love everything about Opera Bosphorus, we have been to 4 hotels before this and I am super glad that Opera gave us the ended holiday rest that we need. We booked 2 rooms and honestly, the Royal Suite could fit the family of 5. we were greeted with an awesome view of Bosphorus. the Deluxe Room also had partial sea view and it was great as well.
Love the staff handling our stay. Shout-out to the 3 staff that attended to us, Yassin, Maya and another person during our check-out. some mistakes were made but they were quick enough to rectify it. Thank you Opera for making our 5 days stay fabulous with an awesome new year bang..

A great stay -
A fantastic stay throughout, with great hospitality shown, especially a string of flight delays coming into Istanbul.
The room was fantastic, with great views over the Bosphorus.
Facilities were great, and location just around the corner of Taksim Square, which never sleeps !

Excellent service overall, unique location, ease of access to top destinations and transportation facilities. Very friendly staff, excellent view to Bosphorus Sea and great breakfast options. Desirable that some of service men and women can speak English though. I highly recommend Opera Bosphorus

The staff was wonderful. Our room was large and clean with an excellent view of the Bosphorus.The AC was top notch.
The spa, which includes fitness room, pool, Turkish Bath, sauna and steam room were an added bonus.
The location is close to Taksim without being in the center of the crowds and noise.
It is also within walking distance of Kabatas pier, where ferries to the Princes Islands and other city piers run.
I wouldn't even consider staying at any other Istanbul hotel.

Great location, great price, great view!
The hotel is in a great location close to Taksim Square with shopping and dining etc, and a short walk to the ferry if needed.
The hotel was clean, well staffed and comfortable. Our double bed was separated to twin beds (friends in same room) late in the evening on arrival, breakfast was good.
The hotel also has valet underground parking.

The property was in a great area for my trip objectives. The hotel was clean and comfortable and the staff and service were great. Every staff member I encountered was very friendly, professional, and attentive. I especially want to thank Hayri and Erdal for their assistance when I had a couple of specific requests. I found the Opera Hotel Bosphorus a wonderful choice for my stay in Istanbul.

This is a really good high quality smaller hotel. Staff was very attentive to needs and were helpful navigating Istanbul. I would recommend getting the room facing the Bosphorus. It is a really nice view. This location makes for easy getting around. The tram station in a hike down some steep sidewalks. Easy to get to

I have previously stayed in this amazing property in 2016. The property is high and nestled on the Bosphorus call me a home body but you kind of don’t want to leave your room the views are amazing in the Bosphorus rooms and spacious. 2 Restaurants on property have a variety of local and foreign options, customer service is remarkable and seamless. Locality you are in the centre of all the attractions Istanbul has to offer. Enjoy

The best part was the outstanding seaview and the spa (steam room and sauna). The pool was closed. They also have a Starbucks at reception which is open til late. I didn't eat anything but checked out the Skyview restaurant which has awesome views. The staff are very welcoming including Ahmed at the spa.
The surrounding area is ok but not upscale like the Beskitas area which is close by and a better choice if that's what you prefer. You can walk to the hotel from the Taskim station but it's uphill or Kabatas tram which is downhill.
