A little run down.

Very close to all major attractions.

Very close to the old city sights, helpful staff obtaining a taxi to the airport. A very brief stay in Istanbul was easy and worthwhile

The bathroom was a disaster! There was black mould on the ceiling ( health hazard ) caused I expect by persons NOT opening the bathroom window, which was the only means of ventilation. The bath/shower access was up a step and over into a deep ceramic tiled bath. Again a hazard, and I slipped badly once. The water pressure to the shower and sink tap was too high, causing either leakage ( shower head ) or splashing when turning on the tap. The room we were allocated was up a couple of steep flights of stairs. NOT good for elderly people!!! Not good with heavy luggage. There was no reception, sitting area to relax out of the room, but still in the hotel. This should not really be termed a hotel, more a B&B.

The hotel location was excellent. There was another restaurant business at the hotel, which was very busy, despite the high food prices in this area. All ways of making money are utilised, which is, somewhat restrictive for passers by. All sights were within easy walking distance, as was the tram, which is very useful, with an Istanbul travel card, to see all of Istanbul, not just the locality. The room size was good, and the extra third bed was not required. The hotel owner was friendly, the breakfast adequate if the same every day. Not a cooked meal, but a pre-prepared one. The price of this room was OK for what was available.

Some living room pillows where not to clean but the ones to sleep were fresh and clean.

The location is perfect to go by foot everywhere. The breakfast was well served and the people very nice. We had a nice balcony.

Bathroom was too small. Some renovations needed. No slippers no bathrobe were provided

The room was clean, breakfast was good enough, staff very helpful. Excellent location. Early check in possible. Very quiet street. Good value for this price.

Everything is ok 👌

If it can be improved, the hotel owner can provide at least an electric kettle and some cooking utensils such as cups, bowls and ovens. There is a kitchen in the room but it cannot be used.

When I arrived, the staff at the counter helped me and my friends carry our luggage up the stairs to the third floor. The room is spacious and comfortable. Clean bathroom. The heater works well. The location of the hotel is close to Hagia Sofia and the Blue Mosque.

Without being anything serious, the area is a bit noisy at night. The bathroom smelled a little bad.

The location of the hotel means you can easily walk to many of the most interesting places in the city centre. The breakfast was also very good.

There will not be much to dislike about hotel han, if you don't like early morning chanting by the priests at the mosques it might be a problem for you.

You cannot get a better location. I have stayed at Hotel Han on 3 trips and its always what's expected, not perfect but comfortable clean and homely. Having the Barbecue restaurant at your doorstep is also great to end your day of excursions. Always a lot of fun with the friendly staff. Great access to the tram station that you can easily get around on to limit long walks. Although in that area that can also be a good thing.

Unfortunately the kitchen is not equipped (there is basically nothing but some cupboards and a fridge). The room is not well isolated and one ears the neighbors as if they would stay in the same room. The showers mixer is not working properly (shower fluctuates from hot to cold all the time).

Very central location close to all the main attractions. The room is not big but comfortable and the terrace offers a view on Hadia Sophia.

No lift so a little struggle if you have big suitcase

Excellent location, nice area, old building but very clean.

Everyday you get the same breakfast, it becomes a bit boring to have the same thing in the morning specially if you are there for more than 3 days. Sometimes they hurry you up to finish your breakfast, specially if it already strikes 10 am.

For the price and the location, that place is recommended, specially that it is 10 mins walk from Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace etc The atmosphere was amazing, the location was vibrant, some of the staffs were amazing, a special thanks to Vetsel, who’s been so helpful and professional and who ensured we had a good stay.

The rooms are simple and the bathroom is quite small. If people want something fancy, this is not it. But if you appreciate friendly and helpful hosts with a great location for sightseeing, this is a good place to stay.

The location was only two blocks from the metro station that we took from the airport and was only a few minutes walk from sites such as the Blue Mosque. We only had one night in Istanbul and it was more that adequate with a good breakfast to boot.

The food price is too high in that area.

The location of the hotel is superb.

The location is fantastic - only a few-minute walk from the main attractions and excellent transportation links. The room was small but it's good value for money. The bedlinen was clean and fresh.

There were a lot of illogical things in the room. There was absolutely no place to leave a towel, not a single hook. The TV is in a corner nobody can see but we didn't mind it. Also,there were a lot of hangers, but again, no place to put them. The room wasn't cleaned every day, and since there were 4 people, it was noticeable. Also, if you can avoid it, don't book airport transport through them. The price is always different, and they ask for way more than it actually costs. On top of that, drivers are always late, which seems to be normal for Turkish people. If you do book with them, make sure to book 30 minutes earlier than you would normally have, because the driver will be late.

The biggest perk is location. Just a few steps away from Hagia Sophia, everything is nearby. The room is big enough for 4 people and the beds are comfortable. The breakfast is good enough for the price we paid. Overall a decent stay.

Every single morning breakfast is the same. We didnt like it and when you get every morning the same thing its not good. Other hotels with this price range have identical breakfast.... There is picture of breakfast. Hotel doesnt look amazing from the outside and staircase and holways are tight but room itself is amazing and you dont go to Istanbul to spend time in hotel.

Hotel is in perfect location, room is clean and beds are super comfy. Hotel is Cheap if you compare it to others in area. Staff is good. Everybody is willing to help.

The room was pretty small and the breakfast had very few options for vegan diet.

The hotel has an excellent location, only a few hundred meters from Hagia Sofia, Topikapi Palace and the other main sight for the Golden Horn. The room has very good heating systems, making the room really warm. The room was clean.

Second stay bathroom was very small. Tiny house small. But everything else was great. I had a broken ankle so the tight space was difficult for me. My hubby found it fine 🙂

Best position possible. Just perfect 200m from Haggia Sofia, 180 from Basilica Cisterns and 200m from Tram. Nice breakfast, lovley friendly staff.

- We were overcharged €100 upon check in, but were too tired to notice as we paid in lire. The hotel staff made us aware of this the next day, which was appreciated. However, we were refunded €100 in cash, and as a Norwegian I cannot make use of euro bank notes, so I will have to exhange it for a fee. - The wifi barely worked. A lot of the time it didn’t work at all. - The flusher for the toilet was broken. The water in tve shower switched between ice cold and boiling hot without us touching the faucet. PS. The staff in the restaurants downstairs in the hotel building did not leave us alone when we were coming and going. Some even blocked the way for us to try make us go into their restaurants. This is not the hotel’s fault, but if you’re not comfortable being hassled at the hotel doorstep this might not be the place for you!

Very good location in old Istanbul. Restaurants, bars, shopping, supermarkets and attractions were within walking distance. Friendly staff. Comfortable bed and decent sized room. 24 hour reception was great as we arrived late and checked out early.
