This is a very good location in Instanbul. The staff is very kind, the room are modern, clean and vell furnished. As the hotel is located in the most touristical part of Istanbul some rooms may be noisy. This small hotel is definitively a very good place to stay a few days to discover Istanbul. more

We have just returned from 4 nights at the Faros - after checking out the reviews on Tripadvisor. The reviews turned out to reflect our experience. The hotel is ideally placed for first time Istanbul visitors, within walking distance of many of the most popular sights. The tram service from 100m down the road is excellent and easy to use.... more

All three rooms were modern, very comfortably furnished and absolutley clean. They do look like the pictures. The suites are corner rooms on the first three floors. We had the ones on first... more

We stayed 4 nights last November. It's very well located, just two minutes walking from main atractions in Sulthanamet. The room was modern, clean and charming. It's surrounded of many restaurants and you have a tranv station in front of the hotel. We recomend Faros Hotel to everyone. more

I stayed here for three nights in September, 2007. I thought it was a great hotel, especially for the price. One night was free, through credit card rewards, and the other two nights were $140/night. For this price, we got a beautiful and HUGE room with a separate sitting area, french doors opening onto the main street, an LG Plasma... more

You cannot beat the location. It is walking distance to the major sites and the grand bazaar. The hotel itself is very small and so are the rooms. I would rate this as an average hotel with a great location. more
