Guest reviews for Marmara Guesthouse

5 out of 5

Charming and comfortable guesthouse

Pros: I liked the friendly service, the comfortable bed, the mini-refrigerator with cold drinks, the private van pick-up from the airport and the breakfast.
Location: This guesthouse is a 10 minute walk from the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and the T1 tram line taking you down to the waterfront and public ferries.
This guesthouse was everything I had hoped for: clean, quiet, well-situated and comfortable. The staff provided excellent service with a personal touch. The breakfast was outstanding and a time to talk with fellow travelers and hotel staff. You can try local cheeses, meats, eggs, cucumbers, olives and homemade jams and jellies with fresh breads. The staff arranged to have my bags delivered to their other hotel where I stayed another 3 days. The private van pick up from the airport was perfect.
