The best thing is that it is on the corner of sultanahmed square. It is a small hotel with no more than 10 rooms, without an elevator. Of the days of stay that were more than a week, one day they did not make the room. the hotel is a bit old without much maintenance but clean. there is no front desk attendant.

all you says is not true. Because ıt was your problem you did rezervation and then you wanted the cancellation. You said to me face u face: you lıve in istanbul and there is no hot water in your home you did rezervation here after that hot water came. and ı told we can not cancel without problem. And even you took some drink in restaurant you did not pay. you are not true. Thanks for all.

Sir, The gentlemen at the reception introduce himself as Mustafa, I am sorry for not asking to proof, in other hotels the staff do not lie about their name. I had no issue paying in cash for my stay, its was booked through Hotels.com by my cousin. My cousin has e-mailed the Seven Dreams Hotel and Hotels.com to inform them of it has been paid already. the guest had a copy of my passport and bank card, We have not had any issue in the past and since we have informed the Seven Dreams Hotel and Hotels.com. Your attitude does not justify the method of payments. you were despicable and totally unacceptable, you have ruined our holiday and no one should experience what we have gone through. you are not fit for the job and the management needs to take serious action.

10/10 highly recommend, excellent value for money
Me and my wife stayed for a long weekend during Ramadan. The hotel and attached restaurant, were lovely. The owners could not have been more accommodating even going so far as to give us a brief tour of the area. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the hotel was, as advertised approximately 2-300m from the Hag Sofia and Blue Mosque. Overall we would highly recommend this hotel and its restaurant to anyone.

My first visit ti istanbul to catch a flight back to lax. No elevator was the worst thing the hotel has...but that really wasn't a big deal. The staff was extremely nice. The hotel was quiet. Location was only a block away from it all. Price was fair. I'd recommend this place to a friend.

Close walk to plenty of cultural adventures!
We loved staying at the Seven Dreams Hotel because the team was so friendly and the location was absolutely perfect. The rooms are basic and aren't super fancy, but they are clean. There's definitely some wear & tear, so if you're used to fancy Western hotels, you might be slightly disappointed in the appearance of the room itself, but the truth is, you shouldn't be spending much time in your room anyway! You are paying for location as opposed to make-up ;) The breakfast was large and served to us on top of the roof, which had a gorgeous view. The hotel itself is a short (less than 10 minutes) walk from the Blue Mosque, the Basilica Cistern, plenty of Turkish Baths (Hammam) and Hagia Sophia. Definitely would recommend staying here and plan on coming back!

Great Location
The hotel was in a perfect location in regards to being within a 2 minute walking distance to both Ayasofya and the Blue Mosque. It's in a quite little neighborhood yet lively all through the night so there is plenty to do. The staff was nice and friendly and all went well. The hotel is clean yet it's an older place so it doesn't look the most amazing from the inside.

Location sells it
Really great location. You really get an idea how close you are to Aghia Sophia and the Blue Mosque when the call to prayer at 6am blasts you out of your bed. I would say never having heard it before that although loud, it was a worthwhile experience to hear up close. The only negative is the wooden false floor in the shower. I am not sure about its hygiene value, but it must be difficuklt for the cleaners to clean under and the stagnant water that must get trapped there can put off an unpleasant odour. If it wasnt for that, I would have given the cleanlines at least a 4. The room was very good. Lots of hotels around and plenty of rug salesmen :-)

Very close to all the sites
Close to all the main sites and area is easy to walk around. The mini bar consists of couple sodas, two bottles of water (still and with gas), small ice tray. It was not restocked while we were there for 4 nights. They had a sitting area on the top floor which served fruit and cheese plate and if you get there prior to 10:30a the lady up there will make you an omelet. She fixed two fruit plates and one omelet for the two of us. The room was clean enough for a European hotel and it's small, as most European hotels. They had a wood floor outside the shower and it had water damage which they put a rug over. I didn't notice any room service, maybe it come from their sister hotel, the seven hills, but there was not a room service menu in the room that I could find. The in-room safe is small but it held our passports, wallet and phone chargers. You might be able to find a better hotel, but we were more concerned that it had a balcony. It fit two chairs and you can see them in one if the pictures on line. Since this hotel is in the Sultanahmet there are large speakers all over that are for the call to prayer. You will hear all six per day and they start two hours before sunrise. Every hotel in the area will hear it. We didn't mind since that is part of being in Istanbul!!

Great location, great spot
My husband and I both work for Starwood hotels and were traveling for vacation. Needless to say we tend to be rather picky hotel stayers now, because of our line of work. We thought Seven Dreams met our expectations entirely. The location was perfect as far as proximity to the major sites, but also to the tram and some great dining options. We took advantage of the rooftop terrace (used for breakfast) by picking up some drinks and enjoyed the view and relaxing solitude. Gabriel and Jaheim (sorry if I spelled incorrectly) were both very friendly and helpful. We used taxis too and they were called to the front door of the hotel within minutes. The rooms were modern and showed some wear but we thought it was just fine. We also had the upgraded room with the small balcony which was great for evening people watching. Would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Small hotel, great location.
I visited this hotel in April 2013. It has only 6 rooms which I consider acceptable. The restaurant was being rebuilt and the advertised top-roof tables were unavailable, so I was sent to the Seven Hills hotel for having breackfast. The rooms were refurbished a couple of years ago. The minibar is unlimited on drinks. The hotel does not have complete sleeping comfort since the windows are not 100% noise proof. The Bluemosque is around the corner and twice in the morning the speakers would call for the 'salah' as loud as possible (like catholic bells). The hotel is strategically located in the Old City area.

Good choice, but not (yet) boutique hotel
+ Perfect location in Sultanahmed, only 5 min walk to main sites - and many restaurants and cafes just around the corner + Modern design of rooms (although rather simple material and already signs of usage) + Very spacious bathroom + AirCo/heater worked well - Lots of dust in the room; but bathroom and sheets very clean - Some signs of usage that could easily be fixed (loose boards, missing doornob at shower, dripping water fountain)

A wonderful boutique hotel in Sultanhamet
7 Dreams Hotel was amazing. The rooms were exactly as pictured on the website. The were very clean and modern. The bed was one of the most confortable beds i've ever slept on. The glass shower was huge with a rain drop shower head and tons of hot water and pressure. The location of the hotel is perfect, as it is only 5 minutes walk to the centre of Sultanhamet but located on a quiet side street. The rooftop terrace has spectacular views. The hotel restaurant was closed, but alternative arrangements were made with the sister hotel next store (food was great). The best part of the whole experience was the hotel staff, especially Mehmit. He helped us constantly and treated us to wine at night and great conversation. Amazing place to stay.

Hello dear other guest, we are sure we trying so hard and best for our hotel guest. Our very important rule is our guest stay happy here. That was about us. If we explain why they leave us 2 points because some guest make reservations for 2 and then when they arrive they’re 3 also they wanted extra bed blankets breakfast we said okey but when we try to said you have to pay for it, they get mad and they don’t want anymore. Because they try to make a free reservation for one person. And then they go back leave bad point. Thank you.
