I had a mixed experience during my stay at Grand Makel Hotel Topkapi. The rooftop dining was amazing with stunning views, and I appreciated the friendly attitude of the staff, particularly Ferhat and Burcu. However, the breakfast situation was a bit confusing and the hot water in the bathroom was inconsistent, which was frustrating.

The hotel is in a busy commercial area, making it easy to find nearby restaurants and transportation, which I found quite convenient for exploring Istanbul.

The dining options were pretty good, but there was a lack of variety during breakfast, and I had to ask for an omelette with no signs indicating this was the case.

The pool and spa were decent, but I did find the pool water to be on the cooler side and some of the shower soap dispensers were empty.

I recently stayed at the Grand Makel Hotel Topkapi for three nights and found several aspects quite enjoyable, though some left much to be desired. The location was convenient for public transport, making it easy to explore Istanbul. However, I was disappointed by the dining options, as the food quality didn’t quite meet expectations. The staff were friendly and helpful, but communication was sometimes a challenge, especially with some team members who struggled with English.

My stay at the Grand Makel Hotel Topkapi had its ups and downs. The location was super convenient, with tram access right nearby, making it easy to explore Istanbul. However, the dining experience left a lot to be desired, especially with some cold dishes and language barriers with the staff. The rooms were nice and clean, but I expected better from a 5-star hotel.

I recently stayed at the Grand Makel Hotel Topkapi in Istanbul for nine days. The cleanliness and comfort of the hotel were commendable, and the rooftop restaurant offered stunning views of the city (though the windows could use a wash!). However, the breakfast service could improve, as there wasn't a dedicated omelette chef, which is usually expected at five-star hotels. Overall, it felt more like a 3.5 to 4-star experience rather than a true five-star one.
