Hotel Sari Konak, set in the historic district of Sultanahmet, is a small family owned hotel, taking pride in offering its guests a charming "home away from home" in Istanbul, with many guests returning on a regular basis. The traveller who feels lost in a big hotel can experience the comfort and pleasure of home in such a small scale hotel where guests can establish friendships outside the boundaries of the classic customer relationship.
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Everything about this boutique hotel was perfect. The staff are friendly, kind and attentive. The rooms are clean, comfortable and handsome. The breakfast was exceptional — beautiful well appointed and quaint room with a sweet outdoor space (we were there in February, so a little cold to enjoy, but we could see that in a month or so it would be perfect), but the food was so delicious — fresh fruit, yoghurt, and a huge variety of freshly home-made local specialties. The hotel’s in a perfect location to see the main sights of Istanbul. We highly recommend Sari Konak and look forward to future visits.

The location was great. The staff was friendly and efficient. The room was very clean and comfortable. Great stay and a bargain. They had a lift (which increases accessibility if steps are a problem.) The location was perfect for walking about to sights and there were many restaurents in the area.

I spent one night at Hotel Sari Konak and I wish I'd had more time there! The hotel is well located in the old town area of Sultanahmet. My room was lovely, spotlessly clean with a comfy bed. The buffet breakfast on the roof terrace the next morning was excellent with lots of choice. Last, but definitely not least, the receptionist, Mustafa, was so friendly and helpful e.g. arranging a taxi for me from the airport and recommending a nice cafe for dinner when I arrived. 5*s all around and 100% recommended.

We enjoyed a wonderful stay at the Hotel Sari Konak. The hotel is a short walk from all sorts of restaurants, market shops, the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Little further on are the Topkapi Palace and Basilica Cistern. Everyone mentions how convenient it is to be so centrally located in Sultanahmet, and we agree. We were there for a weekend that brought even more people to Istanbul because of a holiday, and we chose to pass up on the long lines for the mosques that form during the day, opting to see those sites later in the evening since they were so close to the hotel. We also took advantage of the public transportation that was also close to the hotel. Each time you leave, you give your key to the gentleman at the front desk. This gives you a wonderful opportunity to touch base with whomever is there as you return, commenting on your day, your walks, and ask any questions. Our room was a standard double room, which was a good size, with comfortable bed and nice shower/bathroom. There is a small refrigerator in the room and tea/coffee kettle service. Our room was on the third floor, next to the elevator and just down the short walk to take the steps to the rooftop. Even though the hotel was full the days we were there, we never heard anyone in the hallways or heard the elevator running. Wi-Fi service was excellent. The rooftop was a very beautiful and special place to enjoy throughout the day. We went up each morning for the delightful breakfast with excellent service, then would stop there at mid-afternoon for a break from our long walks and touring. There was juice, coffee, tea and cake available at that time. We were also back on the rooftop in the evening to share a bottle of wine, with the moon shining over the water as we looked out to the Asian side of Istanbul, or looked up to the Blue Mosque, lit for the night. We highly recommend this boutique hotel and are so glad that we stayed there our four nights in late June. …

This was a charming, friendly little boutique hotel near the main tourist attractions. The suite rooms are large and light and airy, though the regular rooms are quite small. A great rooftop terrace for breakfast, with spectacular views.
