Ecole St Pierre Hotel

We were here for 1 night on a layover, they arranged airport transfers for us, & we had delicious dinner and breakfast at the attached Il Cortile restaurant. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Hope to return and stay longer.

Amazing staff, so nice, thoughtful. Most beautiful and peaceful space while being right in the middle of one of the most buzzing parts of Istanbul. Can feel the history, yet can relax. Amazing meals, service. There is nothing that I did not like.

Property was clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly, attentive and helpful. N/A

The hotel is in a relatively small, beautifully restored building very near the Galata tower. The breakfast staff is led by the friendly and charming Hakan who guides you through many terrific options from homemade granola, yogurt and fresh fruit to a full blown authentic Turkish spread. The housekeeping staff, especially Elif, are also friendly and responsible with fresh towels during the evening turndown service. The beds and sheets are too notch and it is a low key but classy establishment. The neighborhood is a combination of real Istanbul and lots of local and international tourists with many cafes, restaurants, coffee shops and souvenir stores. Be aware that the hotel is up a big hill from the waterfront. My wife and I are 70 and we enjoyed the challenge but others may want to use taxis to avoid the climb. The hotel is relatively new and has an Italian restaurant that takes up most of the ground floor (half indoors,half outside on a lovely patio. It seems like they are still figuring out exactly how to position the restaurant. It has pizza and pasta but wasn’t very crowded. My sense is that given the high quality food it is going to break through and become more popular soon.

The breakfast was not good

Excellent location, with very attentive and friendly staff. Would stay there again.

Hotel was extremely accommodating and kind all around, the staff was attendant and thoughtful (including the excellent cleaning staff (shoutout Elif) as well as complimentary drinks and snacks from the bar and restaurant downstairs). The rooms were beautiful and well maintained and the courtyard and complimentary breakfast were also great. Galata neighborhood is perfectly situated and made for a great Istanbul travel experience. Overall couldn't more highly recommend!

The staff were super friendly and helpful. Hakan from the breakfast restaurant was a delight, and Elf from the housekeeping team was very hospitable. The rooms, location, service, food, everything was exceptional. The volume of the music coming from the restaurant/courtyard was a bit too loud, started too early in the day, and ended too late.

Perfect location, comfort, the rooms were beautifully designed. The staff were absolutely wonderful, from the reception to housekeeping, from friendliness, thoughtfulness, and just being considerate. The restaurant was great for breakfast, and the staff, specifically hakan made it really pleasant. Simple matters, it would’ve been ideal to have a gym, and some bathroom amenities.

Property was great, the included breakfast was hosted by a very nice team and in a nice quiet Courtyard. Many thanks for the great service Mr. Hakan.

One of the best hotels we’ve stayed at. The best thing about the hotel was it’s staff! Gokberk, Elif, Hakan and Elchin stood out. They were super nice and helpful. The rooms were spacious, clean and very modern. They gave us delicious panna cotta complimentary (probably the best we’ve had). We also had some guests over and they sent complimentary turkish tea to our room. We overall had a wonderful stay! We wish we had stayed there longer.

I can’t give this property enough gratitude..hospitality is top notch.. it literally feels like home between your family.. service and all staff members are amazing people. It’s simply my favorite place and they are amazing in creating a bond with their guests.. It’s up hill .. needs athletic abilities

Gorgeous property with friendly staff. The front desk personel were on top of everything. Our house cleaning person Elif was also a big help everytime we needed extra stuff. Prompt and clean.

The hotel was clean and the room as well, everything was perfect I highly recommend the stay at Ecole St. Pierre Hotel, it will be an experience that will never be forgotten.

It is cozy hotel and it is close to touristic areas in Istanbul. The staffs were very kind and friendly. The have been attentive to our needs.

We had a wonderful stay at Ecole Pierre Hotel in Istanbul. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with exceptional care and warmth. The team went above and beyond with thoughtful gestures and lovely gifts that made us feel genuinely welcomed and special. The hospitality was outstanding throughout our stay, and the cleaning service deserves special mention the room was immaculate every single day. Everything felt well cared for, calm, and professionally managed. A big thank you to the entire team for creating such a comfortable and memorable experience. We would happily return and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul.

Excellent stay and exceptional service.
