Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet

Sultan Ahmed Mosque Istanbul|0.39km from Hagia Irene Museum
The room is not big, but the location is super good. The hotel's garden is also very nice, and it's quite nice to take photos. Just 2 minutes after going out, turn right and you will see the Blue Mosque and Sophia Cathedral. There are two Egyptian monuments and a snake-headed staff on the square. The starting point of the sightseeing tour bus is right on the square. It is very convenient to get there. To exit the square, go left. Going out is Victory Street, which is very lively and has trams running through it, which is also very unique. Go down (right) on Victory Street and you will go to the Old Palace. If you look at the mosque on the left and Sophia Cathedral on the right, the Basilica Cistern is on the right side of the square. The entrance to the Basilica Cistern is where people are queuing across the road. We stayed for 5 nights and walked around every day. It was very atmospheric. In Muslim countries, prayers are held five times a day. When the loudspeaker sounds, it is most disturbing in the early morning. However, they seem to be very conscious, and the volume is slightly lower in the morning and the duration is shorter. The rest of the time, just enjoy listening to music when praying. Every time, there is a live broadcast of prayers in every mosque, playing a long tune as if singing, which is very exotic. Basically, you have to negotiate the price of a taxi, and Grab also negotiates the price. They all charge extortionate prices, so you must negotiate before getting in the car.

Hotel Saint Sophia

Sultan Ahmed Mosque Istanbul|0.27km from Hagia Irene Museum
Highly recommended, location: Istanbul - the core location of the old town tour. Opposite the window is the groundwater palace exit; another room window facing the Sofia Cathedral, 50 meters walk from the back door of the hotel is the exit and entrance of Topkapi Palace; the entrance to the hotel is 60 meters away from the entrance to the Sofia Church, the entrance to the church Close to the Blue Mosque and the Church Square; it is a century-old house in the old European district. It seems that the pedestrians who appear on the window are very European. In the morning, we walked along the wall of Topkapi Palace to the beach to see the locals swimming in the sea; visit the church, the palace, and the mosque; the hotel is very close, you can go back to the room and take a shower before you can go; see the pedestrians and dogs in the square in the afternoon. Dogs play; at night, the church and the square are dimly lit, and there are many barbecues and various food choices around the street. Look for locals to visit and enjoy the food. It is very convenient to live in the scenic spot; Hotel service: 8:00 early flight to the hotel, handsome guys chat for a while, help us to stay directly. Very enthusiastic. Hotel soft service is 5 star quality; the hotel has 2 free bicycles, and interested friends can cycle around Sofia Square. Hardware facilities: The rooms are not large. For those who are used to large-sized luxury houses, they should be mentally prepared in advance. It is difficult to expect large rooms in the old European city. The room area is in line with our expectations. The interior is equipped with fine details and various services, belonging to the boutique hotel. Breakfast: more abundant, there are questions about the degree of omelette and coffee juice, the service is 5 stars. During the period, there were lonely boasting people who performed similar rotating dance music. The next day, considering the need to go to the Grand Bazaar to facilitate the peninsula of another hotel in AJW, it turned out to be a mistake and should stay in the hotel for another night. AJWa is twice as expensive. In the vicinity of the Grand Bazaar, the interior decoration is luxurious, but it needs a very steep slope. It is very hard. It is a wholesaler of shoes. It is a bit messy at night. It is still a little worried to walk back to the alley of the hotel. .

Sultan Ahmed Mosque
We stayed in the Ottoman Hotel Imperial, an idyllic hotel, right alongside Aya Sofya, what could be more romantic! The staff were really helpful, especially the manager, Mr Serdar. We were recommended by the brothers Hasan and Ugur Karaca, from Heritage Nomadic Art store, underneath. All in all the trip was a success, good hotel and wonderful gifts in the store below!

Elasophia Hotel
4.1/515 Reviews
Sultan Ahmed Mosque
Excellent location of the hotel! Near all the shrine of the old city: Aya Sofia, Blue Mosque, Bazilica Town, TOPKAPI Palace with the park, St. Irina, archaeological museum, near Bosphorus. Many delicious cafes, restaurants, sweets, carpets, clothing and ornaments, three stops by tram GRAND BAZAAR (7 minutes walk). Eat and dinner in cafes and restaurants where locals sit, even if it is a small cafe on 4 tables. It will be cozy and delicious.
Minel Hotel

Sultan Ahmed Mosque
Ездила с мужем и ребёнком 4 лет в феврале. Жили в 3х местном номере. В номере очень тепло, горячая вода, чистая постель, полотенца. Хорошие матрас, подушки. Сам номер чистый, ухоженный, но старенький, сантехника тоже течёт местами. Но это не мешало. Была уборка каждый день, полотенца также меняли. Очень приветливый и отзывчивый администратор. Завтраки однообразные, но сытные (яйца, овощи, хлопья, кофе/чай, печенье), дополнительно были блинчики, булочки. По просьбе делали омлет. В целом спокойно и тихо, но звукоизоляция оставляет желать лучшего. Но так как сам отель находится внутри переулка, сильных шумов не было. Местоположение 10/10! В общем, так как отель нужен был только для сна, это отличный вариант.
Zeynep Sultan Hotel

Sultan Ahmed Mosque
we are finishing our one week stay in Istanbul and we are happy for choosing the Zeynep sultan hotel. It's in a perfect location: a few steps from Gülhane tram stop and nice Gülhane park. From the hotel terrace you can see minarets of Hagia Sophia:) The Hagia Sophia itself is really near:) But the most important thing is the hospitality of the hotel staff! Teşekkür ederiz !
