Everything was perfect The reception was very friendly and helpful.
Отель удачно расположен в историческом центре, рядом остановки общественного транспорта. Заселили без проблем(у нас было позднее заселение). Номер чистый, сантехника работает. Вода горячая была. мы были в феврале, кондиционер на тепло работает. Предоставляют воду при заезде, тапочки. Персонал отличный.
Под окнами трамвай, для кого то может быть шумно, он работает с 6 утра до 00 часов
موقع المكان ممتاز جداً جداً انصح فيه ياجماعة
Das Personal war außergewöhnlich nett und stets hilfsbereit. Bei jedem Problem wurde uns sofort geholfen, und wenn wir etwas benötigt haben, wurde es umgehend organisiert. Die Lage des Hotels ist hervorragend – innerhalb von nur fünf Minuten Fußweg kann man alles Wichtige erreichen. Die Zimmer sind groß, sehr sauber und mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht. Vielen herzlichen Dank an das Team vom Nea Suites Old City. Bis zum nächsten Mal!

كل شي كان جميل
Хочу начать свой отзыв с того, что мы в Стамбуле уже 5 раз и немного успели изучить отели. Данный отель находится в самом удобном на наш взгляд месте в 5 шагах от остановки трамвая Т1 и в 10 минутах от пристани Эминеню от куда отходят паромы, почти во все направления Стамбула. Район Сиркеджи. До всех достопримечательностей 5 минут прогулочным шагом. Район усыпан разными кафе, ресторанами, столовыми, и еще много заведений типа донеры(по нашему шаурма) сладости, кофейни и в 3 шагах даже Хафиз Мустафа есть кондитерская (кто был в Стамбуле меня поймет). Отель находится в самом центре этого района, отель не большой на каждом этаже всего один номер. Номер НЕ маленький, по Стамбульским меркам "огромный" кровать, прикроватные тумбочки большая софа, журнальный столик и туалетная комната. Мы жили в 106 номере на 6 этаже. Пастельное белье белоснежное (меняли 1 раз в 3 дня) уборка каждый день и девочка убиралась очень хорошо. Да, немного уставшая мебель, но в этом номере очень уютно, тепло, просторно. Ванна комната отличная, напор горячей воды супер... имеется лейка типа тропического душа, все принадлежности (мыло, шампунь, кондиционер ) все имеется. Рядом с отелем в 5 метрах обменник валюты ( с адекватными ценами) рядом есть отел с экскурсиями на любой вкус и кошелек. Ребята на ресепшене просто отличные.. Огромное им спасибо всегда с улыбкой, всегда вежливые, всегда помогут. Завтраки проходят в рядом стоящем отеле.. завтраки хорошие омлет, овощи, разновидности колбас, сладости, выпечки и т.д. Нам очень понравился этот отель.

Чистый уютный отель. Очень удобное расположение. В нескольких шагах от пристани Эмененю в 10 минутах от площади Султанахмет
L’hôtel est vraiment en plein centre a 10min de la mosquée bleue et de la sainte Sophie des commerces juste à côté je recommande
Rien
La ubicación es excelente y el personal muy amable siempre ofrecen ayuda.
La iluminación un poco escasa a la hora de querer maquillar
الغرف واسعه بعض الشي مقارنة بفنادق اسطنبول واشكر الموظف محمد على حسن التعامل
اول وصولي لم تكن الغرف متاحه واضطررت للانتظار حتى تفرغ ، الغرف ليست نظيفه غبار واوساخ اسفل السرير ومفارش السرر قديمه ومهترئه ودورة المياه يوجد بها علب منظفات فارغه وعدم التجاوب من الموظف اميرهان لتبديلها والعامله المسؤوله عن تنظيف الغرف سيئه اخلاقاً ولاتريد ان تطلبها شي لتفعله ووجدنا مفتاح الحمام مكسور والمكيف التدفئه لايعمل يتم فصلها من الكنترول ولايتم تشغيلها حتى نطلب منهم ذلك بعد محاولات وبعد يومين تعطل قفل باب الغرفه وتم طلب تغيير الغرفه حتى يتم رد المصلح عليهم في اليوم التالي وجميع اغراضي الضروريه بالغرفه ورفضت ذلك بالاضافه لعدم تواجد موظف الاستقبال في الاستقبال في حال احتجت الى شي منهم يتم الاتصال به ولا يرد عليك وغير متواجد . اضف الى طرق باب الغرفه اخر الليل بدون وجود احد 🤷🏻 فندق حصل على تقييم عالي وهو على العكس من ذلك تجربه لن تتكرر ابدا ابدا 👎🏻
الموظفون والخدمة كانت استثنائية المكان في المركز وبجانب كل شيئ
Das Personal war sehr freundlich, kompetent und hilfsbereit. Ein großes Danken und Lob an alle Mitarbeiter vor allem an Herrn Muhammed Aṣkın.
