Location
Location was perfect - so close to all attractions in the Old Town.
Room size
It was fine - not massive but did the job. It was clean throughout.
Bathroom
The bathroom was too small. You need to walk into the shower area to get to the toilet. I actually have a bruise from hitting the ledge when trying to exit the bathroom. The shower curtain has to rest on the toilet brush which we thought was unhygenic. Whilst the hammam bathroom looks good, it was very slippy which is not good for older people.
Breakfast
The view was beautiful but the food was not good except the honey from an actual honeycomb. The juices were all carton drinks. This is not what I was expecting from a Turkish breakfast.
Service
The service was brilliant. Halleel (man on reception in evening) was lovely and so knowledgable. He is a credit to the hotel.

Authentic Turkish Hotel
Lovely authentic Turkish Hotel very close to the Blue Mosque. Nice breakfast with a good view. Needed a little TLC but it was so authentic and close to everything it didn’t matter.

I stayed at the Sultanahmet palace hotel for a long weekend with my mum. The location is great - in the heart of Sultanahmet and near the tram too. The staff are super welcoming and polite. The hotel was really good value for money - our room was huge and looked out on the Blue Mosque.

I loved my stay at this hotel! It was close to almost everything. Even if not close, the metro was 5 mins away and so easy to access. I loved the view of the Bosphorus on one side and the view the Blue Mosque on the other side. The room was a little small but it felt nice to be in a more old Turkish style room. Also the bathroom was also a traditional hamam style. The staff was very helpful and kind!

This is the best hotel in Istambul. Not only are the clean spaces and beautiful views important to us, but the amazing location of this hotel and its staff were beyond exceptional on our trip to Istanbul.
