08 December 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: paramount among my expectations of accomodation is always cleanliness and Maramara did not dissappoint. İn addition the family is friendly and helpful, the food is great (you,re saving at least 15 lira a day with this breakfast) and it is located right in the heart of old İstanbul. We travelled with a 7 year old and this was an excellent choice for a family.

Disliked: We are Canadian and like a cool room. We found the duvets a bit warm and the room a little warm.

Liked: It was really relaxed and comfortable. The location is fantastic. The breakfast was great. But best of all was the assistance provided by Elif. She has incredible travel knowledge and nothing was too difficult for her to help us with. The tours and experiences that she recommends are spot-on for great Istanbul experiences!

08 May 2010 Catriona would recommend this property

Liked: We had booked a room with shared facilities but they were just finishing off renovations and now only have private bathrooms. We were the first to stay in our room. The service and hospitality was excellent. The breakfast included was one of the best we have had in our month of travel around the Middle East, made even better by the views from the roof top terrace.When we first checked in WiFi was only available on the terrace but 1/2 way through our stay they upgraded their modem and we had wifi in our room.
