It felt absolutely truthful. Excellent value! Food was fresh and tasty. Rooftop terrace a beautiful bonus. I got soft pillows when I commented that they are a bit hard. The bathroom was superclean (new) and not smelling, as I experience in other hotels here. Location for my taste was perfect! No street noise, rooftopventilation or other hotelstuff talking on the street. I absolutely enjoyed my stay at this lovely authentic hotel.

I had an excellent stay at Hotel Saruhan in Istanbul. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the staff went above and beyond—especially in arranging a fantastic cruise trip. The terrace breakfast was a highlight, with delicious options and stunning views of the city and sea. Perfect location near major attractions and truly outstanding service. Highly recommended!

The included buffet breakfast in the rooftop terrace was amazing! We especially loved the beet and yogurt salad (just try it!) and the carrot, cabbage and dill salad. Not normally something we'd eat for breakfast but the food and experience was spectacular!! The rooms had a beautiful Turkish feel and look. We enjoyed our cozy room and bed and the service throughout was fantastic 😀

Don’t let this little older hotel put you off, it is a gem. The rooms, though older, are spacious and spotless. The staff were amazing the whole stay. You can beat the breakfast, the woman that puts it out works very hard to ensure all leave full. A bonus is the coffee and tea they provide in the breakfast room anytime of day. Would definitely stay there again.

The perfect Istanbul hotel--loved it, will return

Saruhan Hotel is charming, friendly, very comfiortable, with real local character. The roof terrace is gorgeous, the breakfast (on terrace) is splendid. Our room with park/sea view was perfect. Historic sites are a comfortable walking distance, and local eating is good (with hotel's advice). We will definitely stay again on our next trip.

Coffee is available until 11 pm. The staff lady in the kitchen is super sweet and helpful. Rooms are very clean. The hotel face may need a touch up.
