Happy March Hare
A delightful escape.
We were overall pleasantly satisfied with the hotel and our surroundings but were disappointed that the 'Hammam' was under renovation.

Perfect Location
The hotel is located in a quiet spot in the centre of the old city of Istanbul about midway between the Blue Mosque (Sultanahmet) and Grand Bazaar. Best method of arrival is by Metro then tram (T1) from the airport disembarking at Cemberlitas. Recommended.

Great location in old city
Best thing about this hotel is its location. Next door to the Grand Bazaar and 5 min from Blue Mosque, Haja Sophia, Topkapi Palace. No gym or other services to speak of. Overpriced but convenient if you want to be in the area. Took 4 taxis and non new it by name so make sure you have the address and phone number with you.

Very nice, convenient spot in the center of Old City Istanbul
The Hotel Sultanhan is very conveniently located just off the main thoroughfare of Sultanahmet, Istanbul's "old city". The staff are very friendly and helpful and competent. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was good and hot and the room was comfortable with the French door kept open. The location near a tram stop and within easy walking distance of all the major sites was perfect. It is pricey compared to many hotels in this area, but you definitely get what you pay for. I would stay there again.

Buy an "IstanbulKart" the plastic smart card for public transportation at the airport or transport terminal. We put 50 lira on it and used it the whole time for buses, trams, metro and ferry boats which saved us a ton of money on taxis and time not buying separate transit tokens every trip.

A Fine Hotel
Located on a relatively quiet street in the heart of the old city. The hotel is an ideal base for exploring the historic mosques and bazaars. Clean, well appointed rooms, excellent breakfasts on the scenic rooftop terrace. The staff is generous with their time giving directions and making arrangements. We would suggest rooms on the higher floors many of which have views of the Bosperous and are quieter than lower floors.

Great location
Location on small street with no through traffic (one way in and way out) close to all sites in Euro side and tram one block away to travel to other parts of city. Breakfast selection outstanding and staff more attentive than the best US 4 star hotels. Room with heat turned off was still on the warm side . Can't say this was an economic bargain but their was value for dollars paid.

Through out the city are small design boutiques selling metal bowls/jewelry/clothing/turkish towels of superior quality than the Grand Bazaar which is really only good for the experience of sight seeing.

Wonderful Istanbul
The Sultanhan Hotel is well located in Sultanahmet, just a block from the tram stop. The roof dining room offers a wonderful view of the city and the Bosporus. The staff was very pleasant and helpful and arranged pick-up for us at Ataturk Airport. I would certainly stay there again.
