A'la Sofia Hotel İstanbul

This hotel was situated in the old city center on the European side of Istabul. The area was clean, safe and provided idea assessibilty to the iconic Blue mosque. The staff was extremely attentive and helpful. The breakfast was lovely, but get there early because if not most hot dishes were cold. For the price, this hotel is worth it. The rooms were humble, but each had a TV with a pretty good selection of international and national news stations. The facility was clean, however there was a slight sent at times from the plumbing, old world water scent. My room was cleaned each day and new linens were provided. Only soap and shampoo were provided, but I did not ask for anything else, there could have been other things provided. They arranged a 30 euro cab for me to the airport on the day of my departure which was super convenient. All and all, for the price, the location and the demeanor of the staff this is definitely a place to consider.

We had a wonderful stay here! The hotel is small but clean and offers fantastic value for money. Emir, in particular, was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to assist us during our stay. We had an issue with our room, but it was resolved the same day with no hassle. The little touches like free water and coffee in the room were much appreciated, and the buffet breakfast exceeded our expectations—it was much better than we anticipated for the price. The 24-hour reception was a great convenience as well. Highly recommend this hotel for a budget-friendly and pleasant stay!

The location is amazing. It's literally a 5 min walk to Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and the Sultanahmet tram stop and probably about 10min to the Grand Bazaar and Egyptian Bazaar. The front desk staff were helpful and always friendly. The bed is made daily, clean towels are provided and bins cleaned out. There are many restaurants and cafes in the area. The hotel itself is located in a more quiet side street so there is hardly any noise from outside. Breakfast in the hotel is very decent. I can definitely recommend this hotel and would gladly stay there again.

The staff was super nice and very helpful with giving directions and went along with all our requests, which is a huge plus. If you are planning to be constantly on the move and only going back to take a shower and a quick sleep and don't care much about noise, then I suppose it is a very good value, as you are pretty much in the heart of the old city.

It was so great and perfect, we had such a good time at this property, they were so kind, welcoming and they helped us with everything we needed. The hotel in near the main attractions, like 10minutes walk. it is also close to the tram line, a fact that helps you explore Istanbul much easier. Breakfast was good as well.☺️ We fell in love with this hotel and with Istanbul🥰Totally recommend!
