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.
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.
I didn't stay there.I had dinner at the roof restaurant.The view was the best i have ever seen.The food was very good but quite expensive 25-30 euros per person.The roof bar is excellent too and you have to go there for a drink. last visit on November, 2003.
I choose this hotel because of location...its mean in the center of the city and not to far to the venue ( i visited congress in Istanbul ). They give me a good room....view to Taksim square.
