Will definitely come back and stay with intercontinental again. One of the best stays with Expedia over the past 5 years and maybe 10 years."
"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! "
"The hotel is well-managed and has a customer-centric staff. We have not received a room upgrade upfront but only a couple of days after, when we complained about the noise during the night coming from the rooftop lounge."
