Loved the turkish breakfast buffet, had a wonderful selection of fruits, vegetables, and cheeses, coffee (from an espresso machine) turkish tea, toast, bread, eggs, sausages and fruit juice, among other things. The rooms were spacious, clean, and well-appointed; and same with the bathrooms. The bidet toilet was a welcome surprise after long travels without! Loved the old-world charm of the hotel and it's styling, and the incredibly friendly and attentive staff who were so much help to us. The gorgeous rooftop terrace had an almost panoramic view of the bosphorus. The location in Sultanahamet was unparalleled, and not only was it a short walk from big sights like hagia sophia, and the blue mosque, it was also surrounded by restaurants and cafes, and a short walk from the tram stop.

The hotel is within a few minutes walk to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Nice hotel in a great location. The twin room we had was spacious and very clean. The towels and bedsheets were changed everyday. Breakfast was good. The view from the terrace is great. All the staff are very friendly and helpful - couldn't have asked for anything more.

There was nothing to dislike about this hotel. There is no lift in the hotel but we knew that before we booked it, so this was not an issue for us.

A very big Thank You to this family-owned hotel who went out of their way to ensure our time in Istanbul was memorable. They went above and beyond in every way, especially their personal service, excellent local knowledge and advice. The bedroom/bathroom was as described and spotlessly clean. Having stayed in Sultanahmet before, I can say this hotel is perfectly placed - on a small, quiet street and in easy walking distance to the Hippodrome, Grand Bazaar and quieter, less-tourist-crowded areas. We arrived as strangers and left as friends. Highly recommended - we'll definitely return. Sheelagh Holgate

Wonderful hotel - clean and comfortable. The view from the terrace is a separate kind of beauty. Towels were changed every day and an additional hairdryer was provided free of charge upon request. Sultanahmet Square and a tram stop are a 5-7 minute walk away. I recommend the hotel for accommodation. Location, daily change of towels, view from terrace, friendliness of the staff - main advantages of the hotel.

if you add bathrobes to the rooms it would be great!

Incredible service!!!!! No request was too big. Our experience was spectacular. Breakfast was fresh and hearty each morning. Rooms were cleaned daily. Such a central location (5 minutes to the Blue Mosque) but still super quiet at night. The front desk is always manned and ready to assist however they can. If you are deciding between a few hotels (like we were) make the right decision and pick here.

The hotel was in walking distance from Sultanahmet Mosque and Hagia Sofia. Breakfast was varied both continental and hot - it was consistently replenished throughout the time, the lady making breakfast offered omelettes as well. Hotel room was spacious and comfortable with a good size bathroom that had constant hot water. Fresh towels, bedding and toiletries were changed for the 4 nights we stayed and Taner on the front desk was extremely friendly and welcoming - nothing was too much of an ask (for example free water bottles, extra toilet roll and even Turkish tea). All in all an excellent stay and the hotel is family run!

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. It's nice and easily accessible to major attractions, close to several restaurants, shops, markets and masjids. The family who own the hotel are very warm and hospitable and always ready to assist. The lovely lady and man who help maintain the building are wonderful as well. We look forward to staying here again on our next visit to Istanbul. Thanks everyone!

Central located family owned hotel in the touristic part of old Istanbul, at walking distance to the main touristic attractions (Blue Mosk, Agia Sofia, Sultan Palace, Old bazaar, etc.), excellent buffet breakfast and access to the roof top terrace with amazing view on the Marmara sea. Very large and confortable double bed. Extremely helpful and friendly owner and front desk managers. Very good value for the money we paid

Nothing special

great location and super friendly staff give you a fab base to see the city. So this is a budget hotel but the staff are super friendly and helpful and it really is a great location for seeing the sights of the city. A wonderful restraurant Garden 1897 just around the corner and loads of restaurants, markets and massage places all around. great rooftop terrace

Nothing really! Breakfast is basic and filling, and be aware its a walk up so there are no elevators, but only 4 floors.

Sultanahmed Cesme Hotel is really amazing, very satisfying. The location is very close to the tourist sites we want to visit. The bedrooms and toilets are very clean and comfortable. The breakfast is delicious and healthy, with a beautiful view of the sea. The manager, Tekin, is very friendly, kind and helpful. We can ask him for any help, because we don't speak Turkish. He also really made sure all our needs at the hotel were met. We highly recommend this hotel to friends who want to vacation in Türkiye.

There isn't any. If you don't like walking, the location of this hotel will be inconvenient. Because it goes up and down.
