This is an excellent small hotel especially if you want to avoid the big chain hotels. I picked it because of the trip advisor reviews and was not disappointed. Superb value. It is in a very good location 10 minutes walk from the Blue Mosque. Good service. A comfortable bed in a clean, pleasantly decorated simple room with a spotless... more

The Asmali Konak hotel was a great surprise for me, especially after reading some of the negative reviews on the site. It is a beautiful hotel, with great rooms (and bathrooms), greta breakfast, a wonderful terrace with panoramic views and perfect location. We stayed in one of the basement rooms, and, although these were a bit on the small side,... more

I can't say enough about how wonderful this hotel is. Excellent value, lovely rooms, very clean and safe. Location is very close to all the Old Town sights (Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia etc), but still doesn't feel too touristy. Delicious breakfast in the morning with pastries, eggs, toast, eggs, cheese etc... and free tea or coffee any time. You can... more

I keep coming back to Istanbul few times a year as a tour guide with my clients. It took long time to find the best compromise between location, price, comfort and quality of service. Staying in the Asmali Hotel changed all this into one sentence - no compromises needed at all. Close to the main attractions and yet staying in... more

Excellent boutique hotel with all the major sights on your doorstep. The decor is in keeping with it's title as a Turkish Mansion; very quaint. Staff were always warm and inviting. They were incredibly helpful and would always do everything they could to make our stay comfortable. Stay included breakfast on the roof terace providing absolutely stunning 360 degree views... more

A real gem of a hotel. An excellent location - within five minutes walk of the Blue Mosque, Hippodrome, Aya Sofia, Basilica Cistern & the Sultanahmet tram stop. Staff are really helpful & can't do enough. We stayed in the Mansion Room (no 401) which was very large - sitting area with TV and large wardrobe (with safe), good sized... more

We were greeted with a friendly arrival once we reached the hotel. Joe was very helpful, giving us a map of Istanbul and explaining to us the trips we could take around Istanbul and the important sites we could see. We were upgraded to the Mansion suite which was very large, could sleep 3, and had a jet-bubble bath. The... more

A good value b & b. It seems the rooms vary, ours was small but comfortable and clean and there was enough light to read by. One can escape the tv in the breakfast room by going to the very pleasant terrace. We found the staff friendly and helpful. There are plenty of places to eat nearby but beware of... more

Very bad setvice, unhelpful staff, very noise, no warm water, flirty staff. The room smelled smoke. The keys of your room are not safe, they hide the keys under a book and there is no staff there to make sure that the keys of your room are safe. Lazy staff. The rooms are not clean. A very bad experience, it... more
