We were very pleased with our stay at the Hippodrome. The hotel arranged our shuttle in from the airport and each time we used their service (4 times) the driver was there waiting for us. The room was extremely clean and the maid service was excellent! The breakfast in the morning at the hotel across the street was exceptional, the... more

It's right in the middle of Sultanahmet so a really close walk to the Blue Mosque, Topkapi and Aya Sophia, and the Galata Bridge and the Grand Bazaar were only 15/20 min walk.

I stayed at the Hippodrome for a week at Easter 2007. I was travelling with my mother who is in her seventies. When we arrived we were advised that there was a problem with the room and we were taken a sister hotel for one night. The sister hotel was no better than a hostel. We had to sleep in... more

The hotel clerk told us to take a... more
