A simple friendly, clean and very convenient place to stay while in Istanbul. Five to ten minutes walk to most of the main attractions and the same to get to the harbour for the ferries. Lovely terrace with an unparallelled view of the Bosphorus and Hagia Sofia. The breakfast (included) was very varied and plentiful.The staff were more than helpful. Should I return to Istanbul, I would certainly stay here again.

4.1/5 Very Good! (876 reviews)

My wife and I will only stay at this hotel when visiting Istanbul. We have stayed at this hotel several times over the years. I have been to other much more expensive hotels but the service in these hotels doesn't compare to the service at Alzer. The staff at the front desk and in the upstairs dining room as well as the cleaning staff have always been very friendly and have done their best to help us. The hotel is literally right across Sultan Ahmet Cami, and so we would simply cross the street for our daily prayers and Jumm'ah. From this hotel, you can walk to Aya Sofia in 4 minutes and to Topkapi easily. A whole line of superb restaurants are less than 5 minutes away. The tram is less than 5 minutes away, and with it you have easy access to all of Istanbul. We are going back to this hotel this fall. We can't wait; this hotel feels like our home away from home, and we have become close friends of the staff.
