Hotel Alilass is lovely and the staff are helpful. My room (single) was small but perfect for me as a solo traveller. The hotel was clean and well maintained. It is right in the heart of a very touristy area and the prices of restaurants etc nearby reflect this. I recommend this hotel.

Very nice hotel, centrally located, close to many of the most interesting places to visit. The Blue Mosque is a less than 10 minutes walk away and from there you can easily reach the Basilica Cistern, Hagia Sofía, the Grand Bazar or the Topkapi Palace. The room is a tad small but I was by myself so no problem there. I wouldn't give them five stars just because it lacks an elevator so it's not accessible for everyone. Other than that I had a very pleasant stay and would definitely recommend the Alilass Hotel.
