Arrived at this hotel on 3rd May at 11.30pm only to be informed that there were no room reserved for us! Even though I had a hotel voucher from Travel Republic stating otherwise, the receptionist was adamant that she did not receive a reservation but surprisingly received the money for the room bookings? hmmm after offering us one night with...

Me and my girlfriend went again to Istanbul, we love this city, and stayed at the Golden Palace. The hotel is clean, slightly worn, but definitely clean. Mattress is almost new and comfortable, the host is kind and helpful, price is fair. Hotel is a few minutes walking from amenities like Agia Sofia, the Blue Mosque, tramway stop, restaurants, shops,... More

This is a budget hotel and do not expect anything else, then you will be happy otherwise disappointed. The staff speaks good English and are very helpful. The rooms are not sound proof so a noisy neighboor could be a problem. Also the AC was noisy. Breakfast just below average. But it is price wise a good choice and the... More

I can't believe some people actually like this place. We were accosted by travel agent at the airport and they talked us into booking here. When we saw our room, we asked for a different one and they would not let us change rooms. Then we asked for a refund and they refused that also. We decided to stay one... More

I was at the Golden Palace with 2 friends this April, l for 3 days. The hotel has no elevator, and it is very, very old and in bad condition. They gave us a “garden room”, no garden and the view of the Bosporus, was very, very far. There is a train that runs very near the hotel. The room... More

Upon arrival at the reception (in the evening after a number of hours travelling), they didn't accept the reservation we had made through HRS.de -- they said it "couldn't be that price" and tried to make us pay double the price that was on the reservation. They wanted to show us their "official rates", which was completely irrelevant as we... More
