Like some other TripAdvisor contributors, I discovered Hotel Sultan Hill in the Rick Steves' Istanbul guidebook. The many positive reviews about the hotel here on TripAdvisor convinced me to book it for my vacation to Istanbul. Reserving the room prior to arrival was easy, with all of my e-mails answered promptly by the hotel staff. Upon arrival, the hotel was... More

This hotel has an amazing location - you are within close walking distance of the Blue Mosque, Haya Sofia, Grand Bazaar, Topkapi Palace. The staff are wonderful, very friendly. The rooms are rather small (and so it the doublebed) but this is an historical area and the hotel is set in an old house so you cannot expert huge suites.... More

We stayed in the hotel for three nights in the very end of March. We were surprised with how close it was to the Blue Mosque: it is literally just around the corner ans some 20 meters more. The room was clean, authentically furnished and moderately small. Although, visiting friends who stayed in other hotels (even the 5-stars ones), I... More

We found this hotel from the Rick Steves book, which got us a 15% discount. The hotel was clean, and the location was great. The Blue Mosque was right across the street, so we heard the call to prayer early each morning (which might bother some people, but we enjoyed it). Free wifi in the room, and breakfast was included.

We'd never been to Istanbul so we lucked out by finding what turned out to be the perfect hotel! Hotel Sultan HIll is perfectly located. It sits on a quiet, picturesque street, but is just a few minutes walk to the Hippodrome, the heart of Sultanahmet. There are so many things to see right there: the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia,... More

I believe I found out about this hotel from a Rick Steves review; it did not disappoint! I was only booked for a 3 day stay at the hotel, however, due to the Icelandic volcano that shut European air traffic down, my trip was extended to approximately 2 weeks. The hotel staff was so incredibly accomodating and made room for... More

If you are a crybaby about room size, don't come here; in fact, don't bother traveling if you are a whiner about that kind of thing. Stay home. This place has LOCATION and coolness. More

My friend and I stayed here for 2 nights and it was very nice. Rooms are quite small and we did have to keep our suitcases on the desk as not enough space otherwise. Breakfast is lovely & the local cheese is delicious. The location is very central, i.e. close to blue mosque but that does mean you get woken... More

This hotel was a nice small boutique hotel. It is in a great location! My room had access to a balcony which is nice! The staff was friendly and pointed out a nice place to eat. The only downsides were they have key based electricity and mine didn't like to work very well. The other is merely the downside of... More

The hotel is small (hotels are in Istanbul unless they are 5-star category. Very clean, Everyone was very accommodating, the gentlemen on the day and night desk were particularly helpful. In some rooms there can be noise due to late arrivals, early departures, but earplugs will take care of such if one is bothered. The rooms are small but all... More
