Not hard to see why this see why this hotel was number one on TA. Old world charm with modern facilities perfectly located amongst cafes and tourist icons. The Blue Mosque is at your doorstep and the many bizars just down the road. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. My room was decked out in classic design and... More

A lovbely Hotel, in the older part of the city, close to all attractions. Low key but excellent service from ALL the staff, but particular praise for the evening staff who were gracious and kind throughout the stay. A lovely room, beautifully maintained. All-in-all, an excellent Hotel

This is a nice boutique hotel in the old part of Istanbul. It is in a great location within walking distance to all the major sites. We had the large executive room in the first floor which was very nice. The views on the roof top bar are very nice. The service was very good and attentive.

We decided on this hotel after reading some excellent reviews on TripAdvisor. We weren't disappointed. The location is great - only a 5 minute walk from all the Sultanahmet attractions but in a fairly quiet corner at the end of a street with some decent bars and restaurants. The hotel itself is spotless and beautifully decorated. The staff can't do... More

There are so many hotels to choose from in Istanbul, so it is a real challenge to find a good one. If you are looking for somewhere close to the sights, AND with character, this is a very good option. The Darussaade is a historic, 19th century wooden konak that has been tastefully converted into a boutique hotel. It is... More

Very good value, comfortable rooms, great breakfast, and everything works! The staff-- Omar, Attila, Mesut, and everyone--are wonderful! Location is unbeatable too, walking distance to all the Sultanamet sights & even to the Grand Bazaar. I really felt totally at home here.

A friend and I stayed in this hotel recently. I was very impressed with the decoration of the rooms which made me feel like staying in an old Ottoman palace. The location is absolutely great, only short walk away from Topkapi palace, Hagia Sophia blue Mosque and many others... With their friendly staff, clean rooms, great location and affordable prices,... More
