Sehr freundliches und aufmerksames Personal an der Rezeption und im Restaurant.
Die Lage ist zwar zentral, aber das Hotel befindet sich an einer extrem verkehrsreichen engen Straße. Tagsüber, mit Ausnahme der Wochenenden, hat man durchgehend einen Stau vor dem Hotel und alle Wege zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten führen an diesem vorbei. Da die Bürgersteige klein sind oder nicht existieren, muss man Slalom um die Autos gehen. Das Hotel liegt außerdem am fast tiefsten Punkt der Altstadt, so dass alle Wege zu Fuß den Berg hochgehen.
Fabulous location, wonderful breakfast and the staff went above and beyond. Nothing was too much trouble. We needed a doctor and the front desk had one organised almost immediately to come to the hotel. The bell captain was so helpful as were all the staff particularly the front desk staff. We loved the hotel and loved the rooms and the location was such a close walk to all the major sites. Rooms had a great coffee machine and water was replenished daily. Rooms were also very quiet and well appointed. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a luxurious and happy stay in Istanbul.
There was nothing that needed improving.
We were greeted and offered an arrival drink which was greatly appreciated. The check in process was completed while we were resting, we were the escorted and show our room. Our bags followed an extra bag rack was supplied to assist during our stay. The concierge went above and beyond to make our stay one of our best during this trip.

Breakfast was superb! The staff were some of the best hotel staff I have experienced- nothing was too much trouble! The bell captain was exceptional as were the reception staff!
There was nothing that needed improvement
Great place to stay
Nothing all great
Totul a fost la superlativ. Hotelul este elegant, impecabil, micul dejun excelent, iar locația foarte bună. Întregul personal a fost deosebit de amabil, atent și profesionist, în special echipa de la recepție și Bell Captain, care ne-au făcut să ne simțim cu adevărat bineveniți. O experiență excelentă, cu servicii de 5 stele.
Nu am nimic de menționat. Totul a fost excelent.
Doorbell staff is great!

Das orientalische Flair und die besondere Freundlichkeit des Personals. Hervorzuheben sind Leyla vom Housekeeping und Maria vom Concierge Team. Der Bellcaptain und das Bellteam kümmern sich persönlich um alle Angelegenheiten. Das Personal im Restaurant ist so zuvorkommend.
We had the most amazing stay at AJWA Sultanahmet. The staff were absolutely beautiful across the whole property. Gorgeous design perfect for Istanbul vibe, walking distance to shops, attractions and great restaurants! Special mention to Hasan who welcomed us and looked after everything we needed through our whole stay. Just wished we had more time. Highly recommend++
We had an exceptional stay at AJWA Sultanahmet. From the moment we arrived until the day we checked out, every member of the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. The hotel is beautiful, impeccably clean, and perfectly located for exploring Istanbul. A special thank you to the Guest Relations Captain and the Bell Team for their outstanding service. They were professional, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. Their kindness and hospitality truly made our stay even more enjoyable. The rooms were elegant and comfortable, the breakfast was excellent, and every detail reflected the hotel's commitment to providing a luxury experience. We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend AJWA Sultanahmet to anyone visiting Istanbul. Thank you for making our trip so memorable!

Un soggiorno davvero eccellente all’AJWA Hotel Sultanahmet. L’hotel è bellissimo, elegante, curato in ogni dettaglio e offre un livello di ospitalità davvero notevole. Un ringraziamento particolare va al Bell Captain e a tutto il Bell Team, che si sono distinti per una gentilezza, disponibilità e professionalità eccezionali. Sempre sorridenti, attenti e pronti ad aiutare in qualsiasi momento, ci hanno fatto sentire accolti e coccolati fin dal nostro arrivo. Sono proprio queste attenzioni a fare la differenza e a rendere un soggiorno davvero speciale. Servizio impeccabile e personale straordinario. Torneremmo sicuramente all’AJWA Hotel e lo consigliamo senza esitazione a chi visita Istanbul!
Hotel atmosphere, quality of furniture, interior. One of the best buildings in the area. Friendly staff. Close to the historical center 15 min walk.
