Close to Istiklal Street
The Marmara Pera offers a great location in Istanbul, with easy access to Istiklal Street and the Galata Tower. The view from the hotel is beautiful, adding to the overall experience. The room was comfortable, though the bathroom was quite small, which could be a downside for some. However, overall, it was a pleasant stay, and the area is vibrant and full of things to explore.

I had a great stay at Marmara Pera. My room was really nice, and was kept clean, the breakfast was great, and the location of the hotel is perfect, right off Istiklal street. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the swimming pool on the rooftop was a nice extra treat.

Overnight stay in Pera
The Marmara is a comfortable hotel with a relaxing lobby and in a great location. The Pera Club room was comfortable with a great view of the city and Golden Horn. The reception staff were great and allowed a later check out and lent an adapter plug. I’d stay again.

Great location to check out all the tourist sites of Istanbul! We would totally recommend for couples and young adults as it was in the heart of the action for shopping, dinning and night life. We loved this ocation but stayed with small children and next time will probably stay somewhere off the beaten path and more family friendly with kids

Where do I even begin?! I’ve stayed at the Marmara pera 3 times in the last 5 weeks and I’ve had an exceptional experience. We’ve had the pleasure of meeting Gorkem the gentleman that works at the front desk and he truly treated us like royalty! In fact, they all have. This is definitely a hotel I highly recommend for every need from location, ambiance, staff, cleanliness and food!!!!
Phenomenal stay!!!!
