This was a strong 3star hotel and exactly as described. Perfect location for the attractions and we were able to walk to them and save travel costs. Owner was lovely and lent me a charger for my stay as mine broke, and everyone was smiles Top tip. Don't use the room service/order in. It's not the hotel it's local eateries but it was pretty dire.

Okay, here's a hotel review you can use: My recent stay at Sultan Place in Istanbul was absolutely delightful. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I was greeted with warmth and efficiency. The staff were incredibly attentive, always ready to assist with a smile. My room was beautifully appointed, offering stunning views of the city. It was spotlessly clean and equipped with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. The hotel's location was perfect for exploring Istanbul's rich history and vibrant culture. I found myself just a short walk away from iconic landmarks such as the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. After a day of sightseeing, I looked forward to returning to the hotel to unwind. What truly set this hotel apart was the exceptional service. Every member of the staff went above and beyond to ensure my stay was memorable. I highly recommend sultan place to anyone visiting Istanbul. Aarff that’s working in the front desk is really a great guy always have a smile and always willing to help with any questions love him so much for this kind words and beautiful smile

2泊滞在しました。1人旅で豪華なホテルや食事にお金を使うより、歴史的観光にお金を使いたいと思っていたので、ホテルの料金はリーズナブルで決めました。お部屋の広さは1人でも十分すぎる広さでした。2泊でしたが、シーツ交換をしてくれて、バスタオルが巨大サイズでした。他の方の口コミのように浴室は窓が一つでやや古い印象、私の部屋のドライヤーは使えませんでしたが、普通にお風呂が使えたら十分です。 ホテルの場所は空港バスのhavist11の乗り場から近いので、空港からの交通も便利だと思います。また、場所も静かな場所だったため私にはちょうどよかったです。 モスクがホテルの隣にあり、朝のアザーン？お祈りの声は控えめで、起きませんでした。 ホテルの方は英語、トルコ語ができない私に優しく接してくださり、オーナーさん（若い方）日本語ができる方で帰る前に話をしました。 初めての海外で、1人旅。いい思い出になりました。
