Saratoga Hotel Sultanahmet

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home from the moment I arrived. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-prepared, and the room service was prompt and excellent. The free breakfast was a delightful bonus, with a great variety of fresh and delicious options to start the day perfectly."

When I arrived I was immediately upgraded to a lovely en-suite room on the ground floor. The location was excellent . Near by restaurants and cafes. Also close by the tram metro system brilliant for getting around Istanbul. Couldn’t have chosen a better hotel. Great value for money.

awesome location lovely courtyard setting for breakfast

Amazing location, great hotel A very nice small hotel with kind and attentive staff. I stayed here for 5 days, and will recommend the hotel to others. It was affordable and is incredibly close to the heart of sultahmet - 3 minutes to the blue mosque! Maybe 6 to Haga Sofia? Bus and team connections nearby, though you might prefer to walk to see the fascinating streets. The hotel is right outside the remaining wall of the Hippodrome - 20 meters away. If you like history this is a big deal, if not it's just a giant ancient stone wall :-D. Breakfast was great, over twenty things to choose from. I have a milk allergy which always limits me of course (there were mouth watering pastries every day that I couldn't eat) but had no problem putting together a new interesting breakfast everyday. Cleaning is prompt and good. I slept in one or the basement room - someone has taken care with the design of the basement room to compensate for the tiny window - the lifting is nicely designed and good. There are signs of wear and tear that have not been taken care of - the bathroom mat was damaged along one side, there was a miss-coloring of the toilet. Personally I like it when things are used and not just thrown away, so I don't mind.

Saratoga Hotel went above and beyond to welcome us, welcoming us in and helping us navigate any and all questions— the staff is super friendly, professional, and personable and helped us book transport, invited us to a special cistern tour, and even helped us broker a new suitcase deal next door—- now that’s service! The room was clean and well-appointed, quiet and comfortable with a great shower. Breakfast is an impressive spread of tasty offerings and myriad coffee and tea options. The location is wildly great— it’s right off the plaza with the obelisks and the Hagia Sofia. Just wonderful! Highly recommend.

Average small hotel. Well Located. Poor breakfast. This is a very average, small hotel that's not well maintained, even though it is clean and tidy. The breakfast is extremely disappointing and very basic. The little fridge in my room didn't work. The aircon is intermittent. The staff are friendly and great. The room is small, but clean. I had the room on the ground floor, next to the reception desk ... 5 meters away!!! The disturbance is significant ... so make sure you don't get these rooms!!
