Our stay was comfortable. The breakfast was varied, delicious, healthy, and served in a large beautiful dining room. Our room was ample and serviced every day--the towels were fresh and fluffy. The location is good, right near Taksim and lots of transportation. We would stay there again.

Magnificent views of the Bosphorus from InterContinental Istanbul's rooftop City Lights Bar and restaurant - not to be missed.
The bedrooms are a good size and were spotlessly clean with a very comfortable bed.
Great location near Takism square and metro
