- marianacc13 (9/5): Fantástico! - El trato del staff fue excepcional! La ubicación es inigualable, fui con mi familia, reservamos 3 habitaciones del hotel, todas las habitaciones correctas, decoración linda, agradable. El desayuno variado, staff maravilloso nos ayudaron con recomendaciones excelentes de restaurantes y con servicios de taxi.
- Sara (8/5): -
- EDUARDO (8/5): Cumpriu as expectativas. - Hotel bem localizado, próximo das mesquitas, na região histórica, com muitos restaurantes na proximidade. Café da manhã simples, bem básico, mas gostoso. Poderia ter um pouco mais de comodidades e comidas.
- Celia (10/5): - Ubicació excel.lent i vista al Bòsfor. També l'amabilitat del personal
- Magdalena (8/5): -
- zoltan (9/5): -
- Tibor_dr (9/5): Great hotel with superb location. - Superb location. Goof breakfast. Clean room. Cosy beds ! Nice restaurants around. Cats inside the hotel :) Bath tube sliding window needs to be fixed.
- Nicoleta (7/5): Bine - Locatia
Camera spatioasa Mirosul puternic de urina de pisica care ne intampina la intrare. Pentru asta un mare minus.
- Andriana (3/5): -
- Macarena (8/5): Habitacion 403 - Me encanto su ubicación, se observaba limpio Lo que no me gusto de las instalaciones fue que el baño se veía descuidado solo en la parte de la tina, las llaves de la ducha con Sarro,desajustadas y al girarla se desarmaba un poco, la puerta corredera del baño no se deslizaba adecuadamente y se trancaba. Al comienzo me costo poder regular el agua y ducharme. El frigobar de la habitación no enfriaba adecuadamente. El Desayuno estaba bien. Tenia variedad, era estilo Buffet. Solo faltaba que repusieran Pan. Sobre el personal puedo decir que fue amable cuando llegue al Hotel y pude hacer ingreso rápidamente a mi habitación
- Agustin (10/5): You’ll never regret to stay here. 100% recommended. This is a secure place to stay if you looking the best! - The location is perfect. Near all historical buildings. Places clean, staff is amazing! It fells great to stay at acra.
- Magdalena (10/5): -
- Guest (10/5): -
- Campos (9/5): - Location walking to must major atracctions, friendly staff and great restaurants 1 minute away
- Katya Neupokoeva (8/5): - Отличное расположение, удобная кровать, прекрасно спится, тишина, завтрак скромный, но есть все необходимое (хлеб, масло, сыр, вареные яйца, омлет, фрукты, овощи и кофе), персонал всегда готов помочь и пойти навстречу. Черный кот прекрасен! :) Некоторые перебои с напором воды по вечерам, невозможно купить зубные щетки и пасту на ресепшн (в номере нет гигиенического набора), простыня была с дыркой и в номере не было тапочек (пришлось ходить на ресепшн)
- Petra (10/5): -
- Anastasiia (9/5): -
- Ангелина (9/5): - Персонал приветливый. готов был прийти на помощь в любой момент
- Maria (7/5): - Очень хорошее размещение, близко к остановке трамвая, близко до всех достопримечательностей. Персонал приятный, очень вежливый. В марте в номере было невозможно холодно, приходилось постоянно включать кондиционер на обогрев. В ванной и туалете невозможно находиться, так холодно.
В душе то нормальный напор, то еле идет вода.
Завтраки так себе, разнообразия особого нет, много жирного (картошка, луковые кольца фри, картофельные палочки в панировке), десерты несъедобные, кофе порошковый в кофемашине.
Белье не меняли ни разу за 5 дней, полотенца только если скинуть их на пол.
Мы попали в Рамадан, из окон с 5.45 утра слышны пения, звукоизоляции 0.
- Ali (10/5): -
- 嘉树 (8/5): - Sea view room, can feed seagulls:) Breakfast, didn’t meet basic food safety standards
- KONSTANTIN (10/5): - Приятный персонал. Отличный вид с балкона на Босфор. Хороший, разнообразный завтрак. Отель в историческом центре, удобно добираться до достопримечательностей.
- Dygku Nurul Atirah (10/5): -
- Людмила (9/5): - Шикарный вид на море из окон номера, крик чаек по утрам. Это непередаваемо. Отзывчивый персонал на ресепшн. Всегда улыбчивые горничные. Завтрак хотелось бы поразнообразнее.

