Close to Sultanamhet

Pros: It's proximity and friendliness
Cons: Needs a wee bit of an update in decor, but otherwise very clean, warm and friendly
Location: It's in the middle of Divanyolu in Sultanahmet everything is on your door step.
We were there for a flight stopover, we have been in Istanbul many times and knew the location of this hotel. The hotel was great, the staff were great. It didn't let us down at all.

Wonderful group holiday

The Faros city hotel was a ver good hotel for the price we paid. I took 15 people to stay at this hotel. The room are clean and tidy, the bathroom could be better, the ceramic hand basins have cracks, one of our members had an accident while washing his hands, the basin fell through, he had cuts to his hand and feet, please be careful while using it. Apart from that the staffs were very helpful and friendly, the breakfast was wonderful , the location was great, this hotel is central to all the monuments and bazaars. I would go and stay there again without any hesitation and would recommend it anyone.

Brilliant weekend in Istanbul

The hotel is in a perfect location for the Sultan Ahemt and tourist area of Istanbul. Excellent hotel, good value for money and briliant service. Would stay here again.

Good value great location, no frills

This hotel offered good value for money and a very good location for visiting the Old City in Istanbul. We got an upgrade to a suite, but I would consider this to be just an average room. I did not see the standard rooms. There are no normal facilities such as a reception area, residence lounge etc. However a good value restaurant, offering a variety of good quality European style food, is within the hotel. I would recommend this hotel for a 2 or 3 day budget stay, but no more. Restaurant staff were very nice. Tram ran by the front door, under our room, but was not a noise problem and very convenient.

Awesome honeymoon

My husband and I had a lovely first holiday. The hotel was very nice, staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The breakfast buffet had a lot of choices and the 15 meal discount was worth it.The food was very nice. The room was nice spacious and it was cleaned daily. The tram, metro, grand bazar all were walking distance. The amazing blue Mosque was few minutes away. The only downfall was one of the staff recommended booking few deals like princess island and Green Busra through a company, where due to bad weather we didn't get to see what we paid for :-( We still managed to have a lovely time. thank you

City Break success

Excellent service and assistance from all staff involved. Breakfast buffet very good indeed. Location is first class for visitng the major sights on foot. The relatively small number of rooms means that reception staff are able to give you maximum attention when required.

great couple getaway

Problems with the safe but sorted right away Duva not wide enough but sorted next day by giving us another duva Breakfast was good but the same every day but a big choice. Very close for all the main site's. Good for all the main museum and the blue mosque Went to Prince Island well worth the day out a place with no cars only horse and trap plus bikes 6 tl return 60 tl for a good hour on the horse and trap can take 4 persons The Bazar 5 min walk from hotel Trams out side the hotel good way to get around 3 tl does not matter how far you travel Went to the Asia side shopping cheaper there Went to the 4 largest shopping center in europe
