I want to share my experience staying at The Bianco hotel Pera. This was my first trip to Istanbul, and I spent about a week checking out different hotels. I had three options, and at first, I was going to book another hotel. But at the last minute, I changed my mind and went with De Bianco Pera—and honestly, I couldn’t have made a better choice! 📍 The Location is Just Perfect The hotel is in the Galata Tower area, and it’s only a 4-minute walk to the tower itself. I think this is one of the best areas to stay in—there are so many nice cafes, restaurants, and souvenir shops around. And if you want to explore more, Istiklal Street is just 7 minutes away on foot, which is super convenient. Another thing I really liked is that there’s a bus stop literally 100 meters from the hotel. If you don’t want to take a taxi, you can just hop on a bus and easily get to places like the Grand Bazaar or Dolmabahçe Palace. I took the bus a couple of times, and honestly, the travel time was about the same as a taxi. 🌟Super Friendly and Helpful Staff One of the things that stood out to me the most was how nice and welcoming the staff were. They were always there to help, super friendly, and just made the whole stay feel warm and comfortable. I really appreciated their attention to detail—it’s the kind of place where you feel genuinely cared for as a guest. One thing I really appreciated was the breakfast. No matter what your food preferences are, there’s something for everyone. But what stood out the most was how well they take care of you—you definitely won’t leave the table hungry! The staff makes sure you’re comfortable and have everything you need. It’s the perfect way to start the day before heading out to explore the city. 🌟Rooms That Look Even Better in Person When I was booking the hotel, I looked at the photos, but honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect in real life. Well, turns out, the rooms are even nicer than they look online!

“THE BIANCHO PERA” Istanbul a taksim hotel is the best choice… Located in the historic heart of Istanbul, this luxury hotel is within walking distance of major tourist sites like the galata tower,istiklal caddesi…. Close to the metro and bus station, about 100m The location is ideal. The room was perfect also offers exceptional service, elegant rooms and a magnificent view of the Bosphorus Thank you for the whole team and A special thank you to the best person at the hotel who works at the reception “ZAFIR” It was an excellent welcome and great kindness.

They could work on the breakfast

Really good service and hospitality. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The location couldn’t be better, just next to the metro and near de Galata Tower and Istikal street. Also bageries and small market just next to the hotel.

The toilet was a little bit small and sometimes it smelled sewage. Also the walls were very thin and you could hear the neighbours. This was not a big problem tho.

I really liked the location, it’s right next to Galata Tower in a beautiful and cozy area. The view from the hotel was amazing, you can see the water and the sunsets from this side are just gorgeous. The staff were very kind and caring, especially Kadri and Zafer — they made me feel very welcome. The room was comfortable and had everything I needed.

the location is great, very close to Sishane metro station, Galata tower and Istiklal avenue.

the room was a bit small.

Amazing service especially Zafir at reception, very friendly helpful and caring. If I will come back to Istanbul, I will stay here again. Location is perfect and everything was amazing. Thank you guys.

I will definitely recommend this place to my friends and for sure I will stop there next time I am coming to Istanbul. The hotel has an awesome location! Strongly recommend it to people who come to visit all sights that are mandatory to visit :) We were walking around 30km every day and it was amazing, as we had a chance to stop at the hotel to rest and then continue our trip. The description of the rooms was the same as expected, so you can trust the photos of the apartments. Especially, I want to highlight the work of the staff that was great. They helped us a lot doesn't matter if it was day or night. Special thanks to Latif, he is a great guy. All the minor problems that we had were fixed immediately.

There is nothing to complain about, I would just mention that people who choose Seaview rooms have to be ready for a small noise from the road beneath windows. I hope that the owner of the hotel will find a budget for new windows, in other cases I would recommend just changing a window sealer, I guess that the old ones are just too thin.

Great location (Few steps to Shishane metro station-location nearby to Galata tower and Istiklal Caddesi) Wonderful and helpful stuff. Very good wifi speed and coverage. Very comfortable beds. Shower is very good.

Average cleaning of the rooms and restaurant, maybe less than average. For the breakfast, they need to improve the quality of the food (soup and coffee)

the staffs are very helpful specially Yasin and Noah. they are very friendly and helpful. location is very great and near to the metro station, bus station and Galata Tower

the breakfast is very poor.

Great location, friendly staff

They need to replace their joinery, it’s very loud from the street outside, if you are a light sleeper you will have a problem.
