Very nice hotel in a perfect location. It does say the rooms are soundproofed but the call to prayer each morning being played outside is very loud and will wake you up early. But a minor point. Overall a very good stay and I would happily stay here again, and recommend to others visiting Istanbul.

DO NOT BOOK — FIND AN ALTERNATIVE. Horrible experience and absolutely not worth the money. The hotel is old, rooms are extremely small and not as described, with mold, tiny bathrooms and sinks, malfunctioning toilets/water, an unreliable elevator, and no real view. The location is terrible—steep, difficult one-way access, and even taxis/vans avoid going there. No breakfast included. Worst of all, gold went missing from one of our family members during our stay. Management was unhelpful and seemed to minimize a very serious situation, leaving us extremely concerned about security and room access. This felt more like an overpriced motel than a hotel. I would have gladly paid another $500 and stayed at a Hilton or another reputable hotel rather than deal with this experience. Save yourself the headache. Do not book. Protect your valuables and find somewhere else.

If you are a Budget Traveler you should definitely consider the Sistina Old City. The hotel is modern, clean and a great value. The staff is very friendly and helpful and clearly well trained. You can arrange a shuttle to/from either airport for the common rate of €50 each way. Check In and Check Out are a breeze no matter what time you arrive. I arrived at 04:00 and the hotel was full. While I dozed in the lobby someone checked out and they had a clean room ready for me at 09:00. My room was small, but not awkwardly so, clean and quite comfortable. The AC works very well and is very quiet. The bathroom is not too small, although at 6’2” 190 (1.9 M, 86 KG) the shower was almost a challenge, but still quite manageable. All of the rooms are going to be quiet as the hotel is on a lightly traveled street. The neighborhood lacks parking so you should check first. The neighborhood is quite nice. Two blocks away there is a street with shops, cafes, food markets and local restaurants. One more block to Ragip Gümüșpala and there excellent coffee houses, restaurants and stores. The main bus terminal is a short walk. The Spice Market and Grand Bazaar are not far away, and the No. 1 Tram that will get you to the mosques is about 20 to 30 minutes. With the nearby bus terminal, tram lines and metro, you can get around easily on public transit. My stay at the Sistina Old City was great and I highly recommend it.

Otel ile ilgili bazı olumlu ve olumsuz deneyimlerim oldu. İlk verilen odam bodrum kattaydı. Oda maalesef çok yoğun sigara kokuyordu, penceresi yoktu ve temizlik açısından da beklentilerimi karşılamadı. Bu nedenle personelle konuştuğumda bana ücretsiz olarak başka bir oda verdiler. Bu konuda anlayış gösterip yardımcı oldukları için kendilerine teşekkür ederim. Yeni odam ilk odaya göre daha iyiydi, ancak burada da bazı eksiklikler vardı. Oda oldukça küçük ve dardı. Zaman zaman gider/kanalizasyon gibi bir koku vardı. Ayrıca odada biraz toz, lekeler ve birkaç saç bulunuyordu. Sigara içilmemesine rağmen odada ve genel olarak sigara kokusunun hissedilmesi de biraz rahatsız ediciydi. Bununla birlikte personelin ilgisi ve güler yüzlülüğü gerçekten çok güzeldi. Her konuda yardımcı olmaya çalıştılar ve kendimi iyi hissetmem için ellerinden geleni yaptılar. Bu nedenle personel konusunda gerçekten memnun kaldım. Genel olarak otelin temizlik, koku ve oda koşulları konusunda biraz daha özen göstermesi gerektiğini düşünüyorum. Personelin ilgisi ve yardımseverliği ise kesinlikle otelin en güzel taraflarından biriydi. Umarım bu geri bildirim gelecekteki misafirlerin deneyimini daha da iyileştirmeye yardımcı olur. ❤️

Otelde konakladığımız süre boyunca gerçekten çok memnun kaldık. Daha ilk andan itibaren otel çalışanlarının ilgisi, nezaketi ve çözüm odaklı yaklaşımı bizi oldukça etkiledi. Her konuda yardımcı olmaya çalışmaları ve güler yüzlü olmaları konaklamamızı çok daha keyifli hale getirdi. Herhangi bir konuda destek istediğimizde hemen ilgilenmeleri gerçekten takdir edilecek bir durumdu. Otelin konumu da bizim için büyük bir avantaj sağladı. Çevresinde çok sayıda mağaza, kafe ve çeşitli işletmeler bulunuyor. Bu sayede ihtiyaç duyduğumuz her şeye çok kolay ulaşabildik. Birçok yere yürüyerek gidebilmek konaklamamızı oldukça rahat ve pratik hale getirdi. Genel olarak hem hizmet kalitesi hem de konumu açısından çok memnun kaldığımız bir konaklama deneyimi yaşadık. Misafirperverlikleri ve ilgileri için tüm otel ekibine teşekkür ederiz. Tekrar aynı bölgede konaklama planımız olursa gönül rahatlığıyla tercih edeceğimiz bir otel.
