The hotel has all the basic amenities you expect from a budget hotel .The location is close to major historical attractions .So i must say it is not bad value for money.However at night they was noise coming from the wall .I complained to the reception but i was told by receptionist that all the hotels nearby have those noises...

Nice, quiet location with a killer step to get into the lobby. As normal a really nice desk clerk. Nice breakfast on the roof. I have only stayed in two Istanbul hotels but compared to our terrible experience with the Antik Ipek/Malabadi scam, this was heaven on earth. The beds were small and some what uncomfortable. More

Also the rooms were nice and the personnel quite ok. the only problem was the the rooms in the front were smaller and no view, but... More

The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is lovely with quite a lot of character. It's not flash or very posh but doesn't pretend to be. All... More

I'm torn between an "average" and a "very good" rating. This hotel definitely had flaws. Some issues with the wireless the first night (but excited to have wireless at a hotel so reasonably priced), electricity went out once, and hot water was missing one water. But as we reported each problem, it was addressed. I liked the front desk staff,... More

We booked the Kaftan hotel based on price and location. The location, an easy walk from the major sites, yet on a very quiet side street, was superb. We stayed 5 nights. The hotel itself is adequate at best. The guys who run the place are nice, helpful enough, but always seemed exhausted and low on energy. The rooms are... More

We decided to book this hotel because it was well located and the reviews weren't bad. We knew that it wouldn't be luxurious but the reviews said that it would be compensated by the kindness and attention of the staff. We stayed at the hotel 4 nigths and it wasn't as good as expected. The tiny room was clean but... More
