An average hotel with a fantastic terrace view!
If you want a convenient hotel to explore by foot all attractions in Sultanahmet area and enjoy breakfast with a great view of the Bosphorus, Sayaben Gold hotel can't be beaten. It is also convenient to catch the ferries whether you want to go over to the Asian side or to Seriyar on the European side. Eminonu port is only a 12-15 minute walk.
To enjoy this convenience, you may have to sacrifice some services that you expect a hotel to have. We spent 3 nights here in late August 2018. There was no shower gel in the shower. The man at the front desk gave us small bottles of the shower gel with a promise of filling the container in the shower the next day. It was never filled. The coffee supplies were never replenished. There were no cups to drink water. The breakfast buffet, served on the terrace, could also be improved. Instead of fruit juices, there was fruit punch. The coffee was instant and there was no toaster to toast bread slices. On the positive side, one can enjoy the ferry and ship traffic on the Bosphorus while having breakfast. The roof terrace is always open, and we enjoyed the night views as well.
