The property is in an excellent location, within walking distance to major attractions such as the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. Excellent breakfasts with a good choice of food. Plenty of eating places nearby. The hotel is an old property and could do with some modernisation in places, including better plumbing to prevent unpleasant smells. Having said that the room was comfortable and quiet and we would stay there again.

Great location, everything you want to see within easy walking distance. Friendly staff and good breakfast. Housekeeping could be better and the rooms are not soundproof as per the description given by Expedia which was the main reason for my selection. Outside building work will effect your sleep.

The staff was very friendly, polite and helpful. Every inch of this hotel was extremely clean, and super friendly. The location was only 1 street away from the famous Blue Mosque & all the shops. The famous market was also a 5-7 minute walk away. There was a lot of restaurants & food options near the hotel. Would definitely come again!

My family and I stayed here during Christmas break and could not be more pleased with the outstanding service. The hotel was located within minutes of all the popular attractions, room size was greatly catered to our needs, cleanliness was quite evident, and the entire staff was amazing. The receptionist Ugur was very helpful with attraction/food recommendations and was a total life saver when I forgot an item at the hotel before my flight back home. Definitely recommend Edibe Sultan hotel if visiting Istanbul Türkeye.

It was nice hotel good value for money. All major sites within a short walking distance. The staff was very helpful my wife injured her food they gave us a wheel chair. However, electric wheel chairs would be better in that area as the roads are narrow, historic made of bricks and Istanbul is a hilly city. The area around the hotel is also has some steep roads. The breakfast was fresh and nice with a variety of breads fruits cheeses sausages scrambled and boiled eggs pastries tea coffee and juices. The staff is lovely and helpful. Daily room service cleaning wise is average but fresh towels, soaps, water bottles tea bags coffee and creamers are given daily and any thing you request they go out of their way to help you. Family friendly hotel. We will definitely be going there again we all loved the hotel and the location. Edible sultan we are coming again soon!

City is beautiful, close to the blue mosque. Hotel was very noise, the first night we got a smelly room, shower rooms are very small, can’t even take a proper shower inside due to limited shower room. Heating was not working. The next day we got another room, they did not change the bed sheets, pillow cover and blankets for 4 days. I had to complain to the manager.

So close yet so far 😓
The hotel is situated in a prime location in Sultanhamet, Istanbul. The hotel staff are amazing and very professional, cleanliness was up to scratch but unfortunately that's where it ends. There was a smell emanating from the shower drain which was awful, the walls are extremely thin so you can hear everything from other rooms in the hotel, conjoining or not. The breakfast was limited to fruit, salads and scrambled eggs - great if you're dieting I guess.

The location is really sold us on the property. It is very close to many of the main sites in Istanbul and a block away from a hole area of restaurants. Transportation is easy and it’s very walkable to side she want to see without needing a taxi. The lobby and room are beautiful. Our room was very small with very limited storage but had a nice balcony. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Room service was lacking as they did not clean the room two of the three nights that we were there. A couple of the hand towels had stains on them as well.

Not what I expected
We were 2 families, booked 2 superior double rooms, received 1 triple which was ok and 1 double no more than basic, without hanger for jackets, no table, no luggage rack. We move the luggage rack from the triple to the double room, because the receptionist answer to our complain was: it is what it is, can't change anything. Also the bathroom has minimum storage space, so I think the photos are somehow deceptive. Very good breakfast.

I chose this property because of its proximity to what we wanted to see, which was a great move considering the traffic and overpriced taxis in Istanbul. The one thing you might have trouble with is the taxi to and from the airport because it is in the historic part of Istanbul which is very busy but you'll be close to the bazars. Hagia Sophia, blue mosque. Topaki Palace. The property looks as it does on the listing and there is an extensive offering of savory and sweet for breakfast the breakfast staff is very kind and keeps the area clean. Special thanks to Reyzan who welcomed us with both information and conversation. Such a sweet soul and wanted to make sure we enjoyed our time. We scheduled our airport taxi through the hotel which was absolutely the right move because the price was accurate, and they can help you time it given how bad the traffic is in Istanbul. One staff member actually went out into traffic with me on the side streets ( because the street is too narrow for cars to enter) to find the taxi I scheduled which was so nice and I could never have done it without him :) <3
