Ahmet Efendi Konagi

Can’t fault the staff here, very friendly and helpful. Very good value for money, although my only complaint will be the air conditioning unit in the room was not working (it was pretty warm to sleep and my kids were complaining) However I didn’t ask them to have a look at if as we were out of the room all day and only got back pretty late every evening. Location was very good, won’t cost much in a taxi to go to Suleymaniye area where most of the main attractions were located. But try not to get taxis that are parked and waited for a long time for a customer. If you flagged a taxi by the roadside (which has plenty of taxis passing by) the fares will be 4 times cheaper. And if you’re on a budget, try to go to restaurants that are a bit further away from the touristic areas, learned my lesson when I have to pay almost £60 just for simple breakfast for me and my 2 kids nearby the Blue Mosque! If you’re after spices, nuts, bakalawa, Turkish delights and other souvenirs I would suggest going to the Egyptian Bazaar as The Grand Bazaar is such an overpriced place, although it’s nice to go for the experience and of course there’s more choices there. My kids hated it though, too big, overcrowded and so many people smoking indoors so it’s not pleasant to be there for too long. Overall, my stay at the property was pleasant, and I will go back and stay there if I ever come back to Istanbul 👍

Property is good but wifi is not and also breakfast is very simple and not kids friendly,ladies in kitchen very rude when u ask for water they just said they dont have ....
