The hotel is very convenient as accommodation, you can definitely stay with your family and your spouse with your head in peace. My only request from the hotel management. Clean the balconies too. :) Otherwise the rooms and bed were very clean. Thx.

We arrived late at night and it was our first time inTurkey. I expected the hotel to be on a wide street surrounded by lots of other tall buildings instead it was on a small narrow road and didn’t look like it was a hotel and my heart sank !! But after having spent couple of days in the area, we could not have been more fortunate at having selected this hotel. All the historical sites that we wanted to visit were literally walking distance. The hotel staff were really nice and helpful and the hotel was impeccably clean! Would go back and also recommend family and friends to stay there!!

The staff are wonderful and the included breakfast a bonus. The only complaint was fact despite saying it is close to the mosques, it’s important to know the location is very hilly and not suitable for elderly or people with young kids. We spent a lot of money on taxis, to and from more lively areas like Galata.

It was a quiet a welcoming setting. Walking distance to a lot of fun historic places. But most of all, I loved every staff member I met there. I genuinely felt that they cared about me and my family and did everything they could to make our stay a memorable one.

Excellent location, close to all top attractions in Istanbul, very clean, well kept hotel with all basic amenities. The highlight of the hotel is their freshly prepared delicious breakfast buffet every single day and their helpful super friendly staff! I would recommend this hotel to anyone with families. My family totally enjoyed staying at Yilsam! Thank you for the great service and keep up the good work!!

Yilsam sultanahmet hotel is a small boutique hotel about a 10 min walk from blue mosque and 15 mins from Ayasofia. It is well connected to Cemberlitas tram which connects to other stops and stations. Close to the Sokullu camii (the view right outside the window) and the sound of the adhan. Breakfast was fresh every day with regular company from the seagulls (don't sit by the window if you don't like birds!) Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. If you are a light sleeper - I'm afraid the hotel isn't very sound proof you will be able to hear the other guests esp families. Guests with children - there isn't much space for children to run around Lots of restaurants around for lunch and dinner. Recommend the taxi shuttle to airport though pricey but the area has many sloping / hilly roads and it will be difficult to drag luggages. A short stay is sufficient for a touristy time in sultanahmet.
