Şefkatiye Holidays from £319

Everything was perfect, especially the reception manager. He is the best.

Great experience from arrival to departure. Staff was very kind, generous and helpful. Room was beautiful with plenty of space for myself and 2 kids. Wish we would have been able to spend more than 1 night there. Location was great as well. Thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would stay here again if in Istanbul in the future.

This hotel had an excellent staff and a nice terrace restaurant. The housekeeping staff was excellent and very attentive. Front desk, staff and doorman were always there to help you. The view from the terrace it’s wonderful taking in a lot of of the local landmarks. We stayed here for five days. I really enjoyed it.

My wife and I spent several days here. I like to start out with the good stuff. The location, in old town is great. Walking distance to everything. The hotel. To start, its not a 5 star hotel in any stretch of the imagination. Maybe 3 star at best. Rooms are tiny, nothing fancy here.. No space for any of your personal items in the bathroom on the vanity in the deluxe rooms. switched to a family room (2 beds) and it had much more room.. or as much as you were going to get at this hotel. The rooms were clean. The breakfast was just OK. Nothing special, cold creamy eggs, no sausage, bacon, etc. YES the view is nice! So, in the end, set your expectations down to a 3 star hotel, with some of the smallest rooms you've ever stayed in, and you will be just fine!

It was very nice stay, Staff were helpful, Rooms were luxurious however a bit soundy easy to hear passers or door shutting. And hotel has waterboy whom comes every morning and supplies free drinking bottle water, he knocks every door in floor and if you forget put don’t disturb sign outside door he is with you…..in room early morning. Why? Breakfast: we all liked breakfast, lots of choices almost perfect however they need a bit work on hot buffet section (ie. Scramble eggs, menemen) and also traditional Turkish olives/feta cheese must have good one otherwise don’t display/offer any. We also had dinner in hotel which is ok, price are good too. Taxi is a bit problematic because they kind a price per person so they should have called hotel’s luxury transport (but it is not as driver came with his little son twice whom sits next to him. Assume he has childcare issues ) rather than taxi. For instance yellow cab 300TL for 4 ppl but hotel’s one for same distance for 4 ppl and 2 suitcase 1200TL So we discovered Metro (underground train) near by and quite happy to use it rest of the stay. Metro beats all Istanbul’s traffic / hot weather and very well air conditioned and much more cheaper. Overall it was good stay, as a Turkish person I want them to be better because they easily can
