Location right in the old district. Nothing

The location, the staff and the cleaning.

Close proximity to Hagia Sophia and the view from the terrace

I liked the location as it is few minutes from the main monuments in Sultanahmet area. the breakfast at the rooftop is fantastic, u can enjoy ur Turkish breakfast while observing the ships on the bosphore. Im so happy for the choice i made. Nothing major to mention.

Our stay at the Villa Sofia was fantastic! Location superb, breakfast buffet wonderful and the hotel staff was more than helpful. A special shout-out to Ms. Ferdavs at the front desk who was very informed, welcoming to guests and knowledgeable about Istanbul. In truth she helped make our week there surpass all expectations. We will return to the Villa Sofia!

Fabulous location and the staff were very helpful and friendly!! Loved having breakfast up on the terrace with such great views of the Bosphorus and the Hagia Sofia!! A bit noisy at night with some of the bars going until 1-2am but we were able to change our room and then it was quieter!

Beautiful hotel, amazing and friendly receptionists who made your stay memorable! They also helped us with booking an evening cruise which we enjoyed, and were helpful with anything and everything. I enjoyed my stay there. The rooftop is beautiful. Breakfast varied and yummy. Perfect location close to everything.

The hotel roof top restaurant had an exceptional view, the food was very good and not as expensive as the other places around. Since it is located in the center, there was a lot noise from outside.
-
Wonderful stay as always. 4th time in this hotel, and it's always great. Perfect location, good breakfast, clean room, and very helpful staff. It is very convenient to have a rooftop terrace restaurant in the same building. Next stay definitely same choice.

Nuri and his staff, in particular Ali, were very helpful. They were excellent in the provision of information and to make sure that we had all our needs catered for. The location is superb and the views from the restaurant spectacular.
-
Perfect location to see Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Basillica Cistern.. great places to eat
-
5 min walk to Hagia Sophia. Very helpful Reception staff, accommodated our request to change room. Overall facilities, breakfast etc are passable considering the prime Old City area. One rude male staff at the rooftop restaurant, very disrespectful and argued with customers.
-
Friendly and helpful staff, good breakfast Too noisy on some nights. A better variety of bread and protein at breakfast would be nice.
-
Good location (just 5 min to door of Topkapi and Hagia Sofia), nice view from the window-enclosed breakfast room. Room was a good size. Nice staff at the reception desk. Overall good value. Room decor a little tired (we stayed in 2 hotels at same price point just blocks apart, and this was the lesser quality furnishings of the two). Breakfast was ok - although we were jet lagged and didn’t get up early enough to beat the staff to eating the “prime” food, so possibly better quality for the early bird. A little disappointing that the rooftop restaurant could not be used by hotel patrons’ breakfast, but rather for outside people coming to a separately priced breakfast. I would recommend staying elsewhere and go have a meal at this restaurant one day to get the excellent view. In fact, there are many restaurants in the area with rooftop views.