Gibt nichts
Excellent location close to all public transport in Istanbul. The staff is also very welcoming. Highly recommended!
Nada,
Excellente situation géographique, proche de tous les moyens de transport. Chambre très spacieuse et propreté impeccable. Le personnel était très chaleureux et accueillant. Un remerciement tout particulier à Muhammed, qui a fait preuve de beaucoup de bienveillance et de gentillesse.
Rien de particulier, si ce n’est qu’un petit entretien des chambres et des équipements pourrait être envisagé.
This is my second time I stayed in this hotel. The location is amazing, within walking distance to all attractions as well as main metro station. The hotel is very safe, clean, quiet and cozy. The room is large with excellent bathrooms and showers. The receptionists are so polite, supportive and smile. Super fast wifi. I recommend it
Everything was great
Friendly staff, cozy stay with an amazing Bosporus view, very good location, walking distance from all historic places and bazaars .. 1 minute walking to tram and metro stations, everything was super!
Nothing not to like
위치가 너무 너무 좋습니다. 교통도 매우 편리합니다. 트램 역까지 도보 2분입니다. 최고라는 케밥 집이 있는 식당 거리?도 도보 2분, 공인 주류 판매 점도 도보 3분 거리에 두 개나 있습니다. 게다가 해외 관광객 상대인 바자가 아닌 로컬 인들이 더 많은 진짜? 바자도 도보 5 분 거리입니다. 교통이 좋은 위치라 소음을 걱정했지만 3중? 창 덕에 큰 소음 없이 조용히 잘 지냈습니다. 각 층에 객실이 한 개 씩 이라 옆 방 소음도 없습니다. 무엇보다도 동급? 호텔 중 객실이 제일 넓은 듯 합니다. 위치 만으로도 가성비 갑입니다. 호텔의 부대 시설이나 기타 설비? 보다는 오직 숙박 만을 위한다면 추천합니다. 재 방문 의사 백 퍼 입니다.
다른 부대 시설이 1도 없이 오직 숙박 그 자체에만 너무나 충실한 점 :)) 객실이 넓은 만큼 그에 맞는 테이블이 있었으면 더 좋았겠어요.
الموقع يخدم كل شي في سركجي على بعد خطوات من حافظ مصطفى موظفين الاستقبال ودودين و خدومين الاخ محمد و امير تعاملهم جداً لطيف دورة المياة ممتازة
الاثاث قديم ويحتاج تجديد الستاير و الاسرة
Excellent location right near the tram station, the pier and within walking distance to everything that you want to see.
Nothing
لايوجد استقبال فالفندق والمسافه بعيده للمصعد
الموقع قريب من المواقع منطقة سركجي
الفندق نظيف جدا و الموقع قريب من الاماكن السياحيه المهمه وعلى بعد خطوات من الترام ومن كل شي مهم لك كاسائح وتعامل الموظفين راقي جدا الاخ محمد في شفت الصباح صاحب الابتسامه المميزه التى لا تفارقه ساعدنا وسهل لنا كل شي والاخ امير خان في شفت المساء اشكره على حسن تعامله ومساعدتنا على حمل الشنط بنفسه الى السياره التى كانت بمكان بعيد عن الفندق وهذا كرم منه
مهم جدا ..الاسره تحتاج تجديد وتبديل الاغطيه والمخدات
Nothing I booked another hotel and couldn’t stay in this hotel
Very old furniture Nothing like the photos
Location : very central, near all main sites (10mn walking from Sainte Sophie, Citernes, Mosquée bleue...). Lots of restaurants and shops nearby. Tramway and metro 1mn walking distance from the hotel! Room was big enough with partial View on the bosphorus! Staff was very friendly. We highly recommend this hotel.
