Sirkeci Mansion

This hotel has the most wonderful staff! My husband has celiac disease and they have gone above and beyond to help him, including giving him a box filled with gluten-free snacks! Perfectly located for tourist activities, nice rooms and with a garden view room you look out at the park! Highly recommend.

Excellent location – the hotel is within a short walking distance of the main attractions, which made sightseeing very convenient. A big advantage is the wellness area with a swimming pool, sauna, and Turkish bath, perfect for relaxing after a busy day. The staff deserve special recognition – they were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. Our stay was truly enjoyable, and we would definitely love to come back.

Wonderful hotel centrally located in the Sultanahmet district with easy to use local transport at the doorstop. The staff is what makes this hotel special - a big shout out to the desk managers Okay and Enver, to Sergan who is on at night and was particularly helpful to me when I got food poisoning. DO NOT eat in the Sultanahmet area - it is expensive and not fresh. I found out the hard way. Plan your day so that you stop in another district for your meals. Verdat, the masseuse, is excellent and well worth treating yourself. Thank you to the entire team!

There isn't enough room for me to describe how wonderful this hotel is. We booked a top-floor room with a very large terrace overlooking Gulhane Park and a quiet street. I did a massage and a turkish bath, and we swam in the pool and sat in the sauna. Breakfast is lavish, and there's afternoon tea and snacks. The room was great. But the very best part is the tours the hotel offers--for free! (for the food tour, you pay a small amount to the desk to cover the eats you get to consume) The hotel manager gives them. The tours of the neighborhood, an actual market (not for tourists) and nearby mosques were the best things we did in Istanbul--he is an incredible human being and a really great guide. Everyone at the hotel is so gracious and helpful. When we wanted sparkling wine and the hotel bar didn't have it, they told us where to buy some and dug up some champagne glasses for us to enjoy on our terrace. Have the hotel arrange your arrival and departure transport--otherwise it's a madhouse at the airport! I really can't say how great this hotel is, and if you stay there, you MUST do some of the tours or cooking classes they offer!

A lovely little hotel tucked away on a quiet street in the very heart of Istanbul. The location is excellent, just a stone throws away from major attractions like Hagia Sophia , Topkapi palace, the blue mosque, the bosporus, etc. It's also right at the heart of the lively historic centre, where all the great eating joints, live performances are. Staff is very friendly and helpful, they went out of their way to accommodate my dietary requirements as a vegan. They also help out with bookings of experiences like Bosporus cruise, luxury hamam, dervish dance.The hotel offers a pool and spa as well. Their free Turkish tea and bagel afternoons are wonderful! The only peeve would be that the bathroom of the room I was in was very small. Otherwise excellent place.
