Overall the staff are very helpful and friendly. The breakfast comes highly recommended and dishes change daily. The staff in the kitchen enjoy life which adds to the experience. The breakfast has many elements of Turkish cuisine which we enjoyed along with options of coffee strength and combinations. The rooms are well maintained and the shower is a real plus. Overall a very good experience in this boutique hotel.

Staff were mostly very helpful had an issue with the air con in our room it was either on all the time or off. Took a couple of days to resolve which was inconvenient especially at night. Roof top was lovely and never busy ( no bar ) staff had no issues with us taking our own drinks though. Room was a tad small but had everything and the beds were very comfortable. Great location for the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia as well as the Grand Bizarre although we found that very over rated. All in a very nice spot to start for a short break to Istanbul . Some of the restaurants locally were very average though food was much better in Kadikoy and a lot cheaper. Thank you to Furkan and Gosiki for arranging our Taxis to and from the airport.

Property was perfect for our needs .... a place to shower, sleep and have breakfast. Conveniently located in the old town, we could walk everywhere. The water pressure and temperature in the shower, were excellent. The only issue that we had, was that the "smoking area" was just outside our window, and our room often smelled of smoke.

Albinas has been chosen through Internet. I believe the hotel is worth staying and they are maintaining the best hospitality and friendly behavior with their guests. Their rates of services are found nominal and the quality they are offering is well above average. We have spent an unforgettable week there.

Albinas Hotel Old City is a hit!
Conveniently located in the Old City. A small boutique hotel that is very well run. Breakfast is nice. We would have appreciated more fresh fruit at breakfast. Walkable to Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, 2 Bazaars, the Hippodrome with many important historic sites. Hotel staff steered us to a good neighborhood restaurant. The room that we had was small, but adequate.
