AJWA Sultanahmet

10/10 Excellent

"It was a very unique small scale grand hotel in the historic center of Istanbul. Beautifully maintained and authentic property. The head concierge Omer was delightful and most accommodating. The staff at the desk and the Bell Captain were polite and gracious. I would recommend their restaurant on the top level."

Seven Hills Palace & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful hotel that is that art of the ancient exterior city wall surrounding the old town. Its terrace has a beautiful view of the Bosphorous waters. It is located just a couple of blocks from Hagia Sophia and all the fabulous sights. The cruise port has is only 1.5 miles away and can easily be reached by Uber. Breakfast at the hotel was delightful serving pastries, meats and cheeses, fruit, eggs, and other assorted foods. The staff was extremely helpful. The rooms are beautiful and spacious. We did not use the spa or bar, but I am sure they were just as good. Definitely would recommend to friends and family. *when we first arrived, the entrance seemed like a little hole in the wall and shady looking, but once we entered it was gorgeous. Again, the entrance is through the ancient city walls and once you realize that, you fall back in time and history."

The staff were friendly and very welcoming. We will definitely stay here again, when we come back."
