Top Museum of the Ancient Orient Hotel Reviews

Sultanhan Hotel - Special Class

10/10 Excellent

"I had first stayed here in 2007, and again in 2026. Wonderful staff, nice rooms, great breakfast. Very comfortable and the hotel evokes a quiet, elegant earlier time. Beautiful wood carvings instead of run of the mill glass and polished stone and seen in every other hotel these days."

Sura Hagia Sophia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Expand the breakfast area! It was very well supplied but quite crowded."

Demiray Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was really helpful and welcoming 👍👍🙏"

Hotel Saba Sultan

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was friendly and helped with our transfers and tour."

GLK PREMIER Sea Mansion Suites & Spa - Special Class

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the staff and their willingness to help guests. Everyone was very friendly and they made us feel home. Breakfast was traditional and very good. Adding honey combs to breakfast, like other hotels, would have made it much better. The only challenge is that the hotel entrance is towards the bottom on a downhill road. Overall it was a great experience."

Seven Hills Palace & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely indepent hotel. Nicely decorated rooms. Pool (didnt use) and spa (which was lovely to relax in after a full day of exploeing). Some delicious choices at breakfast. Very close (and on a level) to airport bus stop which was handy. Would return."

Armada Istanbul Old City Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is set in the old town, very convenient to the main attraction - the Blue Mosque and take a walk further and you will find yourself in the shopping areas and more places to eat. Be warned, the price of eating out is not cheap! I went to Istanbul many years ago and eating out was an adventure, part of the holiday; now, you will see men outside restaurants, side by side, all trying to get you to go inside and eat their food. It was not a pleasant experience. The food was not particularly good, it certainly did not live up to the photos in their glossy menus! Back to the hotel, it was a great, the staff were all very friendly. Breakfast was the highlight of the day!!! There were so many things to eat. Fresh fruits, wonderful yoghurts, muesli and other cereals, wonderful omelettes, cheese, bacon far too much to mention. It was a feast to last till mid afternoon! Only one issue, the very friendly bellhop, arranged a taxi for us with a negotiated fixed price fare, once in the cab, the driver then said he wanted more than the agreed price. Do not believe anyone, the bellhop wasn't at fault it is just the driver was just greedy. We were in the cab, unable to do anything other than pay up! A nasty end to the holiday. The hotel was full of character, lovely furniture, old pictures and lemon juice, water or sherbet available in the entrance at all times. Loved the hotel, loved the staff and it made a lovely place to relax after a dusty, challenging day sight seeing."

Hotel Arcadia Blue Istanbul

8/10 Good

Sirkeci Mansion
