A lovely stay at a great location in close walking distance to the Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque and Bazaars. Felt very safe and friendly. The breakfast and rooftop dining area was one of the reasons I booked, and could not have been better.

The property needs some renovation especially in the bathroom. The bath shower is not convenient for young children and the shower head and toilet spray did not work effectively. The beds were facing the wrong direction according to Muslim practice as the feet were facing the direction of prayers. Apart from these two changes the hotel was in an excellent location with very friendly team.

Room smaller than looks in the pictures. Good service, breakfast not so good. Nice place, super centric, 8 minutes walk or less from everything, except Boforus cruise. Great time. Important if you want to drink spirits, beer or any alcoholic drink in the restaurant you have to pay it cash, and they do not tell you in advance, be prepared.

Highly Recommend!

Highly recommend the Sultanhan Hotel! We were totally unfamiliar with Istanbul, so we took a chance on this booking and it worked out wonderfully. The location is as stated, walking distance to major destinations, including the Grand Bazaar and Blue Mosque, lots of shops and restaurants nearby, but the hotel itself is on a pretty quiet street and we felt safe in the area. Decent sized room, very clean, great breakfast in the top floor restaurant with amazing views--seriously, no complaints. The staff was very helpful with everything including how to use the excellent (and very close) public transportation, recommendations on things to do, and getting us back to the airport efficiently and relatively cheaply. Istanbul itself was amazing! The public transportation is cheap, easy to use and dependable. The sights are beautiful; I especially enjoyed our Bosphorus Cruise. Would go back in a heartbeat!

The hotel is located in a quiet tree lined road and is close to all attractions and many restaurants and bars. The hotel was comfortable but would benefit from a general refurbishment in some areas, especially the dining room. It lacked some basic finishing touches for us but this would not put us off staying here again at a good price. The staff were kind, attentive and went above and beyond to help us and proved to be excellent ambassadors for the hotel. I would recommend this hotel without a doubt, although paper cups for the fruit juice at breakfast was a little disappointing. Thank you to all of the staff, especially our housekeeper who was exceptionally helpful and friendly. Her personality shone through and she cleaned our room to a very high standard!
