The property is small but the owner is awesome and helped us a lot in many ways. Just keep in mind that it’s not for kids but pretty walkable to many famous attractions. Rooms were clean but small; and again the staff were so helpful!
This hotel offers excellent value. Its location on a quiet street along an outer wall of Topkapi Palace is superb for foreign visitors. The owner, Engin, is friendly and helpful, and genuinely wants his customers to enjoy their stay. I loved the ready availability of good coffee and excellent Turkish tea. I can’t say enough good things about Seaway Hotel.
