Beautiful old building, close to main visitor sites
Perfekt frukost, perfekt läge ca 250 m från Blå moskén

Super friendly and smiley staff, really made you feel welcome. Great 150 year old building and charming interior. Great breakfast.
Prachtig gerenoveerd oud pand. Kamer was ruim en met hoog plafond. Prima badkamer met bad. Zeer behulpzaam personeel.
Op kamer 204 hoor je de gasten op 304 boven je hoofd lopen. Daar beter tapijt leggen of isoleren. De lift werkte niet goed
Great location only a small walk to the blue Mosque The staff were great , reception very helpful with good advice. Breakfast was nice and at breakfast room beautiful. Loved our stay and Istanbul WOW
Not a dislike because you expect it in big cities, but the room was a bit on the tight side. But the Shower and Air con were great.
It was so convenient and everyone was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious

Tertemiz pırıl pırıl , dizaynı modern çok keyifli, kahvaltıları özenli çalışanlar süper … yine gelirsem yine kalırım Çok teşekkür ederiz
Quiet place on a busy street, it's easy to walk to many sites: the Blue Mosque, Ayasofia, Basilica Cisterns, and Museum of Turkish and Islamic Art.
Wonderful hospitality. All requests were catered for, which made our stay a lot easier and comfortable. Would highly recommend
It’s a very nice converted ottoman home very close to the great sites of the Sultanhamet neighborhood. The rooms are very small but the property itself is very well-maintained. The property is a little bit hard to get to because it’s up a series of very steep streets. Late at night, it gets very dark and a little bit desolate. The breakfast was really good in an open courtyard, which was really pretty.
Location to exploring old town and the tram was close to explore the whole city
Location, hospitality
The hotel is a few blocks from the Blue Mosque, and within walking distance of the bazaar, spice market, and all old town sites. The hotel is beautifully restored and decorated. My bathroom was modern and immaculate. The woodwork is gorgeous. Included breakfast was wonderful. The cost was less than half what we paid in Munich.
The four or five steps from street level to the ground floor level could be problematic for those who can't climb stairs. On the ground floor level is an elevator. There isn't anything that I disliked.
La posizione ideale per la visita della città, lo stile dell'albergo, la colazione ricchissima con prodotti tipici e proposte per tutti i gusti, la cortesia e professionalità del personale, la pulizia e i servizi dell'albergo, la puntualità del servizio navetta aeroportuale.
Per chi ha il sonno leggero, la preghiera mattutina del muezzin della vicina moschea può essere causa di risveglio forzato... ma viaggiando occorre adeguarsi agli usi locali!
Great location and decor was charming and comfortable. Staff very helpful
The room facing street was too noisy so got moved to the rear which was perfect
It’s such a gorgeous 150 year old hotel that has kept its historic charm, yet has all of the modern amenities. I felt very safe there & the breakfast was so delicious. The hotel management & desk staff looked after my every need. They were outstanding!
I liked everything.
Emplacement et vue sur la mer.
The location is amazing, quiet street but right in the heart of all the monuments you want to see, short walk to the Bazaar and so many restaurants at the doorstep
The staff was incredibly friendly, and the accommodation was wonderful overall. It's a small, cozy hotel with a great atmosphere, a delicious breakfast and an excellent location, situated right near multiple historic and tourist attractions.
The ground-floor location of our room meant we experienced more noise than expected. Sleep quality was affected by the mattress, which lacked support and had a small dip in the middle. We encountered an issue with the air conditioning failing one afternoon. Although the staff wasn't able to provide an immediate solution, they did get it working again.
Such a beautiful comfortable hotel. All the staff were warm and welcoming.
Mimo lokalizacji w ścisłym centrum w pokojach hotelowych jest cicho (nawoływania muezina są słyszalne w całym mieście, ale to tylko 5 minut). Hotel bardzo fajny, butikowy, wygodny.

