Our recent anniversary stay at Ailee Istanbul was nothing short of magical. If you are looking for a place that seamlessly blends the romantic, chic atmosphere of Parisian charm with the deep, storied heritage of Istanbul, this is it.
Located perfectly next to the Tersane Hotel and the vibrant Winter Town area, the hotel offers a unique vantage point of the city that feels both tucked away and central to the action.
What Made Our Stay Special:
• Bespoke Service: The experience started at check-in. The staff contacted me personally via WhatsApp to coordinate our stay, ensuring every detail was handled.
• The Anniversary Upgrade: To our delight, they upgraded us to a stunning suite for our anniversary. The room was elegant and perfectly captured that ”East meets West” aesthetic.
• The View & Atmosphere: The views from the hotel were absolutely amazing, providing a breathtaking backdrop to our celebrations. You truly feel the Parisian influence in the decor, while the soul of the building remains quintessentially Istanbul.
• Extraordinary Dining: The breakfast was a highlight—fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. We also loved the thoughtful touch of complimentary hot chocolate, which was perfect for the cozy winter atmosphere.
The staff truly went out of their way to ensure we had a pleasant and memorable accommodation. Their hospitality turned a simple trip into a lifelong memory.
Highly recommended for couples or anyone wanting a refined, high-touch experience in the heart of Istanbul!

Beautiful hotel with outstanding service, amazing food, and a fantastic location.
My stay at Aliee Istanbul was overwhelmingly positive. The hotel itself is stunning — I loved the facilities, the attention to detail, and the artwork throughout. Staff were fantastic, welcoming, and attentive. I was greeted with a welcome drink and even received an upgrade, which was greatly appreciated.
The food was exceptional. Breakfast was elaborate and spectacular — exactly the kind of experience I love. I didn’t manage to access the hotel bar due to a private function, which was a minor disappointment, but the coffee shop outside is incredible and definitely worth a visit.
The room was beautiful, though initially on a noisy main street. They quickly accommodated my request for a better view. Later, road work at 2 a.m. forced a room change, which was handled immediately, and they provided a new room with a bathtub I had requested. A minor issue with the air conditioning was resolved promptly, and the duty manager offered a free massage as compensation.
The concierge service was excellent, providing helpful suggestions. The only minor drawback was the day-trip company they recommended — it didn’t fully meet my itinerary and was a bit overpriced, but the hotel promptly arranged a refund.
Overall, Aliee Istanbul combines beautiful design, exceptional food, thoughtful service, and a fantastic location. I would happily stay here again and again.
