DoubleTree by Hilton Moda Hotel, Istanbul

Great location for a city trip in a cozy area full of bars and restaurants and close to metro and ferry

Upon entering the room for the first time the temperature was over 30 degrees, uncomfortably hot. Not exactly what you're looking for after a long journey and took a long time to get it down

We stayed for one night, we were upgraded to a room with a beautiful view and with jacuzzi. It was a very nice gesture

Great location close to Kadikoy bazaar and ferry terminals. Amazing view of the historic peninsula and Marmara sea. Friendly staff.

Location is great. Close to a beautiful area full of restaurants, bars and shopping. Most local based. Breakfast is really good with a lot of options. Staff is friendly and helpful

Our stay was for 4 days, and in two days we had to ask to clean the room because it was not done at the time we arrived. Also the refill of soap and towels was missed few times. This should not happen in a hotel with 5 stars.

Great location, amazing views from the room. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly

The room we had was an inter leading room and we could hear EVERYTHING from our neighbours. I’m sure that this is fixable

Location is good. Near to cafes restaurants
Very clean. The staff are nice and very helpful

the bed is not comfortable. Mattress need to be changed
Parking is expensive. 750 lira for one night

The location was great. The staff was also very kind. The bed was very comfortable and the rooms were big enough.

Sometimes it could be a bit more noisy. It was not a problem for me, but my wife had more issues with the noises of the street.

Room, view excellent - full facilities but internet has to be paid for. Restaurants uninspiring - fixation on doing everything by QR code seriously annoying

Proliferation of QR codes - would put me off returning plus having to pay for internet

Staff are good for receptionists including bell side .

I booked seaside but they gave me 2nd floor which show a little sea but more parking lot.. in addition Booking
.com show 30m2 while agoda show same room as 25m2 with cheaper price. I WANT TO CLARIFY THIS MATTER.

Location, breakfast, service

Location is amazing, people are great, rooftop view is a must see.

Room was just a bit small.

Service was great

We had a room with a joint door to the next room, we could hear everything there. It was too loud at night.

Facilities available onsite, along with location of hotel

My only issue really, was that the ground floor bar table service is slow to none existent. A couple of occasions we left to find an alternative place to eat and drink

Location, inside pool. Rooms on an upper levels offer a spectacular view towards Bosphorus. Good breakfast.

Restaurant and bar extremely expensive. Rooftop pool small. Everything a bit worn and sloppily maintained. One evening my wife left a small plastic bag with several small purchases at the bar. We reported this the next morning but we never recovered it. They delayed the investigation until we had to check out. Two days. We were very disappointed with the way they handled the situation. We were not allowed to see the surveillance footage.

Location was great + view

AC and light was very poor

First of all the hotel is great. Clean and cozy. Good location. Breakfast was hot and tasty. Pool was nice but a bit cold water. Our room was cleaned every day.

I didn't like that upon arrival they unexpectedly asked us for a deposit of 100 euros, which had to be released immediately, 2 days later the money has not been returned yet. The bathroom lacked necessary supplies. They have a great rooftop bar with a great view, but the windows were so dirty that it ruined the pleasure.

Great location. The port and metro station are very close, making it easy to access the European part of Istanbul. Room was very clean, and the cleaning staff was amazing (kudos to the cleaning lady) - they took care of us and our needs to the full extent. Hotel has two restaurants. One has a magnificent view, but for the food I would recommend the other one, called "Gazette".
As a typical Hilton hotel, the room are very functional, and one can find drawers everywhere to stash personal belongings and bought souvenirs.
Surroundings are much more peaceful and without any scammers compared to the European side. One can still buy all the necessary Turkish delights, spices, and souvenirs also in this area, but for much lower prices.

The upper restaurant served os "Asian style duck", but it was raw inside. I haven't heard af Asians eating raw duck, but I would at least hope that the waiter would ask me whether I want my duck raw, medium, or cooked in that case.

The AC system seemed a bit weak, especially at night. Would have wished to be able to fully open my window.

Keep in mind that if one wants to book different excursions with a hotel pickup, it is not possible from the hotels in the Asia side (though this is not a fault of the hotel itself, of course, just a friendly reminder for fellow travelers).

The hotel could have one of the best locations on the Anatolian Side. During my three days stay in Istanbul, I took the ferry from Moda to cross the sea several times. The dock is only five minutes away from the hotel, so I never had to worry about getting stuck in the city’s traffic.

The front desk staff were polite and professional. They treated each other in a friendly manner in front of the guests. The housekeeping staff also did a great job every time.

The “Lagazetta” Restaurant, which also offers room service, was a bit hard to reach by phone. Each time I called, my first attempt went unanswered, and they picked up on my second or third try. On my first day, I assumed that it might just be a rush hours for them. But the same thing happened on the following days at different hours. So if you think you might get hungry, it’s a good idea to plan ahead and allow at least half an hour just to place your order.

I also felt a little uncomfortable seeing such a strong security presence at the entrance, and the staff didn’t always come across as warm or welcoming. While I appreciate the importance of safety, the approach at times felt more like entering a military base or that kind of restricted area than arriving at a hotel. With the help of modern technology and a few guest friendly adjustments, I’m sure the hotel could maintain its high security standards while creating a more relaxed and inviting atmosphere.

I like almost everything, staff are super nice. Room are big enough. Good value for money.

The picture of deluxe twin room which I booked on the website mislead me, it make think the room has two double beds. Actually, they are two single beds.

Location and the attitude of the staff. Breakfast is great and the chefs were amazing people. Very helpful.

Old, needs renovation.

Panoramic view of the sea. Excellent location, near to transportation and wonderful restaurants.

Nothing particular comes to mind.

The location is superb. Short walk to the ferries. Great views across the Bosphorus to the Golden Horn and the neighbourhood has excellent restaurants and not as overrun with tourists as the European side. The pool is excellent. Great comfortable room with crisp bedding.

We’ve stayed here before but this time the staff staff at check in were indifferent and let people jump the queue based on who shouted loudest which I thought lacked class. Not the hotel’s fault but Istanbul is so expensive now- worth factoring in if you are reading this and researching your trip. Also, they’ve removed the fridge didn’t work for cooling water etc.

Location

Turkish hammam: too short, scrubbing and foaming was very simple and not as good as other hotel spas. Even though I took the basic package the foaming and its massage should be good and relaxing. The Turkish hammam technique didn't have a massage with foam., just foam application and bath.

Clean room and lovely housekeeper

We were a couple and an over-10-year-old child. They gave us a room with one king-size bed. It took them 1hour to move us and bring a single bed for our child. Also we have to change the layout of the room because of the third bed.

location is absolutely fantastic right next to ferry port to downtown and 200mtrs for bars restaurants and shopping could not be better . with a view of the sea , the pool on the roof is magic and the gym sauna etc have everything you need and more . lovey walks near the sea and in old kadikoy town at your front door

very little , maybe breakfast isn't the best 5 star experience i have had but its very good in saying that .
