Best Marriott International Hotels in Istanbul

Across the street from the Vodafone Arena with views of the Bosphorus Strait, The Ritz-Carlton, Istanbul offers a convenient home base for soccer fans and sightseers alike who are visiting Istanbul. Guests say this Marriott-affiliated property is beautifully decorated with Ottoman-inspired furnishings and well-appointed accommodations. Guest rooms are outfitted with large windows, flat-screen TVs, Nespresso coffee makers and complimentary Wi-Fi access, as well as oversized bathrooms with separate showers and bathtubs. The property also features an expansive spa with traditional Turkish baths, a couples hammam suite, a fitness center, an indoor pool and a barber shop. During the summer months (May to September), lodgers have access to the hotel's open-air spa, which offers cooling and calming treatments overlooking the Bosphorus, as well as an outdoor pool. Recent travelers were also complimentary of the cuisine offered at the two on-site restaurants and one lounge. Guests say their stays were enhanced by the attentive customer service, though they do bemoan the expensive rates. Keep in mind, though, that members of the Marriott Bonvoy program can help keep costs down by putting points toward a stay here.

Travelers found little to complain about at the highly acclaimed St. Regis Istanbul. First and foremost, service is exemplary. Guests reported feeling completely taken care of by staff throughout the hotel, and with both butler and personal styling services included in the room rate, you likely won't have to lift a finger during your stay. The hotel's location in the Nisantasi district also garnered lots of praise. Standard accommodations, which measure up to 600 square feet, match the neighborhood's penchant for luxury and are decorated in fine art deco accents. Rooms also come equipped with coffee makers and flat-screen TVs, as well as walk-in dressing rooms and bathrooms with separate showers and tubs. Meanwhile, the Iridium Spa houses three pools in addition to hammams, and personal training sessions can be scheduled in the on-site exercise room. For dining, guests can choose between Wolfgang Puck's farm-to-table-inspired Spago, or the St. Regis Brasserie, which offers Parisian-Turkish fusion dishes. And don't miss out on the hotel's impressive art collection, which includes works from the Demsa Collection, one of the world's most revered private art collections. And because this hotel is part of the Marriott hotel family, Marriott Bonvoy members can earn and use points here.

Gezi Hotel Bosphorus blends modern details with 1940s and 1950s architectural stylings. A 17-story curved structure made of zinc and titanium, this 67-room hotel sits on the European side of Istanbul by Gezi Park. Standard rooms have garden-facing balconies or patios, smoked oak parquet floors, double beds dressed in satin linens and Italian marble bathrooms with rain showers, while suites offer additional perks like Nespresso coffee machines and fireplaces. The property's contemporary design extends into the on-site Silver Spa, where guests can indulge in a treatment or take advantage of the fitness center, sauna, ice fountain and Turkish bath. There's also the hotel's restaurant, Fiamma, which serves cocktails and Mediterranean-inspired dishes alongside views of the Bosphorus. Previous guests appreciated Gezi Hotel Bosphorus' friendly employees and clean accommodations, though some felt the gym was a bit small and desired more breakfast options at Fiamma. But most could not get enough of the property's location. In addition to sitting near various restaurants and the city's Taksim metro station, guests can walk to top attractions like Dolmabahçe Palace and Taksim Square.

Located within walking distance of a metro station, a large park, restaurants, shops and offices, the Istanbul Marriott Hotel Sisli is ideally situated for those visiting Istanbul for work.

Dining options include a lobby lounge, a coffee shop, a cocktail bar and The Dish Room Grill Restaurant & Terrace, which serves international fare for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The modern guest rooms and suites are decorated in crisp whites and soft neutrals, and all include flat-screen TVs, floor-to-ceiling windows, workstations, tea and coffee makers, minibars and internet access (for a fee). Recent guests had high praise for the "extremely friendly and very helpful" staff, delicious food and central location, especially for business travelers, though others cautioned that sightseers might want to stay at a hotel closer to downtown's top attractions. Keep in mind, because of this hotel's Marriott ties, Marriott Bonvoy members can accrue or redeem points by choosing to stay here.
