Marlon Hotel

Staying at Marlon hotel was truly one of the highlights of my trip. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and genuine smiles that made me feel instantly at ease. The staff here treat you like family — kind, attentive, and always ready to go the extra mile to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Specially their manager Mr. Parvin who makes sure everything is well taken care of and makes you feel like family. As a solo female traveler, safety is always a top priority for me, and I can’t express how reassured and cared for I felt here. The environment is not only secure but also incredibly welcoming, creating a peaceful space where you can truly relax. The location is unbeatable — right in the heart of the city, with easy access to all the best places Istanbul has to offer, yet tucked away just enough to provide a calm retreat from the bustle. And the rooms? Absolutely beautiful. Spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated, and filled with natural light, they offer the perfect blend of comfort and elegance. Whether you're traveling alone, with family, or for business, this hotel is a haven of hospitality. I can't wait to come back.

The hotel is literally 1 min walk to Taksim Square & Istiklal street, which makes it a superb and perfect location for all tourists visiting Istanbul. The Taksim metro station is on walking distance so it makes Marlon Hotel the perfect location you can wish for and easily helps you to explore Taksim Square, shopping in Istiklal street, tasting the great turkish food and feel the serene vibe and happenings 24x7 while you can easily catch Taxis and Metro to go nearby tourist sites such as Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Dolmabache Palace, Bazars & Glata Towers. I would specially like to make warm thanks to Mr. Parvin Nazarov for his great services, warm and kind attitude and managing this property very well. He also got us a great discount on Bosphorus Cruise tour and helped in booking a discounted taxi drop off to IST Airport on less fares so indeed many many thanks Gardaş ❤️🙂 I also like to thank Ms. Wafa for making my check in smooth and warm welcoming, she was in touch with me from the moment I made booking till I checked out from hotel. She upgraded us for free to the Deluxe room with nice view and also guided very well about all tourist attractions, hotel facilities and was really up for any sort of help and guidance and has a friendly personality. The hotel has the best facilities in terms of value for money, comfy bed, perfect lighting, nice aminities, daily cleaning and housekeeping which always keeps your room and hotel neat and perfect and gives you the awesome rest, peace of mind and joyful experience of the stay after a long day in Istanbul. I recommend Marlon Hotel 100% to families and solo travelers as the location and facilities are nothing less but totally PERFECT 👍

The hotel is located near Taksim square and 30 second walk to Istiklal, easily accessible with suitcases. This is a quiet place, noise from Istiklal street does not reach it. Safe neighbourhood. The hotel is super clean, with convenient mattresses and nice linens you feel at home. The hotel manager Parvin, his spouse and staff are great hosts, look after guest, give advice. Facilities are great, the hotel is brand new. There is a lift and you can find all (TV, fridge, tea/coffee maker, hangers, drawers, slippers) what is needed in a room. The cleaning lady comes every day and towels are changed on a daily basis. We arrived very early and departed very late, they kept our luggage before check in and after check out. There is space with tables and chairs in a lobby where you can have tea and coffee (the hotel offers). It is value of money and I believe that this is the best hotel located near Istiklal. We were given a very nice room with a balcony and view. I will recommend this place to my friends and will definitely come back once travel to Istanbul again.

Truly Felt Like Family – A Birthday Trip to Remember at Marlon Hotel Our stay at Marlon Hotel was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, Parvin and the team treated us like family. They warmly welcomed us, carried our suitcases to our rooms, and made sure we were comfortable in every way. We were on a birthday trip — my friend's birthday had been the week before, and mine was on the day we checked out. To our surprise and absolute delight, the staff brought us a beautiful birthday cake and sang to us! The cake had a sweet note attached that read, “Congratulations and Best Wishes,” making it such a personal and memorable moment. Beyond that, the staff went out of their way to help us enjoy our trip. They recommended and arranged some lovely activities for us and even organized a taxi to the airport — completely free of charge. Their generosity and attention to detail truly touched us. Marlon Hotel isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a place where you feel cared for. We’re so grateful to Parvin and the whole team for making our trip so special. We left with unforgettable memories and a deep appreciation for their incredible hospitality. Highly, highly recommended — we can’t wait to return!

The location is great, close to shops and restaurants, in a lively area. Staff were very friendly and helpful. One of our rooms was upgraded, so a good surprise there. There’s coffee, tea and water always available, rooms have good sized safes and a fridge. Bed was okay but two pillows instead of one would have been appreciated.
