Our stay in Istanbul was the highlight of a 6 week trip in Europe. We spent a week here in May and found the staff excellent, with friendly assistance for all of our needs and interests. The location of the hotel made it easy to see the sights in historic Sultanahmet and it was a close refuge when we needed... More

I stayed in this hotel with my colleague in feb 13. This hotel is located in the heart of Istanbul, the Sultanahmet area. Blue mosque, Aya Sofia, Museum, Grand Bazar, all are at a walking distance from the hotel. It is a small, clean hotel with beautiful rooms, nicely decorated. There was a very nice sweet scented smell in the... More

One expects to see incredible historical sights when visiting Istanbul; full days of sightseeing and touring around town. By the way, the hotel is a five minute walk to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. You can't beat that. That rich history is made much more memorable and enjoyable when you stay at a place like Sari Konak. The staff... More

I really liked the location of this hotel. Many people said, "Oh, you're staying in the tourist area." Well, yeah, that's what we were. The Sari Konak is located in the Old City in a building that was once, I imagine, a private town home for a wealthy citizen (though for the life of me, I can't find any history)... More
