Classy Turkish hotel great location tucked away on the hill. Food, shopping, dining were few steps away. Good internet service. Breakfast was great. It was on the top floor with a view of the city. Comfortable bed, good size rooms. Staff was very helpful. Very close to all the major sites. Be prepared to walk - sometimes its faster. Would stay again at this hotel.

5 Star hotel in the heart of the Old City

The staff were incredibly helpful. Most of all, this hotel is quite elegant and tucked away in the Old City, about a .8mile walk from major sites. It does require some steep walking up/down hill. They have a free shuttle that will take you to the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, and the Grand Bazaar. They are happy to arrange for a taxi to other locations (Galataport, airport, etc.) Beds really comfortable, all marble bathroom nicely appointed with towels individually wrapped.

We had a great experience at the Ajwa hotel in Istanbul. The hotel is quiet and elegant, staff are polite and helpful, the hotel rooms are well maintained and staff are willing to provide a great service to meet all your needs. The quality of breakfast is superb! A big thank you to Abdul Rehman for all his efforts during breakfast every morning. We had a great stay at the Ajwa hotel, my only criticism is that I felt that the air conditioning in our room (207) wasn’t a five star hotel standard! When returning to our room after a day out in the scorching 36 degrees the AC was not sufficient to cool you down quickly. Also, if you have mobility issues then the location might not be for you but the rest is absolutely 5 stars.

The hotel is new and close to sultanahmet square and key historical sites in old instambul ( European side). Staff is wonderful and was always very polite and available to help. We stayed at the White House villa which is owned by the hotel and 10 min away by foot. They can provide transportation if needed. Villa is beautifully decorated and brand new as welll. Location of villa is not that close to hotel so important to coordinate by phone if you need any services done there. Great place for a group of 8 or 10 as they have 4 large bedrooms, can put roll over beds and there are many places in the house for get togethers including a second floor living room, a kitchen area and a typically decorated living room that looks into a private patio. Very good if you have kids who need space to hang out during the day while not touring.
