Reviews
Margarita from Serbia (10/10)
Our first visit to Istanbul went great, hospitable owners welcomed us and gave good advice on our route. Nice room service, every day cleaning, quiet terrace with a great view. Main sights start in 10 minutes walk.
Andrei_flo from Romania (10/10)
Breakfast – nicely prepared by the owner himself, the room was clean and very big, i got also a free upgrade plus allowed to check in 1 hour earlier, location is also good and safe, so I plan to stay again there when in Istanbul.
Andreea from Romania (10/10)
Ali was very friendly and helped me with everything I needed. I would totaly recommend the hotel for e citybreak in Istanbul. In walking distance from the blue mosque and other important buildings…
Very nice breakfast!Vincenzo from Netherlands (10/10)
We enjoyed very much our stay at Bram Hotel. Although it is a 3 star hotel, the way every little detail is so carefully chosen through the hotel makes you think you are in a 5 star hotel instead. Here you will find excellent staff, very good breakfast, comfortable room (matrasses were very confortable indeed, as mentioned in another review) and great location. In fact, the hotel is within walking distance of the main attractions (Agia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar, etc) and it is surrounded by several very good restaurants.
However, what in our opinion makes this place so special are its owners, brothers Ali and Tarkan. Nothing is too much trouble for them in making sure you enjoy your time in Istanbul.
Thank you Ali and Tarkan to make feel our stay in Istanbul a very unique experience!Roberto from Italy (10/10)
Great hotel with a great owner and a great staff. Everything was perfect.
Mark from United Kingdom (9/10)
The property was situated perfectly in the area of Istanbul for seeing lots of sights on foot including Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. It has been renovated to a great standard and the soundproofing meant that we slept very well. The beds were very comfortable. There is a fabulous roof terrace. The owners were also incredibly helpful, aiding in planning our days and always making sure we had everything we needed from breakfast through to late.
Daryna from Ukraine (10/10)
We had an incredible stay at this hotel again. It was our second stay there, and it seems I'll never book another hotel in Istanbul, only Bram! The owners are truly awesome, making us feel welcome and at home from the moment we arrived. The location is perfect, offering easy access to all the local attractions. Every morning, we looked forward to the delicious and beautifully presented breakfasts. The highlight of our stay was definitely the roof terrace, where we enjoyed breathtaking sunsets with a stunning view. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable and delightful experience!
Kathleen from United States (10/10)
Had an exceptional stay at Bram! The room was very comfortable and clean with blackout curtains, slippers, bottled water and truly smoke-free. The location is great including the sunset view from the roof. The call to prayer was only faintly audible in the room and never woke me up. The breakfast was plentiful with the eggs varied each day. And the owners were welcoming and helpful. It was the ideal choice. Highly recommend!
Paul from United Kingdom (10/10)
The owners were amazing and so helpful with giving us ideas on where to go. Their service was impeccable and they were always so friendly.
Gz from Romania (9/10)
Lovely new hotel – I highly recommend it! It was a pleasant surprise in the Sultanahmet area, where it’s hard to find a good hotel at this price. I loved everything about this place. The room is spacious, the soundproofing on the windows is excellent, everything is clean, and the breakfast is delicious. The beds are so comfortable – just what you need after a day of walking around this amazing city.
They have a café on the ground floor where you can enjoy a great coffee and something sweet, perfect for a relaxing break from the city's hustle and bustle. There's also an incredible rooftop terrace with views of the city and the sea.
The location is ideal for tourists: close to the Hippodrome and the Blue Mosque, with plenty of restaurants nearby. Truly a perfect spot!
The owners are wonderful – incredibly friendly, helpful, and hospitable. They’re always ready to answer your questions and make you feel welcome. Thank you for an amazing experience, Ali and Tarkan! I truly hope I can return to Istanbul and stay at your hotel again next year!
