    It’s not perfect, but It’s memorable

    I enjoyed my stay for 5 nights! The location was fantastic, with tram access right outside and excellent dining options nearby. The cleanliness was commendable, and breakfast had a great selection. While the staff was generally helpful, a few moments of unfriendliness were noted. Overall, it contributed to a memorable experience in the city.

    Nice pool and sauna area.

    Our experience was marred by terrible service from staff who didn't speak English. We struggled to communicate and had to rely on translation apps for basic needs.

    terrace view
    clean rooms
    convenient location
    non-functioning pool

    We had such a memorable time enjoying the beautiful terrace view every evening! The hotel was conveniently located near the tram, making visits to the Blue Mosque and Agia Sophia with our small kids super easy. Rooms were clean and breakfast offered a nice variety.

    My kids wished there was a functioning pool since that's what we looked forward to the most. It would be great if the hotel improved their communication and service regarding facilities for families.

    Great location & breakfast

    We had a nice 5-night stay here. The breakfast was super good with lots of options and they switched it up a bit each day! The spot is ideal—just a hop to the tram, making it so easy to hit the historic sites. Only thing is, the window was a bit tricky to open.

    common areas

    I truly enjoyed the stylish decor and easy accessibility of the Darkhill Hotel. The modern furnishings complemented the traditional Istanbul ambiance, and the presence of elevators made navigating the hotel effortless for someone like me.

    More seating in common areas for relaxation would help.

    The breakfast was absolutely fantastic! ! Every day there was something new and delicious. I loved how the staff at the rooftop restaurant were attentive and genuinely cared about our dining experience.

    It wasn't inexpensive, but for the quality, it was still acceptable.

    nice decor
    clean room
    spotty wifi
    unstable shower heat

    The room was decent and had a comfortable vibe. We enjoyed the nice decor and amenities, but the WiFi was spotty at times. The shower was hit or miss. it didn’t always provide stable heat, which was kind of annoying. Overall, it was clean and well-kept, but a few tweaks could make it better.
