The location of the property is excellent for walking around Istiklal Street (one of the main shopping high streets) and Cehangir area : where a lot of locals live and go out. The hotel junior staff is super friendly and polite, but their English is almost non existent. Enter the people in suits : sadly the suits speak better English but present in a very unfriendly manner. Not sure if this was because we looked American or they are just plain rude across the board. Maybe a bit of both, because we could see carpets being rolled out for other nationalities. There is a clear difference between “professional” and “just plain rude”.

The Ritz-Carlton Istanbul is a beautiful hotel, close to great areas and sights of the city, yet far enough away to feel quiet. The staff were wonderful and very helpful, from in-room service to helping us navigate the city and plan outings. I'd look forward to returning to this lovely property.

This property exceeded our expectations. Our stay was truly wonderful and we wished we had longer at the Ritz Carlton Istanbul. We have travelled Europe for two years in a row amongst other destinations and have consistently stayed at 5 star properties throughout our lives, however the service received by staff at this property blew us away. The property is in a fantastic location and an easy walk to Taksim Square, Taxis are readily available at the lobby taking the stress out of organising your own, club rooms have high quality food and drinks which we were very satisfied with, the swimming pool area is stunning with ample space and bedding for guests to swim or simply relax with some music and food/drinks, the rooms are extremely clean and feature Diptyque products, comfortable bedding and a pillow menu. Lastly but most importantly to us I wanted to thank Mevluthan the absolutely wonderful staff member whom checked us in. His service and hospitality was incredible and I truly hope he receives the recognition he deserves. From the minute we arrived, Mevluthun provided a true Ritz Carlton experience. We are very grateful to him for going above and beyond to make our stay special along with all the other wonderful staff at the Ritz Istanbul. ’We truly cannot wait to return and also loved the thoughtful handwritten notes left in our room on a couple of occasion’s with chocolates etc. The Ritz Istanbul is impeccable in every way. Thank you.

The room is half of the size of what is advertised!! It’s only 50m2 not 107m2!! I have stayed in more then 100 hotels this is first time I stayed at RC and found out that kids 4 years younger can’t swim in their indoor swimming pool!! When I questioned this no answer or bothered to call us back and explain!! I will not recommend RC hotel or Hotels.com for misleading information provided on their website about size of room!!
