White House Hotel Istanbul

The staff was AMAZING! We arrived at 7 in the morning after an 11 hour flight from Vietnam, not expecting to check in, just wanted to leave our luggage. We were given coffee, provided an upgraded room, and were in our room within 30 minutes. The front desk manager helped us book trips, provided recommendations of what was available within walking distance, and gave us great directions. The bell boys, breakfast staff, and housekeeper all wanted to make sure we had everything we needed. If you travel to Istanbul, this is a great place to stay and within walking distance to all the main attractions.

Excellent hotel in heart of Istanbul, easy walking distance to just about everything. Breakfast was very good with what I would say was a cross between authentic Turkish options and European/American options. This made the meal more adventurous and appealing. Rooms were on the small side consistent with what we have found in other European countries but were well appointed, very clean and decorated such that it made it feel like a dream state. Excellent staff who treated us like royalty! Plenty of restaurants nearby for lunch and dinner. Highly recommend for comfort, value, location and treatment by hotel staff.

The hotel staff are exceptionally kind, caring and friendly, they greatly increased the enjoyment of our holiday. The hotel is beautifully appointed, spotlessly clean and high quality material used. The rooms are of a good size, sound proofed and the air conditioning unit is very quiet and attractive. The breakfasts on the roof terrace with inside glass fronted section, is generous, with a wide a wide range of buffet items, and the service is excellent. We give our special thanks to Ada, on reception, and the rest of the team, who made wonderful effort to arrange our tours and visits and our overall experience was superb.

This is the nicest hotel in Turkey for sure! We returned for a second stay and our welcome was even warmer than the first time, if that is possible. Kemal and every single member of the staff were fantastic - friendly, responsive, going out of their way to make us at home. The owner has obviously got an incredible eye for detail and hospitality and it shows everywhere. There is a suggestion book in the lobby and we had absolutely nothing to suggest because everything was perfect. Wonderful room, lovely bed, quality sheets, pristine bathroom, hot shower with good pressure, great breakfast … I could go on and on. Amazing place to stay.

The most beautiful building on the street, the hotel is not big but very cozy. The stuff is extremely polite and helpful. They have solved all our problems, answered all our questions, helped us with transportation cards and restaurants. Their morning services for breakfast were very pleasant. The building is soundproof, we were not disturbed by our neighbors. Airconditioning was working perfectly. Cleaning service was very good, the bathroom condiments were at hand and always replenished. The hotel was providing free bottled water, tea bags, etc. The hotel is very close to the tram station, cafes and restaurants. An opportunity to go anytime by the elevator to the upstairs terrace with a view on the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque and a great coffee machine was an additional bonus. From the beginning ceremony to the last minute of our presence and final gifts from the hotel, our experience was very pleasant. Olga Tarassova, Seattle, USA
