First Visit

Fantastic location in the thick of the historic centre. Helpful and friendly staff, quick to recommend attractions and the best way to go about things. Also got tips on what to avoid and what to watch out for.

Ideal location in Sultanahmet

This was the perfect spot to stay in Sultanahmet. A short walk to both the blue mosque or the grand bazaar and only 1 min walk to a tram stop it gives you already access to all the main tourist spots in Sultanahmet. The staff at the hotel were super friendly and helpful and upgraded us to joining rooms which was much appreciated. The best thing about the hotel was the room sizes which were huge by Istanbul standards. I’ve been to Istanbul many times and this was the best hotel I’ve stayed in!

Amazing meal experience

The best breakfast buffet I have ever had. The restaurant is very affordable and offers delicious food. The downside is the poor soundproofing in the rooms, which is typical of all the hotels I have stayed in Istanbul before. I did not sleep for two nights because of the very active neighbors next door. The staff is very helpful. Location is perfect and within 5-7 min walk to all keypoints

A gem of a hotel

The best experience! Stayed 4 days during our Istanbul trip. Cannot say enough great things about our experience. The reception staf (day and evening) are absolute superstars, they are personable, friendly, have the best customer service skills. They are accommodating and give recommendations to activities around town and things to see. They will arrange it for you and book transportation. Rooms were clean and comfortable, cleaning done daily. The hotel is located within walking distance to everything. Breakfast had such a variety of options and always fresh. I can go on, but with my frequent travels, this was a gem, and the staff make this stay unforgettable.

The receptionist, Burhan, did an excellent job helping us decide where to go and how to get to various places during our stay at Carina Hold Hotel. The rest of the staff was also very friendly and helpful. We loved having breakfast at the hotel, as the variety on the menu exceeded our expectations. I will definitely choose Carina Hold Hotel again for future stays.

Amazing! The hotel is centrally located, easy access to many areas. Tram station right outside. I had a member in my family who was on a wheelchair. As Istanbul is very hilly, this hotel was so well located, that we did not have any issue. I do recommend people who have accessibility needs to stay here. The rooms were amazing, the breakfast buffet was next to none, great quality food. The staff were so helpful and friendly. The room quality was 10/10, and its perfect for families.

The Carina Gold Hotel is FABULOUS!!! First, the staff is warm, friendly and incredibly helpful. Second, the hotel is clean and comfortable. The air conditioning works well and the breakfast is worth the earlier wake up. Finally, the location can’t be beat. There hotel us between two tram stops, one right around the corner. A short walk to Aya Sophia and a convenient walk to the Grand Bazaar (the tram stops will lead you to the Spice Market, Karakoy, or the docks to Asia in less than 15 minutes). I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to enjoy their trip to Istanbul.
