The room was clean and looked nice, but wasn't anything special (apart from the fact it didn't have that distinct hotelroom smell). What makes this guesthouse so great is the staff and the location! The lobby is an open kitchen/living room, where the staff is always in for a small chat and they give you great advice on what to... More

The overwhelming welcoming feeling of this hotel is outstanding. Rooms are not big, but they are very clean and just the right size. Room had airco and a nice view on the Blue Mosque. The hotel is small and could be hard to find, but is situated on only a 3 minutes walk from the Blue Mosque. The service of... More

The bathroom is ugly and small, you can only stand your two feet and the water did not come out normally. I found all the customers lived there have the... More

We stayed here for three nights recently and found it through TripAdvisor. Like other reviewers, the location was paramount and this hotel is certainly in a great location. As we have never been to Istanbul before, and dont speak Turkish, the airport collection was a bonus! Yusuf and his team were extremely helpful and informative. The tram is a great... More

Ahmet Efendi Evi is a great place to stay - we just stayed one night but I would certainly stay here again if I'm back in Istanbul. Its a small and quiet place so probably not ideal for party animals but great for families, couples, solo travelers and anyone with a flight to catch. Its a little hard to find... More

This is the second time we have stayed here and I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else in Istanbul. The hotel is charming, comfortable and in a perfect location. Mehdi and Yousef are such warm friendly people that you cannot help but feel at ease as soon as you enter the place. Rooms are charming, comfortable and immaculately clean. Breakfast... More

We had a very good time at Ahmed Efendi Evi. Our double room was very comfortable and clean. The view onto the minarets of the Blue Mosque was an additional plus point. The breakfast was a mixture of European (eggs, cereals and jams) and traditional Turkish food - bread, olives and sheep cheese - we liked and enjoyed it with... More
