Sau from United Kingdom (7/10)
Good location, very close to blue mosque and old town. Not on the main street so may be a little bit quiet to walk at night, but didn’t feel dangerous. Room is quite small, but considering the price and the location it is still good value of money. Staff is very helpful. Good breakfast.
Inês from Portugal (8/10)
Everyone was very friendly. We had an early flight and they arranged for our breakfast to be delivered as early as possible for us to take it before the flight.
Judith from United Kingdom (8/10)
Perfect for our city break.
Ireneusz from Poland (8/10)
I got a welcome tea, it was ordinary but when you drink it from a small thin glass you feel like you are in wonderland…
John from United Kingdom (9/10)
Lovely small hotel only a short walk from the bars and restaurants. Very helpful staff who sorted out a taxi back to the airport. Breakfast was included, defo would stay again when back in Istanbul.
Cédric from United States (7/10)
– 5 minutes away on foot from the Blue Mosque and several streets full of restaurants and shops, 7 minutes away from the Hagia Sophia Mosque, 10-12 minutes away from the Topkapi.
– Safe street, even at night.
– Decent breakfast.
– Attentive reception staff: gave us a better room in another building (the "Little Palace Blue") across the street from the Lebon Hotel as some of its rooms seemed to have been renovated recently and with newer furniture.
– They let us keep our luggage in the hotel after checkout time.
Price is right for what you get compared to prices in neighboring hotels, which is why I gave it a score of 7/10.Norliah from Malaysia (8/10)
It’s a small clean hotel and they served breakfast to the guests.
Bianca from Italy (9/10)
Excellent location and good breakfast
Fady from Australia (9/10)
The location is great in a quiet street but just 5 minutes walk to Sultanahmet Square, major attractions, restaurants and tram stop. Serkan, the host, was helpful and kind. The room was small but comfortable.
