In brief

What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Potential noise from air-conditioning units — Some guests reported that rooms at the back of the hotel can be noisy due to the central air-conditioning engine. If you're sensitive to noise, requesting a front-facing room might be wise.
  • Occasional overbooking issues — One guest experienced being relocated to another hotel due to overbooking, without compensation or a clear apology. It's worth confirming your reservation directly before arrival.
  • Limited room type variety — Only Standard Double, Single, and Triple rooms are listed, all with single beds. If you prefer a double bed or a suite, options are limited.

“Lovely hotel with strong Wi-Fi, round-the-clock reception, and a welcoming bar. The staff once printed documents for me during my previous visit, which was a nice touch. I'd suggest trying the spa for a massage – I'm planning to return for Christmas!”

7.7Verified guest

“The beds were exceptionally comfortable, and the room had a TV with many channels, a sitting area, and a desk. The views were outstanding and the décor was convenient.”

7.7Verified guest

“A comfortable hotel with polite night-shift staff. The location is fantastic, right next to the Grand Bazaar and close to Galata Tower and other sights, public transport, and the city centre. Check-in was easy.”

7.7Verified guest

“The hotel was decent, but on arrival they were overbooked and I had to stay one night elsewhere. That hotel was lower category, yet I got no discount or apology. Only after I was somewhat rude did they agree to bring my luggage back to the Carlton. It felt odd, especially since I'd called two days before to reconfirm after a booking mix-up in Slovenia.”

7.7Verified guest

“They allowed early check-in and late check-out. The night-shift staff were courteous, and the rooms were perfect with two single beds.”

7.7Verified guest

“The hotel was wonderful with great services and a superb location, under a 5-minute walk to a metro station. It's right by bus stops and the Yenikapı M1 line to the airport. I also enjoyed meals at Venezia Restaurant, which is very close by.”
