Hotel very well located to visit main atractions as Agia Sofia, Blue Musque, Basílica Cisterna, Grand Bazar, and the beautifull streets of the city. Everything is walking distance. The rooms are a little small, but everything was clean. Pretty nice breakfast with great views from the terrace. Kind and helpfull staff

This is a goodbudgetnproperty in an excellent location for walking to the central attractions of Isranbul. It is also close to the metro. The regular rooms are very small but manageable. The suites are very nice and closer to an American size room. The staff is kind and helpful.
Rajendra, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Perfect location. Stayed for a few days and then travelled and property looked after excess luggage and upon return gave a room upgrade. Staff helpful. There were sewage smells in the bathroom which may just be the Istanbul system.

The hotel is unfortunately old and not well maintained compared to other hotels in the vicinity.

Very cool employees

8/10 Very good

Great location, not very peaceful
Hotel location was great and bedrooms were good, all the basics were provided. The walls are very thin so you could hear lots of people moving around, particularly the loud cleaners who would chat away very loudly in the mornings on their phones making it impossible to lie-in.

Otel konum olarak çok iyi, gezilecek yerlere ve restorantlara rahatlıkla ulaşabilirsiniz. Sakin ve sessiz bir otel memnun kaldık. Tek negatif bulduğum temizliğin hijyen olarak bi üstmseviye de olmasını isterdim, özellikle lavabo bölümünde. Öneririm rahatlıkla gelip kalınabilir. Kahvaltı da gayet yeterli ve manzarası çok güzel.

Hotelden memnun kaldık. Biraz daha temiz olabilirdi. Çalışanlar kibar ve saygılıydı. Otelin konumu çok iyi. Bir çok yere yürüme mesafesinde. Otel önünde otele ayrılan yere park ettik.

My experience at the Golden Horn Hotel wasnt as pleasant as i expected it to be. during check in, i had to wait for 2 hours for my room to be prepared. after entering the room i have realized that it was nothing like the room from the picture. the service was ok. overall not a bad hotel. but for sure woudnt book thsi hotel again.

10/10 Exceptional

Superb staff, location, and comfort!
The staff of the Golden Horn made me feel right at home. Breakfast is ample and traditional; Mr. Seckin takes care of everyone and is especially good with children. Try the "menemen"--a Turkish way to eat eggs. The desk manager Erdogan is also a treat--he organized my COVID test and a hamaam visit for me, and was always ready with information and a smile. The location can't be beaten--walk to Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque, Suleiyman mosque, Grand Bazaar, Spice Bazaar, Galata Bridge, etc. It's right on the tram line too so convenient and impossible to get lost. Finally, the rooms are comfortable, with fridge and great water pressure! I found the bed very comfortable with heavy duvet covers and plenty of pillows.
