We had a few days here on a weekend getaway. It is in the Akbiyik which is the street full of hotels and bars down behind the Blue Mosque. The location is good for the Sultanahment area and sitting out on the street does provide some amusement watching the motorists battle with the street and each other. Experience didn't start... More

We just ended an all too short trip to Istanbul with our two young daughters (6 and 9 years old). Staying at this hotel, however, greatly helped in making this short trip one of our most memorable city trips. The location, as mentioned by numerous other reviewers, is fantastic for discovering Istanbul for the first time ... especially with young... More

The location, the wonderful staff and the accommodations at the Acropol suites were just perfect! The location is walking distance to all that Sultanahmet has to offer ( and there is a lot of incredible things to see , do and taste) the Bosporus river is blocks away and so is the Blue Mosque, Grand Bazarre, Egyptian Spice market and...

The hotels location is amazing - 5 min walk to the blue mosque, on a busy street with loads of place to eat and drink. The hotel itself is clean, rooms were of a good size - although if you pay for a balcony you may be disappointed with some of the offerings - we were lucky and had been... More

My wife and I spent a long weekend in Istanbul. When we checked in the hotel was overbooked but we got an offer for one night in the hotel across the street and then an uppgrade for the remaining two nights. We accepted and the hotel the first night (Senatus Hotel) was quite alright. A fresh room facing a little... More

Good location, very clean, generally nice staff & service, small rooms/suites for a 4 **** Best Western, small details missing in rooms (shoes cleaning kit, sewing/reparing kit, hygiene cotton sticks, brushes for the clothes or shoes), inconvenient organized wardrobe (no spaces for blouses, lingerie etc.), poor breakfast (very few options, mostly for natives), poor and unfriendly restaurant (for this reason...

We have just spent 6 nights in total at this wonderful hotel. The staff could not have been more accommodating and the location was great. The Blue Mosque was just minutes away. The only negative was that it did get a little noisy at nights because the street was full of restaurants but after a big day out touring, it... More

We had mixed feelings about this hotel. On the plus side was the great location within walking distance to the old city and plenty of restaurants (& places to buy a carpet), the room was clean and had modern furnishings, the water pressure was great, and there were water views from the back of the 4th floor. On the minus... More

Management on reading my comments were really upset and proceeded to show us various other rooms that we could have had, which actually would have suited us much better. So, a lesson learned, if we had asked for a better/ larger room, they would have obliged. They did offer to change our room, but we declined as it was the... More
