During my stay at the JW Marriott Istanbul Bosphorus, I was truly impressed by the stunning views from my room and the exquisite breakfast buffet that offered a good range of local Turkish dishes. However, I did experience a few hiccups with the concierge service, as their recommendations weren't very helpful for navigating the city. Overall, the beautiful ambiance and the welcoming staff made for a nice visit, though some service aspects could use improvement.
