Firs of all I want to say that I loved this boutique hotel as much as I loved the entire city and I think it's the perfect location for exploring the wonderful Istanbul. From my point of view I can't find anything not good at this hotel. The stuff is just great, they speak a perfect English, they give you... More

We loved our 8 night stay at the Ahmet Efendi Evi. Yusef was there to greet us when we arrived from the airport shortly after daybreak and well before anyone else was stirring. We had been delayed with a diverted flight and an unscheduled 15 hours on the ground at Jakarta airport so were a bit the worse for wear... More

If you are a first time traveler to Istanbul or a seasoned veteran - it would be difficult to find a more perfect place to enjoy your stay. Tucked away in the Sultanahmet district, this little gem is within walking distance to the Blue Mosque, Aya Sofia and the Basilica Cistern. It is also located in an incredible neighborhood away...

My wife and I are from India. We stayed at this amazing place from Nov 6 to Nov 10 2011. The key POSITIVES of this place are: 1. The 55 Euro per night top floor double room was an amazing value for money option compared to the other places we stayed at in Turkey 2. Amazingly courteous, helpful and informative... More

I stayed in the Ahmet Efendi for a week in October and would always come back to this place. Why? - the people in this hotel (the owner and the stuff) were always absolutely friendly and helpful. You asked them about a good, not too expensive place for food: they told you. You asked them about postboxes for your postcards:... More

We arranged airport transport with the hotel over the phone. They told us that it was 40 EUR for two persons. When we paid for this shuttle service during check out all of a sudden they wanted 60 EUR which is more than a normal taxi! In booking confirmation mail a lower price was stated but they said their prices... More

I don't see enough discussion about how wonderful the area is around the hotel. The hotel is on a row of side streets that are 10 blocks from the heart of Sultan Ahmet. You have a row of bars 5 blocks away to enjoy a Efes before you end your day. You also have the waterfront 4 blocks away for... More

We stayed 3 nights at Ahmet Efendi Evi while we were in Istanbul. The hotel was very well presented with a mix of modern and eclectic furnishings. Beds were very comfortable and rooms clean. Yusuf the shift manager was really nice and helpful with giving us info on where to go, eat, do laundry, arrange transport, etc. Mehdi the other... More

I spent a week in Istanbul visiting a friend. I've been suggested of Ahmet Efendi Evi Hotel by other travelers and read positive reviews. It turned to be an excellent choice. The premises, the location and the service were excellent. The hotel manager sent a taxi to pick me up at the airport (ca. 30 min, 20 euro), warm welcome,... More
