Overall good stay, staff could be a bit more friendly and say thank you or smile more rather than staring at you. But overall helpful staff and attended any request. I was hoping for a room with king bed but they couldn't accommodate which was uncomfortable with two beds stivk together with a gap in between. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Wifi good but the login is with your exact birthday which is very weird. Hotel is not that well known taxis has problem finding the hotel. Room service food was average, not that tasty, missing condiments, except their French fries. Downstairs restaurant was good though. Hamam and spa jacuzzi are great and added to the experience. Massage was average, she did press very hard on my calf made it hurt for the day.

Our stay at The Barcelo was amazing. The hotel is very modern, clean and impressive. Our room was really comfortable, well maintained and cleaned daily to a high standard. The breakfast buffet was also fantastic but the thing that stood out the most was the staff. They couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating. I have to mention Aygul, Abdurramman (who made a first class cocktail!!) and Omer, all of whom went above and beyond to make our stay a memorable one. Barcelo is my hotel of choice when we travel to Istanbul from now on and I highly recommend it to other travellers.

Hotel was great, it is located across the street from Taksim Square so there are a ton of restaurants to choose from. We felt completely safe and one a short walk from the Metro. The hotel staff was amazing, we stayed on the 4th floor and our housekeeper was so passionate and he was so focused on making sure that we were taken care of. I would highly recommend this place to everyone, also it is worth adding your breakfast when booking as they have a great breakfast buffet.
