About this place Hotel Turkish House

Hotel Turkish House is a small mainstream hotel in Istanbul's Sultanahmet quarter. Its 4.9 Google rating across about 120 reviews points to attentive, family-style service rather than big-hotel facilities. The street is in the Akbıyık area just downhill from the Blue Mosque, so Hagia Sophia, Topkapı Palace and the Grand Bazaar are all on foot. Sultanahmet is quiet at night; Istanbul's gay bars, mostly around Beyoğlu and Taksim, are a tram and funicular ride away. Note that Pride marches have been banned in Istanbul since 2015 and police attention to LGBTQ gatherings has grown, so keep a low profile in public.

Features

Gay-friendly (straight venue) Air conditioning Card payments accepted Walk-ins welcome Reservation required WiFi Year-round

All staff are very friendly & helpful. I emailed them that my first flight will be delayed for 6 hours & asked them to call my booked transfer about that. They went way beyond & above to help me cancel transfer. I really appreciate it even no one from transfer picked up the call. When we were about to go out, Muslum offered me a card for public transport that I only need to load value & return upon my departure. Fred helped me to order taxi when I had payment method problem with Uber. They all made my trip more enjoyable

I highly recommend this hotel. We stayed here for two nights and it was absolutely wonderful. Everything was very clean and well maintained. Very nice hotel in a beautiful wooden house. The location is good, beautiful neighborhood and close to all the main places. The staff is very nice and helpful. The breakfast is good and the backyard is nice.