There is no window in the room (family room), only an artificial window. I suppose this must be mentioned in the description because it’s a significant factor. Breakfast can be more varied for this money, like meat, ham, or salmon on side; cheap sausages are not good.
Complimenti al nostro assistente BELLCOPTOIN E AL SUO TEAM BELLTEAM ci hanno assistito al meglio in ogni situazione super!!!!
Had a wonderful experience at the AJWA Sultanahamet hotel. The staff were so helpful and proactive in assisting any query you may have. A special mention for the Bellhop team who happily assisted my mother with her wheelchair needs (wheelchair provided by the hotel). While the property is not far from central tourist spots it is in a congested area with a few slopes to contend with. When available, the hotel provides complimentary drop off to city centre points. While you don’t book a holiday to stay in a hotel, the interior was sumptuous and very clean. No trouble with the room facilities - air con, WiFi, etc all worked well. If there were any queries a quick call To reception and someone would be at your door within 5 mins. The rooms also have a pillow menu including an orthopaedic option. Beds weee very comfortable. We dined at the restaurant one evening which was lovely and it’s the same space where they serve breakfast- beautiful views. Breakfast was excellent with a very good variety of options this includes table service for tea/coffee and any hot eggs made to order. Unfortunately I didn’t get time to sample the beautiful spa. Enjoyed everything about this hotel but the best aspect is the staff - they were brilliant! Thank you to the team for making our stay sooo enjoyable!!
Can’t think of anything
O estilo de ambientação do Hotel, retratando a época do Sultanato, o café da manhã e a equipe de atendimento são excelentes.
Horários separados entre homens e mulheres para frequentar os espaços fitness; os quartos não têm boa vista, pois o hotel é baixo. Os principais centros turísticos não são facilmente acessados por caminhada.

Exceptional service and attention to detail. Breakfast was also exceptional Hotel location was excellent...close to most everything I wanted to see & do. Bell captain was especially appreciative of everything and made us feel welcome
Bed was too hard for me. I normally need something that is similar to the Heavenly Bed at Westin. Not enough pillows & towels either
Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel und können es weiterempfehlen. Besonders positiv hervorzuheben sind die exklusiven Spa- und Gym-Zeiten für Frauen, die eine sehr angenehme und private Atmosphäre schaffen. Das Spa war sehr sauber und gepflegt. Wir waren begeistert und konnten die Ruhe dort wunderbar geniessen. Als muslimisches Hotel im osmanischen Stil und ohne Alkoholservice bietet das Hotel ein sehr entspanntes, respektvolles und familienfreundliches Umfeld. Man fühlt sich von Anfang an sehr wohl und gut aufgehoben. Ein ganz besonderes Lob gilt dem aussergewöhnlich aufmerksamen, herzlichen und freundlichen Service. Wir bedanken uns ganz herzlich bei Herrn Gökhan, Hasan und Frau Tuba für ihre tolle Gastfreundschaft und Hilfsbereitschaft. Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit und die herzliche Betreuung. Wir kommen gerne wieder und können dieses Hotel weiterempfehlen!
Einige Punkte könnten jedoch verbessert werden: Das Zimmer Nr. 202 mit dem angeblichen Gartenblick entsprach leider nicht ganz unseren Erwartungen. Auch das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt aus unserer Sicht nicht ganz überein. Die Anreise mit grossem Gepäck und den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln kann aufgrund der sehr steilen Strassen zum Hotel eine Herausforderung sein. Wir empfehlen, die Anfahrt vorab genau zu prüfen und gegebenenfalls einen Transfer zu organisieren. Auch bei Taxis ist Vorsicht geboten. Daher empfiehlt es sich, die Organisation eines Taxis dem Hotel zu überlassen. Das Housekeeping könnte ebenfalls aufmerksamer sein. Insgesamt ist das Hotel schön, aber bei diesen Punkten besteht noch Verbesserungspotenzial.
Great room and bathroom, excellent value for a top class 5 star hotel. The staff were all exceptionally helpful and polite, particularly Niyazi OK on reception. The location is also very good and a short walk to all the major sights in the old City. The restaurant is also very high quality with a terrific breakfast.
