Definitely not a 5 star by any standards. So platforms should check their rating system before onboarding a hotel under the 5 star category. That said, the location of the place is wonderful, staff is super friendly and helpful and breakfast is great! With the expectations of a 3 star, would love to visit here again!

Magnaura was comfortable, cozy and clean. The rooftop restaurant breakfast had an extensive selection of choices with a grand view. We even ate there at night once. Great staff at hotel. Very accommodating. Convenient to walk everywhere in Sultanhmet area - Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Topkapi. Highly recommend Magnaura Palace as an excellent choice. I would stay there again.

Magnaura Palace Hotel combines a 5-star, white-glove experience with a warm, cozy home-away-from-home experience. It is both traditional Turkish and modern, packed with amenities and conveniences. The location is as central and convenient as can be and the views are the best in Istanbul. Breakfast on a menu of diverse mix of fresh, in-season, and delicious Sultan's table of small plates overlooking the Sea of Marmara on one side and the Blue Mosque and Aya Sofia on the other side. You can't stop taking pictures at the restaurant and the roof terrace above. Finally, the service and hospitality are top notch and always with a smile. They really go out of their way to help and make you feel comfortable. We're definitely coming back!

Fantastic hotel! Excellent location, literally a one minute walk from the Blue Mosque. I was concerned about being a solo woman traveler, and I felt totally safe in this location. Facilities were very nice and clean. Breakfast buffet included numerous interesting Turkish options and was delicious! Rooftop terrace views were spectacular. Hotel staff were courteous and attentive. Hotel owner was super knowledgeable and gave excellent restaurant and activities recommendations, even helping me make reservations. Highly recommend this location.

The breakfast on the terrace overlooks the city and the river and itā€™s an amazing view. The food was very good too.
