We spent 4 days in the Albinas hotel and were perfectly happy. It is a little hotel with a personal touch in a quiet part, but in the middle of the must-see sights of Istanbul, a couple of hundered meters from the Blue Mosque. The rooms are small but modern, equipped with all the basics including minibar and complimentary coffee/tea.... More

First the downsides - the shower fitting is too close to the wall so I struggled to get wet - and I am not particularly tall. The plumbing and air con (which works well) are noisy. There are a few frayed ends in the corridors. The Wi-Fi - while free is highly variable - sometimes very quick, others times non-existent.... More

Once you arrive at Albinas, you can be sure that the staff will do everything for your warm staying. The room are clean, the bed are cosy, there is the air conditionner in the room. The hotel is placed on a little street and with closed windows it's really quite. In 5 minutes on feet you will be at Sultanhamet... More

We stayed at the hotel for 4 nights and we had a good experience. The hotel is located on a quiet street behind the Blue Mosque within 5-10 minute walking distance from the hippodrome, the mosque and Haiga Sofia but most importantly a 10-12 minute walk from the tram that will take you around the city. The hotel itself appears... More

Hotel is quaint....great location for exploring Istanbul. Rooms were very small and not particularly the cleanest, but it was okay. Breakfast was very good and the best part of this hotel is their roof top terrace. Amazing views! I would go back.

However, we were expected, and alternate arrangements had been made: we were walked to a hotel next door to spend the night, and picked up there the next morning. Buffet breakfast, served in the downstairs lobby and... More
