Just returned from 4 night stay at the Rast Hotel. Excellent position for site seeing. Pleasant staff. Very good breakfast. If you are considering a stay in Instabul this is the hotel for you! If I return to Instanbul I would not consider looking for any other hotel as I am sure nowhere could better the Rast.

From arrival to departure, customer service was always top priority. The terrace view for breakfast and dinner is breathtaking and coupled with the friendly and efficient staff, the Rast Hotel can be... More

We stayed at the Rast hotel for 3 nights. It is centrally located in the old town area (near the Blue Mosque) and only 100m from the nearest tram stop. There are many restaurants near by and many sightseeing places are within a walking distance or easily accessible by tram. Breakfast at the terrace at the top of the building... More