There are single sex times only for the spa and gym with the day divided in two. The hotel is also alcohol free but there a large number of local bars and restaurants.
Beautiful sanctuary
This was without a doubt one of the most enjoyable stays I have had. The location is excellent and central to most tourist attractions. Istanbul is quite hilly so if you’re going to mostly walk then this is ideal. The hotel itself is a step above the rest. From the decor to the ambience to the room itself there was nothing to critique as the attention to detail and beauty surpassed expectations. But any holiday is judged not only on the accomodation but the people and in this I have rarely come across the level of hospitality as provided by staff here. The warmest greeting on arrival, delicious sherbet and having our room already ready was a bonus after a long flight. The breakfast is lovely serving a more traditional fare and the gentleman in charge in the mornings ( sorry I forgot his name) was so warm and helpful. Special mention must go to the Bell Captain Aytec and his bell team. They were always quick with a warm smile and greeting, helpful with directions and are a credit to the hotel. The small gesture of a present as we were leaving was unexpected but it goes to show how much the entire staff make you feel like family when you are there. I really didn’t want to hand in our keys and checkout - definitely the only place I’ll be staying in Istanbul when I come back!
Micul dejun a fost bun, diversificat si un pesonal gata sa-ti satisfaca toate dorintele. Am stat intr-o suita pe colt cu vedere la mare si au fost foarte frumoase atat camera cat si vederea spre mare. Personalul atent si gata sa te ajute cu orice ai nevoie.
Mancarea de la restaurant ar trebui putin mai diversificata si poate sa includa si preparate turcesti.
Excellent service throughout - bell boys, reception, F&B, concierge. Really nice and friendly, great location, amazing rooms.
Only issue, although clearly stated from the beginning, is that couples cannot use the pool at the same time (gents in the morning, ladies in the afternoon) and there is no alcohol served due to halal tradition. All these though are very small compromises for staying at a really good and welcoming property.
J'ai passé un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel. La chambre était spacieuse, propre et très confortable. Le personnel est très sympathique et toujours prêt à aider si vous en avez besoin. Un grand merci à la Bell team et à son captain qui ont rendu mon séjour particulièrement agréable. L'hôtel est également très bien situé pour visiter à pieds de nombreuses attractions touristiques. Je recommande !
We absolutely loved our stay! The hotel is beautiful, the rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent with amazing views. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, and the location was perfect for exploring Istanbul on foot. We would definitely come back!
Nothing.
Very luxurious and a historical place. Love the service and location is close to the grand bazaar and tourist attractions.
Slightly less options at breakfast
Great Service. Great location
Very central and close to all attractions

Excelent location and friendly and helpful staff, in particular the Bell Captain and Bell team were very good and expectionally helpful
apart from TV channel malfunction otherwise nothing
Struttura incantevole completamente in marmo. Personale gentilissimo e discreto. Ottima colazione. BellCaptain and Bellteam perfect!
Orari spa differenti tra donne e uomini, difficile gestione per una famiglia.
Beautiful hotel with stunning architecture both in and outside of the hotel. Lovely king size bed with superb linen. Breakfast was substantial and varied
Nothing
La posizione è ottima per scoprire Istanbul. La colazione è eccellente.
L'acqua della piscina è ghiacciata ed il servizio minibar in camera da migliorare (bicchieri sporchi non sostituiti, dimenticanze varie). Si tratta di un hotel che rispetta le regole della religione musulmana per cui l'accesso in piscina è consentito al mattino solo x uomini, al pomeriggio solo x donne. Onestamente proporrei orari invertiti a giorni alterni. Questo è un aspetto non evidente in fase di prenotazione.
Das Personal, insbesondere Rezeption und Concierge, waren herausragend.
Exceptional property. Wonderful location. Staff exceptional. Bedrooms were very nice however a little dark. I did not think the breakfast was exceptional by any means. No sourdough. Croissants etc seemed to be made with margarine or something as they were not good at all. Breakfast could improve a lot as the property is genuinely lovely. The pool is not great. Small and women and men each have different time slots and it’s indoors and very dark. Just didn’t think it was a nice pool and almost pointless.
