This was a great B&B. The family was very helpful and the location could not be beat. It was close to the sites we wanted to see in Istanbul. The breakfast was wonderful and my gluten-free daughter was able to find food for her to eat.

We had a lovely room at the Marmara Guesthouse and wished they had availability for our return to Istanbul. Unfortunately we had to stay elsewhere and were very disappointed. The breakfast is delicious and served on the rooftop where you get a beautiful view of the Marmara Sea and surrounding Istanbul.

We loved this B&B! Everyone was so friendly and gave us great recommendations for things to do and see in Istanbul. Breakfast on the roof top was our favorite with the great view. We loved our sea view room with the comfy canopy bed and the beautiful tile in the shower. Conveniently located within walking distance to all of the... More

This small, comfy place is just steps from all the main sites in Istanbul. Our room was smallish but completely adequate. The owners are hardworking and accommodating. Transport from the airport that they arranged ran without a hitch. Use this service by all means. Breakfast was good and the breakfast room and outside deck upstairs offer nice retreats and a...

We stayed for two nights at the start of our trip, and one night on the eve of our departure some 4 weeks later.

The buffet breakfasts were magnificent. The staff were friendly... More

Three night break in Istanbul and had a fabulous time at this guesthouse. The rooms are extremely spacious and spotless. The shower in the bathroom was brilliant and the bed was very comfortable, the air conditioning worked extremely well unlike some hotels abroad. The inclusive continental breakfast was very good and more than adequate to start your day. We booked... More

This was our first visit to Istanbul and our first stop on our itinerary. This family-run guesthouse is in an ideal location for exploring the Sultanahmet area of Istanbul. The ensuite room in the basement was small but clean and comfortable. Other rooms and the terrace where breakfast is served are up narrow, winding stairs, which may be difficult for... More
