Great location. I wouldn’t qualify it as a 5star hotel, smaller than it appears in the pictures. Very clean, not many extra or frills in the rooms. It’s a solid 4star.

The hotel really is a five-star property. It is luxurious and modern with elegant decor and extremely high-quality construction throughout. It felt like a brand new hotel. There was no sign of anywhere in tear that I saw during our two-day stay at this property. The location is excellent about two blocks from taxim square

I absolutely loved my stay at Barceló Istanbul, but the true highlight was the bathroom — more precisely, the in-room hamam. I couldn’t get enough of it! The heated marble, the sheer spaciousness, the luxurious feel… it’s pure indulgence and unlike anything I’ve experienced in a hotel before. Housekeeping deserves a special mention — top-notch service, incredibly attentive, and always thoughtful in the smallest details. The spa on the top floor is another world entirely. The hamam experience there, combined with the massages, is simply unforgettable. Barceló Istanbul is the definition of modern comfort meeting authentic Turkish luxury. I’d go back in a heartbeat.
