Wonder Wood Hotel was without any doubt the most beautiful experience in Istanbul. Was the first time for my my husband and myself. Really nice room with small fridge and AC . The hotel is on the heart of Istanbul, close to the Blue Mosque 🕌, Gran Bazar , Spices Bazar and great attractions. Busy place but safe and always full of life . Alperen and Minhaz was a great help for us - we’ve been explained everything about the city , shopping on the bazar . As well we’ve been given a card to use for travel , and to have access to the subway. Maybe feel a small thing but really meant a lot to us . And at end of our staying , we had to leave to the airport at 3am . Minhaz was waiting for us with fresh coffee and 2 sandwiches to take as we could not have breakfast. Amazing and 5* in did . I wish I could give them 10* Thank you Alperen & Minhaz ! Maria & Slawomir - Gibraltar 🇬🇮

This is by far the best hotel I've stayed in Istanbul! The service is incredible.. Zuhra and Nadide bend over backwards to make you feel comfortable. Breakfast on the terrace is just wonderful. Loved all the wood decor, very unique. Comfy bed, good AC, great location, with a lovely mosque and coffee shop on the corner. Everything in walking distance.. felt safe at night as a women walking alone. Will definitely be staying again when I go back. Thank you, Zuhra, for making it such a memorable and pleasant stay!

Not enough plug sockets in the room..

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The staff at this hotel were amazing, especially Enci, who went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. She truly is a super host – always available, incredibly kind, and willing to help with anything we needed. Enci surprised me with a birthday cake and a thoughtful note, which made my day extra special. The hotel itself is in a quiet neighborhood, our room was very clean and comfortable. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for excellent service and a lovely, serene setting. Thank you, Enci and team, for making our stay unforgettable!

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Istanbul! When I arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to get a free upgrade to a bigger room. The room was tastefully decorated, cozy, and very comfortable. As a solo female traveler, I felt very safe here. The street outside and the hotel’s hallways are monitored by cameras, which gave me extra peace of mind. The best part of my stay was the owners. They were always around, super friendly, and made sure I had everything I needed. Their hospitality really made a difference and made me feel welcome. I’d definitely stay here again on my next trip to Istanbul!

We had such a wonderful stay at the Wonder Wood Hotel. From start to finish it was perfect. An amazing location for exploring Istanbul, tucked away in the old part so it's peaceful but walking distance to all the tourist attractions and the hustle and bustle. We didn't have to use any transport as we could get to everything on foot. The room was beautiful and clean and the staff were some of the best hotel staff we have come across, very thoughtful. Inji was particularly helpful in giving us reccomendations around the city. We visited on my birthday but didn't share this and the hotel staff must have noticed on the booking details. We ended my birthday by coming back to the room with a cake and candle and a note from the hotel. Truly wonderful. We would visit again in a heartbeat.

Nothing to add as everything was perfect.

The best hospitality we have ever had, without any doubts!! From the moment we entered the hotel to the moment we leave! Everything was perfect. We were welcomed by hotel manager Inji who is always ready to assist you with your questions. We were served coffee on our arrival. Free tea, coffee, cookies, fruits is available in the lobby. Rooms are super clean and bed sheets, pillow covers are changed daily. Breakfast is very rich and delicious. Location of hotel is also ideal - in a quiet street but very centrally located and close to the tram as well. Our stay in this hotel exceeded our expectations. We will definitely come back!

The hotel door itself was locked, which I discovered later that they had moved the reception to the hotel next door. Apart from this minor inconvenience, everything was perfect!!

The room looks like new and so its bathroom, clean and tidy. My room located in the other wing than the main hotel building which has laundry and kitchen facility where guests can freely use it. Hotel location is perfect, it’s around 10 minutes walking distance to Sultanahmed square and other tourist spots surround it (Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia). Many restaurants, shops, cafes and local souvenir shops for traveler’s nearby attraction.

With the location in the other wing, the stair to access rooms was somehow an area for improvement to its cleanness. A little wall decorations may help as a gateway to a beautiful room.

The hotel is perfectly located, just a short walk from iconic landmarks like Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, and other fascinating attractions. Our room was comfortable, with a wonderfully cozy bed, making it a relaxing retreat after a day of exploring. What truly stood out was the exceptional hospitality. The owner and staff went above and beyond to make my family, including our two kids, feel welcome and comfortable. A special thanks to Injit, who provided invaluable guidance on local attractions and helped my husband and children when they arrived before me. Her kindness and helpful nature made a big difference to our stay. The lady who prepared breakfast was also incredibly warm and friendly, adding a personal touch to our mornings. We also loved the charming cats that roam around the front of the hotel—it was a delightful bonus! If you’re looking for a break from impersonal chain hotels and want a stay with genuine hospitality and a human touch, this is the perfect place. Highly recommended! We had a fantastic experience and would love to return! 😀😍

I really liked the room; it was spacious and clean. We requested two separate beds, which was perfect since we were two friends traveling together. The room was tidy, and the air conditioning worked perfectly, which was essential for the hot Turkish summer. It was just a 5-minute walk to the Hagia Sophia. There's a beautiful mosque next to the hotel, but I never heard any noise and slept like a baby after a full day of sightseeing in Istanbul.

The doors to the bathroom were made of glass. They weren't fully transparent, but still, it wasn't ideal if you're traveling with friends. Honestly, it might not even be the best setup if you're traveling with a partner. I'm not sure if this was only in our room or if it's the same in every room, so it's best to check with the hotel. The breakfast was good and prepared by a lovely lady, but it was exactly the same every day. After staying for five days, it got quite monotonous.

Small cozy hotel with very friendly, helpful and attentive staff. A warm welcome by the manager herself! Inji’s communication and helpfulness were truly exceptional, making us feel welcome and supported throughout our stay. Room was clean and well maintained. Location was very central and just a short walk from main tourist attractions. Turkish breakfast plate was a delightful experience offering a descent range of traditional options with no complaints. Highly recommended for travelers seeking an authentic Istanbul experience.
