Sultanhan Hotel - Special Class

"The staff was friendly. The bfast area has an amazing view, and great options. the rooms are comfortable. The beds are big and comfy. They can use some better pillow options, they were a bit old and uncomfortable. In general it was a great stay. Everything is literally minutes away walking distance. "

Carina Gold Hotel and Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"A fab hotel, in a great location walking distance to the Grand Bazaar, Blue Mosque and Haggia Sophia and other significant sites and tram line. A great neighbourhood to wander around and grab Turkish tea and coffee and all other Turkish treats. The hotel staff provided a lovely welcome, and were super friendly and helpful. The hotel has a lovely vibe, rooms were great and whole place and is spotless! Would return. Highly recommend. "

Fer Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was excellent and the room was comfortable although the glass wall to the bathroom meant keeping the blind down the entire weeks stay. A proper wall would be better. One of the windows had a broken latch which meant that it was slightly ajar which meant the room had a lot of road noise. We only noticed the problem the morning that we left. "

Hotel Amira Istanbul

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were the highlight, so SO welcoming and and helpful. Always a greeting. My husband and I tried their recommended restaurants .... brilliant. The breakfast room/common area/bar was perfect, not only for breakfast but also for a drop-in coffee after a hectic morning. Rooftop bar offered the Bosphorus to view in all its glory. The gym was compact but excellent, loved the water bottle and fresh towel that sat on each piece of fitness equipment. Our room was comfortable and quiet and clean, even though it had not been renovated. Brilliant location in the historic centre. Walking distance to the hippodrome, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and tram. Absolutely recommend."

Asmali Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed for two nights at the hotel in the central Old Town, near the Blue Mosque. The location is very convenient. The staff were friendly and kindly allowed us to store our luggage on checkout day before our flight. We loved the buffet-style breakfast—it offered a wide variety of delicious vegetables, all cooked perfectly. The only minor issues were that the coffee machine was not working during our stay, so we had tea in the mornings, and the toilet was running and making loud noises, but it was fixed the next day."

Hotel Saba Sultan

10/10 Excellent

"Very charming Turkish hotel. Excellent location, good breakfast and safe tourist-friendly location. About 1 hr 15 minutes from the airport. Front desk people's English can be better. Had miscommunication about my airport transfer - I though the transfer was paid and scheduled, but turned out the front desk person did not understand me. So, double check your taxi's scheduled! Otheriwise would stay again."
