Great hotel for ex

Wonderful stay, will definitely choose this property the next time we are in Istanbul. Can't beat the location. We had a room overlooking the street so it had a little street noise but not significant. We are light sleepers and did not need the thoughtfully included ear plugs. The hotel arranged airport transport at a very good price for us, and a portable WiFi hotspot as well. I had a roaming plan but it would abandon me at times, so it was very useful. Staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful, full of excellent tips. Highly recommend.

Perfect place to stay in Istanbul!

We had a wonderful stay! Our flights to Athens got cancelled due to strikes, so we had to scramble and make other plans. Decided on Istanbul and made reservations easily on Hotels.com. The staff were amazing, they gave us a hotspot we could take with us when exploring for free WiFi, gave recommendations on where to eat and things to do. The place was very clean and the bed was comfortable. All for a very reasonable price. We couldn’t have been happier than here for our short stay here!. It is also just off the Istaklal Cadessi, so right in the heart of a main tourist road leading to several major attractions. Convenient to catch the tunnel or metro or walk down the hill to the shorefront walkway.

Lovely hotel in a great location.

The hotel is in a very central location within a short walk to Galata tower. It is in a very lively area close to amazing restaurants and shopping options. The stay was pleasant and the staff was eager to help and offer recommendations.

I love this hotel. It is closed to everything. Only thing is that it is noisy at night as the bars and restaurant open late. I am not a sensitive sleeper and they have ear plugs in the room so it did not bother me. Overall, I like the property and definitely will come back again.

The Story Hotel is now our go-to in Istanbul. It's location is fantastic, easy walk to Galata or Taksim or Karakoy. The food in the area is superb. The shopping is either main street up market shopping, or side street boutique. The best thing though is the staff. They were friendly, went out of their way for us, even upgraded us as they had the ability to do that and get us into the room early from 2 long flights. We couldn't recommend them more and we'll be back.
