"From its location (100m off Istiklal Street in the Pera area of Beyoglu) to the refreshed decor, this is an excellent resting point for every traveller to Istanbul. It is hard to accept that the hotel has been there since 1961 - modern renovations don't seem to show any of the old architecture (outside or in). The lobby is small (expected for an inner city hotel) but the room size and dining areas are abundant for the number of hotel guests. The one annoying thing is the door closing on each floors - something that all hotels need to work out. The noise at night when guests return at different times can be disturbing - especially if there are kids on a floor moving between two rooms. Breakfast is excellent. Variety and fresh. Should be tried by every guest at least once - if not each day. The Junction (restaurant of the hotel) is also good. We tried it for breakfast and dinner. Both outings were above satisfaction. Peak Hotel has become a top choice for my wife and I, for our future trip back to Istanbul."

"It was my first time at an Istanbul hotel, and very nice staff and service. Great food, freshly prepared and accessible prices for European standards. My only problem was the airport night staff, as I asked them where the airport hotel was, and I got pointed in different directions by different staff, who already looked tired in explaining (some of which didn't even speak English). However, once I got to the hotel, I started to enjoy my time in Istanbul and I would go back anytime. Thank you "

"I dont know why there are so many negative reviews, My stay was extremely comfortable. Many thanks to the lovely and friendly lady Aysan for assisting us. Staff speak good English (a rarity in Istanbul), are very friendly and will guide you on the best way of going to different places in Istanbul. Superb location in the heart of Sultanahmet. Extremely clean, prompt housekeeping and room service. Superb breakfast spread. Rooms are clean as well, lots of mirrors though. Only downside I can think of are facilities for disabled guests. The street to the hotel has a slight slope upwards. Main entrance has 5 steps. There is a ramp, but very steep and difficult to push a wheelchair. However, staff are quick in helping you up the ramp. Many thanks to Ayetollah for always helping us. If you are in Block C, the entrance to the elevator has a navigable ramp. However, if you are in A or B, you have to climb 9 steps, there is no ramp here! Use their taxi , its the same rate as outside and safer."
