Fantastic location in Sultanahmet - a stones throw from the Topkapi Palace and mosques. For a short stay and easy walking, Side Hotel was a great choice. The team there were so nice and helpful - lugging my v heavy bag up the stairs was a kind gesture! Rooms were simple and comfortable, and since most time was spent exploring, they serve the purpose.

Location is perfect!!. It’s a step away from Hagia Sofia and the blue mosque. The tramway and the subway are also accessible from the hotel. It’s right opposite the popular seven Hills restaurant. The staff members are friendly and helpful. They kept my luggage in storage for free as well when I traveled to another city . I highly recommend this hotel.

The room was clean and compact. The front desk service was excellent, they spoke a little Chinese, and the location was excellent, with Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, the Old Palace, and the core area of the scenic area just outside.

I stayed in this hotel for several days in Istanbul. The owner and customer service were very enthusiastic. They upgraded our room and took special care of the room. The top floor of the hotel is the restaurant for breakfast. I really like the breakfast here. Although it is the same food every day, it still feels very good. The interior of the hotel is also very Turkish style. The bedding and bathroom are very clean. The most important thing is that this hotel is in the city center, very close to important attractions, convenient for travel, no need to take a car, you can go to these attractions on foot. If I have the opportunity to go to Istanbul, I will stay in this hotel again. I will also recommend it to my friends.

Although the rooms are a bit dated, they are clean and the beds comfortable. We chose it because of the location (walking distance to Hagia Sophia and Sultanahmet Mosque). Apart from the constant noise of the generator during the night due to power cuts, we did not experience any problems. The staff is friendly and helpful.

The hotel is in a good location, and the attractions are within walking distance. Because it is an old building, the hotel room is small and there is no elevator, but it is still relatively clean. The hotel staff is very enthusiastic and worth recommending

The room was warm, but dark, there was no table, only one chair for three people. There was no shower gel or body cream. The building is a bit old.

The location of the hotel is first-class, just 500 meters to the Blue Roof, Sofia and Water Palace, and there are many restaurants around.
The service staff of the hotel are very enthusiastic. English communication is no problem.
Hotel facilities: old, a lot of impractical furniture, which makes the originally not spacious room look smaller.
Breakfast: It is a pre-packaged set meal, one serving per person, and Turkish coffee will be charged separately. Breakfast is on the roof, but it's definitely not what it looks like in the pictures.

The best thing about the hotel is the location. It's just next to the Blue Mosque. It takes about 3 minutes to walk, and it takes about 6 minutes to walk to the subway station. The service attitude is good, the price is expensive, the breakfast is not good, and the room is relatively small

Very good location. It's very convenient to walk to the cathedral and mosque. The room is very clean and warm. The terrace on the top floor has a beautiful view. The cathedral, the mosque, and the sea are right in front of you. It's amazing! Great breakfast, very friendly staff
