Conveniently and centrally located, with easy access to everything— sightseeing spots like sultanmet square, blue mosque, haqia, etc. Walkable from this place. There are plenty of nearby options for both food and shopping. The rooms are clean and offer ample space for a family of four. They have a nice terrace for morning breakfast with great views of city. Front desk was very helpful and courteous.

Great stay, friendly and helpful staff. Excellent location, close to good shopping, eateries and historic landmarks! Dinner was excellent however breakfast was somewhat lacking in variety for day to day! The breads were fresh and tasty. I recommend this hotel to everyone, especially seniors! I shall certainly return in the future as there’s a lot yet to see and experience in Istanbul!

Ideal location, very friendly, helpful staff.

It was a perfect place for us to stay during our first time visit to Istanbul. The location is ideal for all things to see in the vicinity. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful as needed. The breakfast food was excellent with many options. The rooms were small, but that is to be expected in this area. For as old as the building is, it was quite clean and well-maintained.

We had a very short but excellent stay at the Sultanhan Hotel in Istanbul. The location is truly unbeatable—just a short walk from major landmarks like the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, which we could even see from our balcony. It made sightseeing incredibly convenient and added to the charm of the stay. The room was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate our family of four, though a bit of extra space would’ve been ideal. That said, the room had a beautiful, royal feel to it, with elegant touches reflecting local architecture and design. It felt both authentic and cozy. The hotel felt very safe and comfortable throughout our stay. The staff were especially friendly and helpful, always available to assist with anything from local guidance and taxi bookings to recommendations for shopping and dining. Overall, Sultanhan Hotel is a great choice for a comfortable, centrally located stay in Istanbul with warm hospitality and a touch of local character.
