My 1st choice of hotel was booked, so they recommended the Cem Sultan Hotel. I took a chance, and walked the 5 minutes to visit hotel. Pleasantly surprised. For the ammenities, the hotel was overpriced (50 Euro). However, the price included taxes, buffet breakfast and wi-fi. Some rooms have sea view. Rooms are small, yet clean. The hotel is very... More

Daughter and I stayed 3 nights, Nov. 2009 and found all quite suitable, comfortable and clean. We both have traveled extensively and would have no qualms about moving to another location if this did not meet expectations. GREAT location, Nice staff. More

I read the reviews on this site before booking in at the Cem Sultan for 4 nights. There is a couple of really good reviews and some really bad ones. As an easy going and optimistic type of person I decided to ignore the bad reviews, book my girlfriend and I in get on with our holiday planning. I have... More

The location is really good but with the same price (50 EUR) you can go to a better hotel in the area. I don´t think is worth it more than 30 EUR. It was a total rip.off. More

Disgusting attiude of owner and staff. Did our laundry, caused over 50Euros of damage and refused compensation, despite repeated promises to pay. Wouldn't stay there again if the rooms were free. Undoubtedly the worst service experienced in Turkey More

My stay at the Cem Sultan was nothing short of a dissappointment as I paid 50 euros to stay in what should be described as a sleazy and noisey HOSTEL, not hotel! When we arrived we were abruptly asked to pay up on the spot at reception for the four nights that we had booked. However, it would only get... More

Trust me, you will find a backpapers that is far superior to this place. It was a real disappointment, not least because the staff were thoroughly unpleasant, which is a complete contrast with everyone else in istanbul. They also failed to service the room (towels, rubbish, toilet paper) and had to be asked to do it. The promotional rooms, which... More

I am slow to getting around to write my reviews but I stayed here last year with my family. Like so many have said the location is great for the Sultan Ahmet Area. Our room was exceptionally small (the cheap rooms at the back with no view). There was barely any room to keep our luggage. The service was rather... More
