a. Intricate interior decor
b. Cheerful reception staff
c. Excellent breakfast variety
d. Spacious bedroom

I had a pretty good stay, but the room was quite dark and didn't have much sunlight. The staff were really friendly though, so props to them!

The corner suite was spacious, but I found dirty coffee cups left behind.

Hidden gem with delightful decor

The hotel’s decor exudes charm, and the rooftop restaurant serves a refreshing breakfast with stunning city views. The cleanliness of the room made my stay even more pleasant.

Be prepared for significant noise disturbances from the nightlife. that rooftop bar can get loud, making it tough to find peace in lower floors. Guests have also reported inconsistent Wi-Fi availability, particularly in rooms, and a general need for better maintenance with some rooms showing signs of wear. The elevator situation is a hassle during busy times, with long waits being a common complaint, and room lighting in some areas is notably dim, creating a less-than-inviting ambiance. Some have mentioned issues with breakfast quality, lacking the expected variety for a hotel of its stature.

The Corner Suite was spacious with plenty of natural light and a cozy vibe, which made it a great retreat after a day out exploring. Loved the high ceilings and unique decor, really added to the charm. Definitely a standout feature was the cleanliness and well-maintained condition of everything. The only downside was that I noticed a couple of dirty coffee cups left behind, which could have been addressed better.

Charming place to unwind on a peaceful terrace, and nearby inviting shops and restaurants.

I really enjoyed my stay, especially the delicious breakfast options and the beautiful views from the dining area. The spa was a lovely retreat, and the Turkish bath was a great way to unwind after a busy day. The only downside was that the breakfast could be replenished a bit better later in the morning. 😄

Great hotel with great amenities like free Wi-Fi, a relaxing spa, and a handy laundry service. On my first stay, the staff helped me find places with a good exchange rate. I’ll be back for a business trip.

a cozy refuge with stunning sea views and exceptional historical charm

Palazzo Donizetti Hotel is an embodiment of vintage elegance. Its rooms offer a homely feel, while the beautiful breakfast restaurant provides marvelous sea views. The hospitality from the staff makes every moment special.

Recommend it for couples seeking charm

The corner suite we had was impressively spacious, and the classical decor was quite inviting. One evening, we enjoyed the sunset from the restaurant terrace, watching the Golden Horn while savoring our drinks, a true highlight of our stay.

It wasn’t the cheapest option, but I still found it acceptable.

It was just a prime choice for a short interlude in Istanbul with outstanding value for money. The rooftop view during breakfast was really enjoyable. Bring a hat if you plan to use the swimming pool.

the hotel has a great location close to historical sites and local restaurants. breakfast is really nice with great views over the golden horn. the staff are super friendly and really helpful, especially semih at the reception. our room was comfy and had all the essentials like cozy bathrobes and slippers. loved how clean everything was every day.
