Excellent location. Great customer service Yahya was in particular very helpful

I spent a week at Elasophia Hotel in Istanbul with my family, and it was an unforgettable experience. We stayed in a triple room, which was spacious and comfortable. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, always willing to help with anything we needed. Their hospitality truly made us feel at home. The location was perfect! The hotel is conveniently situated near the Hagia Sophia Mosque and the Blue Mosque, making it easy to explore the historic sites. Additionally, it was very easy to access public transport, with the Tram Station just a short walk away. The breakfast was perfect, with a wide variety of delicious options to start the day. The overall atmosphere of the hotel was wonderful, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Elasofya Hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul!

The location is more than perfect if you want to KNOW the old Quarter. I honestly believe I made life time friendships with Rasim, Faisal and Ramazan the most extraordinary hospitality team I have ever met. And I have met many.

Thank you Bora very much, he was very gentle and sweet. I had a very bad day, he really made my heart melt, very friendly staff. Also the location is good.

The location is exceptional, all the major touristic places are less than 3 min walk

Unforgettable Stay at Star Holiday Hotel, Sultanahmet From November 29th to December 5th, 2024, I had the pleasure of staying at Star Holiday Hotel in Sultanahmet, Istanbul. This experience was more than just accommodation—it was a gateway to Istanbul’s historic charm, made perfect by exceptional service and thoughtful hospitality. Unbeatable Location The hotel’s location is a dream for any traveler. Nestled in Sultanahmet, it places you steps away from the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and Topkapi Palace. Waking up to the sounds and sights of Istanbul’s historic heart felt magical. Whether exploring the bustling streets or enjoying a serene evening stroll, everything you need is just a few steps away. Spotless Cleanliness Cleanliness is a top priority here. My room was immaculate every single day, thanks to the meticulous care of Mrs. Sermin, the room cleaner and organizer. Her dedication to maintaining a welcoming space, from fresh linens to perfectly arranged amenities, truly enhanced my stay. Personalized Guest Experience The staff at Star Holiday Hotel goes above and beyond to ensure guests feel valued. Zeyneb, the reservation manager, was exceptionally professional, making the booking process effortless and personalized. Omar at the front desk reception was a highlight of my stay—always cheerful, informative, and ready with thoughtful recommendations that made exploring Istanbul so much easier. The dining experience on the 4th floor was equally remarkable. Irem Sude Şengül and Mehmat greeted every guest with warmth and attentiveness, ensuring breakfast was a pleasant and satisfying start to the day. Their friendly smiles and efficient service made dining feel like a personalized experience, not just a routine meal.

Everything this is my second stay here , the building itself is historic and it’s located in the heart of a historic area , but the main thing I love about this hotel and will make me come back many times more is their staff so helpful , kind and they remember every detail about our preferences in my opinion the best hotel staff in Istanbul

Thanks all staff for the excellent service!! Every day the breakfast very good, Turkish coffee and great tea. In the nights always have tea and coffee in the living room.

The location is very very good. The host excellent. Breakfast was not extensive but sufficient... like how we would have at home... there is a terrace on the rooftop that has a beautiful view ... breathtaking. The Turkish coffee served daily was one of the best I have tasted
