Recently back from 5 nights at RUZ Hotels in Istanbul. What a great hotel that I'd recommend to anyone visiting Istanbul,

After a bit of a trek on public transport from Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW), we got a fantastically friendly greeting from Sinan who gave us some water, checked us in, showed us up to our room and talked us through some excellent recommendations for local restaurants and activities.

The hotel has a fashionable, boutique feeling to it, and this extends to the rooms. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the room was clean, and the shower in the bathroom was great. We also appreciated the air conditioning and the complimentary soft drinks in the mini-bar.

We didn't use the restaurant but we did enjoy the rooftop bar for a drink before dinner nearby. The service in the bar was also excellent.

The hotel is in a bustling part of Beyoğlu, very close to the top of the Tünel and the Şişhane metro stop - but even though our room faced the street we weren't disturbed by the noise from the local bars.

The hotel is really onto a good thing with a friendly, approachable and helpful team, excellent service and comfy rooms. Keep it up!

This hotel was a bit of a hidden gem. Everything about it worked out amazingly well. The location was tucked quietly away in the old quarter. The staff were kind and truly helpful. As it is a small hotel it is easy for them to be quite attentive to your needs. Room was modern and spacious. Vibe of hotel was cool with a sophisticated edge. Definitely recommend. Amy K

Book it. You won’t regret it. From the super warm welcome - even at 2am - to the consideration at all levels: in-room and in-hotel touches, the beds, the gym, the rooftop, the cocktails, everything is just so well thought out and the team can’t do enough for you - be that bookings, guidance, or just a little chat. Every single one of the people that works there that we spoke with was just lovely. The pool is super narrow and not as long as it looks in the pics but that’s my only complaint. Everything else was exquisite and the movie-themed neons in each room were a lovely touch for a film nerd like me that I didn’t know was coming.

We ended up not going to another city as part of our trip and just managed to stay for almost all of our remaining days in this lovely spot bar one night where we had to go elsewhere (see other reviews if you wanna know but it was a ‘no’ from us and not a patch on this place) as it was fully booked. Do yourself a favour and just book it.

An amazing stay surpassing expectations. At first I was a little sceptical since some reviews mentioned loud noise, especially as we were staying there on a Friday and Saturday night. However, the stay was fantastic.

Staying in room 206, we were provided an early check in, full tour and a very dutiful explanation of the hotels offerings and recommendations of places to see and restaurants to visit. Eren went above and beyond with providing us with a list of great recommendations and showing us through the city map, highlighting his personal favourites away from the tourist traps.

Greeting us each morning and saying hello on the street when we bumped into him when his shift finished, his hospitality was a real asset to the hotel.

The rooms have everything you can think of, bottle of wine on arrival in the room, full complementary mini bar, all the amineties needed, loafers, shoe horn, polish, fantastic robes, slippers and a lot more. The rooms are decorated as you’d expect in a boutique hotel with a Soho House-esque feel and an unbelievably comfortable bed.

We didn’t have any issues with noise with our room being at the back of the hotel, and for those wanting to explore different parts of the city, I’d thoroughly recommend. The rooftop bar had an international crowd with greats wines and cocktails and fantastic food partnered with great view and attentive service.

For the price I don’t think you can beat it. Great hotel in a fantastic location.

The location is great too if you want to experience the city. You can walk across to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia and you have all the delights of Beyoğlu on your doorstep.

Amazing stay! Modern and stylish boutique hotel. Rooms were super clean and daily housekeeping and towel replenishments were much appreciated. The kitchenette was fully stocked with dishes, cutlery and cleaning supplies including detergent for the in-room laundry machine! The mini bar was also complimentary which was much appreciated. The upstairs restaurant is great for breakfast and taking in the views of the city. In the evening we had dinner sitting at the tables right outside the hotel, great place to watch the busy street and take in the vibe. The location is super central, just a few steps off of Istiklal street and the tünel which takes you down near the water. The rooms were thankfully very quiet given the close proximity to the busy shopping street.

Also a big shout out to Emra the hotel manager for the tour recommandation and flexibility. Last but not lees Forgive me but I can’t remember his name he was usually the overnight front desk. Thank you for helping us when my daughter was sick, we needed to take her to the ER and he was there with us every step of the way making sure we’re taking care of. If you’re a father you’ll understand and appreciate the little gesture and genuine kindness from others intime of need.

Vi er mye på reise, men med flotte fasiliteter og den ekstraordinære servicen som hotellets ansatte kunne tilby skulle jeg gjerne hatt muligheten til å legge til en sjette stjerne :-)

Hotellet er rent, trivelig, svært forseggjort og har mange spennende detaljer både i fellesområder og på rommet. Ta gjerne en titt på biblioteket med mye spennende litteratur både knyttet til reise og kultur.

Rene og trivelige rom finner man mange steder, men her var det gjennomført med detaljer som ikke bare tøfler og morgenkåpe, men også munnbind, ørepropper og våtservietter på rommet, nye vannflasker hver dag. Viser at man bryr seg og gir det lille ekstra.

Vi kom tidlig og fikk tilgang til rommet allerede fra 5 om morgenen uten spørsmål. også dette høyt verdsatt.

På grunn av demonstrasjoner i området, var sentrum av Istanbul stengt siste dagen. Mange politisperringer som gav turister utfordringer med å komme frem. Hotellet ringte til og med opp for å forsikre seg om at vi var vel tilbake på hotellet utpå kvelden.

Flott restaurant på taket med god utsikt, deilige drinker og rause porsjoner med mat.
