    • They gave me a room at 6th floor, but didn’t liked it, didn’t liked the view. At night my boyfriend arrive and asked for a higher floor room, but they told him that for security for the earthquake, they where only giving rooms at lower floors. We insisted and at last they gave us a WONDERFUL VIEW AT THE 10TH FLOOR. I will never forget the views I had from there. The most beautiful view of the world, the most incredible magic view, all for me … well and for him :))

    The time I went the roof restaurant was the place for breakfast. What incredible wonderful breakfast buffet they had in that incredible panoramic place... all the Borforo for us.

    If you don't take a room here, come to have a unforgetable dinner at this panoramic restaurant at the top floor.

    At to down floor there is a wonderful cafe with wonderful backery with typical turkish sweet cakes.

    Marmara is the name of the sea of istanbul.
    The Marmara, right in Taksim Square, is a modern high-rise offering splendid views of Istanbul's Old City, Beyoglu and the Bosphorus from its upper floors.
    Groups and conventions often fill its 432 guest rooms. If you like a very central location in the midst of the bustle, this is it.
    The Marmara also manages The Marmara Pera, a smaller modern high-rise hotel about a mile away across the street from the venerable Pera Palas Oteli in the Beyoglu district called Tepebasi.

    The marmara hotel is a 5 stars hotel in the middle of the town - Taksim Square.
    There is a restaurant and a bar on the 18 floor (or something like that) with great view.

    • Plush hotel offering fine views of the city of Istanbul. Very high quality rooms and service. Worthy of its 5 star rating.

    Top class rooftop resturant specialising in seafood. There is also a panorama bar on the rooftop which gives you stunning views of the city and the Bospherous. Both of these places are very pricey (£3.50 for a half litre of local beer). There is an outdoor pool with terrace and also a gym/sauna/solarium which you have to pay for.

    I had chosen the Marmara Istanbul for a 10-days' stay for two main reasons, its location and the fact that it is by far less expensive than the other 5-stars hotels in the city. It is even less expensive than some 4-stars. Anyway when I write that it is less expensive than average I am comparing it to hotels in the same category.
    About location, it is in the most lively part of Istanbul, with a wide choice of restaurants, cafes and shops all around. Moreover it is on a hill that commands a great view of the city and of the Bosphorus.
    Service is great, but this is normal in Istanbul.

    The tower of the Marmara Hotel can be seen from many parts of the city, which means you can see much of Istanbul from there. Being on a hill, most rooms have a nice view, not only the ones on top floors.
    Moreover, if you want to see the view on all sides you can turn on the TV and watch the internal channel showing the view from the camera on the top of the hotel.

    My father once again brought me with him to tag along on one opf his business trips. While he worked, I explored the city.
    The nice part about it is that I got to stay in a beautiful 5 star hotel, with ana amzing view.
    The Hotel Marmara is really nice, and the people are very nice. I would recommend it to anyone that can afford it. I think it is pretty expensive.

    Spa, Gym, Pool, 3 restaurants, really big fish tank in the lobby that is cool.

    This is a typical 5 star hotel in the best location in the city, on Taksim Square. Like most 5 stars, prices are high, in fact, extremely high.

    A double small single bed room is about $150 per night on the internet. Breakfast is extra and costs about $33. Want a beer get ready to shell out $11.50. Enjoy the good location, just bring money.

    The view from the restaurant on the top floor is stunning. The hotel is placed so that the Blue Mosque is centered in the windows as you enter the room.
