The Marmara Guesthouse really exceeded our expectations, the hostel was clean,very friendly & provided a great breakfast! The only real down sides were that because we had booked the cheapest double room there was no air conditoning which was not nice in 30 degree heat - the hostel did however provide a fan but this didnt do much. Overall we woud definetly stay at the Marmara again it is great value, prefectly placed, friendly and has a great view from the rooftop terrace.

We really recommend this guesthouse. Although it is a very simple house, the family is warm, the rooms are good (with very needed air conditioned for summer time) and the breakfast is a decent breakfast. The only thing we would change is the turkish bathroom - but after all, that´s an insignifcant detail.
I wish I could find places like this one everywhere I go! Very friendly Turkish family with great breakfast.

Booked a double room (whıch was confırmed by the owner) but when we arrıved were gıven a twın room ınstead. Only after complaınıng were we gıven a double room the followıng nıght. Were gıven a dıscount on the fırst nıght but the sıtuatıon should never have happened ın the fırst place.
The location was excellent for Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sofia and Grand Bazaar. Elif and her family were extremely helpful and wonderful hosts. I would highly recommend staying here if you want to be close to main sights and want more of a family feel to your holiday accommodation.
My daughter, sister-in-law and I were so impressed with this family-run guesthouse. The owners were extremely kind and helpful and the rooms, although small, were perfectly comfortable and beautifully decorated with Turkish tent hangings. This is a quiet and friendly establishment - no entertainments but in Istanbul not needed. Hope to go again one day. And the home-made jam is indeed delicious!

The Marmara Guesthouse was wonderful. The staff was helpful and the view from the terrace was breathtaking.
Marmara is an excellent B and B! The staff are incredibly helpful. The breakfast in the morning is delicious! The location is great, only a 5 minute walk from the Blue Mosque, with lots of great bars/ restaurants to explore just outside your front door. A great place! It is quiet though, so if you're looking for lots of fun on the terrace this isn't the right choice, but apart from that it's great!
A wonderful place to stay. The family is very nice. Elif is is always trying to make your stay enjoyable. The location is perfect. Great views from the roof top terrace. We stayed here for 6 days and definitely recommend this guesthouse to others.
