What guests think

At Saruhan Hotel, travellers repeatedly praise the generous breakfast, the warm, helpful staff, and the convenient, walkable location near Sultanahmet’s sights, alongside generally clean, comfortable rooms and a welcoming, family-run feel.

Many appreciate the rooftop terrace for sea and park views and the chance to enjoy tea and coffee there throughout the day. Rooms can feel dated or small in places, with occasional issues such as softer mattresses, nonworking TVs, or, rarely, ants in lower‑ground units. The neighborhood is hilly with cobblestones, and the walk to public transport can be tiring for some. A practical choice for travelers who prioritize terrace views and value for money.

I had an excellent stay at Hotel Saruhan in Istanbul. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the staff went above and beyond—especially in arranging a fantastic cruise trip. The terrace breakfast was a highlight, with delicious options and stunning views of the city and sea. Perfect location near major attractions and truly outstanding service. Highly recommended!

Situated within a convenient 15-20 minute walking radius of Sultanahmet's main tourist destinations, hotel provides an ideal base for exploring the area. hotel staffs exceptional friendliness and willingness to assist are remarkable. Guests can enjoy a unique dining experience in the breakfast area situated on the top floor, featuring a terrace with stunning views of the sea. The delectable Turkish dishes and complimentary tea and coffee until midnight enhance the overall experience.

The included buffet breakfast in the rooftop terrace was amazing! We especially loved the beet and yogurt salad (just try it!) and the carrot, cabbage and dill salad. Not normally something we'd eat for breakfast but the food and experience was spectacular!! The rooms had a beautiful Turkish feel and look. We enjoyed our cozy room and bed and the service throughout was fantastic 😀

We had a good stay at Saruhan, the breakfast and view from terrace were both amazing. The only drawback is that we were given a below ground floor room, and it was filled with ants once we were settled in and ate some snack/wine.. the ants would gather around our cups and wine bottle and clothes and that was very annoying. It would be nice if were given a room on the upper floors instead as there is a large swing in the bottom floor, just for us in our balcony/garden area but we never used it since there is no privacy there.

Don’t let this little older hotel put you off, it is a gem. The rooms, though older, are spacious and spotless. The staff were amazing the whole stay. You can beat the breakfast, the woman that puts it out works very hard to ensure all leave full. A bonus is the coffee and tea they provide in the breakfast room anytime of day. Would definitely stay there again.

El hotel está a 5-10 min de Ayasofía y Sultanahmed. La situación por este motivo es buena. Pagamos 15 euros por noche extra para tener vistas al mar, y se nos dio una habitación con vistas, pero muy pequeña. Las instalaciones son antiguas, se nota que se ha remodelado a cachos a lo largo del tiempo. El armario no cerraba bien, y el baño necesita una reforma. El desayuno, muy bien. Delante del hotel hay un parque con un bar/restaurante que estafa un poco al personal (buscad comentarios en google).

You must visit this hotel when in Istanbul. It has a great location, the breakfast is so varied and included in the price and the views from the terrace are beautiful. The receptionists are really helpful, kind and nice to speak to. They endured our stay was perfect. The lady that prepares breakfast is lovely too she will make you aware of all the breakfast options she makes and will always ask if you'd like an omelette. We will be coming back soon, thank you for everything!
