We enjoyed our stay in this hotel. Price for staying close to the points of interest is too high though. Location perfect, breakfast ok, room dark and silent. Staff sometimes a little grumpy. Rooftop restaurant simple, not really in line with the high roomprices. Lobby well designed and comfortable.

Perfect Hotel for a citytrip to Istanbul. The hotel is perfectly located, just a five minute walk to the Aya Sofia, but still in a quiet environment. Rooms were rather small, but clean. Service was great. Would definitely go back here again.

The room was clean & tidy as was the rest of the hotel. Only managed breakfast one morning but the selection available was very good - lots... More

I stayed three times in Celal Sultan within the last two years. The staff has always been friendly, helpful and a part of the success of my stays. Not only do the help you feel good in the hotel, but they also make sure you get good service from taxi drivers, restaurants and so on by calling them in advance.... More

I have been coming to Istanbul every year in February or March for a few days since 2010 as a resting place before traveling on to South Asia on business. A friend recommended the Celal Sultan, and I am delighted she did. This is one of those small hotels that is run on a highly professional basis with a thoughtful,... More

This was our first trip to Istanbul and we wanted a hotel which was near to the usual tourist destinations. This one is perfect! It is a fairly small hotel in a converted building within two minutes walk of Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace etc. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was impeccably clean, but my... More

If you're an average traveler looking for a great deal - search no more. Superior rooms are spacious and comfortable with modern bathroom; tea, coffee and fridge in room; delicious buffet Turkish breakfast in cozy dining room. The Celal Sultan couldn't be more conveniently located in the heart of the Sultahanmet district. Incredible view of the Haggia Sophia from the... More
