I stayed here only for one night for an overnight transfer, not expecting much other than the hotel near the Blue Mosque, which I failed to visit the last time. It turned out to be that the stay here was the best memory I had in Istanbul - memorable with the help of wonderful Ali the Concierge. I will come back this year, Ali, no matter what! You opened up my mind and rekindled my passion for travel. But of course, I won't forget leaving the key with you next time I come back. Please excuse me for that...

My stay at hotel sultan hill was absolutely amazing. Great staff- especially Ali! I felt safe always, the room was clean and tidy, breakfast was great, and the hotel services were made easy through the team. I would pay any price just to stay here again. Ali if you ever read this, a BIG BIG THANK YOU for an awesome experience. I look forward to staying at this hotel again, and very much look forward to seeing you again. Thanks, M.K.O.

Fabulous location. Unbelievable view of Blue Mosque from rooftop terrace. It is not a five-star hotel, so obviously not modernised and glamorous. Breakfast was great. Staff were friendly and helpful. The rooftop terrace is such an incredible space, but a bit dirty and unkept. It would be easily upgraded with a few potplants and umbrellas :) The breakfast area was lovely with a little outside garden.

A well located property right in the tourist area, around the corner from all the main attractions. Very easy walk to tram transport for access to other parts of the city. Room was adequate but small. Facilities were dated,but in saying this… we weren’t in our room often. Bed was too hard for me. Management were great, so helpful… especially Ali who speaks perfect English…thanks for a lovely couple of days

Good stay~
A quaint lodging in the heart of the old town. It is an old building but very well maintained. Right behind the Blue Mosque. Sofia, the museum, and the T1 stop are very close, so it's convenient. The main square with the obelisk is always guarded by the police so it is safe and very quiet at night. From the roof of this hotel you can see the sea and the roof of the Blue Mosque. The staff are also very friendly. The only downside is that the shower head in the bathroom is fixed, so it's inconvenient to have to wash your hair always.

I stayed for one week at the Sultan Hill Hotel, we were a family of 6 people. I have to say it was one of best hotels I’ve stayed in thus far. The hotel staff were absolutely amazing, friendly and hospitable, especially the owner Ali. The facilities were above expectation, including very good wifi and good cleaning service. Our rooms were cleaned to a very high standard every day and very good air conditioning. We had a tasty complementary breakfast everyday. The best feature is the location of the hotel, it is a 5 minute walk to Hagia Sophia and 10 minutes walk to the Blue Mosque, nearby to the grand bazar. You will be situated at the heart of Istanbul - this is a unbelievable deal for the price !!! Will definitely be visiting again.

Overall a great choice and a great value. The location can't be beat and the owner treats his guests with care and attention. We felt highly welcome and taken care of here. A friendly and helpful night clerk named Atas is a great asset to the team here. The hotel cat is breathtakingly gorgeous and she knows it.

Great hotel near to tourist attractions
The staff are all very polite, helpful and friendly. Nothing was a problem. Very clean hotel, theres no lift, (5 floors) so if you have a problem with stairs then ask for a room on a lower floor. floors didnt particularly bother me however. Price for hotel was very good, very reasonable. Breakfast was tasty and they will make a nce omelette if you wish for a small fee I would definitely stay there again if I visit Istanbul.

I liked the location, close to everything I needed for my stay. Front desk staff spoke English which was so helpful since many people in this city don’t speak English and It was difficult to communicate through out my stay. Staff are very friendly and social. They always great and kind. Breakfast was always good and generous. Building is old and can use updates. There are no elevators and bringing heavy suitcases up the tiny staircase were extremely challenging. There is small fridge in the room but it doesn’t keep anything cold. The wood floors are very rough and need a touch up. The internet was slow and we didn’t have much connection through our stay which was disappointing. Rooms are cleaned well and staff are very nice and hosted us great.

You can't get any closer to the Blue Mosque than this. A short walk puts you right in the Hippodrome. Plenty of food options and shops around. The hosts (and their cats) were wonderful. The rooms are smaller (typical European B&B) but we didn't spend much time in them. Keys get left at the front desk when you leave for the day so be aware of that. No issues with people entering while we were away. Pro tip: Don't let the carpet dealer next door suck you into a conversation.
