Positive: good location, price ok, nice street, nice rooms, renovated, airport-shuttle (not free if the booking was not made directly on the hotels website), very friendly man who is on charge of the breakfast-room, men at the front-desk not always very winning (sort of an general nature of all men in Istanbul-gastronomy oder -hotellery, but always helpful. Negativ: Room 204... More

I stayed at the Sarnic Hotel recently with my parents and sister. We found the hotel staff to be very polite and helpful. The hotel is really well located, just a few minutes walk away from the Blue Mosque and all the attractions of Sultanahmet. We had two rooms, both on the 2nd floor of the hotel, which was a... More

I just returned from 8 days at the Hotel Sarnic with my elderly parents, having left my wife and kids at home (school). The hotel was definitely one of the more reasonably priced hotels in the area and Mehmet the hotel manager had arranged for a car to pick us up from the airport. The driver was waiting for us...

The location is FANTASTIC! I was travelling alone, and many of the major attractions that I wanted to see in my only 4 days were within easy walking distance. The staff - fantastic. Very helpful, down to accurate info for taxi amounts and Turkish Bath experiences (again, as a lone female travelling, very helpful). The cooking class was amazing. Rooms... More

Our first impression of the Hotel upon exiting our taxi was disappointing in comparison to the Internet photos we had viewed. However, once we opened the door this changed completely! Cozy, warm lobby. Incredible staff who could not be more accommodating! Very clean nice sized room. Lovely breakfast included in a lovely sunlit restaurant with outdoor courtyard. Location could not... More

If you're looking for a fantastic location on a sensible budget then I really recommend this hotel. It's a five-minute walk to the Blue Mosque and Haghia Sofia and everything within the old city is in easy walking distance for a reasonably fit adult. There are loads of restaurants, cafes and shops in the area. For those who like to... More

I was a bit worried after some reviews on here, but honestly loved this hotel. It's small and quaint and SO well placed - right behind the blue mosque. We stayed in a twin room in the eaves of the house which actually looked at the mosque. Amazing. Loved hearing the call to prayer each time. The hotel owner is... More

I just came back from 3 nights at the hotel and had an enjoyable experience. The hotel is basic, and the location is fantastic if you want to be in the old town, close to the historic sights. Our room was on the 3rd floor (no lift), and was very small (2 single beds). The beds were not comfortable but... More

In a city full of hotel choices, this is not one to bother with! When I booked the hotel, I inquired about the condition of the rooms. I was assured that they had all been newly renovated. Not true! The carpeting in the hallway was very old, stained and dirty. The ceiling in the room had a very large water... More
