Hotels With Breakfast in Istanbul Province, Türkiye

I had a long layover in Istanbul and needed to stay a night outside the airport. I booked this hotel through Trip.com and it was excellent value for money. While the facilities are a bit dated, its proximity to the airport, just a 10-minute drive, is a huge plus. The hotel offers airport transfers for 20 Euros one way, which is super convenient if you have an early flight – just book the shuttle in advance. The 20 Euro fee applies regardless of whether it's one adult or an adult and a child, as was our case. The restaurant across from the hotel is very authentic and reasonably priced, unlike the inflated prices you find in the city center.

I stayed at this airport hotel near Sabiha Gökçen for an expensive pric. While the location is convenient and the room was generally clean, there were several operational issues that should be addressed. Upon check-in, the shower pipe in my room was faulty. The staff promptly arranged for a technician, which I appreciate. However, this indicates that rooms may not be thoroughly checked before guest arrival. A simple pre-check process could prevent such inconvenience. There were also no facial tissues provided in either the room or bathroom. This is a very basic amenity that most travelers expect, particularly at this price level. In addition, the hotel does not offer a coin laundry facility. For an airport hotel that likely serves transit guests, this would be a highly practical addition. The staff were responsive when contacted, and I appreciated the availability of slippers in the room. However, improving basic quality control and ensuring essential amenities are consistently provided would significantly enhance the guest experience. I hope this feedback is helpful for future improvements.

The hotel’s location is very strategic, making it convenient for getting around Istanbul. The staff are friendly, helpful, and welcoming, and the breakfast is truly excellent with a very good selection. The only downside during my stay was that the room had an unpleasant smell. I stayed in Room 415, and although I tried running hot water in both the sink and the shower, the odor did not go away. I hope the management can address this issue, as it would greatly improve the overall experience and help maintain the hotel’s good reputation.

The owner is fantastic! On our first night, they specially provided us with a more spacious room with two large beds – it was a really thoughtful and free upgrade. The second night we moved to a smaller room with a double bed. It was really tiny, which I understand – businesses need to maximize their profits. But seriously, it was so small it was hard to turn around, basically just a partitioned space. The breakfast is hard to review; as an Asian, I'm not used to having bread and cold dishes in the morning, so I really couldn't eat much. The coffee was decent, though. Overall, the value for money is pretty good.

I had an overnight layover on my way back home, so I decided to stay at a hotel near the airport. It's about a 30-minute bus ride from the airport, but I ended up waiting for the bus at the airport for 35 minutes. The fare was 84 Lira. The hotel seems to be in a small town, right on the main road, with not many dining options nearby. There's a large mosque not too far away, and I also spotted A101 and BIM stores nearby. The hotel itself is quite clean, probably opened not long ago. However, the trash can in the bathroom was already broken, but other facilities were fine. Breakfast was a set menu, simple but filling. For the price, it really offers great value for money.

The hotel's location is great. It's about a 3-5 minute walk to the T1 tram or bus stop, making it super convenient to get to Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Galata Bridge, the Walls of Constantinople, and Balat district. There are plenty of local restaurants nearby where you can get a rich Turkish meal for around 60 CNY per person, which is a huge difference from tourist area prices – really good value! The view from my 2nd-floor room wasn't great; the window faced an alley, which was different from my request for a higher floor with a good view (I guess the room availability didn't allow for it). Breakfast was decent and quite varied. The only downside is that I booked a room for three people, but for both nights, only two sets of bottled water and towels were provided. That's a definite минус.

The location is not bad, 15mins by taxi to/from the airport. But the taxi fare is pretty expensive. Euro30/ride when the hotel room is Euro37/night. Short ride taxi fare is much more expensive than the room itself. The room looks clean, however I found couple hair on the bed. And the bedsheet is not comfortable. The curtain is only half covered. As TK stopped providing long haul transit hotel, I had to get one myself. 20hrs transit time definitely require sleeping time, but when the curtain couldn't block out the sunlight, and the prayers was pretty loud and clear even the window door was fully closed, didn't get much sleep during the stay. Not sure why I read someone compliment the breakfast is very delicious. Well, the scramble eggs are not bad. However, the rest is not my taste. I prefer hot or warm food, not cold.

A surprise package with an adventure factor! The room itself was clean and visually appealing – a good start. However, things got 'creative' afterwards: I had booked a 'courtyard view,' but upon arrival, I was told I'd reserved a room without a window. They generously offered me a 'great, free upgrade,' accompanied by an explicit request to highlight this positively in my review. This adventurous upgrade, however, came with a complete power and Wi-Fi outage. My phone died, and planning my route for the next day became impossible. Since elevators, as we know, have a fondness for electricity, I had the athletic opportunity to exit the hotel on foot once the emergency lighting in the stairwell kicked in. The minimalism continued with the culinary offerings: The advertised breakfast turned out to be a solitary chai tea bag and a paper cup for preparation in the room. Solid food – contrary to the hotel description – was nowhere to be found. If you enjoy guessing what's coming next in the dark, this is the perfect place for you. Personally, when booking, I prefer a certain level of predictability.

Although the rooms are on the smaller side, the atmosphere is really lovely. All of the staff are extremely helpful — especially Uğur, Eren, Sadullah, and the rest of the hotel team, who are all very friendly and welcoming. The location is excellent, with easy access to all parts of Istanbul. Taksim Square is about a 20-minute walk, and you can also reach it easily by metro. In addition, the metro provides direct access to both Sabiha Gökçen Airport and Atatürk Airport, which is very convenient. Overall, it was a wonderful experience — truly a great place to stay. I would definitely choose to stay at the same hotel again on my next visit.
