Azade hotel is centrally located in the old city, with welcoming and helpful staff. Rooms are nice and breakfast on the rooftop is great. We love to walk so this was perfect location to take in blue mosque, Taxim square, walk along the Bosporus, and great dining everywhere. Would come back again!

This place is exceptional. I stayed two nights first when I got to Istanbul and it was amazing, the breakfast buffet on the mosques and water view terrace and the hotel rooms are beautiful. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable, hospitable and very helpful. We traveled to other cities in Turkey and when we came back we decided to stay... More

We stayed here for four nights. Couldn't think of a better located hotel--easily within walking distance of most of the tourist spots in Old Istanbul. (Although the area abounds in many hotels) . Breakfast is sumptuous. The hotel does not have a restaurant (or room service). This is rarely a problem though since cafes and restaurants are aplenty all around.... More

Excellent location in old Istanbul. Just blocks from the Blue Mosque. Great restaurants and shops within easy walking distrance. Rooms were small but comfortable and beds were nice. Only minuses - you should not drink the tap water and none other is provided in the room - you need to get your own. It would be nice to have a... More 

No crowds! No lines at the historical attractions! No waiting for a table to dine at any restaurant and sample excellent food. Excellent and alert police presence throughout the country! ...and I did find a superb restaurant serving traditional food outside of Cappadocia named "Obam." Hotels, shops, attractions, and restaurants are very clean and the Turkish people are very professional... More
