Nestled along the scenic river, this hotel boasts beautiful rooms with exclusive amenities that transcend guests into a world of luxury. the courteous staff provides personalized attention for a hospitable experience while accommodating every request.
We encountered a minor issue with pests in the room. Although the staff responded promptly to address the issue, no form of compensation was offered.

The staff at the hotel were exceptional and provided excellent service throughout my stay. From the warm welcome at check-in to the helpful concierge, everyone was friendly and accommodating. the breakfast spread was amazing, with a wide variety of options to choose from. the location of the hotel was also perfect, situated right on the waterfront and offering stunning views of the city.
There were a few aspects of my stay that I did not enjoy. the rooms were quite small and lacked sufficient storage space for luggage.

The property is elegant and high-end, with a beautiful suite, excellent attention to detail, and a 5-star level of service. The staff is friendly and helpful, with special mention of Ms. Dina Varon, the Guest Experience Manager, and Ms. Gulnar Velieva, who handled check-in well. The hotel has outstanding restaurants, a fantastic Chi SPA with a hamam and Chinese massages, and great facilities like a steam room, pool, jacuzzi. Breakfast is delicious with plenty of choices and lovely staff, and the afternoon tea in the lobby cafe is incredible with quality food and service. IST TOO and Shang Palace are both delicious restaurants, with special recognition for Serhat Vatansever, the restaurant manager of IST TOO, and the Chinese tea ceremony at Shang Palace.
Felt privileged, no complaints.

Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly. The room and bathroom were beautifully maintained. The outstanding service extended to every area of the hotel, from the concierge to the fitness center. The breakfast spread was fantastic, and the attention to detail was impressive, as noted by the provision of reading glasses by attentive staff.
The hotel can be a bit pricey.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location near the boats to the Asian side was convenient for us to explore the city. The cleanliness of the hotel facilities was impressive, as well as the quality of the breakfast. The staff was always friendly and helpful, and they even arranged for us to be escorted to security at the airport.
All was perfect.

During my stay at Shangri-La, I was amazed by the attention to detail and exceptional service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and satisfaction. I was particularly impressed when I forgot my glasses at the restaurant and the waitress immediately provided a box of reading glasses for me to use. The hotel also accommodated my son's allergies, making dining worry-free. The location of the hotel, with its stunning views of the Bosphorus, added to the overall experience. I want to give a special shoutout to Cagatay, Ufuk, and Gurkhan for making our stay extra special. Their friendly and hospitable service truly stood out. I highly recommend this hotel for its outstanding service, hospitality, and location.

I recently stayed at a hotel in Istanbul and had an amazing experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff at Shangri-La were incredibly attentive and welcoming. The concierge provided me with helpful tips for exploring the city, and the housekeeping staff were humble, trustworthy, and kept my room perfectly clean. I also had a positive interaction with the lady at check-out, who quickly noticed a payment error and refunded me the extra amount. The location of the hotel was ideal, and I particularly enjoyed the Chi spa and Shang Palace restaurant, which offered high-quality Chinese food at great value. I was impressed by the professionalism and positive vibes at the hotel. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!
Would recommend this hotel.
