Worth weighing

4 to weigh

Rooms are the weakest point — The rooms score below the hotel's overall rating, with some guests finding them dated or lacking in soundproofing.
Check-in window is tight — You can only check in between 15:00 and 18:00, which may not suit early arrivals or late flights.

Parking is limited to handicap spaces — On-site parking is only mentioned for handicapped guests; others may need to rely on valet or street parking.

“My recent trip to Istanbul was amazing, but Elit Palace topped it. Abdulbaki, Serhat, Medine, and Baran were incredibly helpful. The location was ideal for public transport, and both cleanliness and food were superb.”
