Ottoman Imperial is a gem. It is a quiet location and easy walking to everything you want to see in Sultanahmet. The staff is some of the most helpful and kind I have encountered. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The Michelin starred restaurant is not to be missed whether you stay or not.

Great, clean, comfortable and spacious room. Very friendly staff. Everything worked in the room. Breakfast was a good spread from traditional Turkish food to English selections. We never got a chance to eat supper there but it was a Michelin award winning restaurant. Prices looked reasonable. Excellent location close to local transport, restaurants, shops and mosques. Would highly recommend.

Best location for seeing the sites!
The hotel staff were all very helpful and accommodating. They even lent us a transit card for the trolley system. The beds were comfortable and the whole property was very clean. You can't beat the location for seeing the sites in Istanbul.