Breakfast and pool
The service was excellent The staff were friendly and always ready to help The Bell Captain (Aytac) and Bell Team were exceptional! :)
Not enough windows/lighting in the rooms - felt very enclosed

The attention to detail in the hotel was excellent. The customer service from the bell captain and the bell team was 5 Stars! They looked after our every need and when we needed to change the configuration of the room they accommodated us without any fuss and the upmost professionalism. Thank you so much for our memorable stay in your beautiful city.
Nothing!
Bardzo wysoki standard hotelu. Piękne wnętrza, wspaniały widok z pokoju. Bardzo wysoki poziom obsługi. Ze śniadań nie korzystaliśmy, ale tuż obok hotelu jest bardzo dużo knajpek, gdzie można zjeść za nieduże pieniądze. Świetna lokalizacja - dosłownie 10-15 minut spacerem od Błękitnego Meczetu.
Rozczarowaniem był brak możliwości skorzystania z basenu wspólnie z mężem. W hotelu obowiązuje ścisły podział na czas w SPA dla pań (15.00-22.00) oraz panów (8.00-15.00) co było bardzo niewygodne jeśli planuje się wspólne spędzanie czasu w ciągu dnia. W rezultacie podczas 3-dniowego pobytu skorzystaliśmy z basenu tylko po 1 razie. Możliwość wspólnej kąpieli w basenie jest możliwa tylko od 22.00 do 24.00 za opłatą 190 euro (sic!).

Il connubio perfetto tra antico e moderno
Purtroppo l’hammam ha orari diversi per uomini e donne,ma questo è comprensibile in quanto è una regola islamica
El edificio, el mobiliario, las instalaciones, el desayuno, el trato
Por poner una pega era dificil el acceso al baño, una persona mayor tendria problemas pues estaba muy alto
No indica que las instalaciones no se comparten en familia. Las mujeres tienen horarios diferentes a los de los hombres. Realmente pague un precio increíblemente excesivo para lo que me brindaron en cuanto al servicio. Muy decepcionada. Deberían indicar esto!!
The hotel was absolutely amazing: the stuff, the room, the restaurant Zeferan.... and the views, spectacular!
We would have liked to have stayed more!
Great location, walking distance to Blue Mosque and TopKpapi palace, great helpful personal, great concierge service who go us great recommendations for the day and tours. Breakfast was nice and plenty - nothing missing, rooms smaller than expected but super beautiful and comfortable
Beautiful, clean and exceptional.
There was nothing to dislike.
Excellent breakfast in a beautifull top floor restaurant with fantastic view, delicious food selection, fresh juices, cheeses, fruits. We had a lovely and very spacious room on 7th with big elegant marble tail bathroom with bathtube I would soke in forever, the bad was super comfortable!. Impeccable cleanliness and very cortuous and helpful staff ready to arrange everything for you. Very nice swimming pool ( and yes, the only drawback is the division of man and wemen so you cannot enjoy it during the day together) The whole place is fool of beautiful ferniture and decors in the ottoman style. True masterpieces you can admire and have them in your room! The location is within the walking distance to Hippodrome and all restaurant, shops and bars we can wish for. We would surely recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to relax in comforting ambient and pleasure to engulf in the ottoman style and culture interior. Truly memorable expierice! Would surely come back again!
Maybe some 2-3h during the day for both women and men ( like couples) to enjoy together the swimmingpool would be great!
