Location

Istanbul, Şişli

Esentepe Mahallesi, Büyükdere Caddesi No:187, 34394 Şişli/İstanbul

Rail transit · 252 m

Istanbul Airport (IST) is about 38 km away, roughly 35 minutes by car without traffic; Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) is about 52 km. The hotel runs no shuttle of its own, but Havaist serves IST and Havabüs serves SAW, each about €5 one way.

Set on Büyükdere Avenue in the middle of the Levent business district. Levent metro station is about 50 m away; Kanyon and Özdilek Park malls are around 2 minutes on foot and Metrocity about 5 minutes. Taksim is a few metro stops away. Taxis pass constantly, but at rush hour they can be hard to catch outside the hotel.

The stay

Editor's notes

Breakfast & dining

The Delta Kitchen, the main restaurant, serves Turkish and international dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner, backed by Delta Bar and a grab-and-go corner in the lobby. Breakfast runs 06:30–10:30 on weekdays and 06:30–11:00 at weekends, and whether it is included depends on the rate booked. Guests generally praise the variety, though some found the coffee and tea no better than a standard business hotel. Room service runs 24 hours.

Room types

All 232 rooms have either a Super King bed or twin beds, plus a desk, individually controlled air conditioning, safe, minibar, iron and tea and coffee set; some add a Nespresso machine. The building has 10 floors, so ask for a higher floor or a corner deluxe room for city views. One guest reported that the curtains did not fully cover the window, letting in morning light, so light sleepers may want an eye mask.

Noise & sound insulation

Windows are double-glazed. A guest on the 8th floor said street noise was not a problem, while another complained about sound from neighbouring rooms. Light sleepers should request a higher floor away from the avenue side.

Extra fees & things to know

Parking is €12 per day and pets cost €25 per night. The official site lists Wi-Fi as free for Marriott Bonvoy members booking direct. Breakfast is charged on some rates. The Havaist airport bus costs about €5 one way.
