staff were very helpful particular Mehmet Can :we give him rating of 10/10. Unexpectedly we had extra person to stay with us , as mum's ( 78 years old) flight was cancelled and we were very grateful for stress free upgrade to a triple room. He recommended and booked for us a day excursion, which was an excellent choice and recomended places to visit and eat, all this assistance helped us to choose activities suitable for mum too, taking into account her low mobility. Our stay exceeded all our expectations. Wonderful service, we had small issues in the room which were resolved in no time. Breakfast was tasty. Location of the hotel is great with short walking distance to the main attractions. We felt like being treated as royalty in the Empire palace 😀

I came to Istanbul for a week for work Everything was good , the location was just perfect for a walk around the city center, staff was so polite, the breakfast buffet was delicious and the hotel room was clean and nice . The staff were attentive, especially Mr. Selem he was most friendly and helpful ever. In the evening's we had dinner at the hotel restaurant Bistro Chef , the food was just amazing and the atmosphere was pleasant, nice music and fresh air , especially Mr. Abdullah was so kind and polite. I would like to say thanks for Mr. Selem and Best Empire hotel staff for creating such a wonderful stay when we needed it. Definitely, I will come back again to this hotel! Thanks

The location of this hotel is great - it's close to a number of top attractions, some being an easy walking distance and others easily accessible by a tram ride - and the closest tram station, Gulhame, is just a 2 min walk around the corner from the hotel. There are several eating places in the same street and surrounding streets of the hotel. The rooms were made up very well and cleaned every day during the course of the morning. Everything was neat in the room. The staff at the hotel are a great team and they are all friendly, kind and very helpful. Overall, I really enjoyed my 4 night stay at the Best Western Empire Palace and would book again if I return to visit Istanbul again!

The location of the hotel is perfect especially for tourists…all the main attractions/historical sites are within walking distance from the hotel since it is located centrally in the Sultanahmet Area. The T1 tram stop is just steps from the hotel as well. the staff are excellent and provided top notch customer service. Ifran was very helpful in every way and made sure that we were taken cared of and enjoy our time in Istanbul. Omar was equally helpful. Highly recommend this hotel if you want convenience and easy accessibility to all the main things Istanbul has to offer visitors.

Absolutely perfect location! It takes 10 minutes maximum of light walk to the port, downhill, and 10 minutes maximum uphill to get to the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque & Topkapi Palace. Close by, there are 2 minimarkets open 24/7, as well as plenty of restaurants. The hotel restaurant is also ok and has great food. Selim from front desk was a great help and extremely kind. There is nothing too much to ask from the staff, simply fabulous.
