The Hotel Novano is well located in a pleasant street close to the main tourist areas of Aya Sofia and Topkapi Palace. The room was very comfortable and well decorated, but on the small side and overlooking an 800 year old wall at the back of the hotel. This was not a problem as we were out exploring the city....

This hotel is a 5 minute walk from the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Topaki Palace. We were able to walk to these sights go back and rest and return for sunset pictures. Rooms were very nice, clean, bed was comfortable, breakfast excellent and staff very helpful. They organized tours and airport pickup for us.

We stayed at Novano Hotel for 5 nights in September 2012. Location is excellent, you will be in the heart of Sultanahmet, and will be able to go walking to almost the best attractions: Blue Mosque, Haghia Sofia, Topkapi Palace, Hipodromme, Basilica Cistern. You are also close to the tram, and if you are a good walker, also you can... More

The Hotel is located in a quiet area of Sultanahmet but at the same time very close to many good restaurants. The front desk stuff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast not very fancy but enough. Be aware of the fact that it is a 4 levels building w/o elevator. I really recommend this hotel for your visit in Istanbul... More

It is very nice hotel. AyaSofia and Blue Mosque are in ten minutes walk. Since it is located very close to blue mosque at nights you are waked up by mosque singer at 4:30 or something :) Sound isolation in rooms is not so good, we heard our neighbors quite loud.

I stayed at the Hotel with two friends for three nights in February 2013. The hotel was excellent, the owner, Enver, couldn't do enough to make us welcome. The buffet breakfast was fantastic, plenty of choice and freshly cooked eggs made to your liking. Very well situated within easy walking distance for Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and local transport.

Good wholesome breakfasts. Very friendly concierge Ramazan (sorry this is spelt wrong). Close to all the... More

We spent 1 night in January 2012 and would definitely stay there again. Location ,value for money, clean warm and fluffy white towels were some of its key features. Friendly staff also and the owner speaks good english and was extremely helpful.