Outstanding Ottoman restored building with real historic charm. Great location. Staff were very friendly. A special thanks to the Manager, Mürsel, whose hospitality and assistance was outstanding. Highly recommend.
It is located within walking distance of major tourist attractions. The hotel managers/receptionists were exceptional and willing to go above and beyond their duties. They even took me to a local barber shop for a shave!!
great location close to the centre of antiquities. Friendly and helpful staff, clean and tidy hotel. Highly recommended.
Nothing, all good.
Emplacement au top pour visiter le vieux Istanbul
Fenetres sur rue pas très bien insonorisées
Amazing location could not have been nearer to all the main attractions. Friendly happy staff. Decent breakfast in a lovely room with glass ceiling. Nice old building the room had lovely Turkish traditional feel we liked the furnishings. Good shower.
It was a bit noisy from the road outside. TV didn’t work. Limited working plug sockets only 2 worked. Hair dryer useless bring your own.
Beautifully restored mansion and steps away from the Blue Mosque is exceptional.
Nothing.
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The design is very stylish, and everything was impeccably clean throughout. Our room had a beautiful sea view, which made the experience even more special. The breakfast buffet was rich and offered a great variety of options. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help. The location is also excellent, making it easy to explore the area. Highly recommended!
Welcoming environment, kind welcoming staff, fabulous location, secure and top notch breakfast. Beautiful old mansion.
Celine is a unique and beautiful historical building in perfect location: right next to the main city attractions, yet quiet. Thanks a lot to the hotel staff, they were very friendly and helpful! They paid attention to my request and gave us a room with bathtub. The room itself was not big, but just enough for two of us, it also had local touch, a nice balcony, and some see view :) Overall we enjoyed the stay very much!
Bad coffee at breakfast and in the room. Please consider putting normal coffee machine at breakfast
Excellent central location - extremely helpful and welcoming staff - lovely clean room- nicely furnished
Good location a couple of mins walk to the forum and all the main attractions. V comfortable bed, although the room was a bit small for the a one up from than non standard room. Very clean, good breakfast with a lot of variety. Reception staff friendly and helpful.
Coffee machine at breakfast, dreadful.
Excelente ubicación.
Dormitorio y baño algo pequeños. Desayuno, poca variedad
This hotel is set in an old Ottoman house, with beautiful decoration. We had a great view over the Sea of Marmara, and the breakfast was great. Our hosts were helpful, and arranged a shuttle for us to the airport. The location is great - close to the Blue Mosque and to the Grand Bazaar. Would recommend.
Ascensor, staff, sala de desayunos, restauracion excellente de finca regia y conversión de mansion uni-familiar en hotel con encanto!
Nada, estamos totalmente a gusto.
Lo mejor la ubicación y el desayuno.
El ruido de alguna máquina que se encendía por la noche y resultaba bastante molesta.
It was close to city and the room was very clean
The bed wasn’t great as we kept rolling in the middle
Beautiful old school property. Excellent location. Friendly staff.
Limited breakfast choice. A few room malfunctions- light fridge - though dealt with when raised. Bed covers not wide enough for emperor size bed.
Location was perfect, staff very helpful and friendly. Room was spacious with a great view and cleaned every day. Hotel was beautiful and very clean. Breakfast was very nice. Would recommend this hotel.
It is a traditional old hotel so the windows are original (I think) so it did not drown out the noise but it didn't affect our stay.
Die Lage des Hotels ist unschlagbar: die meisten Sehenswürdigkeiten von Istanbul sind fußläufig erreichbar. Das Zimmer ist klimatisiert, geräumig, hell und hat alles, was man sich an Ausstattung eines Hotelzimmers wünscht. Das Bad ist groß genug, mit Badewanne. Das Frühstücksmenü ist vielfältig und reichhaltig. Der Frühstücksraum ist schön und gemütlich. Das Personal ist äußerst nett und rund um die Uhr hilfsbereit. Alle Mitarbeiter sprechen mehrere Sprachen, sind sehr höflich und zuverlässig. Unser besonderer Dank und die besten Grüße an sehr gut Deutsch sprechenden Herrn Can.
Местоположение, чистота в номере, уборка каждый день, удобная большая и чистая кровать, хороший напор горячей воды. Приветливый персонал: мы приехали в 8 утра, нас сразу заселили и предложили бесплатный завтрак, это было очень кстати после ночного перелета, спасибо!
Завтрак вкусный, но мог быть более разнообразным, довольно скудный выбор, который не меняется и быстро надоедает
Der frühe Check-in war nach unserem sehr langen 11-stündigen Flug besonders angenehm. Wir wurden äußerst freundlich und zuvorkommend empfangen. Besonders positiv überrascht hat uns, dass wir sogar ein Frühstück erhalten haben, obwohl es uns eigentlich nicht zugestanden hätte – eine wirklich außergewöhnlich nette Geste. Das gesamte Personal war während unseres Aufenthalts stets sehr freundlich, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit. Insgesamt war unser Aufenthalt einfach top. Dieses Hotel können wir definitiv weiterempfehlen. ⭐
The kindness of the man in reception. Had problems with my tv and he changed it in a few minutes. Thank you!
Perfectly located with beautiful architecture. Spacious and comfortable rooms. A very nice restaurant with breakfast options to suit everyone. Extremely helpful management and staff.
Amplasarea este foarte comodă, toate obiectele turistice sunt aproape, la citeva minute distanță. Personalul hotelului ft amabil, micul dejun era divers.
La momentul bronarii nu era clar care tip camera rezervăm, la fața locului am primit o cameră cu ieșire la terasă unde se lua micul dejun și era destul de gălăgios din cauza la aparatele de aer condiționat probabil.

