Top Bab-i Ali Kapisi Hotel Reviews

Sultanhan Hotel - Special Class

8/10 Good

"Location was excellent, breakfast was decent. Rooms are dated but clean. Staff was nice and helpful. I was not given the room I booked online, I ended up getting a room with 3 beds which occupied all the space in the room. Air conditioner was not working properly. Generally above average but not luxury."

Seven Hills Palace & Spa

8/10 Good

"Every member of the staff was wonderful, from housekeepers to managers and everyone in between. The location is near central sites, yet away from the throng of tourists. The spa is a treat. Visually, the property is attractive. The guides and excursions arranged by the hotel were the outstanding. Poor maintenance overshadowed the charm of the building where our room was located. It was clean, but the 1950/1960 cooling system is not air conditioning. It blows centralized air across water pipes and took hours to cool with curtains closed. An electrical outlet pulled out of the wall. A guest on the first floor had the same problem. Outdoor speakers played music at night and in the morning. Single pane windows shared the sound in our room. The room itself was oddly arranged. The TV was behind the dresser mirror, far from the left side of the bed, such that viewing was impractical. The sofa was beside the dresser where the TV could not bee seen. I give the property an overall rating of four stars because the staff earned five stars. The room deserves two stars. Another guest might give an overall rating of three stars. I give four because the staff cannot be faulted for deficient capital expenditure funding."

Hotel Saba

8/10 Good

"Great location. Older part of time, smaller rooms but clean, and nice staff. Lacking certain amenities but that's typical for hotels in this area."

Emerald Mansion Hotel – Special Class

10/10 Excellent

"I chose The Emerald Mansion hotel because of the location. It's walking distance to the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, the grand bazzar and the tram stop is a short walk away. The beds are comfortable, breakfast is huge. I was on a fat free diet, so instead of giving me cheese, as part of the breakfast platter ( omlette, boiled egg, cheese, croissant, jams, honey, hazelnut spread, and a roll) they did fruit instead ( sliced apple and pear). All the staff are lovely and helpful especially Mel on Reception. She was great, very helpful and always smiling and happy to help. The hotel has 15 rooms, so it's intimate and cozy. There are shops and restaurants everywhere. We'd go back again."

AJWA Sultanahmet

10/10 Excellent

"I’m soooo happy I chose Ajwa Sultanahmet! It was worth every penny. The team is incredibly attentive, always doing their best to accommodate your needs and make you feel genuinely at home. It reminded me of all the little things that make staying at a great hotel so special. The location is fantastic, surrounded by great restaurants and within walking distance of many of Istanbul’s top attractions. But what really sets this hotel apart is its design. The attention to detail, beautiful craftsmanship, and traditional Turkish touches make it feel like you’re staying somewhere truly special, rather than in another sleek, corporate hotel that could be anywhere in the world. I would go back in a heartbeat and honestly cannot recommend it enough. If you’re looking for a hotel that combines exceptional hospitality, a wonderful location, and an authentic sense of place, Ajwa Sultanahmet is it!"

The Marmara Taksim

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel and well located"

GLK PREMIER Sea Mansion Suites & Spa - Special Class

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location, great staff and good facilities. Airport shuttle worked well. All in all excellent hotel."

Blue Gilroy Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel and I was in a large room. Staff helpful and the cleaning crew were very good. The bed and linen were comfortable. The hotel is one long block from the tram line and is surrounded by restaurants. Very quiet other than the calls to prayer., While breakfast was not MY style the other guest enjoyed it. I stayed a week and if I did not already have reservations at another hotel I would have stayed at the Blue Gilroy my entire three week stay in Istanbul. ."

Adamar Hotel - Special Class

10/10 Excellent

"Very good staff and a great location. Rooms were small, but affordable given the great location. I had a view of the Haiga Sophia and a bit of the Bosphorus coast. Had a fairly good breakfast with many choices and an even better view than the room,a panoramic 360 unobstructed view."
