I've stayed in this hotel back in July and it was one of the best experiences I've had in Istanbul. The hotel is clean, spacious, well maintained and is equipped with a gym, pool and spa and all wellness facilities you would want in a hotel. The breakfast buffet was the most delicious buffet I've ever had in a while. The chef literally supervises the team on spot and the food comes out fresh from the kitchen right infornt of you. The staff on ground were lovely and I cannot give an exception to any as they all were very welcoming and hospitable. I would highly recommend staying here and will certainly make a return for my next trip to Turkey. Keep up the good work Melas Team!

Melas Hotel Istanbul is one of the best hotels I have stayed at so far! The staff is so welcoming and helpful that it truly feels like you are at your own home. The room service and housekeeping staff were so sweet and always had a smile on their face. Rooms were nice and clean and the amenities available were also wonderful. I had an awesome experience and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone coming to Istanbul. :)
