Alphonse Hotel

good location, kind staff, alltogether a good deal

Pros: small but good selection, everything was delicious

Cons: the wifi wasn't working properly and cut out for 1-2 hours randomly

Pros: The stuff was very eager to help us and very friendly. The breakfast even if was not in our taste was plenty and we really enjoyed. Also we asked to check in earlier and they agreed to that.

Cons: there were lot of noise in the room as the hotel is in a very busy street, despite our room was in the 3th floor. The wifi.connection also.was weak. The hotel is not very close.to metro.station or bus and we had to walk a lot.

Pros: The hotel was clean and comfortable, the breakfast was excellent and varied, and the location was close to major attractions.

Very good and pleasant stay

Pros: Breakfast was great and staff very friendly ,polite and helpful.Room is exactly as at the photo,small ,but clean and you have all what you need,airport transportation well organized and reliable,communication before arrival also smooth and welcoming

Pros: We had an amazing stay at this hotel in Istanbul! From the moment we arrived, the staff was extremely welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The room was comfortable, and modern, with a super cozy bed that made our nights perfect. Breakfast was plentiful and varied, offering something for everyone. I especially want to highlight the staff’s kindness they always greeted us with a smile and went out of their way to make sure we felt at home. The location is also excellent: close to the main attractions, yet the area is quiet and peaceful. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul!

Cons: Nope

Recommend this without hesitation

Pros: The staff were outstanding. Very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was basic but plentiful and filling. Again, staff were very kind and helpful.. short, but uphill, walk to the Bazaar and tram stop. Good location

Cons: Nothing. Considering the price, I thought it was excellent

Pros: Location is great, The staff was friendly, good breakfast and room was clean.

Not bad at all

Pros: The first impression was spoiled by a destroyed shelf at the entrance and a rubbish towel in the bathroom. After the issue with towels was fixed, I was able to take a second look. The room is small, I would say, a standard Istanbul room, but it has a fridge, a couple of cups, and two tea bags (don't count for their renewal). You can settle in quite nicely. Breakfasts were good, with vegetables, fruit, cookies, eggs, and other items, which is standard for Istanbul. The dining room also offers drinking water that you can take with you to your room. The place is 5-10 minutes from the Grand Bazar, up the hill. If you're comfortable with walking, it's not a problem. But much closer is a T6 stop, Kumkapi, and it'll take you to Sirkeci. There is a lift in the hotel, and you can leave your luggage after checking out and take the last walk around the city.

Cons: The hotel is on the corner of busy streets, and cars keep driving 24/7. For me, a quiet room is critical. I was able to sleep decently only on the second night. I cleaned the room myself and kept it clean without external help. It worked. Finding a hotel was somehow tricky. You need to walk all the way down the hill from the tram station. But I managed it. The sink in the bathroom is the smallest size I've ever seen! You can hardly wash your hands there! Moreover, it is covered with glass, and it doesn't look very nice. Black hairs were everywhere, even on the towels that were supposed to be freshly washed.

Great budget hotel in the heart of Sultanahmet!

Pros: Both main airports in Istanbul are quite a distance out from some of the main areas where some big sights are (Sultanahmet, Eminonu, Galata etc), so once that journey's out the way, this hotel was a short walk (about 20 minutes) from the Veznecıler metro stop, and then for the stay, was a 20-minute walk from places such as Grand Bazaar, Blue Mosque, so in a great location. Check-in was swift and staff were friendly. Room was cleaned every day. Breakfast was a great buffet, with plenty of options. A great bargain too for 4-nights!

Cons: Not a lot really - only slightly marked down as the room had air con, but it didn't seem to cool it down much, so some of the September 20C+ nights were a bit hot and stuffy, and got a bit loud with the window open.

Pros: The hotel was amazing for the price! The staff was very polite and friendly and they help us and with other questions.
