We had a wonderful stay at GLK PREMIER Acropol Suites & Spa! We’re a family of four with older kids, and the room was spacious and comfortable for all of us. The sofa beds were just fine for our 5-night stay. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit. One pleasant surprise was that the hamam experience is included—we didn’t know beforehand, but they offer guests one hour per day to enjoy the sauna and traditional Turkish bath, which was such a relaxing bonus! The location couldn’t be better. The hotel is just a short walk from the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, the Basilica Cistern, and the Arasta Bazaar—a charming little market that’s easy to explore. Staying here was the best decision because we were able to walk everywhere without the stress of figuring out transportation. Breakfast was delicious every morning, with a great variety to start the day. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so enjoyable! We’d definitely recommend this hotel and would love to come back.

GLK Premier is an excellent hotel. Its location (5 mins from the Blue Masque and Hagia Sophia), extremely accommodating and very nice staff, very clean and spacious rooms are just a few of the reasons we keep going back. We first visited this hotel and 2013 and had an amazing time, and now, 12 years later, it was just as wonderful. The front desk helped us with every one of our asks and recommended great restaurants and car services. We had an early flight and had to leave an hour and a half before breakfast was to start and when we came downstairs breakfast was actually waiting for us and the staff made us sandwiches for the road as they didn’t know if we will have time to eat there. They made us feel so incredibly welcome and we will definitely return again in the future.

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Sultanahmet – Beyond Expectations! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) GLK Acropol isn’t just a hotel—it’s an experience filled with charm, comfort, and truly exceptional hospitality. From check-in to checkout, every staff member made me feel welcome and valued. Special thanks to Pouyan, Hanifi, the kind woman in the breakfast hall, the housekeeping team, and the wonderful hammam masseuse—you made this stay unforgettable. The location is unbeatable—just steps from top sights like Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and the Basilica Cistern. Safe, walkable, and ideal for exploring the heart of Istanbul. Breakfast each morning was generous and delicious, and my room was a peaceful, beautifully kept retreat. Every corner of the hotel is clean, inviting, and thoughtfully designed. A must-do is the Sultan Hammam & Spa inside the hotel. After a long flight, it was the perfect way to unwind and recharge—professional, relaxing, and beautifully authentic. GLK Acropol exceeded every expectation. Whether it's your first trip to Istanbul or your tenth, this hotel is the perfect base with a team that turns hospitality into an art. I left with incredible memories and can’t wait to return!