The ventilation of the bathroom was not working, would be nice to fix it to evacuate humidity. But nothing that bothered us
The location is the best for traveling istanbul. As someone who goes there almost every year, the most central location is here. The staff were wonderful and the hotel overall was an amazing experience.
We were awakened almost everyday to loud construction noises which isn't ideal when you're trying to catch up on sleep during vacation. The noises were loud enough to be from inside the hotel but upon asking the staff they said it was the building next door so I can't really blame them.
Das personal war äusserst freundlich
Die Lage ist super und das hotel ist sehr schön und sauber. Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit
الفندق جميل جدا وبعتمده بكل سفره ل اسطنبول باذن الله
Great location, we booked the room with the balcony so it’s very spacious. A special thanks to Ensar who went out of his way to make our holiday a memorable one. He went the extra mile in helping us with whatever we needed always with a smile. The communication was also very good before we arrived. We arrived very early as we had an early flight, and he said if the room was not occupied he would give us an early check in which he did. He even offered us breakfast at one of their other hotels as this hotel doesn’t provide breakfast. So many thanks to Ensar we really appreciated all the help and advice you gave us.
Nothing
La chambre était propre, le personnel est très gentil. L'emplacement est top
Nous sommes arrivés très tard le soir et il n'y avait personne à l'accueil et nous n'avons pas pu entrer dans l'hôtel qui était fermé. Il a fallu qu'on se débrouille pour avoir de la connexion pour appeler le numéro de l'hôtel pour qu une personne vienne nous prendre en charge. Il nous a expliqué qu'à partir de 21heures il quittait l'hôtel pour faire l'accueil dans un autre hôtel
The location
Отличное расположение, рядом все транспортные развязки. Верхний номер с терассой с красивым видом. В номере чисто, все работало. Номера убирали.
На самом деле номерной фонд очень уставший, на фотографиях выглядит намного лучше, наверное фото старые. Персонал редко бывает на месте, как я понял они работают сразу на несколько таких отелей. Фактически это не отель как принято, респешена нет, это больше апартаменты.
الموقع النظافة الراحة محمد شخص جدا متعاون ولطيف
حجم الغرفة +الموقع + الموظفين محمد ومحمود قمة في الادب والاخلاق ومتعاونين جداً جداً
الاثاث شوي قديم يحتاج تغيير او تنظيف اكثر فقط
Le garçon a l'accueil était très bien. Nous donner chaque jour des bouteilles d'eau c'était parfait
Pas d'eau chaude le dernière jour Beaucoup de bruit : ascenseur, tramway? Prière et poir couronner le tout des travaux rendant la chambre insupportable en journée Istanbul est une ville où tous les avis google sont faux et où ils passent tout leur temps à essayer d'arnaquer les touristes. Je n'y remettrai jamais les pieds et pourtant j'ai voyage partou4 dans le monde depuis des décennies.
Location was amazing and close to shops, restaurants, sights and tram
Det var rent og centralt
we can 100% recommend Nea suite hotel. the staff was really friendly and especially one called Mohammed he was very helpful the rooms were clean and up to standard
L'emplacement est top, c'est la seconde année de suite que je réserve dans cet établissement et je suis toujours très content !
L'emplacement
Locația excelenta, in inima Sultanahmet, aproape de Hagia Sophia, Grand Bazaar, podul Galata. Vederea la mare, spectaculoasa. Personalul serviabil, excelent.

