I would strongly recommend the Santefe Hotel. The value is unbeatable but it is also supported by N extremely friendly staff. The room is small but adequate for 2 people who spend most of their time outside visiting or sleeping. The baths are modern and big enough for 2 at the same time. They are many great restaurants and attractions around and it is only a $15 cab ride to almost anywhere. Book there and save your money for tours on the bay of Istanbul. I give the Santefe Hotel a 5 star rating without hesitation.

I had an amazing experience staying at this hotel during my visit to Istanbul. The location is absolutely perfect — nestled in a vibrant area full of life, charming restaurants, and cozy cafés, all beautifully lit up in the evenings. The atmosphere is truly magical, especially at night when the streets come alive with color and energy. The reception staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful from the moment I arrived. They provided detailed information about the area, transport, and things to do, always with a smile. Their hospitality made me feel right at home. I also really appreciated the cleanliness of the hotel. I requested daily cleaning, and the housekeeping team did a fantastic job every single time. The room was always spotless and fresh when I returned from a day out exploring. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for a comfortable, well-located, and friendly place to stay in Istanbul, I highly recommend it. I would definitely come back again!

Amazing service team

It was very nice service from the receptionist CARIB or GARIB. He helped us checking in and get the room before check in hours as we reached earlier. Hotel room was nice and tidy . Enough towels were there and got room service when we asked for it. There was small issue in the toilet but this receptionist guy fixed it instantly. Later on our check out he came on the street to help us negotiate with TAXI as taxis are often do cheat there. Thank you so much
