Dirty, out dated, uncomfortable. Woman at front desk rude, unhelpful and disorganised. I find it hard to believe it would pass any safety standards or public health standard tests. Shower was cold, doors at toilets don't lock. No toilet paper.

The Sipahi Hotel is an excellent budget hotel in Istanbul. It is a hotel which has a very good position, very close to Istanbul's famous historical sites like the Sultan Ahmed Mosque or Hagia Sophia. Moreover, it is very close to the tram station "Cemberlitas" so the access is not a problem.The staff is very polite, helpful.

Hey everyone, You need to understand, Istanbul is an expensive place to stay in. I have been going there for the last 3 years and i can tell you this: for a great value in an excellent location, this beats everyone hands down.

During the stay in Istanbul, you should use Sipahi Otel.Good location, Good value for money and Good service.Furthermore,I was so happy to see friendly staffs.I promise that you can have a good trip!!

The location is not bad: the "hotel" (I place the word within quotes because this... More

We stayed here for our TopDeck Tour through Europe. The hotel was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in, the tents we had in mykonos were even better than this hotel. Bathrooms were shared facilties which were dirty and smelly and the rooms were cramped and dirty. Most of the plumbing did not work in this hotel and the... More

I like this hotel. I have stay there twice now It is in a great location near to all the main attractions and also public transport. It's very clean and good valve for the location and comfort. Extremely friendly staff willing to help you. Perfect trips in Istanbul.

Not a pleasant experience, dirty rooms, slack security, unhelpful staff, and truely filthy bathrooms. For the same price you can get much better hotels in the area, so don't choose this one!
