It is centrally located which is great, two blocks from blue mosque, Hagia Sofia and basilica cisterns. Lots of restaurants. Simple no frills but good place to stay. Staff were great. Right next to tram line which is convenient but sometimes noisy. Highly recommend and reasonable prices.

The location is terrific, less than 5 minute walk to the Hippodrome. The staff were all vey helpful especially the day manager who gave us plenty of helpful info. However, the tram goes right by the hotel so it was a little nosier than expected. And the beds were hard and the linens were not great.

The hotel is in a great location near to the Blue Mosque, Sofia Mosque, Cistern and palace. The only thing to be aware is that the Hotel doesn't accept credit card and their exchange rate is not convenient, so bring euros to pay the stay. Other than that the hotel is good. The view from the terrace is awesome. Breakfast is good.

Book with them, you wont regret it at all. The service both brothers provided was impeccable. They taught me so much about Turkish history and made sure I was welcomed and safe throughout my trip. They are both also very handsome and Egemen made sure I booked the best tours. My flight had a 2 hour delay but Egemen asked the driver to wait for me for over two hours, they were very kind. The terrace is absolutely beautiful, and the breakfast is really good as well. The hotel was clean and very safe. Egemen and his brother were honestly the best. They will take care of you.

5 score hotel! Underrated on bookings! There should be 4 or 5 score for this hotel. I have travelled the world but sultanahmet hotel will have a special place in my heart. Located litetally at the heart of old city sultanahmet, is walking distance from all tourists spots in the area. Rooms were clean, cosy and comfortable. Breakfast is also nice. As a female solo traveller i felt extremely safe and very comfortable. Highly recommend this for solo travellers! Nese and the rest of the staff are extremely friendly, helpful and professional. In short i felt at home in a place where i knew no one. I loved everything about it and i will surely be coming to stay here again!

We booked two room - a double and a single. The major disappointment was that neither of them had a proper shower. What is sold in the name of a shower is a shower head installed in the toilet. The space was too small in case of the double room. The hotel has a very convenient location being within walking distance from attractions but this is slightly marred by its location on a busy tramway and therefore taxis cann