Our stay at Ajwa Sultanahmet was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived until the day we checked out, every aspect of our experience exceeded our expectations. This is truly what a genuine five-star hotel should be. The rooms were immaculate, beautifully designed, spacious, and exceptionally comfortable. Every detail reflected elegance and quality. The housekeeping staff kept everything in pristine condition throughout our stay. The service was simply outstanding. Every member of the staff was warm, professional, attentive, and genuinely eager to make our stay unforgettable. The concierge was incredibly helpful with recommendations and arranging transportation, while the restaurant staff provided impeccable service with delicious food every time. A special thank you goes to the Bell Captain and his entire team. They are absolutely fantastic and truly set the standard for hospitality. Their professionalism, kindness, efficiency, and willingness to go above and beyond made us feel welcomed from the very first moment. They consistently anticipated our needs and treated us like valued guests rather than just visitors. They are a tremendous asset to the hotel. The hotel's cleanliness, amenities, atmosphere, and attention to detail were exceptional. The location is perfect for exploring the historic heart of Istanbul while still providing a peaceful and luxurious retreat. Without hesitation, I can say that Ajwa Sultanahmet is one of the finest hotels I have ever stayed at. Every category of our stay was exceptional, and the entire team delivered a level of hospitality that is difficult to match. We will absolutely return on our next visit to Istanbul and recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a truly world-class experience.
In all honesty, everything was perfect!

Очень красивый отель! Замечательный персонал))) ресторан самый лучший в Стамбуле ( на наш вкус). Очень удобное расположение. До всего близко, но при этом не шумно.
It was located in the old part of Istanbul walking distance from the tourist attractions and the Grand Bizarre.
There is no alcohol served in this hotel.
Interior very comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. Breakfast amazing, staff 10/10. Special thanks to Bell captain and bell team

Very nice hotel and good service from Hasan ozbek very nice person.
Beautiful hotel, incredibly helpful staff. Roof top restaurant has a beautiful view and great food.
While the location is conveniently close to all major locations the street is really busy and has horrible traffic. So if you take a cab you will be in it for a while and depending where you going you could walk faster. There are no side walks and we found ourselves walking on the side of the road.
The hospitality and care is second to none.
Excellent upkeep and staff. Great breakfast. Most important thing: it. Was. Clean.
Located in a very hilly area of sultanamet. Makes it difficult if you have mobility issues or are a wheelchair user.
Clean and tidy hotel with professional, helpful and friendly staff. All teams were brilliant and always there to help and support you.
A truly wonderful hotel in the heart of historic Istanbul! AJWA Sultanahmet left us with the warmest and most unforgettable impressions. The location is simply perfect: all the main attractions are nearby, while the hotel itself feels like a separate world of calm, beauty, and oriental elegance. The interior deserves special praise — historic, luxurious, atmospheric, and full of beautiful details. The staff were exceptionally friendly, attentive, and professional. From the very first moment, we felt genuinely welcome. The breakfasts were absolutely fantastic: everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully served. And six kinds of freshly squeezed juices — simply amazing! A very special thanks and respect to the wonderful Mari for organizing an excellent Bosphorus tour for us. Everything was arranged perfectly, with care and great taste. Thanks to her, our stay became even more memorable. We would be very happy to return and sincerely recommend AJWA Sultanahmet to anyone who wants to experience the true spirit of Istanbul in an atmosphere of comfort, beauty, and impeccable service.
Lovely stay! From the entrance to the interior decor, everything was absolutely stunning and very cozy. The location is a solid 10/10, couldn’t have been better. There are so many historic attractions nearby, along with little shops, supermarkets, the bazaar, and lovely restaurants all within walking distance. The only minor improvement would be the breakfast service, which could be a bit more refined, labeling the food correctly. Other than that, a huge compliment to the reception and concierge team for their kind and warm service.
