Staff is very kind and friendly, recommended major tourist sites and itineraries for our two days stay and provided us a city map. Perfect location, just a few minutes walk to blue mosque, 4 minutes walk to Havaist 11 shuttle bus location which can easily get to or from Istanbul airport. The breakfast was also good, highly recommended!

We had absolutely amazing stay at the hotel. It is located in the heart of the old city of Istanbul, just around the corner from the blue mosque. The room was very cute. The view from the terrace was astonishing. The breakfast was outstanding. Thank you for the team for providing a good service and making our stay happy.

A gem in Old City

A gem in the Old City. Super convenient to Blue Mosque Hagia Sophia and other attractions. Can walk almost anywhere we went. Varied, tasty and generous breakfast. Newer hotel for area. Clean and well maintained. Good value for cost. Highly recommend. Would stay again on next visit.

Centrally located

The rooms were excellent and pretty big. The bed was cozy and the wi-fi was fast and reliable. I parked my rental vehicle and did not have to use it since all of the attractions were within a 20-minute walk from the hotel. I would stay again.

Welcoming and friendly team

We had a lovely time at this place. It has a cozy environment, but most importantly the receptionist who's name was Eren was very patient, friendly and helpful with all our inquiries. Which is so important when you're in a new city. Also the lady who was working in the kitchen called Makbule, was very welcoming too and we had some delicious authentic Turkish breakfast. Overall definitely recommend this place.

Staff help and assistance jn providing various tour information are great. We stayed 4 nights. Although a few blocks away from Blue Mosque and all major attractions, walking to get there is not a good choice as sidewalks and pavements are not ADA-compliant as in the USA, there are no marked crosswalks and Stop signs for safe crossings of uphill streets. Regular shuttles by the hotels could be provided as an option for the elderly,

The Albinas Hotel Old City far exceeded our expectations!! From check-in to check-out we can’t fault anything. The room was exceptionally clean with all the typical amenities one would expect. The area around the hotel was extraordinary good for access to excellent food, shopping, and sites. We were even within 5-10 minute leisurely walks to several iconic Istanbul symbols like the exquisite Blue Mosque and the incredible Hagia Sofia! Also within walking distance was the immense Grand Bazaar. There was literally something excellent to experience in every direction we walked. As well we took a wonderful three hour Bosphorus Strait tour that was arranged through the hotel and we were picked up at the hotels front door in a bus and drove to the boat - then back. The breakfast in the spotless indoor terrace was fantastic with so many choices and there were a few new choices each day. The absolute highlight of the hotel were the incredible staff. Every one of them could not have been more friendly, kind, gracious, and above and beyond helpful. They all will be part of our perfect memories of this hotel and this amazing city! Special shout out to our new cat friend that greeted us on the steps of the hotel every morning.
