It is easy to find from Sultanahmet tram stop. Just cross the street to the left (not to the direction of the Blue Mosque) and walk straight until you see signbord to Basilica Cistern. Turn left to Basilica Cistern direction and walk straight down the hill. You'll find the hostel at the end of the junction, exactly in the middle... More

I arrived at the hostel early morning. I was allowed to have my breakfast with the guests even before i check in. Well, i told the owner that the following morning i would have to leave really early for my flight to cappadocia so i deserved to have that breakfast, lol. I met girls from Hong Kong they gave me...

I went to Istanbul with a college class, and we stayed at Cheers for about a week. The breakfasts were delicious, the rooms were clean, and the location is perfect. Just out the bar window you can see the Aya Sofia and nearby are tons of shops and restaurants. The staff was friendly - maybe a little too friendly. Some... More

Cheers Hostel is an amazing hostel with great hosts! Throughout our stay everyone was really helpful and made our stay in Turkey really something to remember! We will be back again! :-) The rooms and bathrooms are clean and tidy. Breakfast is a delicious buffet with all the yummy kinds of Turkish tea you can think of. Beautiful view, and... More

Warmth welcome by Tareeq & the staff. Willingly to help & carry our luggage to the room which has been upgraded to more like a suite. Thanks Tareeq, you're such a funny man. Strategic location, which we can straight away see the Blue Mosque on your lef once we step out from the hotel. Recommended to all.

Really pretty hostel in the heart of Istanbul, it has a good quality-price ratio. I was there in February. Their staff is very, very, very sympathetic and agreeable! The barman was a strange man (in very positive sense! :D ). Classic common life as in every hostel, the atmosphere is hot and pleasant. The hostel has an internet wireless connection... More

We really loved our stay here while visiting Istanbul. The staff was excellent and very helpful. The location was perfect (in the old town) and they really helped us out with the parking situation. Rooms were clean and comfortable. We stayed in the dorm and slept very well and felt very safe. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

We really liked this hostel. The staff is friendly and helpful. You can hear the call to prayer from about 6 mosques from your room, which is eerie and wonderful. The location is central to every old town site you could want to see. If there is anything else you want to see, ask the staff, and they will get... More

This is a VERY centrally located hostel. The staff are very friendly, helpful and happy. Very close to the tram line and centrally located to all the major sites. Warm atmosphere. Great people. Free breakfast and coffee in the morning. And a rooftop bar with an amazing view of Hagia Sofia. Highly recommend.
