Staff is really willing to help. They proposed to us what places to visit during our stay at hotel, where to eat, where to exchange money and so on. I would recommend this hotel. Location is great, within walking distance to Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Sarayi, which is a must see when visiting Istanbul.

Location was great. Breakfast buffet plentiful and varied. Staff were very helpful. The owner had only taken over the property a few days before we stayed and all the staff were lovely. They even chased up our laundry for us when it was not delivered back to the hotel by the agreed time 😊

Ayasofia hotel, hotel that deserve to get 5 stars in hospitality of the Manager Mehmet, the crew team in the hotels. Price that you can compare better then others. Location by walk we can reach Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern, Hippodrome and Sultan Ahmed tram station. You can access tram station easily to get to all your destinations like Grand bazaar, Bhosporus, Galata Tower, Fatih Mosque, etc. Merchandise and restaurants are plenty around your walking ways. We highly recommended for the couple, family's or even single to stay here. Thanks Mehmet and Team.- from room 307 and 103- Yudhy and family in abu dhabi.

The room is just nice for a night stay in Istanbul just as a pit stop before travelling to other cities. We arrive early and Mr Jamal let us check in early. The check in was smooth and we were happy with our room. The shower was amazing!
