The room size, the high ceiling, and Interlen’s calmness were all good. The kindness of all the staff helped ease the fatigue of the trip. Those who prepared breakfast and the simple attire and thoughtfulness set the stage for a joyful start to the day.

Great little hotel in a convenient location. Staff was super helpful. Breakfasts were amazing. Mostly keep us going until dinner and the quality was unmatched in any we’ve had for years! Rooms were clean, bed was comfortable. Room was a bit on the small side, but the service and location and BREAKFAST more than made up for it.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay here was enjoyable. Our room was on the smaller side, but it was just 2 of us, so was fine. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean and tidy. The hotel itself is boutique, with not many rooms. Our room was on the ground floor, right in front of the door, but there was no noise or any disturbance. The personal touches were nice also - the welcome sign in reception, the Turkish delight in the room and the friendly note on the bed. The only thing worth noting is that there was no powerpoint in the bathroom, and when I used the hotel hairdryer, it smelt like smoke.

This property is a charming gem. Great location, charming rooms, great roof top deck, superb breakfast and wonderful people. Close to all Istanbul attractions, good restaurants and transportation. Our room was on the small side, but had all we needed, with charming antique accents. Very quiet, since we faced the back. Would definitely return there.

The staff at this hotel were incredibly helpful and kind. The breakfast they serve is amazing (and huge!) with eggs, fruit,pastries and a number of Turkish dishes. Our room was huge and incredibly charming! Bed was very comfortable. They had tea and coffee in the room and a small fridge with drinks and snacks. You could walk from the hotel to ALL of the sites, it’s so well located for sites, restaurants and shopping. I strongly recommend this charming boutique hotel. You will love it! They even took a poloroid of us in the dining room on our last morning for use to keep. So sweet!

Very good location. Walking distance to many major sights and near to restaurants. The area was safe and lively but not loud. Staff were helpful. They arranged a dinner cruise for us one evening and helped us with transportation back to the airport. Their breakfast was very good with fresh cooked eggs, fresh bread and many Turkish salads served with a variety of fruits and cheeses. The rooms, while smaller than I had expected, were very nice, clean and well decorated. The bathroom was stocked with shampoo, conditioner, lotion and a dental kit. Plenty of hot water and were very clean. I would definitely stay here next time. The location alone makes it ideal but the staff and the lovely rooms made it extra special.

Great location in very clean and friendly hotel

Very smart, clean and historic property. Only minutes from Sultanhamet square and tram stop. Lovely bathroom. Bed a bit low and soft for us but thats personal choice. Had suite room. For information there were no welcome drinks or fondue but we got a free sweet every day. There was no Netflix ( unless you had your own password??) No free soft drinks or sweets from minibar, price list displayed! Did not bother us as did not need these freebies but it may annoy some people. View from window poor but no big deal. Very noisy at prayer times but we were next to multiple mosques. Breakfast was massive, much of it uneaten on all tables, so a bit of a waste Lovely towels and bedding. Loads of hot water and toiletries Good air conditionong Well worth the money
