We had a delightful stay at the Carina Gold Hotel in Istanbul, and our experience was nothing short of excellent. Traveling with a 3-year-old can be challenging, but the friendly and welcoming staff made everything smooth and enjoyable. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and great hospitality. The location of the hotel is perfect, with easy access to the tram and many of Istanbul's iconic landmarks within walking distance. Our room was comfortable and well-maintained. Overall, we highly recommend the Carina Gold Hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul.

    We chose this apartment because of its amazing price. Despite being quite affordable, the location was very convenient for us, with the downtown area easily accessible by foot or by bus. The apartment met our expectations - simple but sufficient for our needs. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option close to the city, this is a solid pick.

    Location is perfect, a 10-15 min walk to Hagia Sophia, The Blue Mosque, the Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace, a 30 min walk to the Grand Bazaar. Lots of great and affordable restaurants around, lots of markets for food and drinks or souvenirs (they are a lot cheaper here than at the bazaar btw). Easy to get a taxi if you need it. Good Turkish breakfast was included.
