We travelled to Istanbul for a week at the end of May and had an amazing experience in Opera Bosphorus! The hotel exceeded our expectations in many ways. When we arrived we discovered that our room has been upgraded to triple room (booked regular double but asked for twin beds) free of charge. The triple room was very spacious, quiet and peaceful, overlooking the pool. The decor throughout the hotel and rooms is beautiful, with great attention to detail. In the room we had free safe, daily complimentary bottle of water, daily room service with excellent cleaning standard, fresh bedding and towels and new pairs of slippers daily! There was also a kettle, mini fridge, tea, coffee, creamer, sugar, but we were most impressed by the little touches such as hotel logo vanity kit with ear buds, shower cap, nail file, cotton pads and even several colour threads and needle. You also get large bottles of hand soap, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel which we didn't finish in our week's stay there. Our room was very quiet and peaceful, with comfortable beds. Our special thanks go to Yuksel at reception, he was outstanding, professional and friendly, giving us great advice on how to get to places and generally made us feel at home. No request was too much! The hotel manager, bar and restaurant managers and staff were also outstanding, friendly and very helpful! Big thanks to the wonderful Ayten! We are very grateful to every one of you for making us feel so welcome and looked after. The pool isn't very big but is nice and clean, worth noting it catches the sun for several hours around lunch time and not all day, pool towels are provided. We did not try the spa but it looked lovely. Finally the hotel restaurant overlooking Bosphorus was wonderful, we loved the view and thought the breakfast was delicious with a varied selection of dishes. We had dinner at the hotel restaurant several times and loved the food, although the prices are quite high but that is reflective of generally high prices in Istanbul, not specifically the hotel restaurant. As we arrived late on our first night, it was a nice surprise to discover that the restaurant serves food 24 hours a day as we were able to order food to our room. On the top floor, there is a rooftop restaurant separate from the hotel which we also enjoyed, the view of Bosphorus there is even better. Overall we would highly recommend this hotel, great value, good customer service, beautiful interiors, lovely pool and central location with walking distance to Taxim and metro (tram) stop. We thought the hotel felt more like 5* in many ways, especially attention to detail and the little extras you get. Thank you Opera Bosphorus, can't wait to stay with you again in the future!

Felt they took advantage of me
