The location of the hotel was the best. If you want to stay in the old town near the main attractions, you can’t beat that. However, there are some things you should know. If you book the blue mosque view Rome, the bathroom is a Turkish style and very small and not convenient. The staff was very friendly and helpful, but they didn’t have any other options besides this type of room. They did move us the second day to a bigger room, but the bathroom had the same limitation. The breakfast is good and you can request them to cook your eggs and there’s a decent variety. It’s a good overall stay but for the price we expected a little more amenities and the room to be a little better.

Great location. Rooms pretty basic.

The breakfast was good. Easy starting the day without thinking about where to go for breakfast. Good variety. They did run out of items during our stay. No butter and no bananas. The room was basic, no luxury. The bathroom was strange and small and very hard to maneuver. Staff were very nice. The location was perfect and we had no problem walking everywhere we wanted to.

We enjoyed our stay at Sultanhamet Palace Hotel. The location was so close to all the main historic sites in Istanbul. The staff was friendly. The first night, the pillows were too full for us so we took the pillow cases and put them on decorative pillows. The housekeeper noticed and provided us with flatter pillows without us having to ask. Our favorite spot was the balcony as we had a close up view of the blue Mosque and a view of the Bosphorus Strait. We were unable to get a larger room and our room was quite small and repairs were not done well. The biggest complaint would be the breakfast. We spent 1 week in Greece and 2 weeks in Turkey staying in several hotels with each including breakfast and this was the worst. We heard other people complaining. The bread was hard and stale, there was not much variety, the jams were not homemade and had little flavor. We even went out to eat breakfast the last day we were there because it was so disappointing. However, I would stay there again just for the location and staff.

My cousin and I had a wonderful experience. As two women traveling in Istanbul our biggest priority was safety and this hotel provided exactly that! All the staff were so kind and the location of the hotel was perfect for seeing all of the major sites. Thank you, Sultanahmet Palace Hotel for being apart of a great experience in Istanbul!
