The staff who served us were very professional and friendly, making us feel right at home. The breakfast was delicious and with several options . The hotel is centrally located for walking to many famous sites, such as the Blue Mosque is a 5-minute walk away, Hagia Sophia and the Basilica Cistern are about a 10-minute walk away, and the Grand Bazaar is about a 20-minute walk away. We would definitely stay there again.

The location of the hotel is perfect, just a 5 minute walk from the blue mosque. The roof tip terrace is super nice. Staff is friendly and always ready to help. The rooms are a litttle bit outdated, but fulfilled its purpose. Breakfast buffet had lots of choices, many local dishes. We had a really good time.

The location is excellent with a short walk to Blue Mosque and Aya Sofia. The neighbourhood is relatively quiet for Istanbul and very convenient for public transport like taxi and tram. The breakfast is served on the top floor or on the terrace which was really nice on sunny mornings as it had a great view of local attractions. The bedding and linen were basic but clean, and considering the price to be expected.

The hotel is located only about six minutes walking distance to Sultanahmet Square. It has a wonderful breakfast buffet which is included in the room rate. The variety of the offerings was pleasantly surprising and super tasty. Also you can enjoy your breakfast on the terrace with the views of Sultanahmet Mosque on one side and Bosphorus on the other. The reception personnel was very helpful with our questions. The hotel is about 10 mins walking distance to the tram line through which you can reach to Eminonu (where spice bazaar / Egyptian Bazaar is) and Sirkeci district from which one can transfer to the ferry lines. Also the hotel is about 20 mins walking distance to the Grand Bazaar. When considering the price/value proposition, proximity to the attractions, well over average breakfast offering and to die for view of the terrace make this hotel a no brainer choice for us.

Had a lovely stay at Asmali hotel. Not the best looking places to stay, but had a greasy time. We booked the room for 3 people. Rooms were clean, bathroom was spotless. Rooms had cupboards, TV, AC and fridge. There was also a safe box. We had a small balcony, no view. They have a terrace, where you could relax, eat and see the Blue mosque from one side and sea from the other. Location was perfect, 5 min walk from the Blue mosque and 10 from the tram. Most things were local and in walking distance. The staff were super helpful and amazing.

- Air conditioner did not work. It was pretty warm in the room. They brought us a fan which did not help much. They should have changed our room. - Had problem going for breakfast as it was on the second floor. One of us has bad knee which made it pretty difficult for her.

We stayed for two nights at the hotel in the central Old Town, near the Blue Mosque. The location is very convenient. The staff were friendly and kindly allowed us to store our luggage on checkout day before our flight. We loved the buffet-style breakfast—it offered a wide variety of delicious vegetables, all cooked perfectly. The only minor issues were that the coffee machine was not working during our stay, so we had tea in the mornings, and the toilet was running and making loud noises, but it was fixed the next day.

La limpieza y la ubicación del hotel son perfectas. Lo único que no nos gustó fue nuestra habitación que realmente era muy pequeña; definitivamente no es para dos personas y le hace falta muebles, como una silla, una mesita de noche, ganchos y percheros, además la ropa de cama es muy vieja. El desayuno es muy bueno y variado. Al final quedamos contentos porque los chicos de la recepción siempre fueron muy amables, así como el resto de los empleados. Sí nos volveríamos a alojar allí pero pediríamos una mejor habitación.

Hello, The check in experience was mixed. The basement room I received & the photos hotel sent via Expediya wasnot the same. Plese check yourself now. Sorry for not completing the check in experience early because I was warned that an early feedback can put me in trouble. Why you Expedia guys are so lame & duff & asking early experience in a different country where I could be in a very serious trouble. Please wait till I return to UK. Absolutely nonsence.

Great staff, shame about the rooms.

What can i say ? I'll start with the positives first. The staff at the hotel are great and always there to help, quite a good location to visit the blue mosque and grand bazaar and other local tourist sites. The negatives no lifts so if you are elderly or have problems walking up the stairs stay away. I had room 303 with a broken toilet seat and a faulty flush. Beds are ok but not very comfy. Pillow cases were stained, lamp shade partially broken. There are currently road works outside the property and the entrance to the hotel is not great or safe to use. The breakfast is simple and ok. As for eating out around the hotel a few restaurants offer the same food with average 800 liras + drinks. For some reason i have pics but its not letting me upload the.
