I believe I found out about this hotel from a Rick Steves review; it did not disappoint! I was only booked for a 3 day stay at the hotel, however, due to the Icelandic volcano that shut European air traffic down, my trip was extended to approximately 2 weeks. The hotel staff was so incredibly accomodating and made room for... More

If you are a crybaby about room size, don't come here; in fact, don't bother traveling if you are a whiner about that kind of thing. Stay home. This place has LOCATION and coolness. More

My friend and I stayed here for 2 nights and it was very nice. Rooms are quite small and we did have to keep our suitcases on the desk as not enough space otherwise. Breakfast is lovely & the local cheese is delicious. The location is very central, i.e. close to blue mosque but that does mean you get woken... More

This hotel was a nice small boutique hotel. It is in a great location! My room had access to a balcony which is nice! The staff was friendly and pointed out a nice place to eat. The only downsides were they have key based electricity and mine didn't like to work very well. The other is merely the downside of... More

The hotel is small (hotels are in Istanbul unless they are 5-star category. Very clean, Everyone was very accommodating, the gentlemen on the day and night desk were particularly helpful. In some rooms there can be noise due to late arrivals, early departures, but earplugs will take care of such if one is bothered. The rooms are small but all... More

No frills hotel located right behind the Blue Mosque. Good location to discover Sultanahmet. Room and bathroom are basic but clean. Breakfast is ok, nothing to rave about. Regular coffee is really bad though, turkish coffee is available but at additionnal charges, rather surprising for a Turkish hotel Not really recommended for seniors or people with disabilities, the stairs are...

This location of this small wooden hotel is superb as it is within easy walking distance of all the highlights of the old city. The tram is just five minutes walk away so going further is also easy. Our room was small but comfortable and clean. Staff were willing to answer any questions and were unfailingly helpful. More

Hotel Sultan Hill is just behind the Blue Mosque and an easy walk from the end of the Hippodrome. It is in a beautiful old Ottoman house.There was a school behind the hotel - interesting to look at during the day. The stairs are circular and there is no elevator so not a good place for a handicapped person. The... More

Highly recommended, clean, friendly, close to everything. Our son had been working in Tanzania for the past few years and met us in Istanbul. He was staying at a hostel... More

Hotel Sultan Hill was excellent. The staff is very helpful and kind, as a sole female traveller I felt very comfortable and safe. The rooms are relatively spacious, very clean and have working air conditioning (a different experience from another hotel I stayed at in Istanbul). The location is conveniently located next to the major attractions. It is a 3... More
