    rooftop terrace
    stunning views
    opaque shades
    sleep quality

    I adored the elegant decor of The Magnaura Palace Hotel, which combined traditional Turkish elements with modern comforts, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The rooftop terrace offered stunning views of the Bosphorus, perfect for enjoying breakfast.

    More opaque blackout shades would improve sleep quality.

    great location
    comfortable bed
    rooftop terrace

    Our stay at The Magnaura Palace Hotel was perfect! The location couldn't be better, just a few minutes from landmarks like Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. The room was beautifully decorated, and the comfortable bed ensured restful nights. We loved having breakfast on the rooftop terrace with stunning views of the Sea of Marmara every morning.

    No concerns during our stay.

    rooftop terrace
    central location
    thin walls

    Location near major landmarks like Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, with a five-minute walk to attractions. Rooftop terrace offers stunning views, especially during breakfast with a variety of fresh options.

    The thin walls led to some noise coming from adjacent rooms, which might disrupt light sleepers. Barely functional air conditioning made the room uncomfortably warm at times, particularly in early seasons. Bathroom space in the Deluxe Double Room felt tight, especially in the shower area, which may pose difficulties for larger guests. Additionally, I experienced inconsistent Wi-Fi connectivity during my stay, making it challenging to stay connected at times.

    comfy bed
    cute french balconies
    clean room
    tight shower
    lack of privacy

    The Deluxe Double Room was really nice—super clean and spacious. The bed was comfy, which made it easy to relax after a long day of exploring. I loved the cute French balconies, and the decor had a nice blend of modern and traditional elements. The only downside was the shower space being a bit tight. Overall, a good room for the price!

    clean room
    breathtaking view
    sun terrace
    cramped bathroom

    The room was super clean and the view from our balcony was breathtaking, especially at sunset. I loved relaxing on the sun terrace and enjoying refreshing drinks after our sightseeing. The only minor hiccup was that the bathroom felt a bit cramped, but it didn't take away from our awesome time! 🌅

    fantastic views
    helpful service
    noisy walls
    early breakfast

    Magnaura Palace hit all the right notes during my stay. The location is unbeatable, just a few minutes' walk to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Staff members, especially Aydin and Enes, were incredibly helpful and made planning my daily outings a breeze. The rooftop terrace offered stunning views, perfect for capturing those Instagram moments. Breakfast had a fantastic selection of fresh fruits, pastries, and local dishes, served in a lovely setting with a view. My room had a balcony, comfy bed, and nice amenities. However, I did notice the walls were a bit thin, so I could hear noise from the room above. Also, starting breakfast a bit earlier would be helpful for early risers like me. But overall, the positive aspects far outweighed the negatives. I would definitely return next time I'm in Istanbul.

    Couples looking for an lovely stay

    Had the best experience with the staff who were always eager to help us they really made us feel like royalty. The breakfast on the rooftop was just amazing every morning we watched the sunrise over the water while eating delicious Turkish food.

    It wasn't exactly budget-friendly but you get what you pay for.
