Had 4 nights in Istanbul, spent our time here lovely. Really enjoyed staying at the extremely spacious and nice styled double room with even a balcony. A hair dryer, a walk-in shower, and bath sheets were available there. The location of the hotel was super - just a short stroll away from a functioning mosque.

We would definitely recommend it. Our family members and we really enjoyed being there. The location was marvellous and incredible, in the heart of Sultanahmet and overlooking river. The amiable staff gave us a well-designed room after a long flight.
The hotel staff was not very friendly.

The location was marvellous, relatively near a byzantine basilica museum. Moreover, it's just next door to the most important landmarks, major attractions and touristic places like Aya Sofia.

Five star location, very luxurious hotel and also pretty clean. Amazing host running the property. Loved perfect decor of the room, plus an ironing set and a hairdryer were at a high level. Historic area next to the hotel. We ordered breakfast, it was simply delicious, nevertheless you can visit Sur Balik Sarayburnu and try local food.
