Legend Hotel Istanbul

Clean, great location, traditional hotel, washroom could be updated, however it was very clean.

Very friendly staff. Fantastic view from roof terrace, where breakfast is served. Almost all major sights in walking distance.

The Legend Hotel is in a good location and the staff are friendly and informative. The beds are comfortable and the room is neat and tidy, containing a TV, fridge (with minibar), hairdryer (in the bathroom), central heating and a split system airconditioner/heater. Unfortunately, we were able to hear the toilet and showering habits of the person in the next room. During our stay, the bar/reception and foyer area on the ground floor were being renovated. This resulted in all lounge seating being removed, the foyer smelling of paint fumes and the hot water not being turned back on several times (in February).

The hotel is easy walking distance to the Sultanamet and the tram, making it easy to explore all the major sites we wanted to see over 3 days on our own. They do offer tours for those interested. The staff stowed our things when we arrived too early to check in and when we were leaving hours after check-out, even inviting us to have breakfast on the morning we arrived. Our room was very clean and we had fresh towels and the beds made up each day, something not done many places in Turkey. It didn't have a great bathroom but the shower pressure was good.

Nice view from top floor terrace.

The room we got on the top floor was not large, but had a good view of the sea as well as the Blue Mosque. Also the view from the breakfast room was superbe.

This hotel is in an excellent location as it's only a few minutes walk from all the sites in the area. It's also very close to the tram station.

Don't believe their website. They do NOT have concierge service, airport shuttle, currency exchange, or in-room safes. Their satellite TV has one English-language station (ESPN); the rest are in Turkish. In spite of all of this, I enjoyed my stay and would go back to this hotel.

Perfect location, just 5 minute walk to blue mosque. Small room but ok.

The hotel is a very nice, clean and comfortable hotel operated by very friendly and helpful people. Perfectly located in a quiet street in THE quarter of Istanbul.

I would recommend this hotel in a minute. It is within easy walking distance from the major attractions and from the tram. Staff are extremely courteous and accomodating. It was very clean and very quiet.
