Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 7 days ago
TL;DR
Based on traveler experience, it’s usually more convenient to have breakfast at your hotel in Istanbul and save restaurant outings for dinner. Many people keep lunch light with street food and coffee, and try to book hotels with a genuinely good breakfast or at least a decent in-house restaurant.
What the community said
A practical approach is to avoid spending the morning looking for cafés and have breakfast at the hotel, then choose a proper restaurant for dinner, especially if you care about views, service, and a more relaxed atmosphere.

When booking accommodation, many travelers recommend looking for hotels known for a strong breakfast and, if possible, an in-house restaurant for dinner. They see this as convenient, although finding a place where the food is genuinely good can be difficult.

Another practical Istanbul routine is a solid hotel breakfast, a light daytime meal from street food plus coffee and sweets, and then a full dinner at a café, lokanta, or restaurant in the evening.
