Şark Çırağan Konak Boutique Hotel

Very nice hotel… Quiet area, within walking distance of all sites in the old city and the museums, a comfortable bed, nice breakfast served in beautiful courtyard. Staff was friendly and helpful.

On two of the three nights, the hot water in the shower was just hot enough to shower with, but it could have been a little hotter.

If you are looking for the han type of accommodation, in the old town, I would recommend this boutique hotel. Just like any accommodation of this type, it is family run, with all windows facing the lovely garden in the yard. It is perfectly safe and clean, which is very important for me as a solo female traveler. The owner is very kind, professional and helpful (we used mobile phone translating services). I left my luggage in the hotel, as I broke my stay in two parts, since I visited other places in the region as well. The breakfast (Turkish style) was abundant and tasty.

I was struggling, at times, with warm water, but it did not bother me much, as it was hot.

A traditional cultural style, like traveling in time.

The location was excellent! And the staff was so kind and helpful!

Large comfortable rooms with a large bathroom. Beds are comfortable and breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Would definitely stay there again

Leaving

Good location. Quiet hidden place. Excellent breakfast.

Fantastic friendly cat

Ok

The accommodation was very authentic and comfy, the enclosed space of the courtyard was very well decorated perfect for relaxing, and the bedroom was comfy, spacious and reflective of the building and city’s history. But I think the best part was the owner who is a very kind man, hospitable and keen on ensuring you are at home and provide help if you need it to get around the city.

That I didn’t decide to stay there earlier.

Very beautiful old building very good maintained. You feel there century… Beautiful garden with fontaine in the middle where delicious breakfast is served. Staff very friendly and helpful- we got good recommendation for traditional night out with good food, songs, dance. We had only 1 night here so not much but really enjoyed our stay.

The cats

I didn’t enjoy at all the hotel. The rooms are old and dirty. Bed linens and carpets are not clean. The service is a bit weird, they really try to treat you as “family”, unfortunately we are guests who paid for a service. We couldn’t sleep for the first night because the receptionist spent the whole evening snoring in front of our room. When we told them they just laughed and served us breakfast by saying “I hope we are forgiven now” even though breakfast was a service we paid for. (Btw the breakfast is not good, not traditional at all). This place is weird. Super expensive, it is actually the most expensive hotel we had to pay for during our trip. 75€ per night for hostel standards. Avoid it
