it's interesting to read the different experiences that people have with the same facility. Much depends on expectations and attitudes. We were in the Novano at the end of March and had a very good stay. The room was not large but clean and pleasant, fortunately at the front, so we did not deal with the back wall view. We... More

This is a great little hotel. Excellent location - just a few hundred yards from the Aya Sofia & Blue Mosque. Clean, comfortable rooms. Freindly and helpful staff. The pictures of the rooms on their website are an accurate dipiction of the rooms (unlike some hotels that just show you the "best" or "staged" room...) Excellent!

To put my review in perspective this is my 30th trip to Turkey both business and pleasure. This trip was for pleasure and we stayed for 6 days. One problem with this hotel was our transfer did not turn up, making a poor start. Our plane was an hour late, so we phoned the hotel was told by hotel worker... More

We stayed at his Hotel for 3 days and were very happy with our choice. This is a small boutique hotel in a great location of Istanbul where you can walk to most of the city's attractions without a problem. The area is picturesque and there are many restaurants to choose from that are excellent and inexpensive. The hotel itself... More

My husband and I visited Istanbul in June 2011 and we stayed at the Hotel Novano. It's a great hotel, in a great spot. Within walking distance to restaurants, the old town, major attractions and shops. The room is a little small, but for the location and price, it's perfect. Request a front room that faces the street and you... More

Hotel Novano is considering it's prices a real gem! Location, location, location: it's just a couple of minutes walking to some of the biggest attractions: blue Mosque, Aya Sophia, the cisterns, ... and the Sultanhamet area (max. 5 tot 10min). As for the hotel itself: the rooms are normal sized and very clean. The staff did their utmost best to... More

Stayed here in winter, got a great price for 4 nights. This is a new property, about 2 years old. Nestled between the Blue Mosque and a bazaar in Sultanhamet, the location is perfect for sightseeing. As a result, everything was a little smaller than I was used to (the front "desk" is just a nook". We had a 2nd... More

Very small and nice hotel. Beautiful interior, friendly staff, good breakfast. But be on the alert with the manager, he's incredibly friendly but if you are not cautious you have a risk to be cheated in some details, i.e. paying for mini-bar we mixed up and gave 50 lire instead of 5, and he quickly took the money, but it...

This is a tiny 3-star hotel in a quiet tiny street right behind the Blue Mosque, in the center of the old town. This is not the side of town where the nightlife is, therefore it's going to be your perfect quiet location if you're not into nightlife. Rooms are small but impeccably clean and newly funished. No fancy views... More
