This hotel was such a great find—super affordable for three people for five nights with breakfast included. We absolutely loved our room: it was spacious, stylish, and very comfortable for all three of us. The staff was fantastic—everyone spoke Russian and was incredibly helpful. They fixed the kettle for us, always offered coffee and tea, let us store our luggage at the reception, and even offered medical help when we weren’t feeling well. They answered all our questions and provided plenty of free water every day. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. We’ll definitely come back and will be recommending this place to all our friends!

The location of the hotel is perfect - it’s walking distance to almost everything you need to see in Istanbul. The tram is also just a 3 mins walk. There are plenty of restaurants nearby too. The rooms are spacious. We got the connecting family room which is perfect for our family of 5. I would highly recommend this room for families. We booked for a few nights first initially and decided to extend our stay at Carina Gold. The staffs were also great and kind.

    We chose this apartment because of its amazing price. Despite being quite affordable, the location was very convenient for us, with the downtown area easily accessible by foot or by bus. The apartment met our expectations - simple but sufficient for our needs. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option close to the city, this is a solid pick.

    Location is perfect, a 10-15 min walk to Hagia Sophia, The Blue Mosque, the Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace, a 30 min walk to the Grand Bazaar. Lots of great and affordable restaurants around, lots of markets for food and drinks or souvenirs (they are a lot cheaper here than at the bazaar btw). Easy to get a taxi if you need it. Good Turkish breakfast was included.
