    stunning views
    unclean bathroom
    bland breakfast

    Rooftop terrace offered stunning views of the city.

    I was really disappointed with the cleanliness standards, as I noticed ants in the bathroom and room, which was quite unsettling. The breakfast was incredibly bland, lacking variety and heating options, with cold sausages and stale foods that did not make for a pleasant start to the day.

    ideal location
    great views
    clean rooms
    noisy surroundings

    Kafkas Hotel sits right in the heart of the city. Just a quick walk to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The rooftop breakfast served a stunning view of the Bosphorus. Rooms seemed clean and renovated, making for a cozy stay. Staff greeted me with water upon my arrival, which felt welcoming. I did encounter noise issues from the trams outside – sleep sometimes felt disrupted. Breakfast lacked variety and was the same each morning, which could improve with some fresh options. The lift was a tad cramped, but manageable. Some appliances needed attention, like the mini fridge that didn’t work well. Despite some inconveniences, I loved the location and vibe of the area around the hotel.

    The room left much to be desired, lacking basic items like a teapot and coffee facilities. I faced significant noise from the street, especially from trams, disrupting sleep. bathroom maintenance issues and variable water temperature made things inconvenient and uncomfortable. The breakfast variety was quite limited, leaving little to look forward to each morning. Overall cleanliness seemed to miss the mark, which didn't help the experience at all.

    unbeatable access to historic sites and charming parks nearby

    The hotel was just a short walk from iconic spots like the Hagia Sophia and Gülhane Park, which offered lovely strolls and breathtaking views, making my weekend truly enjoyable. the breakfast on the rooftop terrace was a highlight too, with an amazing view of the Bosphorus and the stunning Galata Tower in the distance.

    impeccable location
    comfortable amenities
    street noise
    limited breakfast

    The impeccable location makes exploring Istanbul easy, with major sights just minutes away. The single room was comfortable, featuring good lighting and decent amenities, but the noise from the streets was disruptive. A more varied breakfast would enhance the experience.

    unbeatable location

    Recommend it for location seekers

    The location was unbeatable, a short stroll and you're at the gates of historical gems like the Topkapi Palace and the Blue Mosque. Had a moment on the rooftop terrace for breakfast, the view of the Bosphorus was stunning, felt like royalty.

    It wasn't cheap but still acceptable for what you get.

    water pressure issue

    The staff were exceptionally accommodating, and the in-room breakfast was fantastic, setting us up for amazing explorations. Walking distance to iconic attractions made our stay even more memorable, and there are lovely shops and cafes nearby.

    The bathroom had some water pressure issues and could benefit from attention.

    noise from trams
    cleaning could be better

    the location is amazin, super close to all the cool sights like hagia sofia and grand bazaar. our room was spacious and had everything we needed like a fridge and kettle. the breakfast on the rooftop was super nice with a great view. the staff were really nice and helped us out when we needed. overall, great stay!

    the noise from the trams outside made it hard to sleep and the cleaning could be better. our room had mismatched hangers which was kinda weird.

    city center location
    clean double room
    rooftop terrace view
    tight elevator

    Kafkas was ideally located in the city center, providing easy access to major attractions like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The recently renovated Double Room was clean and spacious, offering a comfortable stay. Breakfast included complimentary items and the view from the rooftop terrace was exceptional, adding to the overall experience.

    The elevator was a bit tight.

    spacious room
    comfy bed
    quiet location
    basic breakfast
    limited amenities

    The Double Room was surprisingly spacious for Istanbul standards, with a comfy bed that made for great sleep. Plus, we were on the quieter side of the hotel, so street noise wasn't an issue. The heating worked well, which was nice. Breakfast was a simple spread, but it did the job. the room met our needs for the stay!