Verdict: this is a very high-class, emotional, Ottoman-style luxury hotel in the heart of old Istanbul. Not a modern “glass luxury” hotel — it is more like a private Ottoman mansion/palace with Islamic/halal positioning, art, marble, mother-of-pearl furniture, carpets, and historical atmosphere. Tripadvisor describes it as “more than a mere five-star hotel” with a private-mansion feeling and halal hospitality. The location is excellent: AJWA Sultanahmet is at Piyerloti Caddesi No:30, Sultanahmet, close to the core historical district of Istanbul. The hotel offers a spa, indoor pool, steam room and hammam-style wellness facilities, which is important after walking all day in Istanbul. The design is the main reason it feels special: Ottoman splendor, handcrafted furniture, Persian rugs, marble work, painted ceilings and a very rich traditional aesthetic. Preferred Hotels describes it as a five-star hotel in the heart of Old Istanbul with Ottoman-style luxury and views toward the Sea of Marmara from Zeferan Restaurant. Recent review signals are also strong: Expedia shows it as “Exceptional” with hundreds of reviews and highlights the hammam spa, indoor pool, rooftop restaurant, Bosphorus/Old City access, and highly personal service. . My final “100-star” feeling For Sultanahmet, history, romance, Islamic/Ottoman luxury, family stay, quiet elegance — I would give it: Not the best choice if you want modern nightlife, Bosphorus resort energy, or ultra-contemporary luxury. But for old Istanbul soul — AJWA is one of the most beautiful choices.
None
Hotel Clerk and door men were fantastic. So Helpful and I would say the entire hotel staff were extremely service oriented. It was a very luxurious day and every person we interacted with demonstrated the highest level of courtesy. The spa was a wonderful experience, best massage I’ve ever had! Our hotel room was very comfortable and clean. The hotel is a good location in terms of proximity to the old city, breakfast spread is large and the restaurant has a fantastic view.
I wish the dinner and breakfast menus had vegan (dairy/egg/meat free) options. The Gym hours vary by gender and the specified times for women are difficult. There are some brief hours in the early morning and then some hours after 3 PM but it would make it difficult to sight see in the middle of the day and the hours overlap with peak meal times. To be equitable, I think there needs to be something later in the morning, available for women.
Sehr sauber.
Klein Zimmer in Familiensuite hat gar kein Fenster. Dadurch war es dunkel. Einzige Fenster ist zu klein für Suite. Es fällt Information, dass Pool nur zu bestimmten Zeiten (für Frauen nachmittag und Männer vormittag) und nur getrennt genutzt werden darf. Die Lage war zwar zentral, aber nicht besonders schön.
Отличное расположение — многие достопримечательности находятся в пешей доступности. Очень понравились завтраки с красивым видом на воду. Выбор блюд хороший, есть всё необходимое, а также можно заказать дополнительные блюда из меню. Отдельно хочется отметить персонал: сотрудники очень внимательные и искренне заботятся о гостях. Каждый день на ресепшене интересовались, всё ли у нас хорошо, нужна ли уборка или какая-либо помощь. Особенно приятно, что сотрудник быстро запомнил номер нашей комнаты и всегда обращался к нам очень внимательно. В номере идеальная чистота и внимание к деталям: каждое полотенце было аккуратно упаковано в отдельный чехол, все вещи размещены на своих местах, даже увеличительное зеркало было защищено чехлом. Также порадовала ванная комната — отличный напор воды и стабильная температура.
Единственное небольшое пожелание — наличие совместной зоны хамама для пар. Однако понимаем, что раздельное посещение является частью местных традиций и культурных особенностей.
Très belle décoration locale, service très attentionné, très propre, lit très confortable draps très doux. Très bien placé, on peut tout faire à pied. Excellent petit déjeuner avec une belle vue sur la ville.

Hotel, restaurante e hospitalidade excelentes. Qualidade da comida e dos pratos ótima.
Sem reclamações, foram todos ótimos. O transporte na regiao é caótico, apesar de haver taxis, vans, uber sempre a disposição; só o tráfego que é ruim mesmo porém se o objetivo é visitar os principais pontos turisticos é excelente, da pra fazer tudo a pé. Recomendo o uso do Tram para ir ao Galata port que quando nao ha navios atracados vira uma atração à parte.
Great location, really nice hotel , staff were lovely

Very convenient location, helpful staff and good breakfast with the view. Special thanks to the Bell team, for taking care of our transfer.
The shower was,a bit small
Location is excellent. Rooms were very comfortable. Buffet breakfast was very good as well. Staff were all very guest focused and helpful.
Lighting the bathroom wasn’t bright enough for me and the hot water in the bathroom sink wasn’t hot and yet the shower was just fine.
