Great place to stay in Istanbul. Very close to the main places that you would want to visit. My second time staying here, in a different apartment, and just as good both times. Staff incredibly helpful. I was a little late arriving and it wasn’t a problem to wait for me to arrive.

In the old quarters and felt we were away to some extent from the tourist trade however that never really happens. the apartment was clean and tidy. Key issue only 20 minutes away on walk from the blue mosque.

I had a pleasant experience staying at Raven Suites! The staff and manager were incredibly helpful and accommodating, always ready to assist with a smile. The room itself was spacious and came with everything I needed, from a comfortable bed to a fully equipped kitchen with a stove, washing machine, and eating utensils. It made my stay feel very homey and convenient.
