Sultan Hostel & Guesthouse

I chose Sultan Hotel & Hostel because it seemed like the least expensive, cleanest place to stay in Sultanahmet. I looked at a lot of other places that were hotels vs hostels, and between the added cost and repeated mentions of bedbugs (I saw several mentions of them, with repeat complaints at multiple locations), I went for Sultan, which had the most consistent ratings for cleanliness. It was as clean as I'd hoped (the cleaning person came through my floor daily), and although my single room was pretty small, it was more than enough for me. The shared WC and shower room were always clean and fine. Additionally, I expected to have some noise and sleep issues while I was there (it was mentioned in multiple complaints), but maybe because I was on the third floor and in my own room, but no outside/partying noise penetrated. I am a light sleeper and slept well, with no need for earplugs.

The staff. They can make a big difference for my stay. They are very helpful and english-speaking. It's so easy to live her. I like that the breakfast are included so I don't have to go anywhere to find it. There are a few work-spaces downstars for digital nomades to! Beds are super. I love them. Warm and cold water!! Very nice area.

First of all the location is superb. A walkable distance to all major ancient attractions, just walk around twice in the daylight, then you understand the area and tram station and local rail stations are nearby.( Not metro). The receptionist is super friendly and always has a helping hand,easy communicable too.the location is on an ancient street with plenty of restaurants and pubs( prices may be high due to its location. They have a cafe attached to the facilities and will get a standard breakfast for free. Value for money facilities and nice location.

Everything was perfect. The room, bed and bathroom amenities were very comfortable, the location is great for a short stay- in the heart of the old town, within the 5 minute walk to major attractions. The stuff was very welcoming and helpful. The stuff speak good English, 2 ladies speak Russian. I shared a room with a nice girl who gave me traveling tips- everything was amazing. There are boat tours leaving from the area. Everything was easy and convenient.

"Staying at Sultan Hostel in Istanbul was an absolute delight! The location couldn't be more perfect, right in the heart of the historic Sultanahmet area, within walking distance of all the major attractions. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, offering great tips on what to see and do in the city. The hostel itself was clean, cozy, and had a wonderful atmosphere, perfect for meeting fellow travelers. I especially loved the attentive front desk staff. Overall, my experience at Sultan Hostel was fantastic, and I can't wait to come back!"
