This hotel is a restored traditional wooden mansion, painted pastel shades with a lovely courtyard garden restaurant where you can dine in shade or sun while fountains play. It was furnished in antique style with many antique paintings and prints on the walls which were carefully chosen. Room 33 was very comfortable, not spacious but more than adequate and the... More

Just a wonderful stay in a mostly empty hotel in the off season: Feb. 2013. Lovely room with a view on the Blue Mosque and wake-up calls with the call to prayer in the morning. A delightful hidden garden and indoor restaurant. Excellent service all around. In season, one really will need to book I imagine as there are only... More

This hotel is in an excellent location, within walking distance of the major sites (Blue Mosque, Aya Sofia, Topkapi Palace and one of the best hamams in Istanbul). The room was clean and comfortable, though a little on the small side (it is an old house). I would have liked an electric jug in the room so I could have... More

We were on level 4 - with no lift. Had to move furniture out of the room to fit in our two small cases. Bathroom so small that we had to sit sideways on the loo!!! Breakfast adequate but very plain. All forgiven for the location as you can walk to all the main attractions - but at E200 p... More

I spent the last night of my 9 days in Turkey in Yeśil Ev, and it delivered spectacularly. Right besides the best Hamam in the city, between the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, beside a Madeasa that now teaches the making of local ceramics, and outside the Arrasta Bazaar, the hotel nicely rounded our trip out. The bathroom was... More

I just returned from a 5 night stay at Yesil Ev and I must say the location, the ambience, service, food and simple beauty are not to be beat. The staff were so very helpful with every request - large or small or in-between. The garden as other reviewers have said is an oasis in a bustling area - you... More

I just returned from my 2nd stay at Yesil Ev in 3 months. During a May visit to Istanbul, I started out at The W Hotel in Nishantashi. Nothing bad to say about W. It was lovely, totally in line with any hipster W I've stayed with great service but I felt that I could have been at the W... More

Yesil Ev is a lovely hotel. The guest and public rooms are charming. Breakfast outside in the courtyard is very pleasant. The hotel's location is great in terms of access to the old city. It's a bit too close to the minarets though and the call to prayers can be very disruptive to your sleep.

We were guests at YE for I week. It is warn, intimate and charming A real oasis. The gardens are magnificent for breakfast, lunch or dinner or tea in the afternoon or cocktails in the evening. It is simply the prettiest place in Istanbul. The food is wonderful and service great. Their location cannot be beat. You are right between... More
