The hotel is cosy and location is perfect. The staff is very helpful and also the breakfast staff. The breakfast is good but not too much variety and same everyday. The room is small but overall the experience was good and the location wins.

A Fresh Newcomer to Istanbul’s Hotel Scene

Lokalist Istanbul is a welcome addition to the city’s hospitality landscape, offering a modern and refreshing alternative to the older, well-established luxury hotels that are starting to show their age. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with a warm and professional welcome at the reception desk, which is conveniently located right at the entrance. The staff were exceptionally polite and service-minded, setting a high standard for hospitality. The room was spotless and felt brand new, which is not surprising given that the hotel is only a year old. The large, comfortable bed ensured a great night’s sleep, and the complimentary minibar—stocked with refreshments and snacks—was a thoughtful and convenient extra that added to the overall value. The hotel exudes the energy and ambition of a newcomer determined to challenge the status quo, and this dynamic atmosphere is reflected in its excellent service and attention to detail. Breakfast was another highlight, with an impeccable selection of food served in a stylish and inviting setting. Overall, Lokalist Istanbul is one of the best new hotel choices in the city right now. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a modern, well-run hotel with excellent service and great value.

10/10 Exceptional

Nestled just beside the lush expanses of Gezi Parki in Istanbul, Lokalist emerged as a boutique luxury gem that provided a tranquil retreat in the heart of this bustling city. As a solo female traveler, finding a safe, well-located, and welcoming accommodation is paramount, and Lokalist surpassed my expectations, offering a sanctuary with its verdant views and exceptional service. The service at Lokalist was notably distinct from the formal hospitality one might expect at luxury properties. Here, the atmosphere was one of friendly, calm, and caring interactions. The staff’s recommendations were spot on, guiding me to a local fish kiosk for a delightful cured salmon sandwich and to the oldest candy shop nearby for some exquisite marzipan. These suggestions not only satiated my culinary curiosities but also enriched my cultural experience in Istanbul. Although Lokalist is a newcomer in the hospitality scene, it was evident that meticulous thought had gone into selecting the finest elements to create an environment that transcends mere accommodation. From its prime location next to Gezi Parki to the attentiveness of its staff and the quality of its services, Lokalist stands out as a beacon of boutique luxury.
