- Fedina (10/5): Современный отель в старом районе Стамбула - Очень вкусный завтрак. Современное оборудование в номере. Есть лифт. По аналогии со многими отелями в этом районе хотелось, чтобы была общедоступная терраса на крыше с видом на прекрасные окрестности, а не только в номере Люкс.
- Angela (9/5): -
- Cosmina (10/5): - Everything was wonderful!
The staff were amazing, the location perfect, and the hotel so clean and warm.
Breakfast was delicious truly excellent.
It’s also perfectly located, close to all the main tourist attractions.
Everything was just great!
- Hanoo00oof (9/5): -
- Daniel (8/5): - Proche des lieux historiques de la ville comme Hagia Sophia, Mosquée Bleue, Basilique Citerne. Chambres 3e étage avec vue sur la mer. Chambres confortable, modernes avec parquet et belle salle des bains Petit déjeuner turc varié, mais manque d'une bonne omelette et d'un bon expresso, leur café Nescafé n'est juste pas bon.
- Χοτζίαρ Τζενγκίς (8/5): -
- Eloy (8/5): Hotel acogedor en Familia - La ubicación. El desayuno es bastante malo, café bastante malo, chocolate aguado (ambos de la máquina).. con la variedad justita
- Mark (9/5): -

- daniele (8/5): -
- Martha (10/5): - Very good
- Andrew (10/5): - The location was superb, right near the Blue Mosque etc, and loads of restaurants and shops. The sea views from.our very large v-shaped balcony was fantastic. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, including allowing us a late check out. The room was very spacious and well fitted. Nothing. It was terrific.
- Katja (8/5): -
- OTABEK (9/5): - Отличная локация, очен близко к плошади Султанахмед Ванной вода плохо уходит и плохо убираются в номере
- Jay (9/5): Perfectly situated just on the edge of the action. Comfortable old style hotel. Simplicity done very well. -
- Omar (8/5): Not a room with a city view - Felt like the advertising is misleading since only the penthouse rooms have views of the city.
My room was looking into the back of an old building.
Fortunately I was only there one night.
The staff was however superb and made up for it
- Marco (7/5): -
- Hiba (10/5): - Spectacular!
The property is in prime location, close to everything important in sultanahmet area, close to the water (10 minutes walk or less), close to Galata bridge.
Staff are wonderful and a view you can never get enough of! I highly recommend this property if you are in Istanbul to explore this rich and beautiful city!
- Martin (8/5): Schöner Städtetrip - Ideale Lage um die Altstadt zu Fuß zu erkunden. Große Terrasse mit Blick auf‘s Wasser. Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Beleuchtung im Badezimmer (beim Spiegel) könnte besser sein. Obstauswahl beim Frühstück sehr gering.
- Carlo (10/5): - Hotel is conveniently located just minutes walking to Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, Hippodrome etc. Balcony room had beautiful view of The Sea. Staff is very attentive and friendly. Particularly like to mention Cafre for his efforts.
- Mark (10/5): - By
- Yusuf (6/5): - The room was spacious and clean, and the hotel is in a convenient area. But the customer service in the hotel was not great. The receptionists don’t talk or welcome you much, the main entrance of the hotel was locked once because the receptionist had gone somewhere. Also the AC in the room can only be turned on if you call the reception and ask them to turn it on in your room. Breakfast options was were very limited.
- Sharbani (10/5): - Lovely view and a beautiful room. Friendly and helpful staff. We would stay here again if we could
- ashma (8/5): - Staff were friendly and the location is ideal for those looking to stay near the mosques. Breakfast options were quite limited
- Mustafa Hassan Adam (9/5): All key attractions, terraces and viewing spots within 1-10 mins walk. Reasonable prices compared to other hotels in the - The room had a spacious balcony with sea view. I am happy I picked this hotel and not Four Seasons which is a 10 seconds walk away and almost quadruple the price for no different view nor proximity to key tourist sites.
Staff was great and helpful even recommended me to nearby laundry service to avoid hotel service prices. All in all positive experience. Not much.
- Faruk (10/5): - Nice and clean. In the middle of all historical places
- Andrea (7/5): - l'hotel si trova in un ottima posizione nel pieno centro di Isambul e comodo alle principali attrazioni nel suo complesso si tratta di una struttura semplice, la sala colazione nel seminterrato era appena sufficiente per location e servizio
- Donald (10/5): - People were friendly and helpful.... It's close to major places of interest... Chwas comfortable
- Florencia (10/5): - La ubicación y el trato del personal El baño podría estar un poco más limpio , sacando eso la habitación estaba muy bien
- habib (9/5): -
- Sadig (8/5): -
- Shahid (10/5): - Excellent all round
- Tim (10/5): Perfect location for walking to Istanbul's main sites - Fantastic location for walking to Istanbul's main sites. Staff were friendly and helpful. Lots of good bars and restaurants nearby. The immediate foreground of the room view is a development site but beyond is the Bosphorus so just look above your eye line!
- Jad (10/5): - The staff at Biz Cevahir hotel was exceptional! They were very helpful and took care of any request we had. The rooms are very clean and having breakfast included was perfect!
The hotel location is in the middle of Old City at a walkable distance from major monuments, dining options and tram station. I highly recommend staying at this hotel anytime you're visiting Istanbul.
Thank you all!
- YOLANDA (10/5): Amazing location - The staff at this hotel was amazing; very helpful whenever I approached them with a question. Clean rooms and the décor was very inviting. The location is also the best. It’s a 5 mins walk to many of the must-see sites in Sultanahmet.

