The room was not only comfortable but also well-maintained, ensuring a pleasant stay. Moreover, the hotel's prime location was a significant highlight, as it was incredibly convenient for exploring iconic landmarks such as the Blue Mosque and Ayasofia. One of the most memorable experiences was the breakfast served on the terrace, offering breathtaking views of both the sea and the Blue Mosque. It was a true feast for the senses. The chef's culinary skills were truly exceptional, as they crafted a breakfast that felt more like a lavish lunch, impressing me with their creativity and attention to detail. The staff, including the chef, were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, making me feel right at home during my stay. Overall, I can confidently say that this hotel provided an outstanding experience that left me with fond memories and a desire to return in the future.

The glass covering the bedside tables posed a safety concern for children, and the nighttime lighting was too bright and disruptive for others when using the bathroom.

If I go back to Istanbul, this is the hotel I will most probably go back to. Wel located, behind Sultan Ahmed mosque, about 700m from tram line 1. Small, quiet and pleasant hotel. Clean, Nice staff. Breakfast room on the 6th floor with views on Sultan Ahmed and the sea.

The good thing is it's around the corner from Istanbul's top attractions Sultan Ahmed & Ayasofia mosque. At the same time you're in one of Istanbul's most touristic areas. We travelled in December (low season) and for us it was perfect. I guess it all depends on what you're looking for, the number of days you're staying and what your priorities are.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this remarkable hotel in downtown Istanbul, and I must say, the experience exceeded all expectations. From the moment we stepped into the lobby, we were greeted with warm smiles and a genuine sense of hospitality that set the tone for the entire stay. The hotel's location in downtown Istanbul is fantastic, providing easy access to key attractions and the vibrant energy of the city. However, what truly sets this establishment apart is the mesmerizing sea view that it offers. Our room, with its large windows, provided a panoramic spectacle of the Marmara Sea that left us in awe. The real gem of our stay was the terrace with a 180-degree view of Istanbul. It was an absolute delight to enjoy breakfast with such a breathtaking backdrop. What truly made our stay exceptional, though, was the staff. The level of service provided by the hotel staff was beyond exemplary. They were not only professional but also incredibly friendly and went the extra mile to ensure our comfort. It felt as though we were staying with friends who were genuinely invested in making our experience memorable. It was evident that the management takes great pride in maintaining high standards. In conclusion, if you're looking for a hotel that is budget friendly and has breathtaking views and a welcoming atmosphere in downtown Istanbul, look no further.

The location of the property is amazing The view from the terrace where breakfast is served is breathtaking, tou can see Bosphorus and the city. The room was ok and clean.

Sometimes the breakfast choices were not great. Or everything was already finished Hotel does not have its own parking, only street parking. Reception assured me its fine to park on the street and that it’s free. No signs anywhere saying the parking has to be paid or i would have paid for it When I crossed the border, they told me I had a paeking fine for the street parking in front of the hotel Tried to contact the hotel but they did not alnowledge any resposability Not a big issue, not a big fine, but its frustrating

Excellent location. Walking distance to Hagia Sophia, Sultan Ahmet Mosque, Topkapi Palace and Hippodrome, Trams stop and Metro. Lots of cafes, restaurants & shops nearby. You can catch the Ferry to Uskudar (Asia side) and come back by Marmara Tunnel. Beautiful seaside walk. We stayed here for 12 days and can highly recommend it. Mehmet and the team are very helpful and friendly. They go out of the way to help. Breakfast is included and you can sit on the rooftop Terrace which has a beautiful view. Our room was on the 5th floor and had a lovely sea view. Great service all round.

All good

The breakfast was phenomenal! There are two wonderful Turkish ladies that make a delicious spread every morning of savory and sweet options. The dining area is located on a quaint rooftop terrace that offers breathtaking views of the Old city. The hotel itself is located in one of the best quiet and peaceful neighborhoods. Both serious tourists and more relaxed adventure seekers can enjoy the 5 minute walk to the Blue Mosque and the Hagya Sophia.

We tremendously enjoyed this home like boutique hotel. It had all the necessities, clean, courteous staff, great location which is walking distance from THe Blue Mosque , Hagia Sofia and other tourist attractions. The rooms were a good size (not spacious yet enough). We stayed at the sea view twin beds rooms. Breakfast was average. Not extravagant yet sufficient. Mehmet was super helpful and gave us a lot of advice on where to go in Istanbul. and Nilufer (breakfast staff) was extremely welcoming with a big smile on her face all the time. I would not only recommend them. I will come back to them.next time I visit beautiful Istanbul. Aren Suites , keep up the good work 👏

Nothing. Would've liked more variety at breakfast only .

Breakfast Terrace was open with an incredible view of The Bosphorous. The quality of the breakfast was good with some new offerings every morning. Accessibility to coffee and tea was an added bonus. The location was incredible within walking distance of all the sights both touristy and local. The elevator was also helpful and the managing staff were very helpful and friendly. We also loved having a jacuzzi bath for recovery at the end of long days of walking.

The room was a bit old and it hadn't been updated. It was also smaller than anticipated, the photo made it look roomier. Less bulky furniture would open it up more.

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of the Sultanahmet district, which means a few minutes’ walk to historical landmarks such as the Blue Mosque or Hagia Sofia. The rooms are clean, spacious and comfortable, and the staff is very welcoming and friendly (reception, restaurant and cleaning personnel).

Nothing really. The furniture in the rooms is a bit dated, but in good condition, and we would have liked to be provided with slippers - but could definitely do without them. Like most buildings in the area, the space can be quite tight in the hallways or staircases, so you’ll need to watch your steps to avoid accidents.

Yusuf at the reception is the best! He helped me tackling with the scammer and I finally got the money back and also arranged a taxi and tour and everything. The owner of the hotel is very lucky to have him! Apart from this, sea view room is nice, bigger than other rooms in Sultanahmet. Breakfast is also good with a a variety of dishes and fresh fruits. It’s very clean and located near everything
