      rooftop views

      Family with kids should consider it

      The breakfast was plentiful with a rich variety of Turkish delights, and the rooftop had fine views of the sea of Marmara, making you feel like you’re on top of the world. Plus, the staff were friendly, and they always greeted us with a smile, making us feel right at home.

      It wasn’t exactly a budget option but still was reasonable for what we got.

      Recommend for a brief pause

      Friendly hotel, clean room, with a strong shower experience and ample breakfasts featuring rich varieties of Turkish produce, cheeses, and salads. A stunning rooftop view of the Sea of Marmara.

      No drawbacks at all.

      I had a great stay at this hotel, much better than my previous stays in istanbul. The rooftop offered fine views of the sea of marmara and excellent mosques, which made mornings good. Breakfast included a rich variety of homemade pastries and fresh fruits.

      the air conditioning didn’t work well.

      central location near stunning landmarks and delicious restaurants

      I loved being just a few steps from the valens aqueduct and within easy walking distance to the blue mosque, allowing me to soak in the vibrant culture of the area while enjoying the nearby eateries that served delicious local cuisine. as a solo traveler, having a clean and friendly hotel made my stay even more enjoyable, but the fitness facilities could use more equipment to make workouts feasible.

      The sauna was clean and well-maintained, providing a great way to unwind.

      The gym was very cramped with only three machines, making it difficult to work out comfortably.

      I enjoyed my stay at Grand Washington in Istanbul, where the rooftop views really added a special touch. The staff were cute and the breakfast featured a nice variety. The noise from the street was a miss during my stay.

      stunning view
      great location
      complimentary refreshments
      cramped room

      We loved the hotel's location. It was easy to walk to shops and attractions, and the view from the rooftop was stunning. Having complimentary fruits and daily refreshments made it feel special, especially after wandering with our three dogs.

      In my wife’s opinion, the cramped room was unsuitable for families. Extra space would greatly improve our stay.

      rooftop dining
      savory turkish dishes
      clean sauna
      cramped gym
      cold hammam

      The rooftop dining was a delight, especially with the savory Turkish dishes nearby. Byzantion Bistro had mouthwatering meals that made the taste buds dance! Plus, the spa was clean and the sauna was spot on – a perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring.

      The gym was a bit of a letdown with only three machines in a cramped space, not much to work with. While the hammam could use a proper heating fix, this didn’t stop our overall vibe from being pretty cool.

      diverse breakfast options
      room size
      noise issues
      cleaning problems

      I stayed at the Grand Washington Hotel recently. The location was excellent for exploring Istanbul, close to major attractions and transportation. The rooftop offered stunning views of the Sea of Marmara, perfect for evening relaxation. The breakfasts provided were plentiful, featuring a variety of Turkish cheeses, breads, and pastries. However, I found the room to be quite small, barely fitting our luggage, and the noise from outside was disturbing at night. The air conditioning was not adequate, making the room uncomfortably warm. While staff were friendly, language barriers occasionally complicated requests. The cleanliness of the bathroom and bedding was a letdown. The spa facilities were underwhelming. the steam room and jacuzzi were closed during my stay. I expected more from a four-star hotel, especially in terms of room comfort and noise management.