- Anuja (10/5): -
- Alexander (10/5): - prime location, good value for money
- INGRID (4/5): Hotel is zijn score helemaal niet waard, eerder een 2 op 5 - kamers waren proper, matras versleten en badkamer aan vernieuwing toe ontbijt was een grote tegenvaller.
klein buffet en we verlangen niet veel maar dit was ondermaats.
- travel agency (10/5): -
- Aishah (9/5): Lovely hotel, excellent location and friendly staff. - We really enjoyed our stay at Acra hotel! The location was fantastic, close to the main tourist sites i.e. the Blue Mosque, topkapi place and Hagia Sophia within minutes walking distance, but without the noise and hustle and bustle of the busy streets. The hotel was clean and cosy, traditional and simple and felt homely. The staff were fantastic, from the front desk staff Younis and Emre (Mert), to the lovely cleaners who were all so helpful and accommodating. We really appreciate that you made our stay comfortable and we will hopefully be staying at the Acra hotel again in the future! Thank you and best wishes, Aishah and the Uddin family :)
- Raymond-Gabriel (10/5): - Am avut o ședere excelentă la Acra Hotel!
Locația este perfectă – aproape de principalele atracții din Istanbul, dar totuși într-o zonă liniștită. Camerele sunt curate și confortabile, iar personalul este extrem de amabil și atent.
Apreciez în mod special faptul că domnul Erdal ne-a ajutat cu parcarea mașinii personale chiar în fața hotelului, fără costuri suplimentare – un gest care ne-a făcut șederea mult mai ușoară.
Recomand cu mare încredere acest hotel și cu siguranță vom reveni!
- Aishah (9/5): -
- Riccardo (8/5): - La posizione e le camere. Personale gentile e disponibile. La colazione . Speravo in una colazione più internazionale. Buoni prodotti ma se non piace quel tipo di cucina non va. Mangiare insalata russa a colazione anche no.
- Frances (9/5): -
- Ramzie (10/5): Very nice and accommodating staff. I would recommend it to everyone - Clean and specious rooms. Very good location, near the restaurants and amenities
- Bahiya (9/5): - Breakfast was good.
Location was good and not bustling in the evening. All in all it was great.
- alessandra (7/5): - Hotel propre simple bien situé Petit déjeuner pas beaucoup de choix et toujours la meme chose
- William (10/5): Great breakfast and location! - The breakfast was amazing! It was delicious with a huge variety. Also the location was ideal. It was right next to the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and the Palace.
- Frances (10/5): Lovely place - Quiet and yet central . Breakfast was hit and miss. Property needs a little maintenance. Had stayed a few times over the years and we could tell things had. It been maintained. Afternoon tea in the foyer was not offer3d as in the past.
- Abir (10/5): Jeg og min familie var på ophold på Acra hotel i sultanahmet og vi var glad for både service og beliggenhed. Jeg vil sik - Jeg kan lide beliggenhed, personale og service var højt
- Sakrettin (8/5): - Das Frühstück ist ziemlich gut. Wir hatten Wassermelonen und Melonen und aber auch andere Früchte zur Auswahl. Rühreier. Habe vergessen zu fragen, ob sie auch Omelette oder Menemen machen würden. Natürlich kostenpflichtig. Die Lage ist sehr gut. Zu Fuss können alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten erreicht werden. Trotzdem ist es ruhig. Man hat uns gesagt, dass alles auf dem Tisch jeden Tag erneuert wird. Nix da. Das Wasser, was sehr wichtig ist, wurde nicht. Tee ect. haben wir eh nicht benützt. Obwohl versprochen, bekamen wir nicht das Zimmer, sondern ein Doppelbettzimmer für zwei Männer. Es ging so einigermassen. Ist aber eine Zumutung. Das 3er Zimmer der Frauen war wunderbar.
- Kataw (9/5): -
- Natalya (8/5): - Понравилось : место, персонал, окружение! Номер тоже отличный!
- Consiglia (8/5): Abbastanza soddisfatta - La posizione il
Personale molto cordiale e disponibile Un po’ trascurato in alcuni dettagli della camera mancavano in camera le ciabatte

- Graham (8/5): The reception was friendly and helpful at checkin. The location was excellent, close to restaurants, 7 mins walk to Hagi - The welcome reception was exceptional, friendly and helpful. The room was large and clean and the hotel was close to restaurants and markets and 7 mins walk away from Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Basilica Cistern None
- Daryl (10/5): Exceptional -
- Robyn (8/5): Overall, a great hotel that met our needs. Try it for yourselves, you won't be disappointed. - The staff were very pleasant and helpful and went out of their way to ensure we had an enjoyable stay.