何よりもスタッフの方々がとても温かく、優しく、本当に素敵なホテルでした!最初に1泊したあと2日後にまた戻ってきてさらに2泊したのですが、私たちはもう家族だよ!おかえり!と言ってくれました😂 部屋は天井が高くて、とても清潔でインテリアもおしゃれでした。ホテル全体がお花のいい香りがします。 朝食会場も天窓の開放感あるカフェで、毎日少しずつ違うビュッフェスタイルでおいしかったです。 アヤソフィアやトプカプ宮殿にも徒歩で行ける距離で、トラムT1のSultanahmetとÇemberlitaşの間くらいなので諸々のアクセスも良いです。 またイスタンブールに滞在する際はここに泊まりたいと思います!素敵なおもてなしを本当にありがとうございました😊
Tout, le personnage, le manager, l'emplacement, le breakfast. J'y retournerai lorsque je reviendrai

Beautifully maintened. Helpful and kind staff and delicious breakfast. Location is unbeatable!
Die Lage des Hotels ist top, die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten wie Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palast und Basilika-Zisterne (!) sind zu Fuß erreichbar. Der Frühstücksraum befindet sich im verglasten Innenhof und ist sehr schön ausgestattet. Trotz der zentralen Lage ist es abends ruhig und man kann sehr gut schlafen. Das Personal ist ausgesprochen nett und hilfsbereit.
Muy bien situado, personal muy amable.
No tuvimos TV durante toda la estancia
L’emplacement - la propreté - le petit déjeuner - le personnel très sympathique Tout était très bien

Gefallen hat uns die Freundlichkeit der Mitarbeiter der Rezeption, Frühstück u. Reinigungskräfte. Alle miteinander sorgen dafür einen angenehmen Aufenthalt zu haben. Die Herren der Rezeption sind für alle Fragen da und punkten durch kompetente Antworten. Die Kommunikation auf englischer Sprache war perfekt. Çan von der Rezeption spricht zudem sehr gut deutsch. Die Hauptsehenswürdigkeiten wie die Sultanhamet Moschee, Topkapi Palast, Hagia Sofia, Basilica Zisterne binnen 5-10 Min. Fußweg gut erreichbar. Restaurants und Supermärkte und Apotheken in 2-5 Min. erreichbar. Die Einkaufsstraße ist mit Eingang zum großen Basar in ca. 10-15 Minuten Fußweg erreichbar. Das Frühstück im Hotel ist gut.
Die Hellhörigkeit war oft doof, was aber an der Rücksichtslosigkeit anderer Gäste lag. Ursprünglich hatten wir eine andere Zimmerkategorie gebucht, die aber zur Straße hin lag. Auf dieser Straße ist aber starker Verkehr sodass, selbst bei geschlossenen Fenstern, an erholsamen Schlaf nicht zu denken war. Wir baten um ein anderes Zimmer, eines nach hinten raus, welches wir auch ab der 2. Nacht bekommen haben. Unser Ausblick vom Zimmer 302 war gigantisch schön. Die Sonnenauf- und Untergänge einfach traumschön mit Blick auf die Fährhafeneinfahrt. Es wäre schön wenn ebenerdige Dusche eingebaut erden würden in den Bädern. Diese sind noch mit hohen Badewannen ausgestattet. Der Ein-und Ausstieg schon recht unbequem. Die Bettlaken sind passend für das Bett, verabschiedeten sich aber nach einer Drehung im Bett bei mir 😀 Betten als solches waren bequem, mit Ohrstöpseln ( wegen der Hellhörigkeit und dem scheinbaren Wrestling im Zimmer über uns )und geöffnetem Fenster war der erholsamer Schlaf möglich.
Great location, walking distance to all local attractions. Few minutes walk to the square and mosques. Room was clean, good facilities, with mini fridge, kettle (tea, coffee), toiletries. Shower was powerful, hot water. Breakfast was great, good selection and omelettes included. Map provided on check-in with information.
El desayuno es muy bueno