Kaldığımız white house çok konforluydu bi grup arkadaş olarak. Dekorasyon çok güzeldi, evde ihtiyacımız olandan fazlasıyla her şey mevcuttu. Hizmet çok kaliteli ve hızlıydı, çalışanlar çok güler yüzlü ve yardım severlerdi. Harika bir kahvaltı seçenekleri vardı. Çok güzel manzara eşliğinde keyifle yaptık. Konum olarak harika, ulaşımı çok kolay. Herkese tavsiye ederim.
Абсолютно все. Служба консьержа - восхитительно!!!!
Great hotel and location. Wonderful, kind, friendly, attentive staff.
Pool use hours are separated by sex. Opposite sex can use the pool after hours for a fee.
Excellent restaurant with a great view over the old town and sea. Very good breakfasts. Dinners were also very good. The hotel car which took us to some local sights was really helpful as my wife is disabled. The reception staff, the concierges and luggage staff were all so friendly and helpful. Very enjoyable stay in the old town within easy reach of the historic centre.
Maravilhoso para quem quer conhecer a parte histórica, atendentes maravilhosos, recepcao excelente, cafe da manha excelente, restaurante com vista incrivel.
Meu cartao foi cobrado integralmente a estadia semanas antes do check in e ao falar com hotel ainda fui informada que a tarifa era nao reembolsavel e tenho a confirmacao do booking que seria cobrada no ckeck in e era reembolsavel. Ainda bem que nao tive que cancelar. Cuidem ao fazer a reserva. Cuidado com alguns quartos, o meu tinha banheira e meu marido idoso teve dificuldade p entrar.
The breakfast buffet was absolutely amazing! And the view was perfection. I loved the inlay furniture in our room. The artwork all around the property was amazing. The staff couldn't have been more helpful. The concierge, Marie, was especially helpful.
I don't think there was anything that could be improved upon.
Fanstastic location. Incredible staff. Beautiful hotel and delicious breakfast!
I have nothing negative to say
Консьерж и персонал в целом выше всяких похвал и ожиданий. Очень помогли со сложной логистикой: нам был нужен трансфер в аэропорт ночью со стадиона вместе с багажом. Предложили пару вариантов и проконтролировали весь процесс.
Дизайн на любителя, но мы знали, где бронировали номер. Фотографии полностью передают восточную специфику отеля. Совсем не в моем вкусе, но кому-то может быть по душе. В итоге это оказался лучший выбор именно благодаря персоналу, соотношению цена/качество и локации.
Ce magnifique établissement tout près des grands monuments d'Istanbul s'intègre parfaitement dans son quartier. La décoration correspond à ce que l'on peut rechercher dans pareil endroit. Le quartier est très pitoresque. Près du grand Bazar et de la mer en même temps, sa situation géographique est parfaite. Le petit-déjeuner est excellent et très varié.
rien à redire

Front desk was great. Good location. Very authentic feel.
A beautiful property, well located, great breakfast included. The staff was very kind and accommodating, especially Aytac and the bell team. Every day Aytac and his team went out of their way to make sure that we had everything we needed.
Staff very helpful
It did not have a bar serving alcohol
The hotel was located perfectly for us. It was within a 10 min walk of the Grand Bazaar in one direction and the Sophia Hagia in another. We stayed there twice for 3 days, split up by a trip to Cappadocia. We had a deluxe room and a corner suite. Both were lovely, although the latter was quite a bit larger. The beds were very comfortable and the decor was beautiful. The breakfast buffet was very good with nice views overlooking the water in the distance. All of the staff were very friendly helpful. Aytac and the 'bell team' were especially helpful with our bags. We liked the fact that there were plenty of moderately priced restaurants in the area. Also, there were a couple of decent laundry facilities just down the block but we didn't use them as this was our last stop before home. The drive to the hotel from the airport is about an hour because of traffic in the old city.
The hot water in the bathroom sink was not hot, compared to the shower. The lighting in the bathroom was not as bright as I like for shaving. We didn't use the spa/gym but men and women have separate times to use it. I thought the hotel was expensive but included in the price is a 20%? VAT which makes Istanbul expensive in general.
