I love this boutique hotel. The SPA is so relaxing. Defintely the Turkish Bath and optional pay services for massage. Tea time is complimemtary each day. Breakfast a modest fee pp but excellent. The rooftop restaurant Olive is excellent for views and Turkish cuisine. The staff is very accomodating and attentive. Your well located to walk to a number of historic mosques and palace plus the grand bizarre

Romance Hotel Istanbul is a superb hotel - I cannot rate it highly enough in every area. Great location in the heart of Istanbul - our every need was met with great service. It is no wonder it is often rated in the top 10 hotels in the world. The room was incredibly spacious and the spa facilities were wonderful.

The staff were very helpful and polite. The breakfast was excellent with many choices and good quality food. The location of the hotel is great (Sirkeci is a very busy neighbourhood though) as the hotel is in walking distance to many touristic attractions. The swimming pool is very small but we were happy with the steam room, Turkish bath, and sauna. Overall, I recommend the hotel if you want to stay in the European side of Istanbul.

We loved the friendliness of the staff, the quality of breakfast, the space in our room, huge bath, balcony and bed, plus amazing housekeepers. Located in the heart of all the sites, so walking was easy, however tram stop 1 minute away. Plus the pool, spa, steam room and massage. We will return to Romance Hotel.

We enjoyed the room for the most part Fridge was very small and it was full of only items you could buy no space for anything else . Staff for the most part was good, there’s was a slight conflict with breakfast (which the tradition Turkish breakfast everything is cold or room temp) and charges on my account but we came to a common conclusion. There is no ice machine you have to ask which is fine. It was clean, spacious, Overall i would give it a solid 4 , The area is surrounded by so many restaurants that u can always eat good and outside !
