It's one of the top sites in Istambul in my opinion. I've been there during the week and had a nargila with not more than 6 people sitting around. What a experience, it's just like the time stopped. Price is 13 liras and caj is 2 liras, it's even cheaper than in bars around touristic sites. More

Visited this place during my visit in September 2011. Lots of locals and a few tourists. Nice place to sit and people watch, try a nargile pipe. The staff were very nice and helpful us decide what to try (and how it worked!) Loved the authentic decor couches. Spent 2 hours following a turkish bath. Perfect end of afternoon following... More

In Sultanahmet, as it is a tourism center, everywhere is touristic, restaurants, cafes, hotels, shops. But that place is definitely local. You feel there, you been in Turkey. More
