What guests think

Across recent reviews, Hotel Ipek Palas stands out for its central location near major sights and transport and for generally friendly, helpful staff, though several recurring issues are noted by guests across stays.

Rooms are often small or dated, with some noise from corridors or the street and occasional AC or Wi-Fi problems. Cleanliness and breakfast quality are inconsistent, with reports of odors, pests, and worn linens alongside praise for a generous morning spread. Overall, expect a simple base best for sightseeing-focused stays rather than spacious, full-service comfort.

Reservamos nuestra estancia en el hotel Miss Istambul durante el mes de mayo para 6 días en agosto, pero al llegar habían cancelado nuestra reserva y no nos dieron alternativa alguna. Nos vimos obligados a buscar otra opción rápidamente y encontramos este hotel, Ipeck Palace, que de Palace tiene poco. Las habitaciones son casi zulos, con espacios y cama mínimos, la ducha rota y sin mampara y la limpieza consiste en hacer la cama, pues ni habían limpiado los pelos que habían caído en el lavabo. Las paredes dejan pasar todos los ruidos, del exterior y de la habitación de al lado. Tuvimos que hacer uso del servicio de lavandería y la ropa volvió con las mismas manchas. Y todo por 125 € por noche. Una experiencia para olvidar

Mixed review on Hotel Ipek Palas, the location is great, alot of shops close by as well as some restaurants, easy access to a tram stop but also you could walk to the big attractions, I'd say the location is perfect. The hotel itself is nice, clean but the breakfast is limited so it was a waste for us as after the first morning we never ate there again. The room was tiny, we only had access to one side of the bed, which was also very small and no room to move, couldn't even open a suitcase in the room had to open it Infront of the door or on the bed but then you had no where to sit. The bathroom in our room also smelt damp but seemed clean. Torn whether I would stop there again

The hotel is located in a good area, with lots of places to eat. Walkable distance to The Blue mosque, Hagia Sophia mosque and Topaki Palace Museum. However, There was a cockroach running around in the breskfast area- wgich we informed insect in the bed then they csme and cleaned the room, toilet seat broken even though we had informed then to fix it they did come and have a look but was still broken. I was shocked that they dont clean and change the bed sheets everyday. When i informed about the room bot being cleaned i got the redponse of we dont clean the room everyday abd you need to put a sign up to say you want your room to be clesned which i was not informed wheb checking in. Cleaness is what lets them down alot.

La chambre est très petite et le siège des toilettes est à côté de la douche et il n'y a pas de place. L'important est que la chambre est très chaude et que la climatisation ne fonctionne pas depuis la chambre, mais demande à la réception de l'allumer Le lit ne peut pas être descendu des deux côtés car il est fixé au mur, sachant que les chambres sont pour deux personnes et que le lit est très petit

L'IPEK PALAS HOTEL est idéalement placé. Nous y avons séjourné 4 nuits au mois de Mars. En chambre économique. Petite chambre, mais pratique. L'hôtel est très central, il permet d'être en 10 min à pied au palais Topkapi, à la mosquée Bleue, à la mosqué Ste Sophie, au pont Galata, au marché aux épices... En moins de 20 min au Gd Bazar, à la Tour Galata. Vraiment un atout qui permet de rayonner et de rentrer à l'hôtel pour se reposer, déposer des affaires ... Le buffet du petit déjeuner est copieux avec du salé et du sucré. Je ne peux que vous recommandé cet hôtel.

The cleaning staff and the breakfast team was always polite and friendly. This is definitely one hotel I would recommend as the location and the hotel are perfect! If I visit Istanbul again, I will definitely go back to Ipek Palas. Thank you to their team for the excellent service.
