The Pell Palace is a wonderful boutique hotel. The staff are exceptionally welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. During our stay, they accomodated our early morning arrival and our early morning departure. The cafe on site is a nice place to sit and enjoy a coffee, tea or local beer. A transit stop is nearby and there is small grocery store nearby as well. Plenty of dining options and walkable to the Blue Mosque and surrounding area although I recommend taking the light rail back.

Disliked: Amenities
While the tram is nearby, the neighbourhood shops are worn out, trading shops. Vehicles cannot access the narrow street between 10am to 6pm. We were dropped off far from the hotel and had to carry our luggages uphill to reach the hotel. The staff are commendable, very helpful with street directions.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pell Palace is located central. When booking the hotel I was debating between close to the grand bazaar or Arasta Bazaar. Arasta is more of a western district and closer to the airport shuttle. The grand bazaar is really grand so I picked grand bazaar. But Istanbul center is pretty small so either locations are great. There were three of us and I wanted a Bigger space with a balcony. I realize quickly that it’s too hot in the summer to take advantage of the balcony. My wife likes the breakfast but it’s mainly vegetarian. Overall we enjoyed the hotel. One thing that was not the fault of the hotel is there was a family on our floor that was really noisy at nught