The location could not have been better. It was very central, close to all the main tourist sites and surrounded by high quality eating places which were inexpensive. The breakfast was an area for improvement. Some staff were very helpful, while others were slow to respond. The food was not always as fresh as possible and if eating late we had to ask for some foods to be replenished. Some staff were just not on the ball. Management was responsive to concerns raised.
- Gary (10/5): A great boutique hotel, perfect for a stay in Sultan Ahmet. - A really lovely boutique hotel in Sultan Ahmet, just a stone’s throw from major attractions. Staff were really nice and welcoming, and keen to assist. Our room was clean and tidy overlooking the Bosphorus tonight Asian side. Nearby restaurants had great food and atmosphere.
- Samerah (8/5): Our stay was great.i would stay here again and recommend to my friends - Friendly staff
Close to attractions and metro line
Nice breakfast
- Farjana (10/5): I would recommend this hotel and won’t mind staying there again. - The location is very good, very close to Blue mosque & Aya Sofia. There are shops and restaurants nearby. The lighting could be better to compete with the other new hotels.
- Catherine (10/5): Exceptional - Helpful staff, excellent facilities. Nice to have a balcony. Felt peaceful even though right in the middle of everything.
- Swinto (8/5): Very good - Bath did not drain, tap on bath leaked whole stay, informed staff no action
Bathroom sink plug mechanism did not work
- Andrew (6/5): Dissappointing - The location is very good and the beds were large and comfortable. We enjoyed the view of the Bosherous. Fundamentally the pictures on Booking.com gave an exaggerated rise view of the reality. Everything is rather run down. Some specifics, room for three rather small and shower room as well. No shelves in wardrobes except one used for extra pillows and one for the safe. We had to ask for an extra suitcase rack so we could live out of that. Safe refused to open on 2 days but was fixed. Lots of dust under the beds. Teabags not always replenished. Breakfast was poor and often both food and hardware were missing or in short supply. The hotplates didn't work so hot food was tepid or cold. Same offerings or minor changes. Interesting to note that the same issues have been occuring for some time.
- Dr (9/5): Superb -
- Gems1234 (10/5): Exceptional - Rooms were exceptionally clean and very spacious. Staff were so helpful, friendly and professional. No problem with wifi. Great choice for breakfast. Within walking distance to all the tourist attractions. No garden although there is an out front table and chairs
- Ramzie (8/5): Very good -
- Midhun (7/5): Staff were very helpful and guided us on how to go around the city. Rooms were clean and neat however bathrooms had bad - Very near to all
attractions. Friendly staff and breakfast was ok Old property which has to renovated immediately

- Suhaib (8/5): Very good -
- Aileen (8/5): Very good -
- Mohammad (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pramod (5/5): bad breakfast and do not book any attractions from the hotel. - Liked the location. Breakfast and attraction booking from the hotel. The guy at the reception sold me cruise package and it was found to be 50-60% more than the market price. Also the cruise he sold was different from the one we were sent to.
- Shafik (10/5): Great hotel and amazing staff. - Staff was good particularly manager Mr. Edal and the staff. They surprised my wife with a cake for her birthday and made it very memorable. Took good care of us. There was a pricing error that I had faced which has to do with Booking.com booking and nothing with the hotel experience.
1. I wondered why I paid euro 105/- when one extra night I booked for euro 80/- . I want booking.com to refund eu 25/- to my credit card.
2. Booking.com did not communicate properly that they just book and place a hold on the reservation and no amount has been charged to my credit card, but instead I was asked to pay at the counter with a different price after getting clarified from the manager.
- Seba (10/5): Perfect stay - Service quality and room management Great location but in busy tourist area
- Asma (8/5): Very good - Excellent location within walking distance to Blue Mosque , Hagia Sophia etc.
The room was clean, the cleaners were friendly and very attentive.

- Touhidol (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mohammad (6/5): Overall good hotel - Clean, traditional, good facilities A few minor repairs were needed in the bathroom which needs attention
- Linsey (10/5): Wonderful! - The room was very nice! The People were super friendly and help us a lot. Also in advance by giving us the option to arrange a taxi for us and private guide.
Location of the hotel was also superb! The breakfast could have been filled quicker. We had to wait for bread and fruit juice
