Very expensive for what you actually get. You're basically paying for the location since everything is old and half-functioning. People's attitude towards service is poor too. Definitely stay in the area, but look for other options within the same price range. This guys charge for tea and don't pour it with a smile.

The Eresin Crown is perfectly located for all the main tourist sights - within 5 minutes of the Blue Mosque and also close to the Haghia Sofya, Topkapi Palace, Grand Bazaar etc. And for further afield the hotel is 5 minutes from the nearest tram stop. Yes, wherever you are in the hotel you will hear the call to prayer... More

This is a small but quaint hotel located in the old part of Istanbul. It's rated as a 5 star but I would say it's more a 4 star hotel when comparing it to 5 stars like a Four Seasons. Having said that, it was a good find with excellent service, comfortable and well appointed rooms with a great roof... More

From the moment we arrived at the hotel until we left the service was exceptional. The staff at reception were very helpful. The hotel was clean, breakfast good. This was a small hotel which made it more intimate. There were helpful guide books in the hotel. Toiletries were replenished every day. Was given a box of chocolates on leaving. Would... More

Located in the "ancient" section of Istanbul, the Eresin Crown is within walking distance of the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, the Hippodrome, etc. and has very good nearby restaurants. Although it is a bit on the pricey side, the location makes it worth the price. The rooms are wonderful and the service excellent. Employees are more than helpful and the... More

Close to all important tourist points of Istanbul, the hotel is located in a quiet street, it´s small and have a friendly service. The only problem: the floor service in the morning, they slammed doors and talked aloud. Breakfast it´s OK. Rooms and bathrooms are clean but don´t look under the beds! Very good price. The curtains don´t close very... More

The hotel itself is located in the heart of the Sultanahmet district of Istanbul. The good of the location - you can walk to any historic attraction in 5-10 minutes, depends from your walking speed. The bad - you hear call prayer at 5 am and it is really loud. Service: excellent. Nothing more i can say. Room: it was... More

We stayed at the Eresin Crown for 5 nights from the 7th April. Such a warm and welcoming Hotel, nothing was too much trouble for the staff who were all without exception polite and friendly. Our room was very comfortable. Would definitely recommend this hotel which was very conveniently situated for The Blue Mosque.

Rooms are a bit dated but service is very good and the hotel is in a great location. Breakfast was average and dinner was excellent. Not sure if we would stay here again but the location can't be beat.
