This hotel is an ideal location and very close proximity to all the main visiting sights. It is a clean and relatively new hotel, with classic decor and spacious rooms. The staff are really helpful and friendly. Many thanks to Ferhat, Aykut and Hamza on reception who were really accomodating. The cleaners didn’t speak much English but were lovely ladies called Aynur and Kadriye. The only thing I would say is the choice of breakfast items isn't great and very basic. If this offered more hot food, it would be amazing in my opinion! Saying this, the staff members Serhat, Yiğit and Halit went out of their way to do whatever they could to help, always smiling which was lovely. I would definitely recommend this hotel for everyone.

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Bender, the room was excellent and the staff were helpful and attentive. It's conveniently located close to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, while the breakfast room offers a 360 degree view of the Blue Mosque and the Bosphorus. At the end of our stay, we were given some complimentary souvenirs, including a fridge magnet and a box of Turkish delight which was a lovely surprise. I would highly recommend it and we'll definitely be coming back again!

Couldn’t do Better than Bender Hotel
First, the location is perfect: so close to the Topkapi Palace; Blue Mosque; Hagia Sofia; Basilica Cistern; and more. Second, the hotel is modern, clean, has comfortable beds, and spacious rooms. Finally, the staff is extremely helpful, not just for the hotel, but also for tours, advice and transportation to and from the airport. I’m totally pleased.

A lovely, well located, well appointed, hotel - I stayed for 14 nights! My room was spacious and comfortable, and the buffet breakfast (over the road) was great. The staff were all lovely, particularly Aykut at Reception - he was ever friendly and helpful! You couldn't do better for a place to stay in Istanbul.

깔끔하고 좋은 숙소. 엘베없음 조식별로
숙소 깨끗하고 뜨신물도 잘 나오고 직원분들도 다 친절합니다. 엘리베이터가 없기는 해요. 위치도 나름 안전한 느낌이 드는 쪽이라 좋아요. 다만 조식은 기대하지 않는게 좋을듯 합니다ㅜ 그냥 나가서 카이막 드세요

Schönes und sauberes Hotel in unmittelbarer Nähe zu den großen Sehenswürdigkeiten (Blaue Moschee, Hagia Sofia oder Topkaki). Die Zimmer sind groß und altmodisch eingerichtet. Das Personal höflich und hilfsbereit. Der Frühstücksbereich ist jedoch im Untergeschoss ohne Fenster.
