I had booked for three nights, I turned up in the early evening, exactly as I had advised, only to be told that they were overbooked for the first two nights. There was a suggestion from one staff member that an existing guest had decided to extend his/her stay. Well, this always creates an unfavourable impression. I was refered to... more

From the moment we checked in and our luggage was carried to our room the service was faultless. The room was clean, light and comfortable with a great view of the Blue Mosque and the sea of Marmara and on a hot Istanbul day the air-conditioning was wonderful! Located a stones throw from the Hippodrome and Museum of Islamic Art... more

Quite a charming place,with lovely,helpful and efficient staff. However we paid a premium for our room 4A,which was nothing special. The price reflects the location - a stone's throw from just about every major sight you want to see, and this room has views over the Blue Mosque and the Sea of Marmara. We did get 10% off the price... more

This moderately-priced hotel is located in the centre of the old city, literally a few feet above the ancient obelisks of... more

The staff remembered me, they were attentive, room was lovely and clean over looking the Blue Mosque and they still had the orange and apricot marmalade at breakfast - yumm!! They gave us some good advice for bargining in the Grand Bazaar. Everything is within walking distance -... more

Although we had a basement room (we booked at the last minute and there was an International Water Forum taking place) we were happy with our two single bedded room. Those of you who are still smokers might want to know that it opens out into a 'well' where you can step outside and light up (probably known by the... more

My Mom and I stayed here and had an excellent visit during Ramadan. The staff were kind, attentive and extraordinarily helpful--ranging from finding us a travel agent and walking us to his office to letting me use their fax machine to finish up some work. The travel agent by the way quoted us far less than everyone else we shopped... more

The Turkoman Hotel is an old Ottoman house located just across the Hippodrome and Blue Mosque. It is perfect for sightseeing. Each room is decorated in Ottoman style and has a unique name for each room. My room was called Fethiye and it overlooked the Blue Mosque. Breakfast is on the roof terrace overlooking the Blue Mosque. The staff are... more
