The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and accommodating. The rooftop breakfast and lounge is fantastic and open for use all day. In early June the jasmin blooms up there and is amazing. Rooms are clean, well stocked, have a safe albeit smallish which was fine for us! I stayed here twice. Airport pick up was 100% reliable. Great value.

The Niles Hotel has a terrific staff. It is located just 3 blocks from the tram station, therefore, making it very easy to get to the main sites in Istanbul. Additionally, the entrance to the Grand Bazaar is just a 5 minute walk. The rooms are basic, but fine. The bed was a bit low for me, but overall okay. The breakfasts were fine. We stayed for a full week, and will certainly return on any future trip to Istanbul.

As previous reviewers have said, the hotel is very well located, and only a few minutes walk from the Grand Bazaar and (more importantly) the T1 tram route which gives you fast and inexpensive access to the whole of central Istanbul. The street itself is not smart, but appears safe. The hotel is very different from the usual international offering, but in a good way. It is decorated in the Turkish style with ornate painted ceilings and has a slightly old-fashioned feel to it which only adds to its charm. It is in fact two buildings which have been knocked together - the rooms to the right are the junior suites and have their own lift and stairs and are somewhat quieter as there are only 8 rooms that side. The rooms at the back were quieter although had no view. Breakfast was great - served on the roof terrace which a large choice of quality freshly-prepared food which was kept fully replenished until service finished at 1030. The reception team were always available and always helpful with advice, such as how to use the tram! One piece of advice - do not bother with an organised Bosphorus boat trip, but just use the ferries to cross and recross this wonderful seaway using your Istanbulkart. Your will have a much better experience and save yourself a lot of money!

Hotel is beautifully decorated, location is the most perfect! So close and walking distance to main attractions. We took tram to Galata tower which was right next to hotel! Staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is ok, not many options but the options were delicious. Rooms can be slightly noisy from outside noise, felt like our windows were open but they were closed. Overall great hotel for the location!

This was a beautiful boutique hotel close to the main attractions and a convenient tram stop for those who prefer not to walk. Staff were always hospitable and helpful. We got some great local restaurant recommendations. We stayed in a duplex room which was roomy with 2 bathrooms, one of which was a Turkish style hamam. Loved the quirky decor and attention to detail. Breakfast delicious simple and was varied daily and included homemade traditional Turkish bread and bakes. The only let down was the fitness facility/ gym advertised was not available. Closed for reconstruction we were told. Other than this a marvellous stay.

We were really lucky to come across this hotel. Initially, we were attracted by cost and location. But the hotel was so much better than we had anticipated. Partly through our interactions with hotel personnel, who were wonderful, but mostly on the basis of the sheer charm of the hotel. A lovely room, attractive lounges for relaxation, an excellent breakfast. Nowadays many hotels tend to be on the overly functional side--indeed, drab. The Niles, on the other hand, was a lovely experience. The only negative I might mention is that the street it is on is very narrow--especially for cars and trucks that need to get about--and that it's a bit of an uphill climb until you get to the main street, which is a stone's throw away from the Grand Bazaar and the excellent tram system. When we return to Istanbul, this hotel will be our first choice.

Niles is good hotel and the price is great. The standard rooms are a little small for two people. It’s in an excellent location. 4 min walk from the grand bazaar and 20 min walk from other great touristy attractions. The breakfast was great and had gluten free options. I would stay here again