Please provide free water on daily basis not only on the day of check in as that’s the norm in Istanbul
- Sarah (10/5): - Fabulous location. Helpful and pleasant staff, Mustafa at reception was helpful. Jaafar is friendly and helpful. The staff is friendly and we got to sightsee and also managed to take breaks in the middle of the day, thanks to the excellent hotel location close to the tram and the attractions. Loads of food options nearby. I recommend the hotel. The rooms have good insulation to noise, call to prayer can be heard but not too loud. I would book here again.

- Stuart (8/5): Good location - A 2 x day trip in Istanbul, this hotel had a great location to one of the main squares.
Reception staff very helpful for Information
Very clean hotel and the shower was great
The bed wasn’t very comfy and quite small. It was a single to be fair.
Breakfast was okay, but not amazing.
Would definitely stay here again. Value for money, good staff and location being the main reasons.
Please be aware of the restaurants and bars around the area. Definitely out to charge an inflated price if they can get away with it, which is a shame.
- Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sabine (10/5): - Excellent stay
- Maria (8/5): Lively - Pillows very hard and hearing Aircon not very reliable so was pretty cold at night

- Shifa (8/5): Id stay here for the location. - The location of the hotel was fabulous. Just 4 mins walk to Blue mosque. The room was spacious. The bed was extremely small. The ac wasnt working the room was very warm. And the staff did not borther to check even after complaining. My son accidentally dropped a glass piece, and they charged me 40€ for it which im sure wasnt even the cost of it.

- Gem (10/5): - We had an incredible time at the Biz Cevahir Hotel in Sultanahmet. This is a great, safe location to discover the historic city and close to hundreds of dining options.
The staff were all extremely friendly, bilingual (at a minimum) and the breakfast was fantastic.
I would highly recommend and would go back without hesitation.

- Elif (6/5): - Overall it’s a good hotel. Close to the tram and central. Only issue is breakfast - the food could be fresher.
- Mohammed Nabeel (8/5): - Excellent location and staff. Very well maintained.
My only issue was they placed dirty towels twice (most likely on accident?) and that the breakfast wasn’t the best.

He made sure our taxi was booked for the airport the next day, gave us directions to where we wanted to go and suggested a few lovely places to dine at. The property itself is very clean and well maintained, located in a beautiful picturous area with lots of restaurant options and easily walkable to most of the tourist areas. I genuinely wish we had more time to stay there for longer but I'm sure we'd come back very soon. Highly recommend this lovely hotel.
