Kaftan Hotel

Central - walking distance from major tourist attractions Seagulls were quite noisy in the morning

It was great value for money and slightly exceeded expectations. After all, it's a hotel in a historic area of Istanbul - it's not going to be a perfect setup. It was clean enough, bed was comfortable, the location in Sultanahmet was perfect for my needs. Good breakfast included as well. These are more notes than things I didn't like, as they didn't bother me much. While it was clean enough for my liking, it could've been a bit cleaner without much effort. There were some smaller old stains on the bedding and I did spot a couple of hair. A minor downside about the provided shower gels & shampoos - while nice that there were tiny bottles that were reused rather than thrown out, they didn't look very appealing so I skipped using them. I think especially the shampoo bottle had shampoo gunk built up around the cap and the liquids were really thick. I skipped using these and just used the provided soap which was packed for single-use. The room was really small as others noticed, but that wasn't an issue for me - I'm only there to sleep, but if you're the person who hangs around there a lot or booking for two people, it's definitely tiny.

A nice small hotel in the heart of the old town in Istanbul The pictures online should be more explicit- I enjoyed my room with big windows and sea view and double room;even the bath has a window!

The location is perfect—a very short walk to the Hagia Sophia, Hippodrome, German Fountain, and the Market.

My experience staying at this hotel was mixed. The room was very small, and the bathroom also, which caused some discomfort. The breakfasts were sparse and not very varied. Additionally, there were trash bins nearby, which made it quite noisy, especially when the garbage trucks came to collect. On the last day of my stay, renovations began in the hotel, adding more noise and inconvenience. However, I would like to note that the staff was very polite and friendly, which somewhat alleviated the negative moments. Overall, if price and location are important - the location to the old city center is actually convenient — you might consider this hotel, but it's important to be aware of its drawbacks.

Great location, helpful staff, delicious breakfast

The location is excellent in a quiet neighborhood just a few minutes walk to the mosques. Room was comfortable. Staff was friendly and professional. Breakfast was great. Nothing.

The breakfast buffet provided good choices and it was plentiful, this room also had amazing views out to the sea. Hotel location is superb, I would stay again just for that. The staff were very helpful nd friendly. Nothing to dislike.

Good breakfast, comfortable beds, great location- in the center, but quiet area

Very good

All was super ??? Nothing

Location couldn’t be better, you can see the Bósforo while having your breakfast in a beautiful dining room! It’s like a living picture. The Blue Mosque is a walking distance. There are restaurants and plenty shops near by. There is cats around everywhere, than could be wonderful for cats lovers, a bit to smelly for me, as I am allergic to a cats. People love them here.

Exceptional

It was great location, small cobble street with cute hotels and restaurants on the street. Very close to everything and very safe area.Reception and breakfast staff were great . Breakfast room had a nice view, breakfast was good . Walls were thin , Did not bother me but might be an issue for light sleepers

Everything was perfect. There were noises coming from the lobby and outside

Kind staff, rich breakfast with both European flavours but also Turkish choices. The room was hot in the right temperature all day and there was hot water to shower Cleaning was okay but could be better Some of the Facilities need a renewal such as the toilet we had. Also the rooms were quite narrow
