well looked after.

Outstanding stay from beginning to end. The staff are, without exaggeration, the most helpful I've experienced at any hotel, ever. I wish I could remember his name to praise him as he deserves, but the gentleman who was working when I checked didn't just check me in. He walked me over to the couch, the other staff brought a welcome drink and Turkish Delight. He asked what brought me there and when I said tourism, he brought up several sites to see how much I know about Istanbul,pulled out a map, marked where they, discussed walking times and distances, and a suggested itinerary. If we requested something for the room like fresh towels they were brought up quickly. They were helpful with a spa, restaurant reservations, airport transportation. The room itself was the nicest I've stayed at in Istanbul but the staff alone is good reason to stay here.

From the moment we arrived at the Golden Horn Bosphorus Hotel, we were impressed by its immaculate upkeep and warm hospitality. The reception team greeted us with traditional tea and Turkish delight—a charming touch that set the tone for our stay. Our room was a highlight: spacious, modern, and impeccably clean, with excellent air conditioning and a modern bathroom. We had a wonderful view over looking the Bosphorus to watch the constant flow of ships and boats. While the rooftop offers stunning views, it could benefit from better furnishings or amenities to make it more inviting for guests to linger and enjoy. The location was perfect, we enjoyed walks to major attractions with many restaurants nearby. Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations. Its combination of comfort, cleanliness, and unbeatable views makes it a place we’d happily return to. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable stay in Istanbul.

Excellent choice in a great location

Wow. We were able to check in very early having arrived on an overnight flight with an upgrade to sea view. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and get to know you individually. The room was large with an excellent walk-in shower. There are free drinks readily available with turkish delight as well. The hotel location is great - right next to the park that you can walk through to reach some main attractions such as Topkapi Palace. An excellent choice that provides service the way it used to be.

I had a wonderful experience at the Golden Horn Bosphorus Hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and professional. Majed, Utkan, Khair, Aziz, and Mohammad all made my stay enjoyable and hassle-free. The room was spotless and well-appointed, featuring a comfortable bed and modern amenities. The location was perfect, just a short walk from great restaurants, shopping, and offering a stunning view of the Bosphorus. I absolutely recommend this hotel; it is ideal for solo travelers, couples, or business trips. I will definitely be back!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Best hotel ever. So central for exploring the city and right next to Gulhane Park (a quiet refuge). Plus the Marmaray underground is just next door - one stop to the Asian side of Istanbul. No noise from trains either. Staff went the extra mile, first time I’ve ever known all the staffs’ names! Rooftop view is fabulous and there is a swing chair for your enjoyment. I spent every night watching the sun set over the Bosphorus. Free tea and coffee plus nibbles constantly offered to us. Excellent WIFI.
