We found this hotel on the internet and took a chance. We were very pleased with every aspect of the stay. You could hardly ask for a better location. The staff was terrific, we found no language barriers at all. The bathroom was surprisingly modern. The view was magnificant from our lovely 4th floor room as well as the restaurant.... More

Warm and welcoming service from the moment we arrived; we were invited by the ever-hospitable Mazlum to complimentary tea in the charming 4th floor restaurant (overlooking the Bosphorus and Sea of Marmara); had dinner there twice, which was a treat; and we got to discover the pleasures of Turkish wine and raki! Thorough and filling breakfast buffet, wonderful breads, homemade... More

Stay – 16/04/12 – 22/04/12. Megara Palace hotel was as usually welcoming. But few things were changed compare to my previous stay in august 2011. Staff members are extremely friendly and helpful but unfortunately only receptionists speak English. The best think with this hotel is a perfect location – close to all historical places and on the quite street. Taxi... More

I stayed in Megara Palace for four nights in April 2012. We found this hidden pearl via Tripadvisor: cozy, small hotel, polite staff, good breakfast and a perfect location. I´d advise you to pay few more euros to get a room from the 4th floor. You´ll get the most amazing view over the Bosphorus, the strait connecting the Black Sea... More

I was here for three nights in April. I am not sure why it has so many great reviews, but here is what I experienced: 1. There seemed to be only two people working here who spoke any English, but not well! There was rarely an English speaking person around when I needed one (morning, evening) as the English speaking...
