This charming hotel has helpful and knowledgeable staff. They were friendly and made us feel at home. The room was very clean and comfortable, though the pillows were a little too firm for me. We were on the interior courtyard, which was very quiet. The breakfast was extensive and outstanding. The location is terrific. It's in a lovely, lively neighborhood full of restaurants and cafes. It's 5-10 minutes from Hagia Sofia and Topkapi, the Blue Mosque, and the Basilica Cistern. We walked to the Grand Bazaar and Spice Market as well. The price was very competitive. We would definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing experience at the Henna Hotel in Istanbul. The staff were absolutely incredible—so warm and attentive. Every morning they checked in to see if we were okay and whether we needed any help. They genuinely cared about our safety and went out of their way to ensure we enjoyed our time in the city. They provided excellent tips on where to eat, how to get around, and even what areas to avoid. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to all the iconic sights, which made exploring Istanbul so easy. We were so grateful and glad we stayed here. Rooms were very small but we didn’t mind as the location was perfect and our bathroom was spacious and able to move around. I can’t recommend this hotel enough. If you want friendly, helpful staff and a perfect location, Henna Hotel is the place to stay! I’ll be back for sure!!
