Outstanding Staff, close to Everything
The staff went out of their way to be helpful and friendly and made sure they knew my name and greeted me whenever I was around. It is a unique hotel in an old renovated space, close to all the main sights of Sultanahmet and transportation. My only qualm is that there was not great sound isolation but that's also a nice way to experience a city as well!

Brillient Hotel Great location and Great Manager
The hotel is in a very good location, close to all of the attractions and the Blue Mosque, very nice terrace with views of Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The Hotel Manager is a very kind person and very helpful. Helped all the way and was available to answer any questions we had. Hotel room was cleaned daily and the rooms are nice and cosy with great views.

Great hotel right in the center of sultanahmed, 3 minutes from Haggia Sophia and Blue Mosque. The hotel is right above several restaurants and shops. The room was clean and very comfortable. The only downside is that there is no elevator, so you must climb up and down a circular stairway down to the reception desk and up to your room. The staff was very courteous and helpful. This hotel offered good value in an excellent location. I would definitely stay here again when I am in Istanbul.

Nice little hotel in great location.
Great little hotel, a bit tricky to find at first (as up a side street off main road) but very close to Cisterns, Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque etc. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. Recommend!

Hotel Kervan, Istanbul
The rooms were clean, well appointed and comfortable. They are situated right in the heart of the Sultan Ahmet area and the view from the roof terrace is of the mosque. The man who runs the hotel is helpful and accommodating. Turkish breakfast at next door Omar bar was amazing. Hotel security was good too. My only complaint was that the lighting in the room was too low - a higher watt bulb is needed. All in all, a wonderful place to stay.

Hayal kırıklığı
Konaklamamız genel olarak kötü geçti. Oda kesinlikle resimlerde lanse edildiği gibi değildi. Balkonlu olduğu belirtilmiş ama balkonsuz bir odada kalmaya mecbur edildik. Otelcilik iğrenç bir sistem olarak kabul etmeme neden oldu. Dürüstlüğün ayaklar altına alındığının sistematik örneğini hotels.com işbirliği ile çok açık görebiliyorsunuz. Bunları sürdürebilen bir yapıdan umutsuz olmak gayet doğal. Açıkçası asla önermeyeceğim bir hoteldir. Lütfen konaklama hizmeti sunanların doğruluklarını gözden geçirin. İnsanlar oraya gidip umduğunu bulmadığı durumlarda hotel yetkilileri ile kavga pozisyonuna düşmek istemiyor. O nedenle haklarını talep edemiyor. Buradan bu yorumları yapıyoruz ama aslolan çözüm olmalı. Böyle kötü ve yanıltıcı konaklama hizmeti verenlere yaptırımınız olmalı. Aksi durumda buna ortak olmakla evrensel hukuka aykırı davranmış olursunuz.

Tam bir fiyasko. İnternet sayfasında gösterilen oda ile verilen oda farklı. Dört kişilik oda alıp üstüste 4 kişi 12 metrekarede yaşadık. Doğru düzgün açıklama bile yapılmadı. Türk turizminin nereye gittiği sunulan hizmetten anlaşılıyor.

Good small hotel next to Hagia Sophia
Small hotel, but very well situated, very close to Hagia Sophia and Sultanahmet. There is no elevator, but the very friendly staff helped us to carry the luggage. Nice room, decorated in kind of Turkish style, and roof terrace with excellent views of Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. Good breakfast, and excellent ratio quality/price. In addition, they arranged us an affordable and very efficient private transfer to the airport.
