Esenkent Holidays from AU$648

Lovely place to recover from surgery. Staff comes by 2x per day to replenish tea and coffee in the room. You can call the restaurant for more water bottles at any time at no extra cost. Although one day it took 4 calls and a whole day to get it.. Lots of options for room service. Surgery people, be careful leaving pill blister packs out while having the room cleaned. My pain meds were thrown out accidentally.

Amazing property with amazing staff a few minutes walk from blue mosque, Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace.

Beautiful hotel with great spa, gym and swimming pool. The staff were all lovely and very helpful. And the location is excellent! Within walking distance of everything you want to see and visit in Istanbul. We loved our stay and will be going back again. Highly recommend for families with children.

We stayed at Carina Gold Hotel. We had 2 rooms for 8 people. Room 109 & 309 We were greeted by reception staff with the most welcoming smiles. Halil was so funny and gave us so much information about how we could spend our time in Istanbul. Staff took us to our rooms and signed us into hotel WI-FI, which was a nice touch. In the morning, Halil was kind enough to give us a IstanbulKart to use during our stay. One card could be used for 8 of us. This was very much appreciated by us all. Breakfast was lovely with a nice variety of items, if you would like omelette, you just need to ask staff who will happily provide this. The hotel was very clean and room cleaning was done everyday, staff smiling always. Location of hotel is perfect, near Tram line T1 (Cemberlitas) 2 min walk. 5 min walk to Grand Bazaar 5 min walk to Blue mosque and Hagia Sofia Mosque Fast food restaurant, good for kids. On our last day, we were able to keep 1 room with late check out 8pm at a small fee. On our last day, our taxi was running late. Enis Atis came up to me and requested I call taxi firm and he would speak in Turkish and ensured there was no language barriers. This helped ease my anxiety. He then helped our group of 8 to get all luggages onto the taxi. Carina staff went above and beyond, we are so grateful to everyone at this amazing hotel. InshaAllah we will soon be back.

Would easily stay here again. The location is perfect. Everyone was kind and helpful. At the beginning of our trip they gave us some quick tips about moving around Istanbul and using public transportation safely which were extremely helpful. Highly Recommend
