The Artisan Hotel Istanbul - MGallery Collection

If you’re looking for a hotel with character, style, and a peaceful atmosphere in the heart of Istanbul, The Artisan MGallery is a true gem in Gümüşsuyu. The hotel blends contemporary design with artistic details, offering refined comfort and beautifully designed rooms with memorable views of the Bosphorus. The Michelin-starred rooftop restaurant Topaz and the Art&Kitchen bistro complete the experience with creative local dishes and exceptional cocktails — perfect with the skyline of Istanbul as your backdrop. Service is outstanding, with warm, professional staff and a dedicated butler who escorts you to your room. Spacious, bright rooms with Bosphorus views are the highlight of the stay, and amenities like toiletries, a well-stocked minibar, and plush bathrobes add extra comfort. The beds extremely comfortable, though the windows are positioned a bit unusually — something to be aware of, but it doesn’t take away from the overall experience. Overall, The Artisan offers much more than accommodation — it delivers a truly memorable stay for anyone wanting to explore Istanbul with style and ease. 10/10.

Fantastic hotel & exceptional services! We have been to the Artisan Hotel Istanbul many times - every time we visit Istanbul. The hotel is fantastic. The services are exceptional. Rooms are clean, comfortable and quiet. Breakfast is delicious. Its location is excellent, walking distance to Taksim square, Galata tower, Dolmabahçe Palace and other attractions. All staff are friendly and attentive and always make effort to make us feel special. We would highly recommend this hotel. We can not wait to go back there again!

This hotel belongs to the Accor Hotels group and stands out for being exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and efficiently managed. I really appreciated the atmosphere of the property — everything feels organized, modern, and comfortable from the moment you enter. One of its biggest advantages is the location. It is situated just a few minutes’ walk from Taksim Square, making it extremely convenient for exploring the city, accessing transportation, or enjoying the vibrant neighborhood filled with restaurants, cafés, and shops. Overall, it is a very reliable and pleasant place to stay, especially for travelers who value cleanliness, safety, and proximity to key areas in Istanbul.

The hotel was absolutely amazing, the staff were super friendly (especially Ozan) who looked after every need of ours. The room was super spacious and reasonably priced. The breakfast was a mix of continental and a-la-carte and we enjoyed every dish on offer.

We stayed in The Artisan Hotel for our first time with our toddler in Istanbul and couldn't be happier. The staff we very polite and attentive. We booked the Deluxe Double corner room and the room size was just perfect for our toddler. I would also like to thank Chaker our housekeeper for assuring we had everything we needed and even going an extra mile to get my daughter a balloon. She was so happy and I really appreciated that. Thank you Chaker and staff for such a memorable experience.

The location is great, a 10-minute walk from Taksim square and about the same walk from the Kabotas tram station offering direct communication with the old city. The staff was very friendly and efficient, the room was cleaned daily, fresh potable water always available in the room free of charge. the restaurant/breakfast room on the top floor has a spectacular view of Bosphorus. The breakfast is a bit overpriced

I absolutely loved this hotel!!! The location was prime center to the tram and amazing food. I was so incredibly thankful and impressed with the recommendation of Ali Ocakbasi on the first night! The staff was gracious with everyone. I can't go without mentioning the gentle giant sentinel dogs guarding at the front.

We were able to check in early which was very welcome. The reception staff and concierge were always friendly and welcoming. Our room was spacious, clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The included breakfast was served in the rooftop restaurant which afforded the most amazing views over the city and Bosphorous! There was alot of choice and you were also able to order from the menu. However some of the hot offerings at the buffet were actually cold. The location is quite good, but a bit of a walk uphill to Istiklal and a walk downhill to the ferries etc, so this could be a problem if you have mobility issues. However, we really enjoyed our stay here and would stay again and definitely recommend this hotel.
