10/10 Exceptional

Hotel Arcadia Blue was located centrally to the historic Golden Horn area where the main historic sites and buildings are located. The hotel was very comfortable and clean. Fantastic view of the Blue Mosque and Haiga Sophia out our window. Breakfast was very good; however, the bar and dinner were on the expensive side. Staff was excellent for helping with guide, transportation, and health issues. They were all friendly and fluent in English. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely stay there when I return.

Our package came with a free standard breakfast which was very decent and yummy and had a beautiful rooftop view of the Istanbul skyline and both Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia I was in awe! The rooms were nicely cleaned although floor slightly dusty however cleaning services were so lovely and attended our every need. The beds were so comfy I had such good sleep! The staff were exceptionally amazing at helping with all of our issues, telling us where to go for best food and other recommendations and helping with travel too, I want to thank Batu he was so helpful and kind in our stay and he even helped us with a last minute request for a luxury transfer back to our airport exactly what we wanted! He is so sweet and he made our stay even more better! Overall the hotel is in a perfect location for going to see most of the main sites and has a lovely main street too and it’s so easy to get too and from I would definitely stay here again

10/10 Exceptional

Hospitality was a top-notch, the reception guys were so attentive, polite, and helpful and treated every guest like VIP. I wanted to give the special shoutout to Burat (I might have mistaken his name, the tall curly guy), he was so quick and professional. Hotel is beautiful and well maintained, the rooms are clean and well maintained as well. The location is great - all the historical places are 10 minutes away by walking. There is a tram if you want to go to Galata/Karakoy area, the whole trip takes only about 20 minutes. Restaurants, tourist attractions, money exchange places with great rates, anything you need is just right there if you don’t want to travel far! I saw a lot of negative reviews about the breakfast, but in my opinion it was solid - good variety, the food was delicious, staff were attentive and quick as well. Overall, I give this hotel 100 out of 10 and I will definitely be back next year. Already looking forward to it!

Great view from the rooftop restaurant so get breakfast included although the breakfast options are very minimal. The staff were very helpful and friendly. My issues were uncomfortable pillows, the rooms aren't very sound proof and the things like the TV Channels weren't working so couldn't watch the world cup, also the shower head needed changing and it was dusty in some places (vents, telephone wires etc) but overall for the price I paid it was good.

The view from the room on the 8th floor was wonderful. Could see both the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. Great location, easy walking distance to all the main sites, including two aforementioned mosques. The included breakfast was delicious and lots of variety. The front desk was very helpful with shopping tips and arranging airport transfer service. Overall would recommend.