Прекрасный отель! Расположение удобное,всего 10 минут пешком к голубой мечети и Айя София .Рядом всё, что нужно для отдыха. Отдельное спасибо сотрудникам — внимательные, доброжелательные, всегда с улыбкой. Рекомендуем! P.S. вид с нашего балкона
작은 호텔인데, 엘리베이터 있었고, 짐옮기는것 다 도와주셔서 매우 편했어요~ 스몰토크도 적당히 좋았고, 제가 요구하지 않아도 세심하게 잘 챙겨주셨어요. 시르케지역 20미터 거리라, 5시반에 출발하는 지방투어 예약했는데, 이동하기 매우 편했고, 그 새벽에 나가는데, 샌드위치2개와 자두 2개, 사과2개, 물2개 그리고 기념 파우치도 챙겨주셨어용~^^ 잘배웅해주셔서 감사했습니다. 다음에도 이스탄불에 올때 이용하고 싶습니다~^^ 바로앞에 트램이 지나가지만 소음은 심할정도 아니였고, 번화가에 있어서 오히려 늦게까지 관광이 가능할 것 같습니다. 공항버스 하바이스트 11번 300미터앞에 정류장있어요~ 숙소모습은 못찍었는데, 사진과 동일했어요~
미리 매니저님의 연락처를 알았다면, 체크인시간을 잘 소통할 수 있었을텐데요~ 비행기연착으로 인한 제실수같아 좀 죄송했어요. 그럼에도 먼저 미안하다 말해주시고, 감사했습니다.
الموقع مميز وقريب جدا من المترو وموقع جيد جدا
الأصنصير صفير ومدخل الفندق صغير جدا ايديصلح لشخصين أسرة صعب لازم تطلع للدور الأول عشان تصل للاصنصير للعائلة أو الناس الكبار صعب وخصوصا إذا معاك شنط كثيرة متعب هذه ملاحظتي امًا الموقع ممتاز
4 eme séjour: la grande chambre et la propreté sont de grands atouts pour nous
الموقع ،النظافه جيده ، الموظف متعاون ،
كان هناك مشكله في الاضاءه للأسف لم تحل
The location is super great.. the balcony in room 107 is fantastic..the staff js nice &cooperative ( Mahmood)
It was not clean with hair on the pillows.. bath door with no lock..elevator on the 1st floor (you should use the stairs to reach it) & it was too narrow
위치좋고 직원도 친절하고 시설도 가성비있었어요.
Excellent location . Mahmut at reception is very attentive and helpful
Nothing
Location is great, room was very clean and functional.
It was a bit noisy because of the central location but wasn a problem for us
Good place friendly staff and great location
Convenient location
Old and dated. Everything was coming out
Breakfast was not included for us however there was an issue with minor shower flooding and we were offered another room that we did not need and a good free breakfast for two. The staff were very accommodating and helpful. The only downside is we were next to the tram line on the second floor. Insulation was good however we come from a rural environment and it took a day to get used to the hustle and bustle of the city. One of the managers at the front desk Mahmoud, was very helpful as were others at the front desk. We had more exposure to Mahmoud. The staff we rate a 10! Overall experience of hotel we rate a 7.
See above
Excellent location within walking distance to all major attractions; Smooth communication, flexible check in time after midnight as our flight was late. Friendly staff was very helpful with arranging transfer between airport and hotel. Excellent house keeping. Excellent shower water pressure.
Very good location, close to all infrastructure and touristic sights. Polite staff.
Clean. Perfectly located to visit Istanbul. The guys at the reception are very helpful.
The noise from the street is a bit too much at the 4th floor. Can't imagine how is at lower levels. It bothered us in the first night. But after the first night we where too tired to notice.