This hotel is very well located and within easy walking distance of the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, The Grand Bazzar and the harbour. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It is an older hotel that has been restored some years ago, the rooms are not big but adequate and the beds are very comfortable. Breakfast was included in our rate and it is in a really lovely courtyard with a glass roof, the food offering is very nice and they make great omelets to order. The WiFi worked well.
The TV really did not work very well, there were no English channels and while we were advised you had to go via You Tube it never connected due to poor internet connection, at least that is what the message on the screen said.
A személyzet rendkívül kedves és segítőkész. Szobánk tiszta és mindennel felszerelt volt. A reggeli svédasztalos volt, finom ételekkel, teljesen megfelelt az igényeinknek. A szálloda közelében villamos megálló, gyalog megközelíthető több nevezetesség, a bazár, valamint a kikötő is. Nagyon elégedettek voltunk.
A szagelszívó hangja zavaró volt éjjel. Akkor is ment amikor nem mi használtuk a fürdőszobát. Jeleztük a recepción, de sajnos nem szűnt meg. Valamint a szúnyogok. Ezekkel együtt is elégedettek voltunk.
Localização excelente.
. O café da manhã básico e o chuveiro não funcionou corretamente.
Posizione centralissima, colazione abbondante e buona, letto comodo
Great location 5 mins from Blue Mosque. Attractive and clean rooms with very comfortable beds. Very boutique feel.
Breakfast started late at 8am. You had to pay for decent coffee which really should have been included. As shojld have been an omelette of similar. But the breakfast selection itself had a good choice with lovely fresh food. Our room has a small balcony and more could have been made of that.
Served a wonderful breakfast;very diverse, mixing european with turkish food. Plentiful and delicious. Very close to all the main Istanbul attractions and lots of restaurants around
Really enjoyed the stay and would go back.
Everything. You literally can’t go wrong with Celine Hotel. One of the most reliable, comforting, nurturing, and wholesome hotels I’ve ever been to. I come from a culture that values hospitality a lot, and Celine Hotel takes the cake for it. This was my 6th stay at this hotel, and I will definitely come here again. The location, staff, responsiveness, and breakfast are all worth mentioning. Considering how popular Istanbul’s become as a tourist destination, its quite lovely how quaint this particular nook in Sultanahmet becomes post 6 pm (once all the tourists groups leave), definitely the right setting to get lost in time. And this hotel fits right into that theme. All in all, must recommend. I came with my three little sisters for a sisters’ trip, and we felt extremely safe and well taken care of under Celine Hotel’s care.
Literally nothing.
The location was perfect for the tourist sites and not far from public transport to explore other areas. The breakfast was good and varied but always the same. The room was comfortable, very quiet and had a lovely view.
There wasnt a bar where we could have a coffee when we were waiting for our taxi to leave.
Location was close to Blue mosque, Hagia Sofia and tram, place was clean.
Breakfast was nothing special- cereal, yoghurt, cookies- olives, processed cold cuts- would love to have more variety like scrambled eggs and toast or some protein that that wasn't too sweet.
Gorgeous, nice amenities, convenient location, elevator, good breakfast with lovely restaurant, nice staff
Great location and good and clean rooms
They do not do housekeeping post 200 pm but ok to provide clean towels Water bottle - provide only 2 bottles
Top Lage, sehr freundliches Perp
Lage und Preis-Leistung, schöner überdachter Frühstücks-Innenhof. Hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter am Empfang.
La ubicación excelente
Cercanía a una mezquita y a las 5 am te despierta el rezo
Close to everything Breakfast was great and included Staff very helpful
J'ai adoré l'emplacement,le personnel la taille de la chambre et ses équipements tout était parfait
Le lit n'est pas confortable j'ai eu mal au dos et du mal a dormir dedans
The hotel has recently been refurbished in keeping with its 100+ year heritage. Its Location very central. The garden space is also great for breakfast and coffee. The staff were also very helpful.
Unfortunately the hotel is not licensed to sell alcohol. A cold beer in the garden space would have been an ideal way to start/end an evening.
