Best of Turkish Hospitality!
Excellent hotel and amazing staff that made our stay really great! Our room with hamam was kept clean and stocked with essentials everyday by the wonderful housekeeping. Thanks especially to Yohan who always helped us out by answering our questions and providing honest suggestions and advice!! Hotel is at a prime location; walking distance to all the tourist attractions such as the Topkapi palace and Agia Sophia. It also has an amazing restaurant and mini mart next door to the left if you are in need of essentials or a quick bite. Best point has a delicious and hearty breakfast everyday on the topmost floor as well as great panoramic views. No elevator but staff will help you with luggage if necessary. They also provide tea time and snacks from 2-7pm which is very convenient for a pick me up. One minor complaint was we had a very limited selection of English channels to watch on the TV, so never really could use it on the rainy days. But thankfully they have fast, free Wi-fi so we enjoyed our Netflix shows instead. Single laptop and printer is available for use in the lobby. The entire hotel is non-smoking. Best point hotel provides an authentic Turkish experience at a great value. We would absolutely love to stay here again on future trips to Istanbul! Thanks for a great experience and first impression of Istanbul!

The hotel is located on a great street.. quiet at one end and active on the other end. The staff are friendly and won't spare the effort to help you. The breakfast had many varieties that I didn't see in all of the hotels I stayed at during this trip.. so I would strongly recommend to stay there.. as you also get to be very close from Sultan Ahmet.. love it. And one thing the hotel cab consider.. I just better pillows

Nice little hotel in a great location.
We didn't know what to expect as the driver searched narrow streets for the hotel. We were pleasantly surprised by the hotel when he found if. We were travel weary and Johan immediately made us feel very welcome. Upgraded our room for free. Gave us the name of an excellent restaurant and a shop for last minute shopping close by. We were on our way home, but the hotel is very close to major cultural sites in Istanbul. No hesitation recommending this hotel.

Fantastic family-run hotel where they paid attention to our every need. We enjoyed the fabulous breakfast on the roof-top terrace as well as the snacks and wine each evening. It saved us lots of money on restaurants.

Instanbul Delight
Superb Stay. Lovely hotel in the heart of it all. We had the room with the balcony overlooking the Blue Mosque and it was so scenic going to sleep and waking up with the mosque in our view. What makes this hotel superb is really simple- the staff. From the moment you walk in, till check out, they go out of their way to take special care of you. Loved the afternoon snacks and I can't even begin to complement the morning breakfast- unlike any other!

Perfect 5 star hotel facilities stay at Istanbul
The rooms were clean and made up everyday. One amazing thing was the service by hotel staff and the view of Blue Mosque during the terrace breakfast. This hotel also provides you with 4-5 different bath soaps to try out, which is really a good way to know what you like before you buy Istanbul soaps. Amazing view, good service and comfortable stay.

Great hotel! Staff sits you down and welcomes you with wine, nuts and Turkish delights upon arrival. The hotel is within easy walking distance of the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace. The rooms are very nicely decorated, the bathroom amenities include hand made soaps and toothbrushes along with the usual shampoos and lotions. The breakfast buffet is extensive served on the rooftop terrace which has views of the Blue Mosque and the sea. and there is a happy hour every evening. If you have difficulty with stairs though, this hotel is not for you.

Wonderful Boutique Hotel!
The location of this hotel was perfect for our trip. We were greeted with a welcome drink and Turkish delight! The view from their rooftop dining area was wonderful, overlooking the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia. The stay also included a complimentary breakfast in the morning which was absolutely delicious with all kinds of tapenades, breads, cheeses, and fruits.

Ideal hotel for Old Town Istanbul
The standard rooms are fairly basic and there is no lift. However, the service from the staff is excellent and more than makes up for the lack of facilities. Staff are on hand to welcome arriving guests with a drink and baklava. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Meze are available free of charge in the lobby in the late afternoon and these are replaced by cakes and pastries at 7 30 pm. Tea/coffee is also freely available. Breakfast (on the top floor with views over the city) is buffet style but the kitchen will make omelettes if requested. Freshly squeezed orange juice is provided as is an array of fresh fruit and bread/cereals with sweet and savoury items. The hotel is approximately 10 minutes walk away from the main sights so is ideally located.

Best Point Hotel is the Best Hotel
We had a four night stay and it was great. There were 5 in our party and the owner, Fatih, and his staff could not do enough. The breakfast on the roof terrace was really good, plenty of choice and special requests no trouble. The freshly squeezed orange juice is fab. Fatih will give advice on what to see and how to get there. He will also book restaurants and arrange free transport to the restaurant. We had a very enjoyable stay and will definitely stay at Best Point again.

Great location from which to explore Istanbul. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good value. The buffet breakfasts were excellent, as we're the snacks available in reception throughout the evening. We had a wonderful holiday here.
