This was our second stay here. The location is perfect and the staff are very friendly. The breakfast is great as well. If you have elderly persons or persons with mobility issues the walk up the hill to the blue mosque may not be for them but if not you are there in under 10 minutes with easy access to the main transportation links including the hop on hop off bus.

KHURRAM

Both hosts Irfan and Ismael were super nice, helpful and true gentlemen. Its a beautiful little hotel located in the heart of SultanAhmet district where all big istanbul attractions are at walking distances and probably 50 restaurants at 1 to 10 mins walk. Their breakfasts were pretty decent with a beautiful views looking at the ocean from their terrace.

The location is outstanding and the staff was so supportive and helpful. The terrace has an outstanding view and breakfast was delicious. Lots of amazing food and great coffee, we looked forward to it every morning. The rooms are a little dated and as any old building a lot of creaking but overall a great stay.

Darussaade is a charming boutique hotel located in the heart of Sultanahmet, just steps away from iconic landmarks like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The rooms are cozy. The staff provides exceptional service, always going the extra mile to ensure guests feel welcomed and well taken care of. Breakfast is a delightful spread of fresh Turkish specialties, served in a lovely dining area.
