Sultanahmet Luxury Accommodation

Very close to the main attractions in Istanbul

Perfect location for exploring the old town area. There are many dining options within walking distance and a bazaar is across the street. We loved our room (201) facing the Blue Mosque. It has a comfortable king bed and other seating areas as well. While the staff was efficient, we found the front desk high pressure sales to book a guide off-putting and frustrating. The man actually booked a guide for us just because we asked about pricing and then phoned our room relentlessly. We never confirmed we wanted to book a guide but he did it anyway and then tried to make us pay for the guide even though we had booked our own tour for the day. My recommendation is to give a firm NO and dont ask questions.

This was the best hotel that we found during our stay. It was conveniently located behind Hagia Sophia, so traveling around that part and Grand Bazaar was easy. The staff are friendly and give you great advice on sightseeing options. We took their advice on sunset Bosphorus cruise and that was the best. Breakfast was phenomenal along with their front desk staff, chefs, and housekeepers. I would stay in Hotel Amira again.
