DoubleTree by Hilton Istanbul Topkapi
The hotel was great in terms of size and quality of the room. The location was quite isolated and info online at hotels.com was very misleading in regard to proximity to public transport - this needs to be doubled. So 15-20 min walk to tram and train, etc.

Hampton by Hilton Istanbul Airport, Arnavutkoy
The room, the restaurant, and the arranged transportation to and from the Istanbul Airport were excellent. The staff was friendly and wanted to help. It is not luxurious, but it is clean, practical, and near the airport. Many of the cabin crews of different airlines stay there.

Seven Hills Palace & Spa
The room was very clean. Staff tried to tell us tours immediately upon check-in and were upset that we had already booked tours. Not super helpful with directions or other things.

Wyndham Grand Istanbul Kalamis Marina Hotel