Situated in the old town, Istanbul. The property is very small. Each floor only has one room. Reception is on the first floor. You have to walk up quite a few steep steps to get to. It’s just a desk in the corridor. Very small lift operates between floors 1 and 6. It says one person only, but two people can squeeze in. The entrance opens onto the street with trams passing very close. The rooms are large with air-conditioning and heating which you can set to your preference. my room on floor 5 had a partial view of the waterfront. The bed was large and quite firm. There is also a large sofa bed which looked quite comfortable. You can hear traffic, but it’s not too intrusive. You are in the middle of town so it is to be expected. The trams stop about midnight and resume about 6am. They are very useful. You get a card and top up with money at Pay points near tram stops. The ensuite bathroom is clean and it has everything you need along with good water pressure in the shower. If Wi-Fi is important to you, it is very good. You are surrounded with great options for food and shopping. Average cost of a meal for one adult and three grown up children including drinks was about £75 - £100. For the price we paid, I can’t complain. Definitely not a hotel more like renting a room. Would recommend staying here if you are a couple or single traveller who wants to explore the old part of Istanbul.
No pavement at the entrance. Winding steps from ground floor to reception area. Very small lift.
Booked here for my mum's birthday and they did not disappoint. I reached out to the front office manager Cihan and he offered to help plan a small surprise for her. On arrival, we were met by the receptionist Mahmud who was an absolute gem. There was nothing that we asked that was too much trouble for him. He was always really polite and greeted us warmly on our exits and returns. On my mum's birthday, he came up to our room with a lovely cake and we sang happy birthday. He was such a joy to be around. He helped carry our luggage up and down and on our leaving, he carried our luggage to the taxi. This hotel is situated in the perfect location in the old town. Everything is in close proximity - parks, metro and train stations, food restaurants, souvenir shops and if you want to see the main landmarks like the 2 x bazaars, main Mosques; they're all within 12 mins walk. Choose here and you will not be disappointed!
The location is amazing, close to all significant attractions. Thanks a lot to Mahmut for being so helpful and kind! We'll definitely look for this hotel again in our future stays in Istanbul.
The hotel is in a somewhat noisy place. During night it's OK, but during daytime the noise from the car horns and trams does not stop. It's not unbearable and we slept nicely, but if absolute silence is important for someone I would suggest looking for another hotel.
Convenient location close to T1 tram and old city sights. Great bathroom and shower. Mahmut the concierge, was great; always available, always helpful and thoughtful.
The place of the hotel is perfect and the hotel men mahmoud was very helpful and kind.
Great location. Comfortable room, nice bed, great design.
The bathroom latch didn’t work
Location Most amazing staff - Numan has proving to be a great host, great communication from booking to leaving after 4 day stay. He welcomed us, gave all details about our stay, arranged airport pick up and drop off, showed us amazing places to eat, exchange money always with a big smile on his face.
The hairdryer stopped working after 2mins of using it and had to wait long time for it to start working again
Our stay in the hotel was amazing! The staff were extremely helpful and answered all our questions. The location was perfect, located right in the centre of old town which was great for visiting all the sites. Our room was spacious and extremely clean. We had a very comfortable stay, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who is visiting Istanbul, it was great value for money.
There's nothing I didn't like about this hotel.
Just wanted to take a moment to commend the exceptional service provided by your receptionist, Numan From the moment we arrived, he greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel welcome. He was incredibly attentive, ensuring that the check-in process was smooth and efficient. we appreciated his willingness to answer all our questions and provide recommendations for local attractions and dining options. Thanks to Numan, our experience at the hotel was truly memorable. Please extend my gratitude to him and recognize his outstanding contribution to your team. I look forward to returning in the future and will gladly recommend your hotel to friends and family.
Location. Numan receptionist. He was veryyy kind and veryyy helpful always ready to go extra miles.. from the moment you book the hotel they text you to check if you need anything prior. They made themselves available on whatsaapp so that u can text them anytime. Really recommend and will definitely come again
To be very picky since everything was very nice was just the bathroom lock not working
Brilliantly located hotel close to the main sights and public transport. Our room was very comfortable and the young staff were super helpful. Recommended if you want simple accommodation close to the action.
The location was excellent, rooms are spacious and the staff were great
Think the rooms need a bit of an upgrade especially for the price that is being paid
Great location so could walk everywhere we wanted to go. Staff very helpful. We had top floor room with balcony which was awesome to sit out on and take in Istanbul.
Little bit noisy because you’re so central and trams underneath you.
Many, many special THANKS to USUF, he is a wonderful person and he did his best to make our stay unforgettable!
