Their breakfast and restaurant are top-notch. Probably the best meal of our trip. Don’t hesitate, its worth the extra bucks to stay here."

"Got a free upgrade to the 4th floor room upon checking in, super friendly staff, room was very spacious with clean and modern amenities (especially loved the shower), great location with walkable distance to all the major tourist sites in Fatih, noise free too considering its location, very happy with the stay!"

"The staff was excellent!"

Blue Gilroy Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I was very happy staying here for the two weeks I was in the Sultanahmet area. The location is close to all the important historic sights you‘d want to see. The hotel is also just a few steps from public transportation, great Turkish restaurants, bank ATM’s, and shopping. Muhammed as well as the other manager, the kitchen and housekeeping teams were all outgoing, friendly, and professional. The rooms are clean, the mattresses and pillows were very comfortable, and the bathrooms had great water pressure with plenty of hot water. The WiFi was strong and easy to connect to. The breakfast offered plenty of traditional Turkish options like simit, olives, cheeses, sausage, cucumbers, tomatoes, honey, a cereal assortment, yogurt, fresh fruit, and eggs. Thank you for making my stay so comfortable."

Emerald Mansion Hotel – Special Class

"Small hotel with cozy rooms and very friendly staff."

Seven Hills Palace & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Well this hotel is a real palace . Beautiful inside an outside on the grounds . I have nt been to the Italian coast but I felt like I was there . There were lemon trees by the pool area . There were grape vines and the nicest most helpful staff. They upgraded my room for me for free . It was wonderful to have a nicer room because I came to turkey for surgery and stayed inside my room most of the time . I absolutely loved this hotel . I definitely recommend it . It’s its own little paradise"

Peyk Hotel Sultanahmet

10/10 Excellent

"A great place for a comfortable stay. We stayed at the hotel in September 2026 and had a very positive experience. The room was clean, recently renovated, and had a comfortable bed. The bathroom was stocked with fresh white towels and basic toiletries. Housekeeping was regular and thorough. The room also had air conditioning, a kettle, and a fridge, with coffee, tea, and bottled water replenished daily—something you don’t always see even in more expensive hotels. The hotel is located in a very pleasant neighborhood of Istanbul, just a 4–5-minute leisurely walk to the square with the famous Blue Mosque. There are plenty of shops and cafes nearby to grab a quick bite or have an inexpensive dinner. The front desk staff were very welcoming—they checked us in right away and were always happy to answer questions. We really enjoyed the breakfast buffet: there was a good selection of delicious porridge, omelets, cold cuts, fresh pastries, vegetables, fruit, and good coffee. One minor drawback was the lack of a second chair. Even though it was a double room, there was only one armchair, though I’m sure this could easily be arranged by asking at reception. We will definitely be back and will happily recommend this hotel to our friends!"
