The hotel is very nice, very clean and modern. It lives up to being 5* we got a free upgrade on arrival which was amazing because our room had a hammam which was very nice. The Syrian lady at breakfast making at the omelette station was very friendly. Overall very nice hotel and breakfast is very nice and varied too. My mum forget two pieces of clothing items at the hotel and only realised later and when we came back the following day to collect they had it for us which was nice.

I just had a fantastic stay at the Barceló Istanbul Hotel and wanted to share my experience. Everything was perfect, from the modern and comfortable facilities to the impeccable cleanliness of the premises. I want to extend a special thanks to the receptionist, ATOUSA. Her warm welcome and professionalism truly made a difference during my stay. She was incredibly helpful in answering all my questions and always took the time to ensure I had everything I needed. In summary, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in Istanbul. Thank you to the entire team, especially ATOUSA, for making my stay unforgettable!

The staff was amazing. 🥰🙏🏼 Everyone was nice and helpful, doing their best to make sure we have a great stay. We would especially want to single out Mert Kablan, from the Concierge, who literally saved my husband’s birthday by using his contacts to rebook a Hammam session we had missed and by recommending wonderful restaurants for us to try. We were also spoiled every morning for breakfast by Aygul and Erdem, who went out of their way to accommodate our baby and even sang happy birthday over cake and candle for my husband’s special day. We are so grateful to them for making our visit to Istanbul memorable 🙏🏼😘

Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Barceló Istanbul Taksim! From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure a fantastic experience. I was delighted to receive a room upgrade, which made my stay even more special. The service was impeccable—every staff member, from reception to housekeeping and the breakfast team, was warm, professional, and attentive. Housekeeping took such great care of my room, and I was pleasantly surprised to find fresh fruits and chocolates waiting for me daily—a truly thoughtful touch. The breakfast was excellent, with a great variety of delicious options, and the staff made sure everything was perfect every morning. The hotel’s location is unbeatable, just a short walk from Taksim Square, making it convenient for exploring the city. I highly recommend Barceló Istanbul Taksim to anyone looking for a luxurious and welcoming stay in Istanbul. I will definitely return! Special Thanks to Sahin, in reception, who upgraded my room and breakfast team led by chef Noor and house keeping Husain and bell boy Recep

Very convenient location. Very clean. Very good WiFi. Comfortable spacious communicating rooms. Professional staff. Our son’s plush went missing from our room. The hotel staff went out of their way to locate it. It had mistakenly been washed with the beddings, and was returned to us a couple days later. A big relief for our little boy.

Amazing property with amazing personnel! I recently had the pleasure of staying at Barcelo Istanbul, and it was a truly remarkable experience. From the moment I arrived, the warm and welcoming staff made me feel right at home. The location is perfect, offering stunning views of the city, and it’s conveniently close to many attractions and shopping areas. The rooms are spacious, modern, and immaculately clean. The attention to detail in the room decor and amenities is impressive, providing a perfect blend of comfort and luxury. One of the highlights of my stay was the incredible dining experience. The breakfast buffet is a must-try, with a wide selection of fresh and tasty options. The spa and wellness facilities are top-notch, providing a serene and relaxing environment. After a long day of exploring the city, it was fantastic to unwind with a massage and enjoy the sauna and hot tub. Overall, my stay at Barcelo Istanbul was exceptional, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city. Whether you're in Istanbul for business or leisure, this hotel provides everything you need for a memorable stay.

My stay at this hotel was absolutely wonderful From the moment I checked in, Ms.Hanieh and Ms.Atousa welcomed me with warmth and professionalism. Ms.Hanieh was also incredibly helpful and attentive in resolving an issue I had. The hotel was impeccably clean, and the daily room service was excellent. Breakfast was outstanding, with a friendly and professional staff-especially Ms.Nour who was constantly ensuring top-notch service with a smile. I will definitely return and highly recommend this hotel to others!"

This hotel was hands-down the best place we have stayed in all of Europe! The customer service and hotel staff hospitality was exceptional, which made our trip even more memorable. With the hustle and bustle of the live city of Istanbul the Barcelo was in a perfect location because it offered a quiet, clean and comfortable location. Within a 5 minute walk, you can be in the heart of Taksim Square, and for €5-10 taxi ride, you can reach anywhere in the city of Istanbul! The rooms were extremely clean. The Roman Bath and saunas were exquisite. I cannot stress enough how great the customer service and hospitality was! We will definitely be staying at the Barcelo during our next trip to Istanbul!
