Deniz Houses

It looks exactly what is shown in the photo; only better. The room was nicely appointed, spacious enough for two people, everything is clean and the housekeeping great. Bed was a little hard, yet okay.. We had a corner room on the street side which was relatively quiet For the price everything was really fabulous. Breakfast was typical Istanbul: several types of olives, raisins, cereal, yogurt, boiled eggs, cake, cookies, delicious breads and jellies, a tasty baked cheesy potato dish, wieners, pastries, deviled eggs, apricots, sliced oranges and tomatoes, apples, oranges, coffee, tea, milk and juices in a rooftop setting over looking the sea. . Breakfast starts at 8 and lasts until 10. The hotel is close to all the major attractions, the staff very friendly. We took advantage of a couple of tours, the Bosphorus tour and the Dervish attraction, also a ride from the airport and massages one night. The massages were at the Royal Orca hotel, but we will probably not go back, though it looks like it is a great place for exercising and enjoying the saunas. Spent time at the archaelogical museum, visited Topkapi and the Blue Mosque. We even went to a mall after taking the Bagcilar tram to the outskirts. I brought home some great Turkish towels found in the Grand Bazaar and we ate at a bunch of wonderful restaurants including the Hippodrome right around the corner from our hotel. All in all, it was a wonderful stay. for a fantastic price that included breakfast. I highly recommend this hotel and when we go back, we will stay there again. We had no trouble with locals hawking their wares. Mainly we ignored them, not talking at all and they quickly got the message and went away.

This hotel is located in the heart of Sultanahmet, where all the major historical attractions such as the Blue Mosque are located. Our room was tiny but comfortable. Breakfast was a meal to look forward to. Would definitely stay at this hotel again.

My experience here was quite good. The staff was friendly and very helpful in helping you to access the tourist sites in the area. I had a nice seaside room with a balcony, that would have made for great morning/evening relaxation in the warmer months. For 20 Euros, there is a shuttle that will take you to the airport. Three things to consider there is no elevator though again the staff will help you get your bags up the stairs; Wifi did not work in my 2nd floor room but was excellent in the lobby. The ceiling in the bath/shower is low and if you are tall you will either have to take a bath or stoop to take a shower. If I return to Istanbul, I will stay there again.

Clean rooms, freindly staff, good breakfast, excellent location

L'hotel est très bien situé, pas loin de la mosquée bleue, entre mer de Marmara, hippodrome, le personnel est accueillant, même si tous les employés ont essayes de nous vendre un circuit, un trajet vers aéroport... une fois avoir dit non merci une fois, c'est bon, ils sont clairement commissionnés sur ces prestations, mais ils font leur boulot avec le touriste c'est normal.sinon le Deniz B, première surprise, il y a deux Deniz, on croit à l'arnaque mais en fait ça va, le bat B est bien, belle terrasse vue sur mer, bon petit dej inclus, magnifique vue. Pour résumé, chambres propres, ménage fait tous les jours, SDB dans la chambre pour madame, accueil bien= bon point de chute pour Istanbul. Au début ils nous ont mis chambre 1 en sous sol, humide et petite, j'ai gueulé et le lendemain, ils ont transféré nos affaires vers belle grande chambre vue sur mer. J'espère que ces conseils vous seront utiles et que vous passerez comme nous un magnifique séjour dans cette belle ville d'Istanbul.
