Good location for a first visit to Istanbul

We had a very nice stay, perfect location as the main touristic attractions are at a walking distance, yet very quiet to sleep. To find Trendy restaurants and nightlife you should go to other neighbourhoods, all reachable with public transportations.

Emel

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
The lobby of the hotel is beautiful, I am not sure if it was the room I stayed, but both cleanness and construction were ver poor. Walls were w/ significant cracks, in the bathroom it was the worst. Room I stayed w/ significant dust, especially front of the windows where the beds are located. Cleanness usually is a good trait of people in Turkey, I was surprised this poor cleanness in the room. Staff is kind, breakfast is good. They have to take care of the rooms like the way they do the hotel lobby. I would not chose this hotel again.

This was our second stay here. The location is perfect and the staff are very friendly. The breakfast is great as well. If you have elderly persons or persons with mobility issues the walk up the hill to the blue mosque may not be for them but if not you are there in under 10 minutes with easy access to the main transportation links including the hop on hop off bus.

Both hosts Irfan and Ismael were super nice, helpful and true gentlemen. Its a beautiful little hotel located in the heart of SultanAhmet district where all big istanbul attractions are at walking distances and probably 50 restaurants at 1 to 10 mins walk. Their breakfasts were pretty decent with a beautiful views looking at the ocean from their terrace.
