  Perfect spot for nightlife lovers

  19 Jan 2026

  Jurnal Hotel is an amazing choice if you want to be right in the heart of Istanbul’s nightlife. Located in Asmalı Mescit, just off Istiklal Street, you’re literally surrounded by bars, clubs, great restaurants, and cool cafés — everything is just steps away.The vibe of the hotel fits the area perfectly. Even though the neighborhood is lively and fun, the rooms were surprisingly quiet, clean, and comfortable, which made it easy to relax after a night out. The historic building adds a lot of character and makes the stay feel unique.The staff were friendly, easygoing, and super helpful, always happy to give tips about where to go at night or how to get around. You can easily walk to Taksim, Galata, and many of the city’s hotspots.If you’re young, love nightlife, and want a central, fun, and authentic Istanbul experience, Jurnal Hotel is definitely the place to stay. Would 100% stay here again.

  Location, quiet, great value

  02 Jan 2026

  This hotel was so perfect for holiday stay! The host walked me to a restaurant & showed shortcut to Istiklal main drag, and the location was ideal, just up from harbor funicular (Tunel). Great value & a lift from lobby too. Quiet little street, great breakfast (just beyond Helvetia lokantasi, where host took me) at Casa Foscolo. Enjoy Istanbul here!

  Total disaster

  16 Sept 2022

  This hotel was a nightmare and a real disaster, it totally ruined our stay in Istanbul ! The worst service we have ever experienced !We didn’t get the room we reserved because they consider that booking reservation is not granted and the rooms were full so they gave us a catastrophic rooms, we couldn’t sleep because the AC was making a lot of noise, bad toilet smell all over the place. They enter to our room in our absence to fix the AC (without our knowledge) and they made a huge damage in the room with a liquid all over the place that touched our stuff and leave it like that, when we found this and reclaim, they didn’t do anything about it !!! The stuff is so mean and don’t treat clients properly !!

  Good but can be better

  04 Apr 2022

  I stayed for a week, the rooms are small but practical. The problem I had with this hotel that the room was not clean and one must ask the reception to get trash out or get shampoo. They didn’t change the sheets at all. I hope they fix this problems otherwise the location was good and the staff were very nice.
