    We had a wonderful stay at this hotel – everything was perfect from the warm welcome to the great service. The location is incredible, just steps away from Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace. Special thanks to Sedat, Oumaima, Adem and Burak for making our experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended! Cindy & Naouri

    The staff and hotel were excellent. We also had a great view of the waterfront from our room. The receptionist was amazing providing off with a lot of valuable information about areas to check out in the city and how to get there. We really enjoyed our stay.

    Room was a bit small and the breakfast was not as good as some of the other places we have stayed recently.

    Great location, close to the major attractions such as the mosques, Topkapi Palace and Basilica Cistern. Also many restaurants and shops in the vicinity. Very friendly and helpful staff. Our room was comfortable and had a great view to the Bosphorous.

    Prime location, friendly staff, huge breakfast and comfortable beds.

    The only downside is that the electric doesn't work unless the key is in, which means when you return to your room on a hot day the room is very hot until the A/C can cool it down. This makes it a little uncomfortable for about 20 minutes or so. We understand however that if they didn't regulate that people would run the A/C's all day.

    Prime location on the European side of Istanbul. 5 minute walk to Hagia Sofia and the Blue Mosque. 15-20 min walk to the bridge to take you across the water to the other side. Huge breakfast buffet and we liked how they changed the menu every day. Coffee/tea available nearly all day. The rooms were nice and clean and the beds were very comfortable. The staff were very friendly they checked in on us before our arrival and helped us with airport transport. They also helped us get the sunset boat trip. We opted for the non-dinner cruise which was only 20 euro (as opposed to around 60 euro). It was perfect for what we wanted and a great experience.

    The hotel facilities aren’t that new, you can see it in the bathroom (shower). Also, our luck : door key was broken and it took 2 days to replace it, but they did their best.

    Exceptional stuff! Very friendly , polite and helpful! Thank you! Also we had a stunning Bosphorus view from our room. Breakfast was alright, and beverages were for free during the day.

    The breakfast could have been a bit fresher with more simple options, and fridge made strange sound over the night, but overall it was a good experience.

    I had a pleasant stay at Sultan Hamit Hotel , the location was excellent, the room comfortable, clean what is most important, and the staff very kind and helpful.

They even packed us a sandwich for breakfast since we had to leave early for our flight. Snack time was a wonderful delight. Breakfast was yummy. We will be back!!

    No 1: The staff at Sultan Hamit were wonderful - friendly - thoughtful - and very professional. 10/10 No 2: We loved the breakfast room / afternoon break room where we could help ourselves to an array of drinks & snacks. The hotel kindly allowed our daughter to visit us ( she was in a nearby hotel) and we could enjoy precious time together. No. 3: Location fabulous - so near to the historical sites but yet quiet & slightly back from the crowds. Loved coming back to our room after a day out in the heat , to find freshly stocked bottled water too. Also: a hotel lift is a wonderful thing when you are exhausted!

    We loved our stay at the sultan hamit hotel! The hotel was clean and the staff very helpful and welcoming, especially Enes, who worked at the reception. Also the hotel was located very close to all major turist attractions, but still a bit away from all the hustle and bustle, and therefore not too noisy. We would definetely recommend staying here if you’re going to Istanbul.

    The terrace in front of the hotel needs to be cleaned more often. It would be a very nice place if cleaned! The AC in the restaurant was not turned on during snack time and it got really hot inside and also no cold water during snack time (water is provided in the minifridge from the room, but not and snack time).

    Location is great, just a few steps (literally) to Hagia Sophia’s entrance to visiting area and also to Topkapi Palace, so the area is extremly safe. The staff is very friendly and constantly willing to help. The rooms are clean and some of them are quite big (talking about standard rooms, not those from basement). Coffee from the house all day long. Free snacks in the afternoon (peanuts, some waffles, some fruits, coffee, water). Water provided in the minifridge!
